I agree, my neighbor has a KIA electric which I drove. Ride is far better than my MY, but hat doesn't take much. The ride in the 2021 MY is about the same as my old 2008 jeep wrangler which was pretty bad. The KIA has too many buttons, although I would like a few more in the Y. I prefer a door...

Since only use about 65% of the max range is used when on the road I would like to see about 400+ miles max range and more charger locations. 400 miles max at hwy speed would probably reduce to about actual 320 miles and 65% is about 208 miles between stops. Although that would likely mean...

My problem with EV's has to do with number 5 on road trips. It's more a personal thing, but I find traveling in my 2021 MYLR is a bit of a PITA. I equate it to traveling when the speed limit was 55 MPH, while you might arrive more relaxed most people I knew hated the extra time it took to get...

I enjoyed my Jeep Wrangler SAHARA 4 DOOR. Terrible ride, only slightly worst than my 2021 MY, but it could handle any chuck hole as long as your back and teeth could handle it. Also got poor mileage. I drove it for 13 years w/o trouble until I finally traded it for the MY. If I had to do it...

I generally don't take my MY on road trips just because of the charging. While Tesla supercharger infrastructure is the best around it is still insufficient when coupled with lack of range in my opinion . I believe it will be 10-15 years before gets really solid. In the mean time it's a really...

I've been having some problems like that with my iPhone 13 pro. Perhaps starting last spring, sometimes need to get the phone out of my pocket and bring the app up. It was open in background just not up front. Hard to know if it was a Tesla software change or something with the phone. Now it...

Yes, I have problems from time to time. Phone no longer works well in the back pocket nor all the time in rain coat pocket. Most annoying when it's raining out. Could be a phone issue as I changed phones about a year and a half ago. I now have an iPhone 13 Pro. I don't think I ever had a...

I'll be glad if they can improve the auto wipers I don't mind them not coming on a fast as they should as I can push the button and they seem to wake up. What I can't tolerate is coming on when there is no rain or moisture; It happens way too frequently. I can understand some of the issues like...

I think they will get behind the curve. It's time consuming and expensive to build SC locations, plus the time needed to negotiate an agreement with the property owners needed to install them. With that said It may be a year or two before Tesla owners notice much difference, which depends how...

After two years of ownership I still don't feel comfortable taking my MY on long trips. When I check route planners I come away thinking that's way too much trouble. I don't want to go below 20% ( 1/4 tank in my gas car) and since you don't charge over 80% on the road unless you want to be there...

Not sure if this will be the same. I have a iPhone 13 Pro and use an Otterbox Commuter and it charges fine. Not sure how much the camera on yours sticks out compared to mine.

My free year ended July 2022 so I've been w/o since. While it's not a lot of money it does't seem to offer much. I don't play games, generally didn't use live view as felt map was too busy, and I preferred streaming XM from my phone. Also I drive almost exclusively around town as I personally...

Regarding the original post, I agree with the post. For me EV's are really not great for some road trips. Generally I'm trying to get to a destination and not a big fane of the extra time trips take with charging stops. I know for some it's no problem and that's fine; everyone is different. I...

I had it free for a year, but did not buy it once that free service was over. I found in that year I did not use satellite view while driving as I found it to be too busy and I did not use the music options provided. I stream XM from my phone, since I pay for xm in another vehicle the phone...

Tesla is way behind regarding safety warnings, although front warning seems to work very well. It indicates how many inches away from an object the car is.
