I gotta say I love Rich’s humor. Man he always has me laughing.

1:17 KZfaq subtitles be like: “I went over a few things like range comparison between my ex and my ass” Me: “holdup”

When can I subscribe to Rich Rebeard?

Rich I don't care about Tesla's, but I love the videos because they crack me up. Especially tweeking the fan boys. Good stuff.

That's a lotta maintenance considering it's a maintenance free car

I truly do not understand why people keep propagating the notion that EV's need no maintenance. Good vid. Rich. and EV Garage.

Dude, let us help you with your beautiful mangey beard. -Eric

Chad is just invaluable. He knows everything that there is to know about working on these :D

Chad seems like the nicest guy in the world :D

@RichRebuilds I wish I watched this Playlist earlier. Today is officially ELEVEN DAYS since I ordered my used Tesla Model S. I specifically picked one that was listed as at a local dealer and I am picking it up (so it doesn't even need to be transported further than their storage place because I guess they don't keep them on site?). No idea what the delay is. Once you make payment, they become ghosts. I'm on my 3rd potential delivery date already, all I've been told is that there's been a "logistics delay". I tried to call their call center on Friday and was left on hold soo long the system gave up and just told me to leave a message. This is STRESSFUL. Your videos are the only thing keeping me sane over here. Update: Got a 4th delivery date and NO ONE can explain why. Keep in mind, the car is not being shipped. I specially selected a local car. I have been insuring a vehicle I don't have for almost a month now....

Really enjoy hearing you and Chad go through the steps/issues. Not a Tesla owner, just a fan.

9:42 the simplisafe tone for door opening... thought I was going crazy, could've sworn it was my door, was trying to figure out which door was opening and why my app wasn't notifying me until I played the video back twice lol.

Hey Uncle Rich, my lease is nearing its end on my gas car and I’ve been watching the prices of Early Model S’ dip lower and lower as the days pass. My question is should that be something to consider for my first EV to be used as a Daily Driver and if I decide to go that route what are some things I can expect from a Model S with 70K+ miles on the dash? Thanks in advance if you can provide some insight!

4:30 ring notification had me looking around for my phone wondering what happened.

It really annoys me that fanboys don't seem to be objective in many cases. I think you are doing a real service to the Tesla and EV community by be pragmatic and honest about your experiences. This aids in setting realistic expectations about what to expect when considering an EV and applying consumer focussed pressure onto a company to improve their behaviours and interactions. The quickest way for a company to and grow improve is to listen to the community focussed on your products and incrementally improve where it is feasible to do so. This helps all stakeholders, especially the fan boys! Thank you so much for what you do :)

Hey Rich, great video as always. I have a suggestion for the mechanical brake corrosion issue. How about suggesting to TESLA to create a API to have the cars computer set a interval of using the mechanical brakes once in a while so that they get hot enough to keep from corroding from lack of use? The API can be either set on a schedule or selected by the owner to perform the action which would show up on the screen as such. Just a thought. Stay safe!

Here is an idea for you: A Tesla powered lawn mower so we can't hear old neighbors mowing everyday.

"Useless does not mean valueless" 😘

I love your humour, keep it up especially now when we're all stuck inside, unless in Sweden.

I've done the rapid mate on the side of the interstate when Tesla Service failed to put any of the bolts in.Wonderful bunch.

I rarely comment, but when you said "That's a New England battery right there" I lost it! 😂 Our sweet rust bucket home.

Idea: create custom Tesla parts and sell them on this channel. You are a f’ng good salesmen

Is this still you most useless car now that Delores has no supercharging?

I hadnt even thought about the reduced brake lifetime due to nonuse!

DAMN!!!! Did y’all see that dudes falcon get hit by the semi????

How'd this just premier an hour ago? I'm pretty sure i watched it like 4 hours ago.

Electrified Garage - Awesome!! I recall when our boy Richie B used to fix cars with his wife’s steak knives 🤣😆

Been driving a 96 honda accord i bought for 900 dollars for pas 3 years. Spent maybe 300-400 on repairs. It's not good on gas, but i can get two more accords for he price you paid to service a Tesla. I fail so see where the savings are or how it's "cheap" to drive a Tesla.

Hey Rich, why is the first video uploaded today private? When I clicked the link KZfaq said it was private and that I'm unable to watch.

What about placing stainless steel insect mesh in front of the air filter to prevent mice/rats eating it? Love the video, great info. I hope I never have to pull out my battery.

Chad didn't use one butter-knife to remove the battery. Rich is going Hollywood.

Thank you Rich for proving that even cool dudes can have difficulty growing a beard.

Good vid. I like ones like this where we can actually learn something from the professionals. No kitchen knives, Waa Waa.

17:48 "And children, this is how Uncle Elon makes new Teslas."

How are you so concentrated to not pay attention when A MAN WITH PIZZA ENTERS THE GARAGE

Rich - your videos have great narration, and even better comedic timing !! I always chuckle at the lamest things.

you need to be hired by a marketing firm. your sponsored ad drops crack me up.

Your simply safe open door sound keeps making me think someone opened my doors lol! Got me like three times.

"We believe in a green ($$$) future"... like Squarespace!

Jeebus, Tesla needs to fix this extremely common control arm problem.

That bird got absolutely smoked by the semi truck lol

12:00 talk about Breaks on EV. Interesting. Thanks Rich

$1800? Pfft! You need to own a BMW to get truly heart stopping "maintenance" bills.

“The stupid dance the x does.. I hate that” lol

If Tesla can’t fix it, we better fix it ourselves! But Tesla is a great car. Still love my Model 3 and love making it unique!

Where can I get an S for 20k? I’ll take two

Rich looks like Deji/ ComedyShortsGamer with a college degree

next project needs to be a cummins swapped tesla

Rich you gotta get an outdoor cat at your house to keep all these mice away from living in your cars.

I love this man's grammar. It's quite Rich.

Ordinary hero walking in at 17:23 you are the real MVP.

For the first 30 seconds, I thought I was watching Rich Rebeards.

What is it a building AC duct filter you cut down ?

After much ado I can finally see someone smart with the borescope...

Is that the original version of Jayz a million and questions playing in your fast forward play?

clueless here: control arms for toyotas appears to be about 50 to 150usd/control arm. Why is tesla so much more?

I’m telling you rich! This is the best channel on KZfaq, Love the show. I’m the biggest fan from Canada.

17:24 Pizza arrives = best part EVER

Dat transition to ad be buttery smooth as always

Good info. Thanks

4.33 Dogs go crazy and I check my front door. No one is there?

Hey, hold on a hot minute.... Didn't I watch this video about 3-4 hours ago? Yes, I see you Uncle Rich. I've got a joke for you: Tesla has a Model S. Tesla has a Model X. Why doesn't Tesla have a Model E? Because Tesla fanboys don't get any!

These videos have convinced me to say no Tesla...NO!

Love your sense of humor, Rich! And your car dance was cool too!

So they are living more luxurious than I am in their mouse house.

How much was the battery coolant coupler?

What if you got that ceramic coated? Would that help with the stuck handles?

Total cost 1800$... EV DOESNT NEED A MAINTENANCE

Did those coolant connectors fail due to multiple battery removals? Seems like a silly complication for what could be a two hoses with a clamp which would last 20 years. How often do they expect the battery to be removed? Chances are if it needs a replacement then it also needs new coolant anyway.

Is this a new model X? one that can use the supercharger?

Real talk I learned a TON from watching this video and the one before about what to prepare for with a used Model X. Thanks Rich!

I just tune in to hear your square space pitch it's hilarious

love the burner sample!!!

Hi Richard, great video and a great SHOP. Take care guys and God bless you and your families.

I’ve been following you since the first episode of the Delores rebuild. Your humor always makes my day I thank you for all the laughs man keep up the great work!

What about putting threaded rods on mounting holes to allow alignment to be much more precise? I have used this on head gasket installs

Your guys are real pros at EG. You are in good hands.

Are the mice electric

Love to see knowledge in a mechanic like this

Gave you a thumbs up for the first minute alone!

Rich your mechanic is a Gem

Wow! Thanks!

Keep on mocking Tesla, I enjoyed watching you making fun of tesla😂😂

Thanks for dropping some knowledge on us about the model X.

Can you please provide a link for the brake pad supplier? Thanks

Shit, that squarespace ad with all those puns at tesla. I freaking loved it

This also happens to my Manual transmission cars.

That ring doorbell chime was a Tesla fan boy rubbing Covid-19 on Rich front door knob lol... Just joking, Be safe

Superbly informative and, Rich, you do an excellent job of narrating and presenting.

isnt the hepa filter glued so it is hepa certified?

6:41 There you go insulting our jolly EV cherub.

You’ve done Joe Rogan and your the funniest guy on KZfaq hands down... how do you not have a million subs? You should have a few million

“They all dribble when ya take them out!” 😂🤣🤣

My dad taught me that you have to use the brakes on the car from time to time, otherwise they will corrode and be less efficient. I would often engine break in a lower gear on a normal car in order to not brake, but not using the brakes makes them corrode like he shows in the video. Because Tesla's car all have built in engine breaking when you let go off the accelerator, lots of energy is conserved back into the car, but at 3000 miles a brake pad starts rusting "naturally". I've been looking to get the X, but now I need after market brakes so it doesn't rust. Perhaps the brake pads is the next upgrade for factory teslas.

Would you recommend budgeting a couple thousand a year for maintenance?

Love that thumbnail!

Do you have a video on how to adjust the falcon doors.... my 2020 is sooo bad its bin to the sc 4 times now and just gets worse..

Can i make a suggestion to make the battery refit easier . Make two locating dowels once the battery is dropped screw a dowel either side . Jacking the battery up should be easier using the dowels as opposed to using a camera to check the pins are located .

All I can think watching this is: Tech companies, you have absolutely no idea what you’re getting yourself into.

*Bright ideas:* 1. Build yourself YOUR OWN FAST CHARGER. Hack it. SELL THEM. 2. Build yourself a REMOTE CHARGER COUPLER, so that you can use two remote chargers at the same time. You'll have to hack them. SELL THEM.
