    New Model Y owner - What should I know?

    For commuters, park and ride garages are beginning to add free charging as an incentive.

    New Jersey Waiting Room

    I did finance. And yes, the registration and plate (PA is rear only) came together. I thought I was going to have to register it myself so that was a nice surprise. You then have 10 days to get it inspected.

    Why CarPlay?

    I use CarPlay on my ICE car and I thought not having CarPlay was going to be a much bigger deal. Now I've had the Y for almost a month and I don't miss it. I also see how running CarPlay over Tesla's system would be like running two OS versions on one computer and could be a big nightmare. My...

    New Jersey Waiting Room

    Live in PA, picked up in NJ. That all was FedEXed to me in like a week and a half.

    One thing you LOVE and DISLIKE about your Model Y

    I'd MUCH rather use them than have to keep switching back and forth myself. It's the most labor-saving part of the car when you think about it.

    One thing you LOVE and DISLIKE about your Model Y

    I've only taken one long drive at night in my new LR, but I was actually impressed with the autodiimming headlights.

    One thing you LOVE and DISLIKE about your Model Y

    Here's one I've just discovered since subscribing to FSD. I have not been able to use the Summon automatic feature. Mostly it says not available wherever I have tried it.

    Blind Spot how to move position after latest update?

    Can you have separate positions for left and right? I'd like to stick the Left top left and Right top right.

    One thing you LOVE and DISLIKE about your Model Y

    Love: The acceleration is like having a superpower compared to most other cars on the road. Hate: The wiper spray coming from the wipers themselves doesn't distribute onto the windshield very well and does a bad job clearing debris.

    Regenerative Braking Software Update

    Not liking the softening of the regen in general on my first software update. I had just gotten used to how the more aggressive regen drove but now I find myself having to use the brake much more often to stop.Kind of a dangerous sudden switch, I believe. I guess the company decided it needed...

    Model Y Nit List

    I'm loving the new Y. I have just a few minor nits. Wiper spray: I don't like the coverage of the wiper fluid spray compared to spray nozzles that are mounted on the hood. Although I suspect I might feel differently once we get snow and I won't have to excavate the nozzles. Driver's seat...

    Second thoughts on Telsa charger installation

    So as an update: I'm a couple of weeks in and it looks like I'll be ok with the trickle charge at home and the free 220V free charger at my parking garage, where I'll be parked 10-12 hours a day during the week. I chose the electrician and let him know I'm accepting his quote to upgrade the...

    I moved out of the city to Bucks County, PA. Although I still commute about 4 days a week.

    The quote was for disconnecting the detached garage electric from the house, bringing in new 200 amp service, and wiring the charger.

    Expressway exits?

    Right. I subscribed.

    Expressway exits?

    Thank you. Then I guess I am having an issue with the FSD. IT will change lanes when I signal, but will not follow the navigation and take an exit.

    Expressway exits?

    I'm very new to the FSD thing. So I've had my LRMY for a week now and I've just subscribed to FSD for a road trip this weekend, and I thought I understood the differences between Autopilot, FSD, and FSD beta. Isn't my FSD supposed to take exits off of expressways during navigation? Or is it...

    Can’t find vehicle

    I had an issue with the app earlier. It gave a server maintenance message but it's all good now.

    Second thoughts on Telsa charger installation

    You're correct in essence. But that's the price to put 200 amp separate service in the garage. Upgrating the house 20 200 and the new run out to the garage would be considerably more money.

    Are we talking about the fake motor sound piped through the speaker in reverse for pedestrians?

    Ok, that's good to know. Option C. Thank you.

    Second thoughts on Telsa charger installation

    Yeah, the problem is my house is maxed out at 100 amp service. Plus we have no gas in the area, so everything is electric. The house is pretty homeostatic—I never blow fuses. But if I try to run even a modest upgrade to the garage, I think we will. But also, I like the fact that most of my...

    Second thoughts on Telsa charger installation

    So after taking delivery of the LRMY last week, I've had an electrician over to give me a price on installing a Tesla charger on my detached garage. Without getting too in the weeds about the installation, I need to upgrade the electric, yadda yadda, and I got a fair price of 2300. I've...

    Brand new Y on 2022.15.102

    I've got a LRMY that's less than a week old; It's fantastic. This is probably a dumb question, but once I start getting updates (about 30 days after purchase is what I understand), will I then jump right to the latest version, or will I need to go through the updates incrementally? Also, what...

    I agree. Luckily my delivery on Friday came with the original white panels.

    Y trunk mats and small compartment

    My Tasmanians will be here next week. They look good and have gotten great reviews. I was wondering if anyone who has all-weather one-piece mats in their trunks find it a pain to use the smaller storage compartment near the seats?

    Can you give me some more info? I'm not sure. I have a white interior and my door trim is also white.

    Yesterday's delivery: alllllllmost perfect...

    By the way, I noticed that Teslas come with different tire types. Mine was delivered with Continental ProContact rx, which seem to be all-seasons.

    Yesterday's delivery: alllllllmost perfect...

    I think that's true for that panel gap, but the console door is a moving part that's not moving correctly. I cancelled the service request in an attempt to just cancel the panel gap issue. I then re-requested the service and not only is it for a week earlier, but now they are coming to me instead.

    Yesterday's delivery: alllllllmost perfect...

    Pickup went really well. I've got one panel gap issue that may be within spec (Picture one the problem, picture 2, the opposite side for comparison). It's not bothering me so much, honestly. My other nit is that the center console's door return slows about halfway down, and almost seems like...

    January 2022 Order Delivery Dates

    So finally, after ordering a LRMY on 1/26: TODAY IS THE DAY. Looks like a Cali build, which is just fine by me. I've got my Spigen screen protector, my console organizers, my game controller, and my Tesmainan floor mats and some charging adapters will be here shortly (anyone want to chime in...

    I hear that it's hit or miss whether or not the Ys come with mudflats. This is a good idea!

    Paint Protection - Best Value?

    I've decided against wrapping the new Y, mostly because of sticker shock. What's my best value paint protection / wax / spray-on paint protection, helping to keep the car looking new type thing? Picking up the car tomorrow and I want to get ready.

    Being pushed by Tesla to take delivery this month?

    I can say that Tesla scheduled me for delivery five days after my VIN was assigned. Pickup in Princeton. So yeah, that's a little pushy. Not easy to get financing together in that amount of time. I ended up extending it to eight days after. That's Friday and if my check doesn't get here...
