Yay it’s Maggie’s birthday today and I’d like to wish her the best.  I won’t say how old she is, she won’t like that and this year I really couldn’t think about what to get her so I bought tickets to see the Blue Jays on Friday.  We’re not baseball fans but it’s something different and thought that she’d enjoy the experience, seeing sports in person is always more fun.

Also in a funny coincidence as if Tesla knew it was Maggie’s birthday, I got the email that our Model 3 is ready if we want the RWD version.

I’ve known the price for a while now as some of my friends who currently own Tesla’s have gotten their notice already and frankly I don’t know if we’ll go ahead with it any more as I don’t want to spend that much money on a car.  To some cars are a status symbol, toy or whatever but for me they’re purely utilitarian.  I was hoping with the long range battery and AWD that the car would top out at $60k but looks like that’s a pipe dream, I bet AWD adds another ~$10k to the price. 🙁

What to do, yeah it’s very cool and I love the technology but I just don’t want to spend that type of money on a car unfortunately.
