I loved that car dearly.&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#x27;ve now got 94,000 miles on a 2018 Model 3 long range. It&amp;#x27;s more fun than the BMW in every way. Handles better, accelerates faster, it&amp;#x27;s much quieter inside. The sound system is much better than the HKs in the BMW. It&amp;#x27;s more comfortable. I can drive for 4 hours straight with no discomfort.&lt;p&gt;I don&amp;#x27;t have autopilot cuz my insurance guy wouldn&amp;#x27;t give me a discount if I bought it. Once he does, I&amp;#x27;ll add it.&lt;p&gt;Regarding service: It&amp;#x27;s on the 3rd set of tires and I replaced the cracked windshield.&lt;p&gt;That&amp;#x27;s it.</text><parent_chain><item><author>BluSyn</author><text>I have an early build 2018 Model 3 Performance. I have experienced almost zero quality issues. I use Autopilot frequently and have experienced phantom braking maybe 5 times ever in 3+ years, and certainly isn&amp;#x27;t a deal-breaker. In fact it&amp;#x27;s improved dramatically since I first got the car.&lt;p&gt;I feel like all I ever hear from outside the Tesla owner bubble is quality issues, complaints, weird problems I&amp;#x27;ve never experienced. When I talk to other Tesla owners, they also are confused by this phenomena, because the vast majority I&amp;#x27;ve talked to have the same experience as me; complete joy in the product, very few if any complaints at all. Especially relative to any other car I have owned or is available on the market today, I wouldn&amp;#x27;t recommend buying anything else.&lt;p&gt;When people talk about annoying Tesla fanboys, this is the core of problem. On the one hand you have the public perception of Tesla cars, based on reviews like this one. Then you have actual experience from the *majority* of owners being the exact opposite. Tesla certainly has issues, but so does GM, Ford, and every other auto maker. Reviewers rarely shout these issues in the headlines. But with Tesla it&amp;#x27;s always different.&lt;p&gt;What are we do to about this instead? Why is every review of Tesla highlighting the flaws, whereas every review of non-EV cars highlight the positives? How come Tesla owners don&amp;#x27;t get to write about their positive experiences without being called fanboys or shills?</text></item></parent_chain></comment><story><title>2021 Tesla Model Y review: Nearly great, critically flawed</title><url>https://www.cnet.com/roadshow/reviews/2021-tesla-model-y-review/</url></story>

Or when their car doesn&amp;#x27;t brake for no reason? Some things are simply not acceptable for ordinary users who are accustomed to other companies&amp;#x27; quality standards. Especially at comparable price point.</text><parent_chain><item><author>BluSyn</author><text>I have an early build 2018 Model 3 Performance. I have experienced almost zero quality issues.
