And now for something completely different!...

Good to hear. A guy that works for me just bought a Model 3 extended range last month. Prior to that I had driven a friends 90D. I am worried about long term things like the door handles and such but all new cars are getting so electronic that it is a worry about all new cars really. I live out in the country, weak or no cell signal and no Supercharging stations around so I set my sights on no sooner than a 350mi range electric car. They are getting close and I think the Model 3 Extended range taps the 300mi mark. I'm even thinking about going with Musk's Solar roof and batteries off the grid in my other house when I sell this one. Would be nice never paying an electric bill. Tesla has come far in a short while, hope the company survives.

The Model 3 RWD Long Range is EPA-rated at 325 miles of range, while my Performance version is rated at 310. The latest version of the Model S is rated at 370 miles, and Musk promises that 400 miles of range isn't far away.

As far as charging, this most recent trip included only the 3rd and 4th times I've visited a Supercharger in the 6 months I've owned the car. It charges overnight every night, so unless my daily driving exceeds about 275 miles, there's no reason to ever visit a Supercharger.

The Model S's door handles are electrically-operated, while the Model 3's are mechanical. The Model 3 incorporates everything Tesla has learned about building cars and is therefore a much better, more modern platform than the Model S or X, despite its much lower pricing The Model S is due for a design overhaul and the rumors are that it will incorporate the Model 3's more compact, more energy-dense batteries, which will allow more interior space (especially headroom) and more range at the same time.

I too am thinking of the Solar Roof and a Powerwall for our next house.
