I Can't Believe I Bought this 6 year old Tesla

I can't believe I bought this six-year-old Tesla. Here's why I did and what you should know if you're considering a used electric vehicle. Six years later, is a used 2018 Tesla Model 3 still worth it? My experience and review.

Just bought a 2019 SR+ a month ago with 46k miles and I absolutely love it. Paid $20k for it. An incredible deal.

[Usalas]

Congrats I just picked up my 2023 model 3 with 31k miles for 26k. Absolutely love the car

Great video ! We just got a used 2022 tesla Model 3 long range/dual motors, with 90000 miles on it for the amazing price of $20000. The car still looks like new and it works flawlessly too. Anyway, hope you will enjoy your tesla for many years to come as well ! 👍

At 103k miles, my ‘16 Model S still has 94% of its original battery. Drives like new.

Just keep the battery between 30-80% and supercharge sparingly.

Just got a gorgeous deep blue, 1 owner, no accident 2022 Model 3 RWD for $27k with only 40k miles on it, under full warranty and has permanent FSD, max spec. MSRP is $65k on the window sticker. I got a insane deal for a car that is barely 2 years old haha. I love it.

[mrjonnylowes]

Great video! People just don’t understand how cheap EV ownership can be, and a Tesla is the best EV you can buy.

[gore]

I also purchased a 2018 model 3 long range with FSD at 40, 000 miles, paid about $18, 000. I love it and the full self driving is amazing since I got the latest update.

I am picking up a used 2018 model three tomorrow!

[Yotamansam]

The production of this video is top tier!

[ryanevans]

You can get a NEMA 14-50 socket splitter and just plug it into your dryer outlet. The splitter will only allow one side to pull at once- if your dryer is on, it’s running the dryer; otherwise, it’s charging the Tesla.
That’s what I would do, as a renter, and to me it pretty much makes the whole Level 2 charger “install” issue moot.

Great video! I'm shocked at how little the battery degraded.

[voyagerprobe]

Thank you for putting out this fine video to help those who are on the fence or who don't believe that buying a tesla on the cheap can be done. Cheers mate !

[jibcano]

I just got a 2018 model 3. Dual motor performance with fsd. $26k usd. Has 89k miles, crack on the screen, dent on the rocker under the driver door. Super happy. Just hard since I can't charge at my apartment.

[Moneyman]

I just got a Tesla model S 2017 with 67k miles for about 27k looks and drives amazing

[jefferrrsonx]

Damn man… the video production of this video is elite. Like a cable company made this. Kudos man. That’s a lot of post work right there lol. Congrats on the purchase.

Question, you went for a van ish to a model 3. Is it bc you no longer need the storage space? That’s a big jump.

[Life-ermq]

Got a 2021 Model 3 RWD around $27k with only 30k miles. VERY happy with it 🙌🏾

[martinhoogenraad]

Mijne (longrange 2019) with 140.000km also is brand New and still perfect. Degradation: arround 9 ~ 10%. But still around 67kwh usable battery. Is just perfect, interior and exterior, no maintenance till now, other than tires and windshield stuff. Would buy it again for sure.

Good job. I can echo your experience. In April, I bid on, and bought a 2018 Model 3 with 54, 000 miles for $7800 at a salvage vehicle auction. It had been wrecked in the front. Every damaged part was bolt on. Parts cost me another $4, 000. My son, who is a Tesla expert, and I (unskilled) did the work. It is rear wheel drive and long range with the FSD option. Truly, it is a very nice car. I am giving it to my 27 yo daughter. Last year, I installed a 240 volt charging station in my garage for my wife's 2023 Model Y. I did upgrade my solar system, so most of her driving is free. The car uses more than the home. Being in California does help.

As somebody who is about to sell my 5.5yr old model 3 performance with 60k miles on it, I’m super disappointed in the range reduction. It needs charging twice on road trips it used to do off a single charge. The range is down noticeably although otherwise it has aged okay. I’m happy to be selling and moving to a more luxurious vehicle. In 2019 it was the best production car in the world, but boy the competition has caught up.

[Lupinicus]

Got my 2019 Model 3 Performance last year and it has been flawless. A pleasure to drive and costs very little to run. (...and the acceleration always makes you smile...)
