2013 Tesla Model S - TESLA: DRIVER'S DREAM

Tesla is 100% electric with zero emissions. I was ready to purchase it before I drove it off the lot. It handles like a dream and is ridiculously quiet. I have told many of my friends that the power exceeds anything I need, but it is nice for merging onto freeways and getting out of tough situations. Tesla provides Superchargers which are charging stations that allow you to charge your car for free. The most time I have ever taken to charge my car is about 1 hour 30 minutes. This was no problem because the great majority of charging stations are located next to really nice shopping centers and/or places to walk.

Story

Three friends of mine and I drove to Hemet to select a Park Model trailer that I am having built to install in our trailer park. We ate snacks and laughed, gossiped and talked all during the 3-hour drive. We definitely got to know each other a lot more. I let one of the others drive my car which was great for me. I got to see what it was like to ride in the car. And he was thrilled to act... (more)

Pros

This car has the same wheel base as a Hummer so it is a very large vehicle, unlike most hybrids. I have traveled with four adults on long trips very comfortably. Free charging stations means no money wasted on gas. The only liquid in the car is in the windshield washer fluid. No need for oil changes or tune-ups. Since the car is basically a computer, the software can be updated remotely. Since I have had the car, this has happened numerous times at a time I can choose which is usually in the middle of the night. For $8,000 my car is completely insured with the exception of the tire... (more)

Cons

Since the wheel base is so large, I find this car difficult to park. When I am in tight spaces it's difficult to see how close I might be to other vehicles and objects. My car is one of the first 6,000 made, so I don't have the sensors that the newer cars have. It's harder to find parking since so many lots have such a preponderance of "compact only" spaces. There are times that I don't want to have to stop after about 240 miles to get the car charged. Time to get from Point A to Point B is longer than a gas-powered vehicle.

2013 Tesla Model S - The future!

This car is, hands down, the best car I have ever owned. In fact, I will never drive another car again unless it is a Tesla! Electric cars are definitely the future; it feels like you're piloting your own spaceship when you drive one of these! They are quick, responsive, beautiful cars.

Story

Get used to the "Tesla Stare." Teslas are not very common in my part of the country, and it gets a lot of looks and attention. Once, I saw someone almost drive off the road because they jerked their head around so fast to stare at our car!

Pros

There are so many positive things to say about this car! It is gorgeous, and even after five years, my 2013 Model S still looks up-to-date and brand new. It is very fun to drive. Acceleration is so much faster when the car does not have a transmission. The regenerative braking allows for mostly "one-foot" driving and vastly reduces driver fatigue. I love never having to go to the gas station again! Maintenance is almost non-existent: no oil changes, spark plugs, etc. It seems like a very safe car and is highly rated by different safety organizations. There is lots of room, including extra ...

Cons

The car seats seven - two up front, three in the middle, and two rear-facing seats. The air flow to the rear-facing seats is not great, and the kids can get kind of hot back there. Otherwise, I really have no complaints. Fantastic car!
