First two week and first ~1000 miles in a new 2023 M3LR AWD

This is my first Tesla, prior to this car I was driving a much loved Subaru Impreza 2.5i that I bought new in 2007. However, it was getting older and I was increasingly having a difficult time justifying burning fossil fuels. So like many of you I put my wallet where my conscious was and took the pl...

Model Y - Initial Impressions - Delights, surprises, disappointments and concerns

Bought a 23 Model Y without a test drive (no test drive available, but have test driven an older MY 3 some time back). Some initial perspectives after a week.

Delights:
1. Very spacious- doesn’t look like it from outside. Leg room and head room are pretty good.
2. Smooth app experience in-car and o...

Just drove from my home in the Bay Area to Arizona for my first road trip in my 2022 Model S. For the most part the trip went well with the exception of the following:

1: Range was below what I expected given the car supposedly had a range of 405 miles. Charged the car to 100% before I left and ...

FSD Overfit to Southern California

Over the holiday break I drove to visit my brother in Glendale CA. FSD Beta is head and shoulders better in Southern Cal than here at home in Washington State!

Why I just traded ‘22 MX for ‘23 MY

The short version is the price difference between my trade-in value and the new car price was too big (~$30k) to justify keeping the X. Many of the extra ‘features’ on the X are actually not always that easy to live with, and I’m actually appreciating the simplicity of the Y at this point.

Model Y Long Range - New Owner Thoughts

Hi everyone,

I've been lurking here since we ordered our MY in May of 2022 and wanted to share my thoughts below as we just picked it up on 12/30.

Tesla Model Y build quality, manufacturing refinement and assembly

Merry Christmas, and hope everyone is having a good one!
I came into the brand with a pretty open mind, not really for or against. Very much wanting to move to EV's, being the overriding goal.
