    AMD Ryzen & 12v Batteries now shipping in US Y & 3!!

    In your shoes I would eat the 1250 loss - maybe they can delay your order one more time.

    Model Y - Gigafactory Texas Production

    They may be able to push out more power from the 4680s as well as there is a shorter path for the power to travel with the tabless design.

    AMD Ryzen & 12v Batteries now shipping in US Y & 3!!

    The difference is enough for me to order a 2022 car when I have a nice 2021 in my driveway Tired of the lag with the V11 reverse camera

    CA Waiting Room

    You got dual pane rear windows? Did you get wood paneling in the doors or projector headlights?

    Model Y - Gigafactory Texas Production

    Possibly but Fremont was Tesla's first factory, Austin will be their 3rd/4th factory.

    Potential cooled seats in Model Y

    It truly is. However, I would welcome this change. There have been a few times when I thought the seat heater was erroneously on when it wasn't because of how well the seats retain heat.

    Some 2022 Model Ys shipping with MCU3 (AMD Ryzen)

    Unfortunately the current matrix headlights do not follow the curves of the road. I think they're fine though. The dark spots I see are by design. They were rated as good headlights versus acceptable for the non matrix LEDs by the IIHS.

    CA carpool sticker -- Best to order in November for 2021?

    Not happy about the color but still excited about being able to use the carpool lane in a few weeks/months Too bad Tesla took 3 months to send me my plates - my application was rejected twice for incomplete registration

    Just to let you know , AMD Ryzen is so fast, everything feels like im using my home PC

    I'm using coconut battery to display the discharge wattage in the status bar. I find it really useful to look at in case some browser tab or program is eating up battery. PM me if you need help setting up the status bar You can also use a USB-C cable that has a built in discharge display: USB-C...

    Just to let you know , AMD Ryzen is so fast, everything feels like im using my home PC

    Here's a shot of my wife's M1 Air using 1/10th the amount of power doing the exact task as my Intel MBP. 36.7 watts vs 3.3 watts - The Intel MBP is long gone now

    Anyone else with delayed license plates?

    Almost 3 months for mine to finally arrive. Definitely Tesla's fault because my other car took less than 4 weeks and I bought it around the same time. DMV told me Tesla didn't finish the registration when Tesla said the DMV is backlogged (BS).

    Any Model Y with new projector headlights in the USA?

    https://www.iihs.org/ratings/vehicle/tesla/model-y-4-door-suv/2021#headlights IIHS headlight ratings with objective testing MYP: Good rating MYLR: Acceptable rating From the holiday update, we definitely know now that the projectors have matrix capabilities Courtesy Mike Seuss's youtube:

    MYLR vs Mach-e vs RAV4 Prime

    The Prius Prime actually goes to 83ish in EV mode too without kicking on the gas engine.

    Does Model Y Roof have UV protection?

    Interior itself is similar to other vehicles however you will feel some heat coming off the glass roof.

    Tesla Model Y Glass Roof Sunshade

    I agree this does look very similar to the ones with sag problems on Amazon but I've only had good experiences with OEM accessories so far.

    Tesla Model Y Glass Roof Sunshade

    Curious what you think of the new sunshade

    How does Tesla sense and alert vehicles in their blind spots?

    All I want is a slight audible warning if I turn on the signal and there's a car along my side or another speeding car that's about to pass me.. def first world problems but that should be an easy software add

    Home Charger only charging at 18amps

    If it's a Chargepoint Home Flex Charger, it needs to be configured via Bluetooth and Wifi to charge above 16amps of current

    Delayed License Plates

    End of September delivery, nothing. Can't blame the DMV, I bought a car a different car in August and the plates came in under 4 weeks. I called Tesla and they just told me to call the DMV or wait 3 months and they'll look into it.

    MY Front Window Tint Only

    He did the roof too. I think they'll do photosync on all windows without the roof for $1200 or so
  25. D

    MY Front Window Tint Only

    Sounds like a $2k tint job
  26. D

    MY Front Window Tint Only

    If you're tinting for heat rejection at all, most of the heat comes through the front windshield and Photosync is the best heat rejecting tint. It makes a substantial difference even in the clear color (70% VLT). Otherwise, if you just want to match the rear windows, your current selection is fine.
  27. D

    MY Front Window Tint Only

    Price is reasonable, place has good reviews. Would recommend doing the front windshield as well. If you have the $ to spare, do photosync IRD

    2021.40

    I think 2021.40.x are for the refreshed S and X No Ys have it yet

    Tesla Model Y Glass Roof Sunshade

    I agree. The glass doesn't let through much heat at all but it absorbs a ton and is really hot after parking in the sun. A few minutes of driving with the air to cool it off and it's comfortable again. I don't think a tint will help but have no personal experience. There are plenty of owners...

    Tesla at Costco

    When I'm in LA County I stay about 3 min away from a Costco. Filling the 24 gallon tank in my weekend car (I end up putting around 20 gallons or so and its 0.75c a gallon less at Costco. It's a free $15. I do enjoy my time off as well but using that hourly calculation is a fallacy as I'd...

    Thinking of trading my X for a Y, but V.O. concerns me!

    I've read about phantom braking but my VO Y has never had a single episode of it over the past 3 weeks of ownership in Southern California. The .36 update seems to have made the car brake smoother as well, either that or I'm developing more confidence in the cars ability to handle traffic. Note...

    Model Y Performance 21"- Pirelli or Michelin?

    How did you even wear them that bald? Any spot of rain would be spin city

    2021.11.x Firmware

    I think this is true.. 9/28 MYP no FSD delivery on 104, updated to .36 about 2 weeks later with about 600 miles. It'll be funny if 36.5 pops up in the next couple days

    Video of Delivery at Buena Park??

    I don't know if it was because of EOQ but they told me I could come in really late even though they were only open until 7PM. I showed up 8PM and it was fine. Good luck on your upcoming delivery, it'll be worth it.

    Video of Delivery at Buena Park??

    I had a very similar experience but did not have the choice of where to pick up the vehicle. I had to call 8 times over the course of an hour to get someone on the phone. That person messed up the MVPA (ended up with credit) and my bank needed it changed and when I tried to call back I couldn't...

    Video of Delivery at Buena Park??

    No video but if you have any specific questions I'd be glad to answer them. My delivery was a little over 2 weeks ago there.

    Tesla Build Quality Video du jour

    This car is a "luxury" item, meaning it's not a necessity. Your CRV can serve the same purpose and so can a Toyota Prius/RAV4 Prime at a lower price point. The sooner you get it the more time you will have to enjoy it. For a point of reference, my wife after one drive in the Model Y, wants to...

    Tesla Build Quality Video du jour

    I've recently come to the conclusion that this car isn't a collectible art piece but rather a replaceable electronic device more akin to an iPhone you get rid of once it's obsolete. A lot of cars have build quality issues and as long as mine isn't rattling/squeaking/falling apart while...

    Does Model Y Roof have UV protection?

    Much thanks, objective data is fantastic.

    Does Model Y Roof have UV protection?

    Can you do the side windows (front and back since the front has an acoustic layer) and windshield as well? It'd be awesome to see what the sun is currently measuring without the roof too.
