Did something cool today… I do Uber and Lyft full time and had been renting a Tesla for way too long. Finally got my own ride and I’m absolutely loving it.
Congrats! I’m hoping to get one too, maybe even today if things work out.

Oh, just that it makes driving for work so much easier and cheaper in the long run compared to renting.

Yeah, renting can really add up. Owning your own car is a whole different vibe.
How does it handle on long shifts? Any issues with charging?

Honestly, it’s been great so far. Charging hasn’t been an issue for me, but I plan my stops carefully.

Do you mostly use superchargers or charge at home?

Mostly superchargers since I’m always on the go. Home charging would be ideal, though.
How long were you renting before deciding to buy?

Way too long… almost a year. The rental costs were just eating into my profits.

Wow, a year of renting? That must’ve been rough on your wallet. What made you finally decide to buy?

Yeah, it wasn’t cheap. I crunched the numbers and realised owning was way more cost-effective long term.

Not having to worry about returning it or dealing with rental limits. Plus, it’s MY car now.

Do you get any perks for using it with Uber or Lyft?
