I can't believe I am considering selling my SR Model 3 and buying another LR RWD Model 3, like my very first Red one. But here I am...
In this video, I am off to my first meet up with the Tesla Owners of Tennessee Club and I also discuss the possibility of selling my SR car and buying another LR RWD car.
Enjoy!

Great to see you again, interesting meetup and it's great you were able to get Blake, the club president. Loved the train too. Good luck with your thinking on the next car. Keep up the good work.

Just subscribed! Your videos are perfect. Though they could be a tad more technical, there are plenty of "nerds" to provide that kind of info. LOVE your P3D, can't wait to get mine. I am in a different part of the country so I hope you don't mind that I spec mine exactly like you did yours!!

This is just my opinion but, take it as you may, I think you should keep the SR or even if you can pay to upgrade to SR+ if it will ease you travels just a tad bit save the 15K or so. What ever you decide to do I support you. Keep those videos coming!!!!

All About Tech thanks! I did end up keeping the SR (it’s still a SR+) so after buying Autopilot, I am going to keep it and I’m pretty sure it will stay a SR+ at this point. 👍

Hey Marc! I take it you kept the SR? Would love to hear another update on the satisfaction of owning the SR compared to vin89 and your p3d. I've come to appreciate that the cheapest Tesla with modern features may in fact be the best one. Thinking about an Sr+ after selling my LR rwd a couple months ago.
@marc_benton
@marc_benton 4 года назад
Hey Joe... I am actually planning a video on just that. After now almost 6 months of ownership of the SR (SR+) and at least 5 road trips, I am convinced that the SR+ is the best buy that Tesla has to offer. I ended up buying Autopilot and since then, the car is perfect. Tesla also kept my range at 240miles so essentially I have an SR+... it has every feature than an SR+ has. As soon as I can get time to film and edit, I am going to do so. Thanks for the push to do it. :)

Wow, that's some knowledge about the normal AP on your car. Our 3 has both EAP and FSD, so I can't tell the difference over it's updates in the past 9 months, especially pre NoA. My Mother's SR+ though... it has AP, but no FSD, so not a EAP. Now I want to see if her's does the same thing as yours, for the lane change. Our Model S has AP1 and it does Lane Change, but doesn't have NoA, since it's too old. Time to steal my Mom's car for some testing.

Hmmm. Is your time really worth all that cash (including taxes and fees)? Maybe just put the money down on a performance Y reservation. I would go big or go home. Based on your 89 to P3D upgrade, seems like you’re not going to be happy with LR either. Bump up that tire pressure to 45ish and maybe get a front spoiler to eek out some more miles. Also lowering springs. Why are the aero caps not on if you care so much about range? You can still make good YT content with the model most people can afford. I know that FSD and charge rates are tempting. When they downgrade your speakers you can still do aftermarket. You can also opt to upgrade to SR+ and get more battery.

Ted Kidd agreed. I actually turned off auto loans change on our X and on my P3D (before I sold it) because it was annoying. But I did like being able to signal and have the car move over without taking auto steer off.

I also have a SR M3 my car is software limited for 220 miles and I do not have maps with live traffic but my heated seats work and I have immersive sound. Under the Tesla icon it says standard plus but tesla rep told me it was already downgraded. I’m just curious if your car is the same? Extremely happy with it but also tempted about getting a long range although I don’t think I really need it, just nice to have for road trips.

It's tempting. Just hard to justify the cost difference. I owe less than $29k on my SR and to think of spending over $15k more just to get the range (and yes, FSD) makes the decision very hard.
@jrcase7511
@jrcase7511 5 лет назад
I noticed your battery range showed 224 miles and it looked to be full or very close to it. Since you have not been downgraded yet, shouldn't it read closer to 240 miles? Maybe I just couldn't see the battery gauge close enough.

How much did you pay to get Autopilot from Standard range? And was it after Tesla downgrade your model 3? Paying only for autopilot kept you to get 240 miles? Is it intentional or do you think it's not supposed to be? Thanks!
@marc_benton
@marc_benton 4 года назад
J H I paid $3k for AP and they never downgraded me to a SR. I didn’t do it on purpose but my guess is since Tesla’s cost is the same for the SR and SR+, and now that I have AP, it’s probably not worth it to them to worry about downgrading my car. I essentially paid $1500 less for my SR+.

@@marc_benton Good to know, I'm waiting my SR. I didn't add AP for the order, will see if I need that :) 1 more qq, did Tesla offer you AP or you paid voluntarily after delivery? Did you ever get the notification after delivery that Tesla is going to downgrade so be prepared?
@marc_benton

J H no, Tesla never offered AP to me...I did it on my own. And yes, I got an email that my car would be downgraded but it never happened and I have a feeling it’s because I bought AP. My car also has working fog lights, which no SR+ currently do.

Would be curious as to how much you can get for your SR with AP. I would guess that with the tax credit going down tomorrow, your potential customer base will be going up. How much does the guy want for a used LR with 12K? These cars really seem to keep their value. P.S. I haven’t been changed from SR+ to SR yet either. I know it will eventually happen but hoping Tesla drags it out 😂 When they do finally downgrade it, I might pay to upgrade it back and grab AP along with the extra miles. I suppose I will see how it is without the 20 miles first but honestly it’s not a true 240 range vehicle - more like 200. After they flip that switch I bet it stays about the same
@marc_benton
@marc_benton 5 лет назад
Yea, I am still in talks with the SC to make mine a permanent upgrade to a SR+. Those extra 20 miles would make a difference if I decide to keep it, plus it's worth more as a SR+. The LR RWD car I'm looking at is $44k.
@stevelovesemmy
@stevelovesemmy 5 лет назад
Marc - it’s possible that the SR’s delivered prior to the software being available won’t downgrade due to Mulroney sticker law evidently. That’s a fair deal for a long range and they would probably not be upside down from the tax credit.

@@marc_benton So when you look at the Tesla icon page, the one that has links to the Owner's Manual, it says "Standard Range" and not "Standard Range Plus"? Which software version? I'm at 2019.20.4. The reason I ask is I bought a "Standard Range Plus" and $3k for basic AutoPilot. There have been some rare cases of it not supporting a turn signal initiated lane change, primarily to the left lane. But soon enough, it works both left and right. Also, Navigate on AutoPilot seems to work just fine.
