    Holiday Update (2021.44.25.2)- A Big Disappointment

    The new update reinforces my long held theory that Tesla’s UI designers are graphically talented non Tesla owners, likely too young to have a driver’s license. How else do you explain the improvements in graphics, fonts, video games and gimmicks while (with a few exceptions) greatly...

    Progressive insurance Model Y

    Bait and Switch, pure and simple. Progressive did not make a "mistake", they just suckered many people like me to switch to them then more than doubled the rate at the first renewal. No explanation, no apology. My Y was increased by $757!! for 6 mo. My advice to all is to stay away from...

    New Model Y Very satisfying but NO HOMELINK

    Yes, the solution is simply to use the controller that you generally attach to the visor but attach it with velcro the back side of the display at the lower left hand corner. It is completely invisible and much more convenient than paying $300 to hunt for a button on the screen! People are...

    Screen Changes with New Update

    As someone who has been driving nothing but Teslas since early 2013 I want to say that this unfortunate GUI “update” is the first update that I regret receiving. The big, beautiful maps, already diminished in size from the S now are needlessly tiny while valuable real estate is given over to...

    Anyone else dislike the new UI?

    As someone who has been driving nothing but Teslas since early 2012 I want to say that this unfortunate GUI “update” is the first update that I regret receiving. The big, beautiful maps, already diminished in size from the S now are needlessly tiny while valuable real estate is given over to...

    How’s the Y

    Couldn't be happier. Flawless delivery last week (July 11 build date). Not a sports sedan like the M3 but drives like no other SUV.

    Surf Report

    Let’s consider the important questions in life. Will your longboard fit inside the Y? We have the rack on the 3 and it is beautiful but I hate the lower driving speeds, loading hassle, vulnerability and melted wax. Here is some data that may help. Don’t know why it is missing from the Tesla...

    Picked Up My Red MY

    For the record, I picked up a red Y on the 16th (build date July 11th) and it was near flawless. Only thing I can find is that the rear view mirror is not locked down right. Doesn't rattle when driving but will is not as secure as intended. Rear seats, paint, taillights, headliner etc.etrc...

    'Chrome delete' standard

    To me it's color dependent. Black looks much better with red or white paint in my opinion. Especially with the black wheel covers. . Also the black trim just looks more appropriate with the higher, more boxy vehicle. Sure hope they keep the delete since I ordered red paint.

    Whats the most miles anyone has driven without having to take it in for service?

    6,495 miles since January delivery and a total of 45min. at service center to replace rearview mirror that only deployed 85% of the time. I know that Tesla has produced some lemons but I have only driven Teslas (two S and one 3) over the last 6 years and they have been the most maintenance free...

    Bug with favourites and TuneIn

    Our favorites interface is buggy also.

    Temperature control

    After 6 years of interface improvements the real estate is still formatted to a stationary car instead of one that is moving and bouncing. I can't understand why something so simple and easy has not been addressed.

    Add to the minimalist look by allowing for a mostly blank screen option

    Great idea. Would also like a large (as in LARGE) button for turning AC on and off while driving at 70mph without going into tiny menu.

    Tall People Only: Model 3 Review

    It has been said that tall people have to shop for cars like other people shop for suits. It is not easy to find the fit and an inch can make a big difference. Below is the information and dimensions that all of the car reviewers have so far withheld: It is all good news! The three is...
