Why will I ever want luxury car when this 50k midrange SUV is comfortable enough, crazy fast, rather inexpensive to maintain, and mostly importantly can drive itself?

Always puts smile on my face watching the stunningly rich red color on my month old Tesla

I lived sedantary nerd life until recently and finally got into fitness. Been consistently putting 1 hour every other day for past month or so, but I am not seeing discernable results which is a bit of let down. I am aware it's a long game, but how long until body recomposition shows up?

A bit about me below to get some pointers in right direction:

• 185lb, M, 30's age
• 1 hour session every other day consists of 10 min warm up on treadmil + 30 min on dumbell bench + 20 min on equipments of interest(still learning)
• I currently take about 0.6-7g of protein per pound, so think 120-130g -- 60g from supplements, rest from meal. Don't count calories yet, but I rarely ever ate junk foods even before fitness journey and I anticipate ballpark intake to be 2~3k range depending on whether I have to eat outside at work

This ain't no racing car but curious what others think about PPF

Parents live in Alberta. I work in US west coast. We will be gathering at Vancouver for about 5 days. Our AirBNB is at Coquitlam and we've got a vehicle to go around places. No kids in the group. Just 4 east asian adults.

I need some ideas to make it a memorable experience - thank you!

Seems like after lease renewal, my apartment is forcing to use Aerwave's gigabit by putting the bill as the part of rent. I am currently on Astound gigabit which I started disliking lately so I don't mind trying it out, but is it any good?

I am currently living in US but may need to travel to Vancouver - Kamloops area in November. I currently have the default all season tire(M+S rated) that came with Tesla model Y, but is it good enough for few days in Canada? I have never needed winter tires in US.

I did hear about Coquihalla's road condition and plan to avoid that area.

About to pull trigger on my first Tesla. Leaning towards the combo in title, although QS is close second.

I rent in apartment and unfortunately its own parking lot is on waitlist... what are my other options for parking? it's tesla model Y.

Being Amazon employee I had a look at corporate parking lot too, but unfortunately they don't allow overnight.

I have my mind set on 2026 model Y premium rwd. The color I am not sure though since both ultra red and quicksilver look awesome. I even visited the showroom to look closely in person and I left there even more perplexed lol.

Does maintenance become deal breaker for red over long term? I don't plan on PPF

I honestly dig the looks of white interior so much, but how hard is it to maintain?

Edit: Probably going for Silver exterior White interior

I am in market for EV in west coast US with $50k ish budget. Had my mind set on 2026 Model Y premium, but I can't stop thinking about Polestar 4 esp with current deal... Don't feel like Tesla looks as premium on the outside. Software wise, I am not giving Elon $100 a month until level 3 FSD becomes a thing.

There's also a potential advantage/caveat that I am Canadian working on US visa, and I might be able to just bring the car back to Canada after few years where Polestar will continue to be in business for.

Need honest input from folks (no CEO shaming - I care about cars only). I am not heavy driver - just light commute and few hours road trip here and there.

Got way too complacent in current role and want to explore outside for career growth. Is the interview still the standard system design + leetcode? Or is the trend finally changing with AI adoption? Would appreciate some data points from recent interviewees in tech hub.

5yoe, currently in US big tech

My AMEX gold is going to be on 2nd anniversary soon and I am kinda 50/50 on whether I should keep it, since most of my spends are now with Robinhood's 3% CB card. I use fair amount of benefits but not $325 worth.

I called them up today about the fine print of cancellation and viability of retention offer to swing me towards keeping it, but they straight up said no retention offer. Is it numbers game where you have to contact different reps until you hit, or decided deterministically per account basis?
