    New Model Y vs Model 3

    Just came from a Model 3 LR (2020), MYLR is an upgrade. I loved my M3LR until the last few days ago since I took delivery of my 2023 MYLR. Im by far much more comfortable and happier with my MYLR. Ride quality is excellent, the M3LR handling was "sportier" in my opinion, while the MYLR is much...

    Would you buy a black car again?

    I had several black cars (not Tesla), was debating between the Blue and Black MYLR...went with Blue since I never had a blue car. I always keep my car washed and clean so black has never been an issue. I would consider full front PPF to avoid chips and dings on the front areas which are much...

    How to delay delivery

    Im in a lease...they reach out to you around 4 months prior to lease end, and if you want to jump back into a Tesla you can place a pre-order and they'll put on hold until lease return day, along with some other additional incentives.

    Ear pain/Pressure help

    I dont think is exclusively the hatch, I think the hatch contributes to "bomminess/buffeting" and more likely the main cause, but is also likely lower train components contribute to the overall noise. Perhaps the blankets absorb some of the sound coming from beneath. In my personal test drive I...

    Buffeting/Booming issue survey

    Some owners that have noticed the booming have reported that it has gotten better after a few thousand miles. Im hopefully this is a "break in" issue. My personal experience, I did 2 test drives (30 mins and 1 hour) I noticed immediately on the first drive. Second test drive I requested the...

    Not sure if anyone is interested. But I have changed my configuration (MYLR to MYP then back to MYLR, white seats to black seats back to white seats) many times yesterday and today and is not affecting EDD at all. It stayed the same the whole time April 6-May 8.

    Should I take delivery of MYLR DBM from Fremont later this month? [Posted March 2023]

    HW4 will not make HW3 obsolete in any way, is just an upgraded version. In tech you cant think "Im gonna wait for the next iteration", otherwise you'll be waiting forever. Then there's project Juniper (refreshed 2024 Model Y). Thats another year or more of waiting. Lets say you wait. Do you...

    Is this dModel Y Panel Gap Normal?

    Question: When Tesla says "within Spec" where do they get the specs from? I have their service manual and do not see any specific gap specs. Thanks

    Confused. Down payment due to Tesla after 3rd party financed amount sent jumped by $2,000?

    Lol the website math makes no sense ...luckily you have that invoice that show the correct math. Give the website time to catch up is likely not everything has caught up in the background. Check again tomorrow see if it changed.

    MYLR / MSM exterior / BLACK interior - Waiting Room

    New Model Y owner

    I scuba and go swimming often during summer, I usually keep my card key in my pocket phone and wallet in my car. No degradation experienced so far (knock on wood). I think in a worst case scenario, I would just use my friends phone to call my wife so she can unlock it remotely.
