    Registering used car in app

    Bought a used MS from a dealership and then did the whole ownership swap thing on the Tesla app. I guess original owner didn't remove the car from his/her account. Took Tesla 3 days to complete the swap.

    Buying Model S LR from private seller and driving it across the country

    As long as you have him remove the car and transfer it to the new owner with email them it should be instant. I did this recently since I bought another Tesla with a separate account and transferred to myself with another Tesla

    Apparently model Y paint mismatch is normal

    I think I need to bring it to the service center to show them the difference compared to other white Y's or 3's they have around.

    Apparently model Y paint mismatch is normal

    How does Tesla even have 2 different tones of white paint? Unless the rear bumper absorbs paint differently than all the other panels of the car? I'm not even upset at this issue but just found it hilarious that this issue is normal.

    Apparently model Y paint mismatch is normal

    Per my local service center, it's normal for body panels of the model Y to have different paint tones. Here's my model Y with a different shade of white on the rear bumper than the rest of the car. "I have escalated your concern and unfortunately we are unable to assist due to this being...

    Diminish value claim - need referral

    Update for anyone who's still interested. The other insurance company sent me an email a few weeks back asking if I would be willing to settle for an amount that's slightly less than what I had asked for. I didn't want to waste anymore time so I accepted. It was about 75% of what I asked for.

    this is strange I drive my MYP like I stole it every chance I get. I also drive it avg 75-80 on the hwy. My lifetime avg is at 310wh/mi so far after 380 miles. Also, do you have sentry mode on during the day? Other settings like cabin heating left on? When I leave sentry mode on at work, it will...

    Model Y Performance Energy Consumption Is Pretty High

    I do not baby my P3D or the PYD I drive 75-80mph on hwy and have fun on regular street. I don't have heater or AC on most of the time. Lifetime on the P3D is around 290wh/m and seems like the Y will be the same.

    Quick Notes on Y, Post-Delivery

    Rear visibility is terrible on the Y to be honest. It's a tiny window from the rear view mirror.

    Took delivery today: White Performance Y & size comparison vs. P3D

    No too much of a hassle having one charger on the left side. I was using the Tesla travel charger for awhile, before adding a chevy bolt to the family. So I bought another charger that can accommodate all 3 EVs. Our commutes are no longer than 40 miles a day so it's not too hard to have all cars...

    Did home delivery today. Ordered Jan 29th 2020 White with black interior AP Haven't had a chance to take it out for a drive yet due to busy work schedule at home. The 3 looks tiny next to the Y.
