I Bought A Tesla Model 3 Performance from Carvana - The Carvana Experience

I personally don’t hate electric cars like mad. I don’t hate them or take it personally. I just don’t like the company in specific because they got a lot of problems. And the reason why you probably got it for what you got it for is because of there reputation. They have gotten such a bad reputation that like Volkswagens they go for next to nothing due to the quality. Like somebody got a Model S Plaid worth 120k for 50k. That has to hurt for the original owner 😂. The only real problem your gonna deal with when it comes to those cars is finding somebody who knows how to fix it besides the dealer. Because they refuse to give the information out to the public for mechanics to use. Even though it’s a fact it’s just my opinion. I’m willing to share my opinion.

I’m not much of a Tesla fan, but she does look good. I was afraid when the lady was backing it of the rollback, that she was going to hit that brick mailbox.

Thanks for all the great content Randy! Don’t listen to the haters keep making these great videos.

To you Randy thanks. Your input about this electric Tesla, was very invaluable to a person that has very little knowledge about an electric vehicle. Once again THANKS 😊

Love it! I have a 2021 Model 3 Performance in Black on Black. Also, yours has the standard autopilot which means it will drive itself within its lane. Enhanced autopilot will do the lane change, but unfortunately isn’t available to buy anymore. If you want FSD, you can do the subscription to try it, but you’ll have to get FSD hardware 3.0 installed first.

last time you owned a tesla it was last year and you came out and told everything that you now saying but I remember that the reason that you sold that car was that you got tired of it and went back to your origin, i believe same thing happens to this one too.

You will save about $300 per month for not having to purchase gasoline. Many people forget another huge advantage is these vehicles are zero-emission. My next vehicle will be the Tesla Model Y (SUV). Congratulations on your new purchase and don't worry about the negative comments. At the end of the day, it's your money and as long as you are happy, that's all it matters.

I’ve never really had good experience with regular dealerships to be honest. I Would like to try out Carvana. I’ve bought 2 cars and sold 3 at Carmax, I absolutely love them.

Looks great ! You’ll love it. I have one in blue - track mode is brutal mode! PS did anyone else worry the delivery lady was going to take out another mailbox 😬 📬

I’ll miss the Hellcat but I love this too , and more practical

Randy you are going to like the technology and craftmanship that has been built into the Tesla. The color is awesome

For a moment there I thought the tow truck fella was going to take out that brick mail box thing with your Tesla.

Mine is one right stalk down click for adaptive cruise, two for self driving and four for that crazy as F cowbell rainbow road mode -I don’t have full self driving. Great car!

I just bought another 9th Gen Impala from Carvana back in August. My experience was thus: 1st, I absolutely love that I was able to peruse the cars and pick out exactly what I wanted FROM MY COUCH!! 2nd, I've never gotten approved for financing in 30 seconds before (and say it with me now: FROM MY COUCH!!) 3rd, they delivered it to my doorstep. Did I overpay? For sure. But the in-house financing terms more than made up for the higher no-haggle price. Now, there were some negatives, which as a person that works on his own cars, can easily overlook. The first thing that was weird was the delivery date got delayed by a week. After delivery, I noticed they didn't divulge every defect in the car (there was a trim screw cover missing, a couple screws by the gas cap missing, an aftermarket tail light that was ill-fitting.) It was all stuff I could live with, and actually enjoy repairing. If it were someone that was nit-picky, I could see sending the car back. They also claimed to do a "professional" detailing, but in actuality, they just flung compound everywhere (the jambs are full of compound slop.) The guy delivering the car was very apologetic and offered to have all of these issues addressed at a repair facility of their choosing (MAACO.) Again, I ended up doing this all myself 'cause I get enjoyment out of it, but I could see a non-enthusiast being pissed off about it. All in all, I rate it a positive experience, but to those who are seeking to go this route, there are plusses and minuses. In my case, not having to set one foot in a dealership and haggle on the price or sit in a finance office for 4 hours sealed it.

Acceleration corresponds to battery charge, so when you tested with 94 miles left on the battery you weren't getting even close to peak acceleration. I hope you noticed a significant different once you charged up. My OCD was also having issues with the zoomed out and rotated visualization. LOL. The blue flashing also wanted you to apply torque to the steering wheel (essentially a warning to make sure you are paying attention - if you don't, autopilot eventually turns off). Regarding Autopilot: 1 flick down - Traffic aware cruise control 2 flicks down - TACC with auto-steer (auto steer highway only, city streets requires FSD and 3.0 hardware) 4 flicks down (with ap/auto-steer already engaged) - Rainbow Road You have autopilot, not enhanced autopilot. Automatic lane change requires enhanced autopilot or FSD. Stopping at stoplights requires FSD. Unfortunately I don't believe your vehicle can do this regardless, because it does not have the 3.0 hardware. Per the video you only have 2.5 (3.0 was introduced in 2019). Anyway, I love it. I traded in my 2021 Toyota GR Supra 3.0 Premium for a 2021 white on white M3P back in September.

Congrats on the new car. I've looked at getting one myself, out of my price range for now and worried about the range.

Great stuff Randy! You’re right about the 21, they changed the center console in addition to adding a power trunk and a couple other things, but nothing you can’t add in the aftermarket. The car will also be somewhat quicker if you drive it at a full state of charge, probably a second quicker through the quarter mile and a few tenths to sixty! You can turn off the “more cowbell” mode by using fart mode, it’s the only way. If you just want auto pilot without that you can push down on the stalk twice.

Randy's out here driving his new tesla and I'm out here putting blue devil in my old 2000 civic 🙄🤧 he has come along ways I hope one day I can be in his position

Good video Randy Nice car enjoy it I love the variety of videos on your channel you do have one of the best channels on YouTube Keep up the good work

Auto pilot is free and included in all teslas but the full self driving package cost 10k or 200 a month for subscription
