I don't think the BMW crowd (besides i3 types) are in the market for a $25k hatchback. This car is for the Civic buyer.

Agreed, there is a delay, but then it works.

2024.26 just installed. Seems to have fixed the problem.

We have been talking about the Model 2 since at least 2021. These cheaper (smaller?) variants of the M3 and MY are basically that. Probably a European hatchback and a B-segment CUV. No, they are not the more recently announced unboxed production cars.

These are the M2; the smaller, cheaper Tesla. They are just not using the new manufacturing process. If I recall, rumors of the M2 have been around a lot longer than the unboxed process.

M2 is on track for start of production first half of 2025. "Plans for new vehicles, including more affordable models, remain on track for start of production in the first half of 2025. These vehicles will utilize aspects of the next generation platform as well as aspects of our current...

Ok? But it used to, and it uses some other system to notice objects. Either way that is not the same thing as RCT.

It uses the small back up sensors on the bumper to detect close obstacles when reversing. That is different from Rear Cross Traffic which uses radar to detect objects approaching from a distance. My Subaru has RCT.

Correction. She’s broken again this afternoon.

I just got a big update, 2024.14.6, with new visualizations, UI, etc., and so far the dash cam is working!

Pressing the icon gives an error. So, there's no safe way to eject the drive.

So, are we thinking hatchback car or B-Segment CUV? Lifted hatch like an Ioniq 5?

That would be an older update, from January.

2024.8.9 is still buggy with the DashCam.

My dashcam worked today. Didn’t the other day. It’s random. Sometimes broken AM, works PM.

That would make too much sense. They just said that there were faults for too much power draw and it came from the front USB port.

They didn't fix anything. They said the SSD was drawing too much power (I've used it for almost 4 years). It started working, and now it is back to being broken every now and then. They said only the Tesla USB stick is suggested lol.

Nope. This afternoon it’s broken again.

This morning the red X went away. It might be working. I don't know why, nothing was updated. I have an appointment next Friday to get it looked at.

Yea, it worked for me now the past two days. Very odd.

I recently updated to 2024.8.4 on my 2020 Model Y with front USB port. I have used the same Samsung SSD T5 for years. I noticed that the TeslaCam icon showed a red X so I unplugged and deleted the files via my laptop. Now, when I plug the USB back in nothing happens. The red X remains and under...

I am having this same issue. Any fix yet? Just log back in?

Bottom only. It’s been on for 8 months. I think I’m screwed.

Did this get fixed? I just removed my Diono mat to see I’ve got black dots all over the white seat.

This marketplace listing has expired and has been removed.

This thread is for the general discussion of the marketplace listing Long Island, NY - FS - Two (2) Pirelli P Zero Winter 255/45-19. Please add to the discussion here.

Just saw that this was updated to fix the problem. I haven't had a chance to test it, but has anyone had their headlights turn on (during the day) when the wipers are in use?

That would be unfortunate if true.

How are you determining that? In the past, Tesla DID pass on the credit. They did so by inflating the residual value of the car. This means you have less depreciation, and therefore your lease payments are less. I assume this has continued in 2023. Other companies, example Subaru, itemize the...

For us, the bad roads are terrible, especially compared to my Alfa Romeo which is compliant on bad roads (yet still unbelievably agile). For you, I would suggest ditching the 20s, going to 19s (or 18s if they exist yet for the load) and then taller side-walled tires. More cushion = better ride.

Sorry, I had to reread your post and my edit wasn't quick enough. Was it any better over really bad uneven roads? I don't mind the car on good roads.

That sucks. Even over really bad roads that are uneven or potholed?

@sagax So you are you saying your stock suspension feels the same after the "comfort" upgraded parts?

Smaller rims with thicker tires are more comfortable. 19s are your best option. 18s would be magical.

Model Y 5 seater is an SUV... IRS made a mistake: https://www.irs.gov/credits-deductions/manufacturers-and-models-for-new-qualified-clean-vehicles-purchased-in-2023-or-after https://electrek.co/2023/02/03/tesla-model-y-gains-full-access-7500-ev-tax-credit-80000-price-limit/

The amount of reduction for the Model Y in the US is due to the IRS not categorizing it as an SUV, and allowing a max $80k MSRP. That is why the MY specifically starts at $52,990, so that even with some options it qualifies (<$55k). If the MY was an SUV per the rule, then they would not have had...

What % of approved Tesla buyers do you think don't have a $7,500+ tax liability?

It is based on the tax-year of purchase. Purchased before, by 12/31/2022 (2022 Tax Year, aka April 15 2023 filing) Purchase now (2023 Tax Year, aka April 15 2024 filing)

It is entirely true. Tesla inflates residual on EV leases (when the credit existed for Tesla) I leased a Subaru Crosstrek PHEV. That got a $4,502 EV credit. Subaru Financial got the credit, they gave me $4,502 off as downpayment. That reduced my lease price. That's how EV leases work. Some...

Ok, this is common misconception about the EV Credit. The term has nothing to do with owing money in April, or your refund check from overpaying in taxes. The credit can be received in full, or partially: If the EV credit max is $7,500: Non-Refundable Credit means if your Federal Total Tax...

Most people lease luxury cars. Either way, $7,500 in Federal Total Tax liability is tiny. Just about everyone pays more than that in Federal taxes. So, if you want to buy the car, you will get $7,500 either as a check, or to reduce your tax liability due in April. AGI is another topic.

What? Just about anyone who can afford a Tesla will qualify for the $7,500 credit from tax liability standpoint. If your AGI is above the limit, just lease and you'll get the credit applied to the lease numbers to lower your payment. Please look up non-refundable credit. It's not what you think.

I'm one. At the time I believed it all. The December cuts were based on a looming Federal Credit, that was true. Inventory at the end of the quarter did sell. Cars for sale now may not have been available in 2022 (December or January builds). The IRS made them more expensive by calling the...

Not having it on all the time is your own preference, and that is of course fine. If you want to manually control it, you have to go into the system. The idea is to automate things as much as possible. The fog lights are not blinding anyone. They point down and out. How much energy do you...

The 12v battery is topped off by the pack. It's not draining your pack bc the fog lights are on. Let's be realistic.

Yup. That sucks, well it's good, but it sucks for my argument. Also, my used MY is now a major mistake.

Welp, there goes my theory. Nice debating guys.

@hmmwv Inventory right now is from Tesla cranking out cars in late December. Who knows if they were even eligible for sale before 12/31 considering shipping constraints. They had 40%+ growth last year. That doesn’t sound like slowing demand. The economy and sentiment can change, so we will see.

Yes. But it’s a different world. Let’s see how bad 1Q23 is.

China is not the US. You can’t compare entirely different people with different economies and tax incentive structures. Most people like to save money. Even if you wanted the car at $67k you will probably wait a month to save $7,500. That doesn’t mean the car itself is any less desirable to...
