This is what made us decide to make the plunge for the Model S and not wait for the 3.
When we crunched the numbers over the long term for maintenance, gas vs electric, etc it made the decision much easier.
Insurance somehow turned out cheaper as well but I guess it being the safest car on the road helped that.

This whole process has been so "Tesla".
Electronic updates throughout, pics while on the train, satellite tracking where exactly it's been on the train via transport, Elon sending a card and photo of "joining the family".
My son and wife have named her Electra. Not my first choice but whatever she says goes as she allowed me to get it at this point

I was just reading about your Model S Corey....DAMN!
Model S Performance comes standard with All-Wheel Drive Dual Motor, pairing the high performance rear motor with a high efficiency front motor to achieve supercar acceleration, from zero to 60 miles per hour in 2.8 seconds.
That is incredible.
And I like the Carmen, Electra combo.

I'll try to get some pics up tomorrow or soon. I've been driving it around all day and running it through the ringer to make sure all is good with it.
It's easily the most amazing ride I've ever had. And I've had a lot according to this thread

You're more than likely to die from reading a Shel post than anyone else. Though that may have always been the case, this doesn't really change anything.

Finally took the front plate off. Looks so much better.
Next, tint, paint the garage and epoxy the floor.
