Congratulations on your success! Not picking on you, but I always love it when people list out their cars and how they "haven't had many" or "not that expensive" etc. Every vehicle and mile driven is a drain on resources, but most people don't realize how much. Let's see, I'm twice your age and have/had (drum roll please) a 2015 70D (roadtripper), 2011 Leaf (towncar), and 1992 truck (sold last month). All were purchased new with cash. Other vehicles for work and pleasure were/are all bicycles: 1998 Santana Tandem (weekender), 1994 Trek Mountain (ridden to work today), 1988 Touring (forgot the manufacturer, sold to a friend in college), 1983 Trek 10-Speed (sold as well), 1970's Peugeot 10-Speed (kept running until I couldn't find parts, left in front of a dumpster with FREE sign, taken and then returned the next week), and finally a 1960's Aero Bee Banana (long since deceased but repaired, rebuilt, rewelded (ever heard of Evil Knievel?) and repainted so many times that obsessive or persistent doesn't even begin to describe it). I don't often trade up or purchase new items and hope that the 2015 70D lasts as long as my 1984 Trek. I'll report back in 2045....Also, didn't have a history of "nice" cars.. my cars goes as fellows. A 1992 Honda Civic, A 1998 Malibu, a a 2001 Ford Mustang, a 2005 Ford Taurus, a 2012 chevy Cruze, and my first new car was a 2015 mustang GT. Now... a tesla model S 90D. So, you see how a tesla is an extreme jump for me

When you say owning did you pay cash for the car or lease / borrowThis has come sooner then I've ever expected for me. Like most of my friends and Family, there were many years where I struggled and could hardly get approved for a 10k car loan. At the time, it felt like a slow process to get where I am today but know looking back and reflecting, I've exceeded those I know at a faster pace. I'm not used to having such expensive car. I'm used to owning cars in the 15-20k range and that was amazing enough to me. I felt success when I was able to buy a $36k 2015 Mustang GT at the age of 26 a couple years ago. Eveb at that level, I hardly personally knew anyone who had such a nice/expensive car.
Well, here I am today, just turned 29 and placed an order for a $90k car. (Taking delivery next week) and although it is within our means, it still doesn't sit right with me that I was able to do this and drive a car that's worth just about 100k... typing that didn't feel right lol it was always my unrealistic dream car but never at the age of 29. How did I get so lucky?
I wonder if there is anyone else here who almost came from nothing and now own a Tesla today or if there was anyone younger then 29 when their dream became a reality.
I still feel too young to have this car
1, can you really afford it?
2. Set a top amount
3. Buy it. The ROI will be a lot more than expected.
4. You are the book keeper, let us know in 5 yrs.
I just completed 10k miles in 4 months at ZERO cost. Now no one says a word about my S.
It was the most fun of my life, (I've had 6 corvettes).
Wife with a good job is a great investment!
