A short YouTube commentary by Chris Koerner recounting his personal experience owning a Tesla Model S for two years (≈30,000 miles). He lists concrete complaints (unfinished FSD, lower-than-advertised real-world range, costly tires/insurance/charging, reliability/bug issues) and praises (smooth ride, air suspension, glass roof, roomy interior, large screen, yoke steering).
I bought this Tesla Model S two years ago. I put 30,000 miles on it. And here is my brutally honest opinion of why you should not or should own a Tesla. Number one. You're driving a car that's still in beta and you are the test subject. Watch out. I bought it for full self driving. Cost 10 grand extra and it doesn't even work. Buyer beware. Real world range is significantly less than advertised. Mine's advertised for 390. I get 290 if I'm lucky. Supercharging is 40 cents per kilowatt hour. You'll pay extra if you use Tesla insurance, if you drive past 11pm or if you have a bug when with your forward collision warning. It's a total racket. My tires wear out at 20,000 miles. It cost 2,500 bucks. It's a joke. It beeps at you when you try to look at your phone while you're full self driving. What's the point of full self driving? Here's why you should buy it. Very smooth, fun to ride. Automatic air suspension, all glass roof is amazing. Wide interior is amazing. Big screen is amazing. Vegan leather. Whatever it is, it's amazing. The yoke steering wheel, not that hard to use and I love it.
