    Model Y Hitch Receiver: Rise Limit Question

    Happy to report two successful towing trips using a rhino hitch adjustable ball hitch with a 7-in rise and an Airstream Basecamp 16'. The only problem I had was with the rhino hitch extending a significant distance below the hitch receiver which caused it to drag and scrape badly on driveways...

    Model Y Hitch Receiver: Rise Limit Question

    Love the Altos! They're just so dang hard to get a hold of down here in southern California, and when they pop up for sale on one of the related FB groups, they tend to sell same day! I spoke with the service manager at the local Tesla service center about the rise issue. It was his take that...

    Model Y Hitch Receiver: Rise Limit Question

    Why did you replace the factory hitch? To get the 3.5" rise? I wonder what the max rise folks have done with the factory hitch is. I'm tempted to rent a Basecamp or a Jayco and give it a shot with an adjustable height hitch.

    Chill vs Sport in a 3P+

    Totally agree that the Sport pedal map on the M3P sucks and would love to find a way to make the first third a little more like the MS Standard mode, then ramp to full power from there. That sensitivity in the first bit is really awkward and clumsy. My car is in service right now, I'll ask the...

    Model Y Hitch Receiver: Rise Limit Question

    Coupler is 19"*, so still need a 4" rise. What's the max rise you've used successfully and safely with your Y?

    Model Y Hitch Receiver: Rise Limit Question

    None of the tow trailers available on Outdoorsy for rent near me seem to be compatible with the Y. Closest was a 2020 Jayco Flight SLX 174BH Baja Edition, UVW 2945 But the coupler height is around 22". With our 15" receiver we'd need a 7" rise. So it's out. It seems like the receiver...

    Model Y LR AWD Towing Uhaul 6'x12' Cargo Trailer

    Thanks everyone for the helpful replies. This was a very educational experience. First challenge: the rise needed to tow this trailer exceeded the Tesla spec of max 0.75" rise. The 2" ball hitch U-Haul sold us had a rise of 1". Even with this much rise, the trailer still wasnt fully level...

    Help me with the math for a U-Haul trailer

    Has anyone else had success with towing a UHaul cargo trailer with MY? I am thinking of renting their largest, the 6' x 12': U-Haul Equipment specifications: 6' x 12' Cargo Trailer We are taking delivery on Saturday, the MY will come with the tow hitch option, but I'm reading that it won't...

    October 2021 Order Delivery Dates

    Just kidding! Mine is now September - November. That will be a full year since order. WTF are they doing over there?

    No Safety Score

    Great suggestion, thank you. I'll double check this. Does this include the new invasive cabin camera data collection?

    October 2021 Order Delivery Dates

    Just checked and my window pulled up from August/September to: Estimated Delivery: July 18 - August 29 I guess it's something. If it arrives in August it will have been 9 months since order. Meanwhile I want to change the color from grey to blue but there's no way in hell I'm going to...

    No Safety Score

    Same issue as the rest of you - i've opted in and had a Safety Score section in my tesla mobile app since last fall, but it's never computed a score: I've emailed them in the past and they were like *shrug*. I just emailed them again, that email address if anyone else would like to ask for...

    October 2021 Order Delivery Dates

    This has been ridiculous. We also ordered a Y last November. Our EDD settled on March 2022. Then we moved, and called to update our address, and it went to TBD. After calling various delivery centers two more times, it's now showing.....AUGUST/SEPTEMBER. That's almost a full year. Not ok!

    Anyone else can't get Safety Score to show up in the app?

    This is so flaky. I finally had the Safety Score option show up in the Tesla app. After two drives, it was still blank with no score. Force quitting and restarting the app didn't change it. I signed out and back into the app, and now safety score is gone entirely from the app! Tesla...
