Anyone trading their Taco for a Tesla Model 3?

anyone pay their truck off when you bought it and feel credit is for the poor?

 

I would own one, but not as my only car. Those electric motors have lots of torque. 0-60 in 3.5 seconds. Even if you manage to get a turbo in your taco it isn’t going to do that. Different strokes for different folks...

 

Nope

 

Yes, and he owns a Tacoma, and is asking if anyone has considered making a trade. Demeaning someone for asking a question is childish.

 

Check out Rivian. They look to be introducing some interesting vehicles.

 

Some people are just a little overly sensitive. It’s all in good fun

 

I have nothing nice to say, but Tesla fuck that. I can't wait for the two hour special to roll out.

My next car will likely be an electric, but probably not a Tesla. It’s hard to not really impressed by their tech, but I just hate the design. There’s nothing appealing to me about a lineup that looks like slightly different versions of a Mazda 3.

 

Like it or not, Electric vehicles are the future, but not necessarily by choice. California is poised to level steep registration fees based on mileage, engine size, curb weight etc. on all gas powered vehicles. - including Trucks. Trucks and SUVs will always be around, but the state is about to make us pay dearly.

 

Yup you can all take that high speed rail

 

Fuck no.

 

Smiles per mile

 

People don't buy a Tesla for economic savings either. If they did then their financial advisor needs to be fired. They buy them for the cool factor and nothing more. Spending 50k is hardly economical for a vehicle for personal use.

 

It's going to happen from time to time but auto-pilot is statistically significantly safer than driving 'manually', so I don't really see your point.

 

Worst thread on TW

 

I would do it. Once you drive a tesla you see how amazing they are. If it werent for insurance and if they released the 35k model earlier, I'd drive one. It would be so nice to not have to go to a gas station. You plug it in at night like your phone!

 

We** have both. A 1998 Tacoma PreRunner 4x4 conversion and a 2018 Tesla Model 3 Dual Motor AWD Long Range.

The Tesla is better as a commuter car.

The truck is better in almost every other aspect.

 

I couldn't care less whether my vehicle is gas or electric powered. If it does what I need it to do, and does it well, I'm happy. And if it's cheaper to drive per mile, what's not to like? That's more money in my pocket for hamburgers.

 

Word.
