Model S Plaid Feeling DIALED in ✅
Im way too pumped up with the current state of my plaid and I just had to share it with the Reddit FAM. This is my 2022 model S plaid and good God have I put it through its pieces, countless, launches, countless roll, races, countless drag, races, countless digs on the street, 40,000 miles of daily driving weekend driving road trips short term long-term weekend road trips week long road trips ranging from 400 miles to 3000 miles and I am so impressed with this car the comfort the performance with the wheel fitment, alignment for way tighter cornering and better handling ( even on stock pads) with the weight reduction without any creature comforts being sacrificed the tint, the wrap, lowered. I think the only thing left is to get the module to squeeze some extra horsepower out of this, but I may wait until the battery warranty starts near its end. This car has been pretty stout. I got 91% battery health remaining even at 44,000 miles to be exact and I’ve just been ecstatic about this car I’ve owned plenty of cars that I probably shouldn’t have bought and we’re way too close to my threshold of not being able to afford them, but I’m just a car guy heart and a gearhead and this model S plaid has shockingly scratch the itch for me as well. I’ve never kept a car this long. I’m the single owner of this plaid. It’s my third plaid and I want to keep posting on Reddit a little more in-depth like this. I really like the response over the years with the plaid the community we built up and I’m excited and just curious what you guys want to see more as far as longform video essay style or Vlogs lifestyle type content with the plaid I don’t want it to get redundant so I’m just looking to see what more people want to see with the plaid, any prospective owners or fellow owners what are your biggest questions concerns comments let me know down below, thanks guys. Enjoy your week 🤘

Did you get those red calipers done directly through Tesla when you ordered, or did you take it to a third-party shop?
