Brand New (to Me) Taycan!

Hey all, I've been lurking on this forum for a few months. Last week, I became the proud owner of a 2022 CPO Taycan 4S. 9.5K miles, sport chrono, rear axle steering, torque vectoring plus, PDCC, jet black with grey interior RS Spyder wheels, HUD. Dealership replaced battery and tires for no additional charge.

Flew into Austin to pick it up, then drove it back home to NC (with stops in Shreveport and Birmingham). First time ever driving an EV, and getting up the learning curve took the better part of the first two days. Smooth sailing after that.

I love everything about the car, so far. Steering is precise and feedback is great (even better when I put it in Sport Plus). The long road trips felt great, no sense of fatigue. My prior car was a BMW M760i so I'm sacrificing some passenger and cargo space, but with two of three kids away at college, I'm not sure I will need it.

Keen to hear what tips/advice you have for me to keep the car running in its best condition. Plan is to sell the car as it approaches the end of its CPO warranty and flip into a well spec'ed 2025+ 4S or GTS.

Shout out to Joeleen @ Porsche Austin. She was a delight to work with. And thanks to everyone here, the forum posts helped me sort through the alphabet maze of options to determine which ones I really needed.
