    Does Tesla let you roll negative equity into a lease?

    Poor financial sense is still poor financial sense be it personal or company. For the latter, an employee should exercise good fiduciary responsibility for the benefit if the organization. I imagine a proper company would have its financial specialists to review negative assets and expenses such...

    Ordered a Used 2021 MY; will I regret not getting a 2022 or later?

    You are made a smart move by buying used. You let the other fella absorb the steepest depreciation hit. So boom! +1 Money saved can be used on other experiential aspects of life or go invest in high yield stocks. As for Ryzen vs Atom chips, I can only speak of my limited exposure with my...

    Lol! Is Tesla that predictable now?

    Ordered a Used 2021 MY; will I regret not getting a 2022 or later?

    Kinda too late to ask now. For me if going used Y, 2022 and later due to iterative improvements. Everyone is different and have varying circumstances. YMMV!

    .99% APR Financing Promotion (May 10 - May 31 2024)

    Recent news of the Detroit brands are pivoting to hybrids and maintaining ICE vehicles. No rush to push EV now that US government has created a 100% Tariff shield.

    Review of my 2024 Tesla M3 RWD after approx 2 weeks

    I see you have Ultra Red. How is it holding up? Any squeaks and rattles developed since initial ownership?

    2022 Model S Base versus 2024 Model 3 LR

    Posting on model s forum means you will get unbiased input surely. 😆 Or perhaps you are looking for affirmation.

    Charging in Banff and Lake Louise

    I am glad that we visited Banff and Jasper during Covid where there were no cross border travels. The places were quiet... devoid of tour busses and hordes of tourists! Amazing experience. While Lake Louise and Moraine lake get alot of attention, a favourite of ours was the Maligne lake cruise...

    MY 2024 Refresh - Project Juniper?

    I think the 3 had one minor refresh by dechroming and dropping USS some years ago prior to Highland. Not sure what else Tesla did.

    MY 2024 Refresh - Project Juniper?

    Based on the M3H, we should be seeing some spy shots and parts evidence by now. IIRC M3H dropped in China and EU around this time last year. But yeah no guarantees for 2025 being year of the Juniper. Guess we will know soon enough. Some idle thoughts on should Tesla launch Juniper soon or not...

    Supercharger - Whistler, BC - Lorimer Road

    That part of Whistler Village is busy. Not sure how the ICE folks would feel if the parking lot is full in peak season. They should've put in Creekside Village. That part is so under utilised. I think parking is free too. There's a covered parkade that would be perfect. Would certainly help...

    Supercharger - Cliveden Ave - Delta BC

    Always glad to see more SC locations. Not sure why in this industrial park though.

    Should I pull the trigger?

    OP's 2021 is peak depreciation. If losing money is not an issue, go for it. The Highland refresh is fantastic. Just saw OP's update. Then uh... congrats mate!
