    The number of used Tesla 3/Y available is staggering

    The number of used Tesla 3/Y available is staggering

    Lease residuals are probably your best bet and it’s about 53% on IX if I recall correctly or slightly worse than x5. I recall i3 didn’t hold value well. FYI carmax came back with an offer on Tesla MYP which was $44k vs Carvana at $49k and Honda dealership at $58k.

    The number of used Tesla 3/Y available is staggering

    This was my own personal experience but in my seven months of ownership I had four service experiences and only one was mobile. First was fixing some headlight alignment issues. No biggie but had to book a month out upon delivery of vehicle. Next two were related to front passenger seat...

    The number of used Tesla 3/Y available is staggering

    Yeah not sure if it was all the glass. The double pane window kept noise out but when the kids would slam door or even when talking in the car, there was a weird acoustic situation in the car that I didn’t love. Also the whine of the motors was tolerable but would love if it was somehow...

    The number of used Tesla 3/Y available is staggering

    Yeah I’m mixed on rivian. No way I’d pay the updated price for my configuration at $96 (I’m at $80). I have not seen interior in person but from what I can online it seems comparable to model x, below IX (if fully optioned with the high end leather). I think the functionality looks amazing...

    The number of used Tesla 3/Y available is staggering

    Just an update. So went to Honda dealership and they did appraisal and were upfront that they know these model y’s sit and so would only offer what they think they can make a profit on at auction. But they also didn’t want to hose me so said they would offer $58k. Hopefully they don’t screw...

    The number of used Tesla 3/Y available is staggering

    Im not under water in any scenarios on MYP but if I looked at monthly cost of ownership it would look pretty horrible if I sold to CVNA. If I could get closer to $59k it would feel more like a month to mount) lease program. The goal for IX would be to keep it for five years minimum.

    The number of used Tesla 3/Y available is staggering

    I think dealers are being extra cautious and I'm paying for their overbidding mistakes. As for the IX I had no illusions that it would hold its value. It isn;t perfect but was one that meets my requirements and planned to run into the ground. I stil have an R1S on order that I haven;t...

    The number of used Tesla 3/Y available is staggering

    So its a 2022 MYP with 8,460. No modifications other than PPF on front of hood through A pillar and some PPF on rear doors. Perfect condition. No scratches. Never smoked in. No accidents. No check engine lights. Garaged the entire time of ownership. Only used hand carwash. Using KBB (I...

    The number of used Tesla 3/Y available is staggering

    Well it looks like I hosed myself. I have a new car ready for delivery this weekend and was going to sell my 2022 MYP w/ 8000 miles. The offers from Carvana, Vroom, Driveway were all awful vs. just a month ago. The Cargurus offer was about $5k over the Carvana offer but still really low...

    Tail Lights Not Working - Any Solutions?

    Was hoping there was a diy method or something. Initially Tesla app said a three week wait for service which basically means I’m taking a major risk every time I drive the car (which is primarily early morning or at night). After complaining on the app about this and how I have no other means...

    Tail Lights Not Working - Any Solutions?

    Nah. BMW IX already in transit but three months later than expected. Would like this fixed before I sell it (unfortunately prices have been dropping vs peak opportunity during the summer). Panel gaps and falling off spoilers don’t super bother me. The seat sensors (safety), the tail lights...

    Tail Lights Not Working - Any Solutions?

    Yes, I fooled around with the lights. When set to manually on, it was still off. I was hoping turning it off and on again would reset the situation but did not.

    Tail Lights Not Working - Any Solutions?

    Driving home from work tonight I got several high beams from behind me on the highway. Then while in traffic, someone rolled their window down and started yelling that my lights are off. I turned of the vehicle when I got home and when turning it back on, it still doesn’t work. I rebooted...

    One thing you LOVE and DISLIKE about your Model Y

    Like: one pedal driving. Dislike: built like crap that requires servicing and complete inability to get service without waiting a month even when they are safety issues. I cannot wait until I get out of this vehicle and into something else.
