For my first MY, I had free supercharging and charged exclusively 4k miles per month at a supercharger. It was about two miles from my house. I didn't mind and found it relaxing. I put the seat back and listened to music or used my phone. (This was through Budget Long Term Rental, they gave...

I paid way more for my '22 MYP than the current prices, so I am a prior buyer who paid much more. My 2017 Prius Prime has 318k miles, and a new Prime is basically the same price as a MY, even a MYP. I am debating getting another Tesla and driving it into the ground, but we don't have enough...

I did not see that from the main Model Y page, so I was wondering if the refresh was imminent.

It seems for a while you, you can only buy an inventory model. The Juniper is not supposed to come out for a while. They made more cars than they produced for this past quarter, but you can still order other models. Any ideas?

It depends on the car. I also have a long commute, it's 120 miles round trip and takes 1 hr 15 minutes in the morning and 2+ hrs on the way home. I used to practice law in NYC, so getting home at 5:00 most days is a major improvement. Anyway, the gas savings depend on the car. I currently...

After staying overnight in the MY, I would recommend extra pillows to fill in the spaces on the left and right sides of the mattress. Four extra were enough. We also bought an electric cooler that perfectly fit in the sub trunk. Make sure you test this out. It's tight for two people. My...

Funny you say that. I just test drove the 2024 Prius and absolutely hated it. I'm renting a 2022 Model 3 RWD for the week to see how it is in the winter. It's the third time I have had one of these. I love it. Tesla is ruining all other cars. I'm going to get a Model 3 as my daily, and a...

The Tesla is going to need multiple batteries and drive units to get to 500k miles. I only needed one Prius and a 3k battery.

I was reading this wondering if we have the same car. I love our '22 MYP and have experienced none of this. I had another '22 MYP before the current one- it was even better. So, over 30k driving '22 MYPs. Wow. Just sell the car.

My 22 MYP is at 202 at 70% after 13k miles. This is with 11% supercharging. That should be 288.57 miles at 100%.

I have the Michelin that came with the car and have between 7/32 and 8/32 after 13k miles. The car is not in chill mode, but I'm also not launching it. After 17k miles with my last MYP, there was also hardly any wear with the same tires. Your driving style will definitely impact the wear. I...

If it didn't come with the LFP, I would spend the 5k and get the additional range.

Instead of a new '23, I went with the lowest mileage '22 I could find that had the updated interior and USS. I had a '22 and loved it. I have rented a number of '23 Teslas with vision and missed the USS. I paid a premium for the low mileage '22, but I'm okay with that and use the USS all the...

Here's my study of n=2. I had a new 2022 MYP that I supercharged exclusively. I charged it to 100% twice a week and to over 90% on the other days. I put 4k miles a month until it had around 17k miles. I bought a 2022 MYP with 3k miles that I have religiously followed charging guidelines and...

We go back and forth weekly between our home and a vacation home, which is 400 miles alone. The other 600 is 120 miles per day for work. The 2007 Prius is my first true commuter car. I had a Jaguar before that and it got awful gas mileage, so I bought a Porsche to drive since it got better...

I just saw a 1 year update video of a driver who put 100k miles a year and needed to buy a new battery right when it went out of warranty. We don't have enough high mileage examples yet. My Prius Prime recently hit 300k miles. Our 2007 Prius has 510k miles. I drive 50k miles per year. There...

Where did you get it?

The Prius can hold up to 50k/yr. With the Tesla, that could result in a new battery or a drive unit in two years for another 10k to 20k. That's more of a risk than I'm willing to take right now. We need more data on high mileage M3 and MY to see how the drive units and batteries hold up. There...

Did you need to replace the battery? Same question about the drive unit cost. Have you had any other repairs?

My commute to work is 120 miles per day. We have a vacation home that is 200 miles away that we visit every week. We travel often and drive. Our 2007 Prius has over 500k miles and our 2017 has close to 300k. I have other cars also that we drive (WRX, Challenger, Vette, etc). Between my husband...

I wish we had more high mileage examples. I ended up buying a MYP and will continue to put the 50k/yr on a Prius. I'm going to drive the Tesla 15k/yr so I am not out of warranty in two years with the battery. There are not many examples of truly high mile model 3 or Y vehicles.

But..tires.

Last year, I had a 2022 MYP that I put 4k a month on. I took a 200 mile trip weekly to a vacation home. There were no issues. It cost $500/month Supercharging exclusively. I also took it on a 500 mile trip and no issues with that either. I have a different 2022 MYP, and have 26k combined...

We have the same issue. But, we have two homes where we charge the Tesla and both are set up differently. We have a Nema 14-50 with an extension cord at one house, and a Nema 14-50 with the Juicebox at our other home. The car has the same issue at either location. The car will charge, stop...

Thanks. I was excited about the prospect of an increased range LFP Model 3, but that makes sense based on the battery size. We rented a RWD Model 3, with the upgraded wheels, and it got more range than my MYP, since you could charge it to 100% and it was incredibly efficient. I will be buying...

Don't the new M3 AWD have LFP now (when they recently returned them and they had they estimated mileage). https://electrek.co/2023/05/02/tesla-reintroduces-model-3-long-range-in-us-with-lfp-cells/ "Tesla has once again started taking orders on the Model 3 Long Range in the US, after it was...

Does the M3 still have the LFP battery for the RWD and dual motor versions?!? I'm trying to figure out how the credit is now the full $7,500 if the batteries are the CATL batteries. Highland models are also likely coming soon with all of the price reductions.

It did. It was a process though. None of the tolls were for places I went. I wonder how many people get these bills and just pay them? They charge it automatically to the credit card on file. I check the charges. Not everyone does..

I bought from Carmax because I wanted USS. I found a 2022 with 3k produced right before Tesla got rid of the sensors. It was the same price as buying new from Tesla, but I was able to see the car, and then have the option to return it for 30 days. Hearing the stories people tell about bringing...

They gave me a Tesla with 25% charge on a RWD M3. I had two appointments I needed to go to that were both a distance and the Supercharging was a pain. I also wanted to charge it at my house and not spend the money at the charger, so that did not work out either. They charged me $139 for tolls...

If you want to take 2k for these if you don't sell them, let me know. Thanks.

I had a 2022 MYP with 16k miles that I exclusively supercharged. I charged it to 100% at least once a week and to 90% the other days. It had 287 miles. That's a 5.3% loss. I never saw 303 by the way, and I got it with 4 miles. The 2022 MYP that I got this February has 7.5k miles and I have...

Well, my first MYP had no weird issues. My current one is down to 280 miles of range in 6k miles (with me doing my best to limit supercharging, charging to at most 70% daily, etc) and has an issue I have not encountered in a car before. I'm wondering if this has happened to anyone else. When...

Nah, I like the current model. The car can be replaced.

We have had no issues propping up the sub trunk cover with the model we bought.

Any idea how much it would cost to repair the rim? I've seen people selling sets of wheels and tires for 2k to 2.5k. The tires alone are 1.7k from Tire Rack, so I was debating just buying another set from ebay or the forum.

I had a 2022 MYP for 16k miles that I only drove. The wheels were not curbed. I bought a 2022 MYP, I was able to add my husband to the insurance for this one, so he has driven it a few times. He curbed one of the wheels today. I'm not thrilled, but it is what it is. He also crashed my vette...

I put some napkins to prop up the sub trunk cover for air flow.

I'm a lawyer and I also teach math and physics:)

I test drove a MYLR and felt like something was missing. I didn't love it. I test drove the MYP, problem solved. I don't feel any of the harshness that people report and love the car. This is my second MYP. The first one was a shade better than this one, but both have been awesome all around...

I bought a MYP recently and will hope for the best. But, I'm going to keep it to 15k/yr instead of 50k/yr and drive our Prius for the other miles.

I don't use wifi on my phone

This has been happening to me also. Tesla went to my house for service, and they couldn't open the car. I was at work, and they called me and asked me to open the car. I couldn't. My app says "last seen three days ago." Last time, I tried signing out of the app, i took the app of my phone...

I slept in the car twice, neither time with the cooler under me. I don't think you would notice it though.

If Tesla has a vision update for park assist, will they disable the USS on your car if it has it?

Remember this? Woman uses private Tesla charger without permission

I have the Nema 14-50 near my front door and a 50 ft extension cord. The electrician wanted 1.1k to do it this way. If I wanted the Nema 14-50 as close as possible to the car so the extension cord would have been 25 ft, they wanted over 2k. It has worked fine. We have a Juicebox installed on...

Apparently, my vents are already covered? I bought them because of the tales of woe I have read about lost objects. If you need them, buy some mesh and some velcro and make them. The ones on Amazon I bought were incredibly poor quality. I'm going to return them. DO NOT buy these: Taruimoo...

My 9/22 MYP is at 80% now and is showing 237 miles. The car has 3k miles on it. It's 31 F outside now.
