I also just bought a used Model Y (also black) with over 100,000 miles, and I've been really pleased with it so far. Tesla had recently replaced the battery pack, so that was an extra incentive, along with the $4K subsidy off the price for sub $25K qualifying BEVs. Which made it a surprising bargain overall. Thanks for the review and tips. And the best of luck with your new/used Tesla!
2022 Model Y Performance 104,721 miles. I bought the car new. Ive had zero issues with it. Love the vehicle. I just picked up my BEAST last week. The power difference is unbelievable.
@Davidmccombs At 100K I performed the battery health test and it came back at 85%. My range is well over 200 miles. For example I make frequent road trips of 185 miles at 80MPH and I make it to my destination with 5% remaining. I do have larger tires and spacers on my car which effect the range.
I sold my old 2014 Model S this past April in preparation to buy a new M3 this December. It had 136k miles on it and had the older tech. I wouldn't hestoate to buy a 2020 MY with 100k for the right price. I'm actually thinking of switching gears and buying a lightly used M3 now. The prices are really pretty insane. We'll see.
I wanted less miles, but we were a bit in a hurry and it was a pretty good deal. An M3 would have been a much better deal. We considered it, but have a new baby with a car seat. Still happy about the purchase. Hope It turns out well!
@Davidmccombs ....we HOPE it expires in about 8 years, as intended!! I have a sinking feeling that the next Republican president that steps foot in the oval office will gut that program pronto. That's part of the reason I'm hell-bent on buying my next Tesla before years end!
@@ferrynpalmer3875 Elon Musk is gonna be one of Trumps right hand men lmao, i doubt that EV's are going anywhere. Trump isnt the typical truck guy republican, he's used to expensive cars and likely supports the electric overhaul
I wonder if Evs will last longer than ice vehicles due to the motor on an ev not having as many parts that fail as an engine, that’s my hope at least, essentially a car that just needs to have its tires and batteries replaced but everything else lasts a long time
I got it from a dealership. I tried getting one through Tesla but they tend not to sell cars under 25k. You can find them but they sell fast so they will usually list them around 2k higher and slowly drop the price.
Personally, I would only recommend very experienced drivers to use fsd. I wouldn't use it as a crutch. I don't mean to come off rude. I say this for safety reasons. Full self driving can make the worst decision at the worst moments.
I’ve been using it for the past few months. I think you do have to be trained to use it. But it’s also been helpful for my wife has hasn’t driven in years. It’s boosting her confidence for easy drives but it’s still far from perfect. You can’t rely on it for everything but for simple stuff it seems fine.

Sounds like you got a great deal! I wish my battery pack was newer but at least it’s still under warranty for the next few years.
Teslas are known to fail? If that statement was even half the truth, the model y wouldn't be the best seller that it is.

That's good to hear. I've been doing lots of testing and still no issues here. What's your range at 80%?

Yeah right now is the time to do it. The EV rebate expires in about 8 years

What’s the range like in the car
I get 220 miles charged at 80%
Did you purchase through Tesla or a third party? If you purchased through Tesla, were you able to see the car first or?
I got it from a dealership. I tried getting one through Tesla but they tend not to sell cars under 25k. You can find them but they sell fast so they will usually list them around 2k higher and slowly drop the price.
So if I bought a hybrid in 2023 and took the $4k tax credit, I can not get that $4k credit till 2026?.? Can I get the full $7500 on a new ev?
Yes you have to wait 3 years. You should still be able to get the new EV credit
