    Imagine buying the fastest accelerating car on the market and being shocked when you rip through tires after endlessly flooring it
  • @shanep.7184
    What you describe about waiting 1-2 years for the price to drop is EXACTLY what Tesla wants you to do. At the beginning of production they can’t make that many so production costs are high but demand is high so they can charge whatever they want. Eventually, production increases, economy of scale takes over, margins improve, demand slows, so price drops. Moral is if you want to be the first to own a new Tesla model, be prepared to stomach insane depreciation because they price cars based purely on supply and demand.
  • Acquiring a stock is easy, but buying the right stock without a time-tested strategy is incredibly hard. Hence what are the best stocks to buy now or put on a watchlist? I’ve been trying to grow my portfolio of $160K for some time now, but my major challenge is not knowing the best entry and exit strategies. I would greatly appreciate any suggestions.
  • @socalnsx
    Surprised a knowledgeable car guy didn’t realize he bought at the highest dealer markup era in modern history due to the supply issues at the time … all the dealerships from every car maker were jacking up their prices… now they can’t give them away
  • @cgmartin333
    I slammed my car on links with no adjustable camber arms and have no clue why im eating up tires 🤦‍♂️ They should recall you.
  • @egs2169
    Rich guy complains that his expensive car depreciated too fast and the tires were out with a 1000hp powertrain😂
  • @user-dx7md2im1z
    Imagine you have this kind of experience with this company and still went ahead to pre-order the first-generation cyber truck. Honestly, as normal sane person, my first thought is either i don't believe his true frustration with his current car experience or this guy is so freaking rich and insane.
  • Does the camber issue remain today? Does the issue apply only to the 19" Tempest wheels? Some online forums claim the issue applies only to the 21" wheels, but they provide no evidence, and camber settings don't care about wheels, right?
  • @alx4571
    In 2021 many cars were going for well over MSRP as dealers added 30%-50% for high demand vehicles. You aren’t comparing unseen dealer markup during that period.
  • @allannguyen1570
    I had to replace the OEM 21 inch tires every 5k miles as well. I downgraded to the 19 inch rims and tires and the inner tire wear problem gone. The 19 inch tires now last more than 20k miles. Unlike the previous 21 inch wheels, which were a staggered configuration, the new 19 inch tires are square configuration so I can rotate them and make them last even longer.

    I'm 63 and I haven't spent $10,000.00 on tires in my WHOLE life. My current car a Ford 2016 Explorer that is an 4WD model with 89,000 + ml and it's still on it factory tires. Here in Miami some people are only getting 700 to a 1000 miles on a set of EV tires. It seems the rubber compound doesn't like the hot Florida roads.
  • @pretread
    Use OEM tires and rims and get your alignment set by Tesla and maintain air pressure as mentioned by manufacture
  • @luke-guitarist
    Also, my philosophy is never buy a new car no matter the company… I should clarify… the amount of depreciation would be similar to a used one (of course there are exceptions). I am not saying everyone should buy a used car instead of new, all I am saying is that in my experience, buy a used car (if the odometer is less than 90,000 miles) can save lots of money… but whatever you do, make sure the used or new car isn’t a lemon
  • @gnosis7662
    I think for Tesla cars it makes more sense to lease. That way you're not stuck with a huge loan in the event of a sudden price drop and can upgrade every few years to the latest model!
  • @alexaalex2434
    Honda & Totoya, less complaints,reliable and enjoy cool ride with no range anxiety! One of my friend has a Toyota 300000 miles with Toyota no major issues. Built To Last! Tesla - I feel you do not save money with gas because you paid all that in one shot to the dealer. 😂
  • @_Bugz1x_
    To summarize, he only has 2 reasons on why you shouldn’t 1. There was an issue with old performance tires that destroyed them, this has since been fixed prior to the publishing of this video so weird to include it. 2. They made it more affordable.
  • this MO is literally in Tesla's master plan/mission statement. Early adopters fund the price drops for the mass market. This is why i can now finally afford a Tesla, so thank you for your service to the greater good
  • @tooterooterville
    I've bought and sold my share of cars for over fifty years, and the one thing I've learned is never rush into any "new" innovative auto design offering especially with the EV craze where we are just beginning to uncover all the cadavers lurking within that system.
  • @WhosRandy564
    Have you tried N2itive’s camber arms ? Considering buying them cause I go through about 2-3 sets of tires a year
