Anyone trading their Taco for a Tesla Model 3?

No.

 

An EV only makes sense if your home is equipped with solar. I have a 202O Trd off road, 07 Civic si, and a 21 Model 3. Before the model 3, I was paying about 250 gas per week due to my 120 mile round trip commute. The savings in gas alone made the purchase worthwhile. 3000 sq feet home with solar and electric bill is -$20 to -$25 @ month for a family of 6. My charging usually occurs after 9pm/ off peak hours.

 

No, as they are different vehicles for different purposes. However, I did just pick up a 2022 Model 3 as a second car (well, more like the Tacoma became the second car), and it is a blast to drive and easier to commute in.

 

Taycan is a looker...

 

NO, I would not take/keep an electric car even if it was for free.

 

Why not? Not even an EV Tacoma?

 

lol, I know right. If someone gave me a free $160k dollar Lucid I'm selling that sucker.

 

I wish I had insisted on more panels when I had my Solar City (Tesla) system installed 6 years ago. Anything to escape the highest electricity rates in the U.S. brought to us by San Diego Gas and Electric! Did you see there is going to be another choice for Electricity provider in San Diego? I hope SDG&E is wetting itself!

 

SDG&E rates are the HIGHEST in the U.S. including Hawaii! Those SOB's! There soon is going to be another option for San Diego residents for Electricity! Can's wait! Hope SDGE is wetting itself right now!

 

I don’t think the bill will be much different as sdge owns the distribution system and will just charge more. They only pay me .025 for over producing. I’m ok since just want a zero bill for home/pool/Tesla 3

 

California has great weather, beaches, mountains and desert. Unfortunately we also have politicians that are "daft" and spend all their time thinking up ways to dip into my wallet instead of working on problems like crime and homeless population.

 

Supposed to be a 5% savings. Off course SDGE will rip off the customers that stay with them instead of switching over and then whine about it with their "Dean Spanos school of Public Relations" SDG&E has already used "class warfare" in their PR campaign to pit Solar Panels owners against those that do not.

 

The rate for overproducing electricity from my solar panels has been consistently reduced by SDGE shoving their BS to the PUC who have propped them up way too long.

 

No need to switch

 

Totally agreed. Get both.

"Grill" looks Toyotaish

 

Both vehicles in the garage? I have so much crap in my garage only the Tesla gets put to bed indoors! My Tacoma in the driveway lets my buddies know I am home.

 

We have a 3 car garage. Model x and Jeep jk rubicon share garage with 3
Tacoma sleeps outside.

 

We did the same thing. M3DM last year and Taco this year. Cybertrunk and Riven just too far out or too over-priced for what we need. M3DM is great commuter 50+mi round trip, but not so great when it snows or I have to haul a couch or home remodel stuff, which is why we ordered the Taco. Pick up tomorrow…I hope.
