    If you were close I would take you. I am sure something will work out.

    FSD Beta v11.x

    Had exactly same issue last week. Rebooted to try and get FSD to download. Took forever for it to reboot, and when it came back, lost everything. Fill factory reset. I found a video by Tesla Joy where she had same thing and how to fix. Short answer is you have to redo your profile, then I had to...

    Your spot on. We have taken delivery of a MY and M3 and this forum had me so worried and anxious with the extreme detail of these checklist. Both cars were great. Problem is I started looking at all cars with the super detailed eye and found our Chevy and my dads Lexus and Honda were both...

    FSD Beta v11.x

    Me too. I am already happy with my FSD purchase. I love having a front row seat to this exciting journey. I suspect others are the same. You just hear from the ones complaining the most. I always laugh when people say FSD is not worth it. Guess it depends on the person. It is worth it to me and...

    I do not have the night driving "feature" yet. That could be bad if you drive late at night. I use autopilot all the time. Guaranteed 100 on an autopilot drive.

    One cool thing with Tesla insurance is teenagers are are priced no different. We have a non Tesla car with 2 teenagers. Savings was huge versus State Farm.

    It can be hard to get a 100 the first month, until you learn what dings the most. Tailgating and slamming on the brakes for a yellow light are the ones to be careful of. Acceleration doesn't count against you. You can floor it all you want.

    That was me with the $60 Model Y insurance per month. I think the difference is I'm in IL, not CA. CA has different rules for Tesla insurance where safety score is not used. We keep a 99-100 safety score. Pretty easy once you drive a few weeks and see what to avoid. Also, the Tesla quote will...

    This is normal. We have a 2019 M3 and MY. The car will make all kinds of noises during updates. Also can make noises when parked. Unlike a gas car, your Tesla is monitoring and doing things even when parked.

    Glad you had a great experience. Being the internet, the super negative posts get most of the attention. I bet most experiences are like yours. I know our 2 deliveries were great.

    1000% agree! Had my Model 3 since 2019 and still smiling on every drive. Hard to explain and sounds silly, but true 😎

    No worries. I am just in this thread because I'm excited for you all. I remember how exciting it was for me and my wife when we got our Model Y.

    Haha. It is a little crazy here, but I just put Autopilot on. Anytime autopilot is on, you don't get dinged for anything (basically automatic 100 score) :)

    I am the one that posted the insurance premium on our MY at $56. You are correct, that is with a 100 safety score. HOWEVER, the above is not how it works. Acceleration and speed do not count against you. You can floor it at every stop light and drive 90mph in a 65mph (or 30mph) zone and...

    While insurance is hard to compare from one person to another, in Illinois Tesla insurance has been super. Was with State Farm, and Tesla cut our insurance by around 60% and we upped liability coverage. This is for full coverage.
