    12.3 FSD Acceleration.

    It is in chill mode and still gets hit for harsh acceleration on the insurance app every time. Probably going to change insurance companies when my 6 month policy comes due. I do think that it is interesting that an insurance company app thinks FSD does not meet their definition of a careful...

    12.3 FSD Acceleration.

    You would think but Chill makes no difference. I think it is funny how many demerits the car gets from the app when in FSD.

    12.3 FSD Acceleration.

    I have had my Model Y for about 6 weeks and got 12.3 2 weeks ago. So far I am impressed with the improvements except for 2 things. One is new, the acceleration is pretty aggressive even in chill mode. I have insurance that requires an app be loaded on my phone to monitor driving. One of...

    2024 Ys 10% off already

    I think we agree for the most part. Question is, do they need more cash (profit) or to prop up the perception of a future software package that at this point in time is still BETA. I believe that once it becomes ready for Prime Time, any negativity that might come of using the current BETA...

    2024 Ys 10% off already

    How so? The development of the software cost money of course but it would be better to offer the software for "Free" than it would be to drop the price of a vehicle by a similar amount. Especially if they only offer EAP and expect a certain percentage to upgrade to FSD later. As long as they...

    2024 Ys 10% off already

    I am surprised that Tesla has not used the EAP and FSD as levers for incentives. Doesn't cost them a thing and yet buyers would look at it as a huge discount (assuming they want one or the other). I had been looking at used but with the prices on new with the incentives being lower than most...

    Cheaper to buy a new Model Y?

    I think that you nailed it. They are counting on the uninformed consumer. When I questioned the price of the first one that I looked at in person, the lot lizard opened the Tesla page to show me how much it would cost to purchase a brand-new Tesla. Once they were done, I showed them the...

    Cheaper to buy a new Model Y?

    Bentley in Indianapolis but it isn't just them. Carfax has 4 2023 MY LR for over $45K. Bentley actually has 2 Long Range for sale right now. One at $42,490 and one at $46,990. First, they told me that very few people qualify for the incentive (which may be true) and then tried to use the...

    Cheaper to buy a new Model Y?

    I have time. I was going to pick up a used one as a 4th vehicle for something new. Was thinking more used hoping to find one with EAP or FSD to mess around with. Unfortunately, all I am finding is base AP for prices too close to new even without the incentive. I would never look at any car...

    Cheaper to buy a new Model Y?

    I think that it is even worse than that. I can literally buy a Model Y LR brand new, without the incentive, for $45730. Most of the 2023 models I see on dealers lots are at least $42000 and some are over $45000. I have not financed a car in a lot of years but new car loans used to be lower...

    Cheaper to buy a new Model Y?

    I have been looking for a 2022 or 2023 Model Y for a couple of months now with little success. I am amazed at how much people (and Dealers) are asking for used vehicles when the price of new has come down so much. I can buy a Model Y out of Inventory (not even a Demo) for $44090 before the...

    Original Window Sticker

    The Chat is not very useful. I got the exact same response about calling for ext. 1700. It just kept saying that it did not get my input and then hung up. It seems like a fairly easy thing to automate, not sure why they make it so hard.
