My S60 weighs more than any model 3 in any configuration.

The model S at its heaviest is the same as a Ford Explorer.

The model S is lighter than every F150 that is not a V6 single cab. So you are saying the Model S is too heavy for the roads by the Ford Explorer or F150 are not?

How about all the fake rednecks I see every day in Dodge 3500 dualies well over 6000 lbs that don’t have a trailer hitch or a scratch in the bed those trucks have never seen a work site. They drive from the suburbs to a office parking deck see those every day all over the place.

Point is the increased wear is SUVs and trucks replacing midsized sedans but even mid-sized S60 are over 4000 lbs now.

Soccer mom’s in giant escalade,Yukon or expeditions all well over 5000lbs curb weight. With dadbod in a platinum edition new F250 4*4 that has never seen dirt let alone mud. Add in all the rolling coal Cummins bro bros also never seen a work site.

I own a ten year old diesel F250 it pulls a boat or a fifth wheel and that’s all it does or go off pavement to rig sites that no car could reach billed to the client at that. It sees under 5000 miles per year it serves a purpose and is the highest cost per mile of any of my stable of vehicles.. It’s bed is beat up from hauling dirt, cut firewood in other words it’s a truck used for truck stuff. I love my sedan and it gets driven most I am fully confident I will love my FSD model 3 even more than the Volvo.
