SELLING THE CHEAP MODEL S PLUS ROAD TRIP DELIVERY TO THE NEW OWNER

EV Channels Review

This video documents the delivery of a 2013 Tesla Model S P85+ to a new owner. The hosts, Kyle and Alyssa, embark on a road trip from Rocky Mount, North Carolina, to Myrtle Beach to hand over the vehicle. The Model S, with over 113,000 miles, was sold for $27,800, a price considered a great deal given the car's condition, despite its age and limitations like slower supercharging above 15% and the absence of Autopilot. A significant portion of the video details a rather unpleasant experience with a spilled case of beer in the car, leading to maggots and a persistent smell, which was eventually resolved using an ozone machine. The delivery itself was successful, with the new owner, Jerry, expressing excitement. The hosts then return home in a Model 3 Performance, encountering minor navigation issues and testing a new Supercharger location in Smithfield. The review highlights the enduring appeal of older Model S variants for budget-conscious buyers, while also showcasing the practicalities of EV road trips and charging infrastructure.
