Reducing Fossil Fuel Imprint

Definitely not a cheap vehicle to purchase (new or used). Looking forward to not having to pay ever higher costs for gasoline in the future. The electronic sophistication will take some getting used to. Better not be afraid of technology if you are looking at a Tesla. It can be a bit frustrating to try and find the right screen but I'm sure it will get easier with time. Tesla's SuperCharging network has worked great so far, it is integrated into the GPS so when you enter a location it shows all the SuperCharging stations along the way and the range. Can usually get back on the road in less than an hour. Like the regenerative breaking system, rarely have to touch the brake except to come to a complete stop. Very solid and quiet. If you can afford one, definitely recommend it.

Fun, futuristic, family hauler!

From the head turning falcon wing doors to the exhilarating torque and acceleration that the all electric dual motors provide, this suv is a dream. With frequent updates, this car gets BETTER all the time. The Autopilot keeps improving and will some day fully drive itself.

Everyone will see you coming if you drive this

This is a great electric SUV. Tesla has really outdid themselves with the design, performance, and technology this SUV offers. I have the Model S too, and prefer the Model S because its more nimble, but this is a much easier car to get in and out of compare to the model S. Its got great clearance off the ground, it handles great for a heavy SUV, and the performance incomparable to other SUV in its category. I have the six person configuration and wish I ordered the 5 person one for more cargo space being that the second row may fold down for more cargo space. Overall, I think this is a great car, fun to drive, reliable, and will get you notice anywhere and everywhere.

Best car ever!

Big, fast and no gas. What else could you ask for? By far the best vehicle purchase we have ever made. Supercharging network makes road trips a breeze.

I have owned two Teslas and also own a Mercedes B Electric which has Tesla battery and drive unit. I would recommend buying anything Tesla at this point. :)

Best car I ever owned

It is quiet. It is fast. No worry about getting out in freezing cold and snow to pump gas. Save money on lottery tickets! I never go to gas stations any more!!.

No more gas stations...ever.

This car is our daily driver but it really shined for a 900 mile trip from CT to SC and back with 5 teenagers and a dog. Falcon wing doors are neat but the overall technology is amazing.
