    ‘22 MY in ultra sub cold tips?

    Dont judge me. I like to collect facts and experiences and develop my own conclusions…again for me. Speak for yourself…only. Back to the topic…I have little confidence in the MY’s ability to stop with the 19” package. I need snow tires or chains for Colorado. Have a nice day

    ‘22 MY in ultra sub cold tips?

    Respectfully, not too much thought for me. I’m an engineer and Colorado is way different than Minnesota. My county is 4,000 to 14,000 feet, lots of turns, cliffs, few guard rails, we even have a glacier. You slide in the wrongs spot and they find you next spring. It’s wise to be research and...

    You must be a serious snow expert. Any recommendations on snow tires, studs, chains? Do you do all 4 wheels? How about driving style?

    ‘22 MY in ultra sub cold tips?

    UPDATE: This is the first BIG cold snap with our new MY….thanks for the advice! I have notice that it charges really really slow. As for the driving, it feels sure footed with the traction control and all (can that be turned off?). I even tried to break it loose without success. However...

    Seat covers

    OE is very sticky in summer. Love the sheepskin covers I go so far…but it’s winter now

    ‘22 MY in ultra sub cold tips?

    Hey Now! In Colorado and bracing for the cold snap. It’s supposed to drop over 50 degrees today (down to -8 without wind chill)…reminds me of the Day After Tomorrow movie. I’ve been thinking about leaving the climate control on with the car plugged in of course. Any other tips for this cold...

    Brand new model Y doors wont close due to window glass issue

    Thanks for the posting…very thoughtful of you to check this out. I’ve had a similar problem of “ghost in the machine” where the windows roll up but partially roll down again.

    Further discussion and analysis on why the yoke is not good

    I think the yoke is the reason I cant get an MX test drive...perhaps people hate it, no??

    Further discussion and analysis on why the yoke is not good

    yep, i agree! On screen shifter would suck. I love my stalks!

    Further discussion and analysis on why the yoke is not good

    Nope, i dont remove my hand…I just tap with my finger. Plus i have more choices, delayed wipe, slow or fast and wash. Sure some things on the wheel and some on the yokes…More controls near your hands without looking works for me.

    Further discussion and analysis on why the yoke is not good

    YES, I love driving with left hand at 12:00 on the wheel! I used to race off-road and and it’s easier to turn rapidly either left on right with a solid grip on the wheel. Right hand on the shifter or turning breke…would love to right a rear steering “throttle that would shift power from one...

    Further discussion and analysis on why the yoke is not good

    Agreed! I’m holding off getting MX for just that reason….AND Tesla seems unwilling to offer me a test drive for my $150K. I seriously hope they dont screw up the Roadster and Cybertruck with this yoke nonsense.

    Is the newly refreshed model x available for test drive at tesla sale center?

    Hmmm, so Tesla wants one to buy a $120K+ car without being able to drive it first?? ….and the $250 deposit is non-refundable, too?? Are you allowed to even look at one?
