Off road mode. Chill doesn't help if you are driving slowly already. But can't hurt to engage it

If you want the easiest route, buy the stock wheels with winter tires from the long range awd. Keep the other wheels for summer, or sell em. But if you sell you'll have to buy summer or all season tires to swap to every year

honestly I don't think chill matters for snow driving or traction. Snow mode does. Even in sport we all know you can creep as slowly as you want based on pedal modulation, which is by definition minimal power/torque. All chill does is reduce max power

Maybe your reading comprehension isn't that great. It doesn't matter because its clear you'll just twist things to make tesla infallible.. My original comment was actually about slowing down, and the subsequent fishtailing.. which never happened in any of my other awd cars with all seasons. And...

Another one. And accelerator position is determined by the fact that some idiot in front of you is texting, or stopping for whatever reason. WHEN you HAVE to slow down, you let off the pedal as little as possible.. as you know that's how its done in a tesla. In snowy conditions in the model y...

Watch out, nut hugger comments incoming looking to put the blame anywhere but Tesla .. YoU mUsT bE dRiVinG iT wRoNg

tire rack does have them.. no need to buy tires from them Lol, do you understand the concept of slowing down? If someone in front of me slows down I must slow down the amount necessary so I don't hit the car in front of me. In a Tesla that means letting off enough so that the car slows down...

TLDR its not the torque or the tires. Its the regen braking and possibly also the TCS. I'm aware of how the car drives. And no it didn't have that much more power than the BMW I had which was modified. That car had conticontact AS. My model Y has stock all seasons. Regardless, again, if you are...

It was light snow coming down and moderately snowy roads. Not icy. I should have been able to go 50 mph without a problem like other cars passing me. Just didn't feel good enough to get to that speed.

Lengthy thread on this topic I just read through. We need a software update Winter handling Subaru vs dual-motor model Y

Yup, same. I felt a lot better with off road mode, but it still didn't fee that great and I couldn't keep up with other AWD vehicles. Pretty disappointing honestly. This car should be better in these conditions than my previous awd cars I'm not sure about off road but I meant a 'snow mode'...

This is flat out false. I'm coming from an A4 and a 335xi. Neither fishtailed anywhere near how the Y behaved on my first snow trip last weekend. It was downright sketchy until I turned on off road mode (I have a '21 model Y LR, there is no option to adjust regen). The torque isn't a factor when...

Yes the tires are a no brainer but I'm kinda baffled at how no one is mentioning the regen braking. I drove to keystone, CO last weekend while it was snowing and first half of the ride was AWFUL until I turned on off road mode. I'm talking driving 30-40mph and audi's and subarus absolutely...

It doesn't. I have a 21 and no holes

Well I guess same question, will it damage the ppf when removed? Assuming no but not sure who has tried to remove $200+ seems a little nuts for emblems, will probably spray the originals

So I just got the same xpel stealth ppf and xpel fusion ceramic on model Y... Did your installer cut around the sensors? I just got it back today and they aren't working properly, it doesn't tell you the distance from objects. I assume I have to have them cut around them. Also, how did you...

I doubt they release an upgrade for the P.. did they say it was coming?

Just got the same wrap on model Y... Did your installer cut around the sensors? I just got it back today and they aren't working properly, it doesn't tell you the distance from objects. Also, what type of logos did you get and how did you apply them? They removed mine and said they wouldn't put...

Exactly, I had the performance model booked and ended up going with the long range instead. The decider was the induction all season wheels vs the uberturbine summers. The other factor is the long range w/ upgrade will snap your head back nearly as well when already driving. Just not as quick...

I'm confused.. still showing 10k in my app. If it dropped in price shouldn't it be 9k?

Yeah, going to have to disagree with you there. It's an option they didn't have to offer at all, and is cheaper, easier and no negative affects to the car vs doing upgrades to an ice car. The upgrade is noticeable at all speeds and well worth it.. to say its nowhere close to the performance is...

For those that are using chains.. are you running all season tires? I'm in Colorado and lost traction last week on a snowy back road.. could have easily done major damage to my Y. At that moment I decided I'm getting snow tires or chains. But the tires are $1450. I plan to hit the slopes at...

Nice, thanks. I didn't think the tires would fit on 10". You have the goodyear eagles I assume? I'm looking at getting the UPP coil overs

cliff thats a nice setup and close to what I'm going for. Did you powdercoat the calipers and what did you pay? I am doing the same yellow, been quoted $560. How is the ride comfort / performance with the spring upgrade? I saw a review of the coilovers from UP and both were improved.

Hi, Looking at some aftermarket wheels and would like to max out the width. Is anyone running a setup that sticks out an inch more with the same tires and not rubbing? I have the LR AWD 20" induction. Leaning towards keeping the tires and getting new rims with wider offset OR going with all...

Easy to forget the car is already better than the competitors. If anything this is a good value compared to buying a performance model ... So what is the verdict on the 2k upgrade? How noticeable is it? I mean, I'm gonna do it. But only had the car 2 days and loving it. Only test drove the...

I have the performance Y coming in a few weeks. Living in Colorado I am thinking of going with 20" wheels and selling the uberturbines. I have heard that there are some fit issues due to the hub with some rims. Does anyone know what other options there are besides tssportline? I am not a big...

I like those wheels and considering similar ones. Not a huge fan of the uberturbines. Do you know if you can get away with a different offset that makes the wheels stick out more? The stance would just look so much better and may also help handling a bit with a wider stance

Regarding sidewalls, I don't think the figures are accurate. I just watched a vid ( ) swapping 21" to 20" ts sportline. 8 minutes in they measured 2.75" of sidewall on the 20's.. which added about .75" over the 21's. Looking at ts sportlines site, the 20s don't seem to fill out the wheel well...

Yes I get that part. But I don't understand the conditions as to when conversion is possible and why when I converted on 4/17 it was not ok. I understood it as, as long as its above $309, I can convert and I get 226 shares. But if I get cash or a mix, at what share price is the cash? And will I...

Thanks. honestly pretty lost on the conditions and also what share price they would convert to cash at. I have 70 bonds. Really just want shares, which I believe is 226.

my fault, i just checked and indeed I purchased in May. I am not sure what you mean by the criteria for early conversion had only just been met. I thought anyone could convert after the stock hit 309. First stock or bond I have ever bought, so thus all the questions. Also after speaking with...

Hi I purchased these bonds in early 2019, bond 88160RAG6 expiring 2024. I have initiated conversion of the bond. I was told by Etrade that it would take 3 business days. It's now been 2 weeks and I still haven't received anything. Etrade just called me and said they have learned that it could...
