    Picture of your Model Y - Right Now!

    No winter shoes here and we had almost 12" of snow last weekend. Did fine in the show with the AS tires. Today was bath day...

    Phone Key and FOB - keycard still required to drive

    That is really odd. My understanding is that recent updates allowed the time to put the car in gear having used a keycard or other RFID without scanning in the interior center console reader. This works for me consistently and I will explain. I work in a space where I cannot have my phone...

    Small paint chip repair recommendation needed

    Wing or Spoiler. The Model Y Performance comes with a small carbon fiber spoiler on that edge of the hatch/trunk that would cover up that ding/chip. There are quite a few aftermarket companies that mfg similar (and bigger) spoiler/wings that you can install yourself with double sticky body...

    Small paint chip repair recommendation needed

    I hadn't thought about the wing, but that is a good option too! Functional and stylish! ;)

    Small paint chip repair recommendation needed

    Without question, I would do it myself. I haven't had the Tesla long enough to have looked for touch up paint yet. Not sure if it is available as readily as it is for other mfgs. I just touched up three smaller chips on the nose of my Raptor last weekend and ordered a strike zone PPF kit...

    Model Y LR Acceleration Boost still offered?

    It was an article from back in 2021 (I believe). I should have cut that part out with old pricing. My apologies. Pricing has change significantly over the past couple years. My intention was to convey the performance differences which have not changed.

    Small paint chip repair recommendation needed

    I have done chip touchup on most of my vehicles. That is a good size chip and you will likely not get it 100% without a respray. However, if you can get the touchup paint and watch a few U-toob vids, you will likely get it to the point where you won't notice it unless you know it is there...

    Model Y LR Acceleration Boost still offered?

    I have an MYP so I can't see the price but to supplement the above comment... "The Long Range Tesla Model 3 or Model Y is required for this firmware upgrade. These models represent the company’s sedan and SUV offerings. The 0-60 time of a Tesla Model Y with the Acceleration Boost is reduced...

    Flat Tire With No Cell Service?

    Hey, Estes was a perfect shake down run for us and we had two other adults with us. Left from Palmer Lake in the morning (90% charge) and picked them up in Castle Rock. Drove up to Estes the back way through Blackhawk and past St. Catherine's Chapel, Mt. Meeker. Stopped and had lunch at...

    Flat Tire With No Cell Service?

    I completely get it! So many people only base their input on their own situation. Which is fine, but things change at 10k plus elevation and in the wilderness and until you get there, sometimes you can't appreciate the severity of being stranded. We were just shooting the Elk at RMNP on...

    Flat Tire With No Cell Service?

    While communication is one aspect, logistics/environment are another. I have been in CO for 7 years now and am an avid off-roader. We have a Gen 3 Raptor (just sold our original Gen 1 Raptor a month ago to make space for the MYP) and a built Jeep and spend a great deal of time in places with...

    Picture of your Model Y - Right Now!

    I didn't take a picture at the charger... but we charged up there just after dusk. Went down to The Post and have a beverage while it charged before heading home. Didn't know they did the big Halloween bash at the Stanley but will defiantly go back up to check it out. Our trip was very...

    Picture of your Model Y - Right Now!

    Here we go gang... first shot to share publicly (that's not the rendering from my app) after our pickup yesterday evening. Meet Flash, with his brothers Odin and Rex. Rex is bashful and hiding in the garage.

    Colorado waiting room

    Thank you. We hadn't seen the color on the Y before we ordered and I really like it. Yes, sir. The Motor City team has been consistently good to work with for us. It was an easy, quick pick up. About 10 minutes of signing stuff (mostly for DMV) and that was it. Our rep offered any...

    Yeah, it is the "other side of the tracks" with the peasants over here. :) Relax people... it is a joke. We picked up "Flash" last night. I am not disappointed.

    I concur gentlemen. I am sure they are ready to dump all of the Ys for the rest of they year before the new models hit. I am SURE the S and X are not stacked up like that.

    Order date 9/29/23. Ordered at the Co Springs location. MYP Red with black interior. Had a VIN the following evening. Couple days later had a tentative delivery date range of 10/14-10/21. About 5 days later got the notification to select a delivery date... first available was 10/19 and I...

    Securing Modern Spare Tire in back?

    Sitting and waiting for a tow across a mountain pass.... or two mountain passes without reception isn't always the best option. Having the ability to "self-rescue" in CO is important. Granted, usually I am driving a dinosaur burner when off the beaten path, but, it is very possible I could be...

    Ride difference between model Y Long Range and Performance packages?

    I would highly suggest scheduling back to back test drives if your local site has the P available. We test drove the LR and then took the P overnight. I honestly liked the way the suspension felt on the P and we ordered ours when we turned it back in from the overnight test drive. We pick it...
