I could not have done without Tesla

Update on this thread https://www.reddit.com/r/TeslaModel3/s/aMT7G13QjG

I lost my remote job back in July and the one I found was in office nearly 125 miles away. I could not say no and decided to give Tesla a go with 100% self driving. People said you can’t do 100% self drive but here I am posting this from car, 39 days / 5130 miles later

I could get addicted to this

Picked up my M3 yesterday and my work is like 110 mile one way. Already enrolled in FSD as can’t imagine driving without it now

I could relax my muscles, stretch, do some light stretching exercises for arms and legs which still being in full control and not stress for 2.5hr drive

Following up on this thread

Just ordered the new inventory as soon as it came, exactly the car that I wanted came in inventory exactly in the configuration that I secretly wanted. Kid wanted gray, wife was more of white kinda but deep down I wanted Red

So here goes nothing, while they both in deep sleep.

200 mi/day commute, used 2024 M3 Premium at 6% or new 2026 at 1.99%

I drive ~200 miles a day (100 each way). Don’t ask, it is what it is, and I’m committed to it for at least another year. I already have a Q7 for family duty and longer trips, so this is purely a commuter to save on gas. FSD is non-negotiable.

Test drove a Model 3 Premium today (deliberately the longest-range one) and loved it. So the car is decided, what I can’t decide is used vs new. Leasing is off the table given the mileage.

The two options, both M3 Premium RWD:

• Used 2024, 16k miles — ~$39k, 6% APR (my own bank, best I can get)

• New 2026 — ~$48k out the door, 1.99% APR (they bumped it 1% today, of course)

Monthly payment lands in basically the same place either way, and I can comfortably afford both. I’d rather not put a huge cash down payment in, which is the one thing that would clearly favor the used car.

Where I get stuck is depreciation. I’ll add 40-50k miles in a year, ~45k of it freeway, mostly on FSD. So a year from now the 2024 is at ~60k miles and the 2026 is at ~40k. My guess is the 2024 sells for $20-22k and the 2026 for $30-32k. On paper that’s ~$17-18k of depreciation either way, so it feels like a wash which is exactly why I’m going in circles.

Anyone here done serious high-mileage in a Model 3. Anything I’m not accounting for warranty coverage at that mileage, battery degradation, resale on a 60k-mile car vs a 40k-mile one, Which would you buy...

Do you want a roommate?

Edit: Budget max 1000 for shared room, can stretch higher if private room

I want to stay in nicer / safer area in SF only for 4 nights in the week. I would arrive Monday morning and gone by Friday morning. I found a work gig in City but have home in Placer County.

Must have bathroom on site, I can share with room mate but not with entire building. Preferably private / lockable room but we can talk if price is right for shared room.

Ideally month to month lease / but okay with 3-6-12 month lease too

What are places to look for such place?

Asking for wife. Are you getting gigs?

My wife has had her share of success and has 10k+ followers on insta and her work is appreciated by big name brands as well as many celebrity chef she worked with.

Yet she is struggling to find any gig recently, almost over 6 months and it’s not worth her time to do $5k or under gigs as she get the staff and such

How has market changed for all of you? Any ideas for getting more work?

Convert office into studio

I have a room that open in the hallway and has a window facing to the side alley. I want to close the door and instead convert the window into French door, that would make this room completely separate from house with outside entrance but still attached to main house.

Any idea how much it might cost in California (Placer County) and I think it might require plans. Also thinking of building a bath by converting the closet into walk in closet / shower.

Ideally want to see if I can put this room as something to support income - attached the plan for this room
