On February 1-3 I drove from Bellingham. WA to Indio, CA in my standard dual motor, long range MY mostly using I-5 ,1420 miles spending two nights in hotels. I used 484 kW that cost me $162.96. I drove 5-10 mph over the speed limit and it was cold as West Coast cold goes. My tires were 1-2 lbs...

I was in the cleaning business for 20 years, my new light colored airplane seats suffered permanent stains caused by blue jeans, jeans that I've worn for 4-5 years, I tried everything and couldn't move more than about 30% of the stains. The manufacturer said, that had never happened before! In...

TESLA EXPLAIN WHAT IS HAPPENING! HAHAHHAHAHHA VERY FUNNY

I believe it is best to reject this car. Not only for your peace of mind but also so that Tesla really gets this financially. They are doing a huge disservice to loyal customers and supporters. If they continue to prioritize sales and revenue over customer loyalty, they will be in trouble when...

I don't recall seeing specs for the MY. Where do you find this information.

I have a loaded Y LR Performance on order but my biggest concern in interior wind and road noise. The performance comes with 20" wheels and the regular LR comes with standard 18" wheels or optional 19" wheels. Is it correct to assume that road noise with be greater with 20" wheels than with the...

WOW I didn't really realize this. Well then even more, weather or not I accept delivery of a Model Y will depend on the noise level. I know some say that wind noise is just more apparent in an electric car where road and wind noise isn't masked by the ICE. However I know for sure that my M3 is...

Yes thank you, excellent information, however what I really want is a quiet Model Y.

Thank you

Yup, my 2018 Model 3 LR is far too noisy for a luxury car. For me it is the worst thing about the M3. I would purchase a Quiet Package should it become available on the Model Y I have on order.

Like many of you I own and "love" my 2018 Model 3 but I want more cargo space so I have a Y on order. However I have found my M3LR to be quite loud as compared to my 2016 BMW X3 SUV. I drive the same route from Bellingham, WA to the Skagit Regional airport several times a week and with my M3 I...

Yes I agree. A car parked in front of the one at Lone Pine would block traffic.

HAHAHA Yes great example and thanks for sharing. But for those who didn't know (me) it is quite shocking in a 60K luxury car.

My first long trip, most of my drives are 30 miles and return. Now that you mention this I think it did want me to do Mt Shasta. I figured it was just a mistake since it was well off the route. Checking google (not Tesla Chargers) that looks like about 60 miles out and back.

Wow that is really cool output on the data logger. I've never seen this before. Thanks for the tips for my return drive.
