    Kim, you are incredible---and so relatable. No one comes close to showing practical, daily use scenarios of EV's in a manner that is informative and so entertaining. Love seeing PJ and the kids as well. Let's get you to 1million subscribers!
  • Amazing review. I am new to EVs and I admit that I was wrong about EVs. Now, no more combustion engine vehicles anymore👍
  • @marquetryman
    I traded my 2020 Model 3 and my FSD transferred. The new one is awesome. I vote trade and you won’t regret it.
  • @lavectech
    The small price difference plus the extra content you could make with the new model is worth it.
  • @Tom_7979
    You're better at selling Teslas than musk! I want a M3 now
  • @MrJSiQ
    2018 model 3 silver long range 99k miles, fsd, white seats, 19in rims.acc. boost... Tesla's trade in value is 15k
  • @Thunder7ga
    I am in the same situation, with a 2018 a bit over 80k miles on it with FSD. I love this car but I don't see me swapping it out for a while more. Now that I work from home, it only get driven about 2500 miles a year now. Our Model Y the wife drives is our primary car now. So getting a new one, just doesn't make sense at this point. Even for only 5-10k more.

    Anyone looking at a Camry, higher optioned Malibu/Accord/Maxima/Mazda6/VW, ought to spend some time with this Tesla Model 3 variant. As owner of two (soon to be three) Teslas, when I have been in these sedans, decision is clear for Tesla. For the new potential owner of a EV, check this out. Can’t go wrong. Many millions of 3/Y platform already on the road.
  • @MdRDan
    Tesla definitely uses the word highland internally. I found a parts sticker in my new car that said highland on it.
  • @js3085
    It’s a no brainer. You are out of the 4/50 warranty. You will pick up a New warranty AND FREE FSD Transfer! Get over to the Tesla store!
  • Hey just wanted to point out that the new Model 3 RWD you tested only had 9 speakers. The AWD and Performance models come with the 17 speaker setup. All RWD Model 3s according to Tesla website come with the 9 speaker setup. So it's good to hear the base sound system is still good
  • @Accident2688
    what is the wrap on the new 3 called? looks amazing
  • @PH61a
    Got my ultra red RWD with a €2950 incentive for €41000 including 20.000 free kilometers (here in the Netherlands). Ultra red is a €2000 option over here. I built in an auto close for the frunk.
  • @qwazy01
    You counted the FSD twice. In your sale price and also a transfer to the new model. All in all, go for it. Even if the diff is $15-20k, where are you going to get a car equal to the new model 3 for that price, AND how long will you drive it before you can sell it for the price you got it for? Also, come November you may not have the $7500 credit anymore. Pull the trigger and transfer the FSD... thank me later 😊
  • @appleguyla
    Great content as always. At Carvana you were likely browsing as a potential buyer looking at listings. The price listed there isn't the price they will pay to buy it from a seller. Just as KBB's trade in value at around $20k. The dealer would probably sell it at around $23-25k.
  • @aronandreas
    Just love your show Java. Keep on rocing ♥♥♥from Norway
  • @corbett666
    The US prices are so low! In the U.K. the long range costs £50k, that’s $64k!!
  • @MrAliouBah
