    Model Y Performance on drag strip + 0-60 + Model 3 comparison

    Do the stock 19" Geminis fit the MYP even with the larger brakes? That was one of the issues I had with my M3P and I had to get third party 18" wheels for it.

    Radar getting turned off on Model 3/Y with 2022.20.9

    Tesla says that, but having used both systems (and being in FSD beta for both), would say the radar based system was far more reliable. Less phantom braking, and when following cars, the radar based system was much more responsive to cars slowing down and delivering a gradual deceleration. The...

    Why do people hate Black exterior so much?

    Not really hate, and admittedly a clean black car can look great. But you'll rarely have a clean black car, and if you're in the south or California, a black car will feel like an oven. That was the main reason that put me off; it's just impractical. Just touch the surface of a black vs white...

    High Pitched Whine Sound Coming From Rear Cabin 2022

    Going to agree with @YNoVA . I had two 2022 MYP's 4 months apart, and the noise difference is clear as day especially when you've an identical car before. Old one didn't have it, new one did. The manufacturing is just that inconsistent.

    Battery Use in Camp Mode

    On our most recent trip with the exterior being around 50-60F at night, we were pulling around 1%/hour setting the temp to 70F. In most cases I would estimate about 1%/hr using the AC as well. I personally didn't like using an air mattress in the back since it's quite thick and takes up a lot...

    I got rear ended. Is it totaled?

    I would say around that much too. I had a low speed fender bender that cost over 11k, and this is a little more extensive than that.

    Why I cancelled my order

    To be fair, out of the three I've had, my first one in 2019 had pretty much 0 problems, the second one had some minor issues, and the third one had the most (2 misaligned panels, axle needed lube, a couple other issues). The service center was very helpful, but my issues definitely weren't bad...

    Credit Unions with good rates that accept applicants anywhere within the US?

    That you'd have to check with the State. Ie: Texas taxes based on the price difference when you trade in, but California taxes on the full price of the vehicle.

    CA Waiting Room

    Not sure either, maybe a combination of someone cancelling + I live next to the factory + FSD + MYP + white interior? I do know they prioritize the higher end models, but the rest is probably just luck. That or someone didn't want this one cuz it does have some rattling issues that need to get...

    July 2022 Model Y Order/Delivery

    Right now Tesla's financing is really high. If you're in California, Tech CU and Star One have pretty good rates (3%). I would check other credit unions as well, they typically have better rates than traditional banks atm.

    Credit Unions with good rates that accept applicants anywhere within the US?

    https://www.nusenda.org/news-resources/rates-fees#AutoLoans This place has rates for 3% at 72 months. A lot of places raised theirs on the 1st and I missed out as well =(

    July 2022 Model Y Order/Delivery

    I think the rebates are supposed to go into effect next year though? And aren't retroactive? If so, that's a pretty long time to wait for it. In case I kind of need a car so it's not something I can wait on lol.

    July 2022 Model Y Order/Delivery

    Ordered a new MYP (white/white with FSD) on 07/16, delivery estimate originally for October-November. This morning got moved up to August 5-19, and then an hour later assigned a VIN and car is ready for pickup o.O Not sure if someone bailed on their order or something, but very big surprise.

    Houston, Texas - Model Y Deliveries

    Also income cap, which is pretty easily exceeded in California where income and expenses are higher (but ironically where most EVs are sold). So it's more helpful of a credit for everywhere else.

    Compatible game controllers for 2022 MYLR

    4 month old MYP Hit...how's it look guys?

    Yeah, there wasn't any life threatening injuries on all parties, but other than that I don't know. My neck will probably need some work, but I'm just glad the person who flipped didn't get anything too serious. Lost value is a bit difficult to go after, and sometimes the only way to obtain it...

    damn maybe there's hope for mine. they did a great job on that repair. any rattling or residual signs of damage?

    4 month old MYP Hit...how's it look guys?

    Ah I see. I'm in the states, and it appears initial estimate is 15k worth of repairs. Although the adjuster said that's just from exterior, they expect a larger amount once it's been inspected with a teardown of that part.

    4 month old MYP Hit...how's it look guys?

    They ended up having a slightly dented door and mild dent in front fender near the door. Paint was also scraped off a bit. I think relatively minor compared to me and the black car, since mine received the bulk of the impact. @rickybobbee was your situation your party or the other at fault...

    4 month old MYP Hit...how's it look guys?

    Yeah I don't know what that would have to do with going to court, but it was already obvious at the time of accident that there was no immediate life threatening injuries. Other than that I don't know, but will be getting checked up in the next few days. My insurance declared me not at fault...

    4 month old MYP Hit...how's it look guys?

    @mswlogo is correct. For some context, the right lane was an exit lane, so I don't think the white car was trying to pass; was probably just trying to exit. The area we were in had stopped traffic further ahead, so the right two lanes other than the exit lane had slowing traffic with the slowest...

    4 month old MYP Hit...how's it look guys?

    Yeah, was rear ended. Looked like the car was changing lanes, didn't see another car in blind spot, scraped them, then rear ended me and flipped to the shoulder. Had to be going pretty fast for that though and it definitely felt like quite an impact. Surprisingly no major injuries for all parties.

    Hey everyone, car (2022 Model Y Performance) got rear ended recently and this is how it looks. I know most people aren't insurance adjusters or anything, but would appreciate feedback from anyone who has experience with or has seen this level of damage. If anyone has idea of roughly how much...

    Trade In Offer

    There's also another advantage of trading in (in most states at least), and that is it'll reduce the actual sale price of your car so that your sales tax will be on the difference. This doesn't apply in some states (like California), but it does in 42 of them, including Texas. In more expensive...

    Recent MYP Delivery Estimates

    Ordered 10/11/2021, pushed back my original delivery 12/25/2021 (Intel), just got delivery of my MYP 02/21/2022 (AMD, and also lithium battery). Worth the wait. I haven't paid attention to the tires. What am I looking for, and what were the other options?

    Some 2022 Model Ys shipping with MCU3 (AMD Ryzen)

    It is significantly faster. Maps load at least twice as fast, and a lot of games/applications load at least 3 times faster (and considering they used to take at least half a minute, it's quite an improvement). There's still no conclusive evidence as to what gpu they're using in it (whether it's...

    Bay Area here too, just got my VIN today with F383xxx for MYP. Don't remember OD, but was around October last year. Confirmed Ryzen cpu, not sure about tires.

    Performance Waiting Room

    Yeah. The service afterwards was pretty decent so far, but I imagine it's a bit different to get major work done. I took my car in today to have the spoiler adjusted since it was a bit loose and not very firmly attached on one side. The guy just installed a brand new one, so no complaints.

    Model 3 steering - not loving it

    Coming from a Subaru WRX, sport mode on the M3P feels pretty much identical, which is good.

    Performance Waiting Room

    I did that. Actually had the opposite happen since I ordered prior to the promotion, but got 5k. I think maybe my OA added my promo late and ended up working in my favor.

    Referral bonus just increased to 5000 miles?!

    Yeah, I just got my supercharging status updated yesterday and it was at 5,000. I ordered before the promo as well (4/22). Not sure if it's luck because I did send Tesla support an email about it, and prior to that when I used the supercharger soon after delivery I was charged for it. It's...

    2019.12.1.2 on HW3

    For those of you who have HW3 and the latest update, have you noticed any difference in the battery drain of Sentry mode using the newer hardware? From my understanding, Sentry mode required the autopilot hardware to be on, which in the older chips drained about 1%/hr since that cpu pulled...

    Delivered today! Seems like it's in great shape. Didn't find any paint problems, loose panels, or etc. Also comes with the badge and spoiler. Seems like the new ones will come pre-installed with them.

    Grats! From going through the excel, it seems like they make the multicoat ones in batches and yours is likely made in the same set as mine.

    It's kinda like their version of the salesman. I got assigned one after test driving at the local tesla dealership prior to even ordering the car. Whenever I call about my car, it gets routed to my OA. Same with emails.

    Performance Waiting Room

    I was switching from a WRX that I had for two years. Though my experience with it was much better. It was a great car, but Cali gas is ridiculously expensive and I didn't want to have to deal with maintenance issues later.

    Performance Waiting Room

    lol did you also switch from a subaru? Oh also, actually maybe not the VIN. I forgot it only gives the model year, not month/date. So you wouldn't know if it's HW3 unless you know what serial number they started making the hw3 cars I suppose?

    Performance Waiting Room

    Ah. I do live like right across the bay from the Fremont factory, so that might make it easier for them to get the delivery to me. From the excel, it looks like they do the performance models in batches so you can try calling them tomorrow and see if they've assigned you one. I got the FSD...
