I drive a highland model 3 standard range. I got rear ended and the built in dashcam got it all on video. Guy who hit me was nice and all, but the video made it super cut and dry for insurance who’s at fault. Never thought id need it but man do I love the tech in Teslas
Just keep working hard. Act like someone is always over your shoulder watching you work. That way you'll always be doing the best job and the secret is: There are actually ALWAYS people watching. I'm far from wealthy but have a good enough job to where I have one of these.
We just purchased a used 2021 model 3 AWD long range and we love it. I love the simplicity of it as well as the technology. It really is like nothing else I’ve ever owned. I think that anyone who gets a chance to drive one they should. I guarantee they will be smiling when they do.
Everyone seems to be catching on to this now. I put 18 inch wheels on my 2024 M3P and am averaging 221/ Wh/mi over the past 1,900 miles. That’s almost 355 miles to a full charge. As much I as I enjoy the performance of the car, I enjoy getting the most efficiency out of even more. Call me crazy, but I’m actually considering trading it in on a long range rwd since I’m not driving it how it was intended. Btw, love the humor in your vids (literally feel like I’m watching myself) and was cool to see you on the latest “out of spec” vid. Looking forward to that series.
@davewhitegt Can you tell me what 18-inch rims you put on? Did you have to make any adjustments so that they would fit with the new brakes? It's interesting to know how to increase range and still have a rocket. Thank you from Spain
By the way I swapped out the stock wheels for t-sport Line 18-in Wheels with a square setup 235 all the way around. Just got back from driving from North Georgia to Boca Chica and back a round trip of over 2000 miles. My average consumption over 12,000 MI has been 242 Watt hours per mile which implies if I were to use the entire battery of 82 kilowatts arrange of 328 MI. And the t-sport Line Wheels ticket cost mean anything because I sold the stock wheels for more than the t-sport line wheel and tires cost. As far as comfort, it's firm but I like a firm car I've driven Porsche BMW Mercedes, mini sports cars over the years, the ride is very comfortable for daily driving. My biggest complaint with the car is that the brakes aren't really up to truly spirited driving I caught them on fire inside of a minute of 10 10ths driving. But for daily driving it is perfectly adequate if I were going to track the car I would be working on getting more air to the rotors and possibly different rotors entirely. People complain endlessly about the lack of stocks I think that's a red herring from people who have never actually driven the car, that has been zero issue it took me less than an hour to adjust my muscle memory.
@Reebok4523 You buy a performance car and drive it balls to the wall all the time? Dumb. I use fsd when I'm not interested in pushing it. Like when I'm on a daily commute or a 20 hour road trip. Try to use your brain in the future.
Excellent and accurate on everything you said. Mine is a daily driver. Had it since May 29th of this year. Even with all the launches I’ve done my lifetime average is 314 miles of usable range for full charge. I’ve gotten as high as 360 on some drives. My worst drives I’m down to 270miles. One thing you didn’t mention along with low profile tires is the low ride height at 5.” You have to drive it with this awareness. Lots of people curb rash their Tesla wheels and or scrap their lips because they don’t have awareness of these ride heights.
When I decided to trade in my 2020 model 3 AWD I drove every current model, considering not just my likes and dislikes but those of my wife. The Model 3 P was the standout. In my younger days I drove a Porsche, flew a hot Army scout helicopter and liked a challenge. Now I am retired and have a wife who when she drives likes a responsive car, but when I drive likes it calm and easy. Her ride is a Lexus with a modified suspension and to my surprise she approved the model 3 P. We talked about the range difference and price and she said go for it. So we did. The trade in had FSD so I moved that to the new car, and when actual FSD appears I will be a totally happy camper.
Very sharp looking vehicle. But, the staggered wheel sizes, no steering wheel stalks, and low step in height made the Model Y with 19" wheels a better choice for me. I've tested FSD for a few minutes and it is not my cup of tea. Stresses me more to worry about the computer screwing up than for me to just drive the vehicle myself.
I have the Y with stalks and bought a 3 without stalks. Been driving about 60 years, owned over 30 cars and have adjusted to a lot of changes/features. I thought I might not like it. Within 3 days I loved the stockless system. Even prefer it.
I've been trying to love FSD for a couple months on my daily commute (mostly highway) and it can absolutely be more stress than it's worth. It's still an unfinished product in my eyes. Edit: forgot to mention - it doesn't work at night on rural roads because of the "occluded" pillar cameras when it gets too dark for the cams 🤦♂️
Gjeebs, really have enjoyed your videos - smart, funny and often very informative! We were looking at getting a Tesla, but unfortunately, Elon Musk's recent dive into politics has now soured the brand for us. We understand many of the benefits of Tesla, but we can't reconcile owning a car that is synonymous with him. Hopefully, you continue to get the opportunity to review other EVs for all of us non-Tesla folks. Again, appreciate the work you put in for a quality channel!
If the performance model is too expensive, the dual motor alarm with acceleration boost is a good option. It has the smaller wheels and still very quick
I just upgraded from a 2021 Long Range to a 2024 M3P. It definitely is smoother, even with the larger wheels. But I still loved my 2021 and was sad to see it sold. The model 3/y in any trim must be one of the best daily drivers out there. I live in Japan and autopilot works awesome here. It works way better than Japanese self-driving systems I have driven, like Honda Sensing. Making a day trip up north is a breeze with autopilot.
Nice post and beautiful car. When talking about range if one charges to the recommended 80% you are only going to get about 240 miles. At least that is what I am getting in my 2024 M3P. 90% in my previous 23 M3LR was about 315. Anyone else getting the same range as me at 80%, or is everyone just charging to 90 and 100? Thanks.
I'd like to go with the M3P but you can't get the 7500 incentive when adding any option. You are stuck with the Grey color. At this point I may get the LR dual motor with photo wheels and ultra red. Although the photon wheels I don't like as much and basically hubvaps. And I like them worse with the inserts taken out.
Performance doesn't charge extra for white interior anymore...or at least currently. 😁 Love the white. But will say, my 2022 Performance has much more comfortable seating vs my 2024.
Roundabouts are EXTREMELY COMMON in some states! In Indiana… you can get sea sick as some cities have them at every intersection. That’s why I hope stalks will become an option. I believe they will as sales of new Y will be hampered by first time test drivers… so if it becomes an option in the Y it will be an option in the 3. People said I was wrong when I said Elon was full of it when he said Yoke would be the ONLY option in the plaid etc…. Turns out he was wrong. Same thing for the TINY little horn button that I guaranteed would change and it did. HUNTING” for moving turn signals while turning (in roundabouts etc) is just a terrible idea as most people in roundabouts suck at driving in them and the NO stalks will only add to the danger. If nothing else, a few lawsuits will change Elons cheapness
I seldom go ‘sport mode’ in my M3P but still glad I picked it over the other variants. The only downside is those pricey tires. They are NOT pothole resilient. I wish the FSD chroniclers would comment more about that.
Minor note: Remote monitoring of the cameras requires premium connectivity ($9 a month, or $99 a year at the moment). Otherwise, the car has no cell service to transmit the pictures.
Thanks for the video - lots of potholes in Northern California Thinking to sell the wheels immediately after buying - recommend forged 18” known to fit these new bigger performance brakes? Seen any method to remove the plastic covers without damaging the wheels?
I have wheels ordered so there will be a video on this soon and I am also making a video on how to not scratch your wheels when removing plastic covers.
interested in the wheel you choose… I think covers off these are Tesla’s best looking wheels and would choose a 4x18” if offered after watching a few remove covers but scratching… had the idea of destructively using a professional heat gun to bend back the tabs
I remember Bjorn (the most trusted range tester) said the best tesla m3 in terms of range is the"cheapest one" at the time he reviewed it, not sure if it was the standard or long range anymore 😂
Hi Gjeebs… your videos are good. I have one question. Do you know if Tesla standart 18” wheels will fit on a Highland Performers? Thanks in advance. Casper
I currently own the M3P highland and its the best daily I've ever driven. Plus it is so fast. I want to own a plaid model S one day. Will it be wiser to buy the year before used or buy new?
Gjeebs, I drove a 2023 model Y performance for a while, I found it a little harsh and the MVH sucked in my opinion. I know you’ve driven this one before as well, how would you say it compares to your new model three performance? I mean, if you can remember what a model Y performance felt like
Does this have a standard blindspot..and can you demo that feature since they dont have it on the previous year model ...we do have blindspot feature thats only when putting your turn signals which is not enough .
FSD "perpetual license that stays with the vehicle"? What you actually get is a license that stays with the car unless Tesla decides to allow you to transfer it to a new (as in brand new) Tesla. They have done so a couple of times but so far have rejected the idea of a "perpetual license" that follows the owner.
@@Gjeebs Sure is. I’m leaning towards the S because of the extra leg room, comfort and roadtrip range. Your videos help with the research, but the best way to know is to demo the performance to practically compare.
An easy way to test the difference is if you have a stone or brick paved road that you can drive on near you. The difference isn't massive, but there is a difference.
Too much power for the road plus there is a 300 dollars a month difference with a no money down loan. I have the long range rwd plenty of power and much healthier payment
@@Skeetskeet333 That’s fine that you think that. I personally like it more with the covers on. Especially since you can’t take all of them off, there are ones that are part of the wheel, and you can only take off the really big pieces.
Overall a great car - I still have my 2018 M3awdLR and love it. But the turn signals? Left/right function arranged up & down? Kinda dumb. Great review as always 😎
I got used to them within the first few hours of driving the car home and to a few other spots. I do kind of wish they had put them on opposite sides of the steering wheel, but I can't say this configuration is that much worse.
Yes great car, 1st thing omg Teslas are so cheap in the US compared to UK, 2nd I disagree about getting use to the no stalk, maybe in US is ok, but in Europe and UK where 90% of intersections are roundabouts...jeez man you just can't do it with an upside down steering wheel and indicate out of one....NO NO NO... bring back stalks for EU version
Build quality on my 2018 Model 3 is comparable to my previous two cars - a 2001 Mercedes E320 wagon and a 2004 BMW 325ci. After 6 years, still no squeaks or rattles in the Tesla.
@@johnkent5042 Everybody knows that Teslas do not last longer than tw weeks and the battery must be exchanged every year and they squeack and rattle all the time and when you park them in the garage the burn every time. Luckily you and me are not everybody. Never had such trustworthy and easy to use cars in 45 years. My first M3 from 2019 had one failure in the 3-phase charger when one phase gave up. That was of course repaired without cost and i even got a free Model S loaner for the time. Whereas with my Skoda Enyaq EV i had to wait 6 months for a repair of the battery and with my Fiat 500E i must go to the dealer every year for mandatory service appointments. Not for much longer.
the FSD is super annoying. It keeps telling me I'm not paying attention and after a few 'strikes' it will be disabled. I'm not paying $99/mo. to have some annoying nanny nannying me. It's offensive!
I drive a highland model 3 standard range. I got rear ended and the built in dashcam got it all on video. Guy who hit me was nice and all, but the video made it super cut and dry for insurance who’s at fault. Never thought id need it but man do I love the tech in Teslas

More power and drive modes plus it looks better. Just depends on what you want. If you don't want the power then don't get it
In America do you guys have roundabouts? I think this on wheel turn signal is useless when going through one, or even multiple...

I currently have standard 18's and it fits fine
Too much power for the road plus there is a 300 dollars a month difference with a no money down loan. I have the long range rwd plenty of power and much healthier payment
To slow I’d give you the LR awd
I subscribed because he said lot lizard. That’s it.
Soulless car. Hideous wheels. Nice review.
Turns a 10 second video into a 17 min video
Sir, I couldn’t agree more with your comparison between Benjamin Franklin and Musk 👍🏽
Why do you keep those plastic caps in your wheels?
For efficiency. When you remove them it lowers the range on the car, and as a small bonus it somewhat protects the wheels a bit better.
@@ProXcaliberright but it doesn’t look as good
@@Skeetskeet333 I mean, that’s subjective. I don’t think they look great, but they definitely don’t look terrible either.
@@ProXcaliber they look great without the covers tho.
@@Skeetskeet333 That’s fine that you think that. I personally like it more with the covers on. Especially since you can’t take all of them off, there are ones that are part of the wheel, and you can only take off the really big pieces.
Let me save you 17 minutes without even watching it. *clears throat* yes. Yes you can.
14:00 900 pounds is crazy he wouldn’t even be able to walk at that weight
Overall a great car - I still have my 2018 M3awdLR and love it. But the turn signals? Left/right function arranged up & down? Kinda dumb.
Great review as always 😎
I think you will need to experience it personally before making a conclusion, it is kind of what he is saying in the video.
I got used to them within the first few hours of driving the car home and to a few other spots. I do kind of wish they had put them on opposite sides of the steering wheel, but I can't say this configuration is that much worse.

Working on it right now
Yes great car, 1st thing omg Teslas are so cheap in the US compared to UK,
2nd I disagree about getting use to the no stalk, maybe in US is ok, but in Europe and UK where 90% of intersections are roundabouts...jeez man you just can't do it with an upside down steering wheel and indicate out of one....NO NO NO... bring back stalks for EU version
The money you save in gas you loose in depreciation. One thing you never talk about.
Only issue i see are constant tires/brakes change and the duct tape build quality.
Better than Ford, Stellantis or GM. What do you expect? Tesla Berlin Quality? Not for you.
The build quality is great now on the new Model 3's and I barely use the brakes because of regen
Build quality on my 2018 Model 3 is comparable to my previous two cars - a 2001 Mercedes E320 wagon and a 2004 BMW 325ci. After 6 years, still no squeaks or rattles in the Tesla.
@@johnkent5042 Everybody knows that Teslas do not last longer than tw weeks and the battery must be exchanged every year and they squeack and rattle all the time and when you park them in the garage the burn every time.
Luckily you and me are not everybody.
Never had such trustworthy and easy to use cars in 45 years. My first M3 from 2019 had one failure in the 3-phase charger when one phase gave up. That was of course repaired without cost and i even got a free Model S loaner for the time.
Whereas with my Skoda Enyaq EV i had to wait 6 months for a repair of the battery and with my Fiat 500E i must go to the dealer every year for mandatory service appointments.
Not for much longer.
I know the power of first impressions, but it doesn't hurt to actually see the new cars upclose for a change.
Lol, why the heck not? This is not a hyper car like a Revuelto or a Bugatti. 😂😂
the FSD is super annoying. It keeps telling me I'm not paying attention and after a few 'strikes' it will be disabled. I'm not paying $99/mo. to have some annoying nanny nannying me. It's offensive!
I have been for 3 years!
