    Cybertruck Will Feel Dated By the Time it Comes Out?

    You can drive with the rear view mirror obstructed. Vans do it all the time, same with boxed trucks. Only mirror you need is the driver side mirror. My biggest worry with all this bulletproof stuff are kids throwing rocks at stranger's trucks to "test it out".

    Model Y Snow Chains

    Wow I just tried to put mine on last night on my Geminis and I failed. It wasn't even close. I guess I'll try again.

    Tire chain alternatives to tesla

    I like how the clips are seated on the sidewall instead of the wheel itself. I'm looking at the Security Chain sizing guide and it looks like they suggest the SZ143 for 255/45/19. How did you decide on the SZ429, and have you gotten any use of it so far?

    Samsung Z Flip 3

    My gf got the ZFlip3. She got this case from amazon that lets her store her ID inside of it (only 1 card). It adds a bit of length to the ends of the device, and she's now able to charge her phone in my car (updated console). It can only charge folded because it is now too long to be unfolded...

    Samsung Z Flip 3

    Does anyone have a Z Flip 3 and can confirm it wirelessly charges with the updated center console? The wireless charging receiver is situated lower than other phones. Thanks!

    Red shirt + white seats = pink seats

    Unfortunately, 2 short weeks into my ownership, my passenger seat is light pink from a oversized red shirt my gf was wearing. I tried using ONR, ColourLock, APC, and isopropyl, but no luck. I even tried magic eraser on the darkest spots, but that didn't seem to do much. Any other...

    Model Y: Tesla Vision - no radar drive at night

    The ability to turn off high beams is part of a software update. Like Keith said, you have to disable it every time you engage AP.

    Smart Summon Drove My Model Y Into A Tree - July 2021

    Ultrasonics have difficulty detecting narrow objects, the tree is pretty skinny. That's why a lot of these crashes are poles, trees, pillars, cones. I think 360 cameras would help with these low speed maneuvers. Looking at Tesla's vectorize birds eye view, I could see it having difficulty...

    Model Y motion sickness

    model S is smoother but still slightly firm. It's in line with the Germans. I think the 3/Y issues are with the shocks. You could try a coilover kit. UPP has a satisfaction guarantee for their luxury coilovers. Driving in chill mode will help you control regen better as well.

    Y vs 3 handling and ride comfort

    ES350 definitely softer. Model S seems more in line with the Germans. Slightly firm but smooth and poised

    Model Y Price increased $1,000 tonight

    I bit at $48,990. I'm a very indecisive person, but I figured $100 was worth the piece of mind if the price ever changes. Pretty proud of that decision.

    Blended Braking System

    Thanks for the clarification. People tend to go quick into personal attacks on this forum. I've had really good experience with blended regen, just wondering if its in the works or still into consideration. I don't think the implementation will be bad. We experience automated braking in...

    How comfortable is comfort steering?

    comfort is definitely lighter, but its not light like an Audi or Lexus. I'd say it's medium. Car also has a very quick steering rack so you'd need to put more input than usually at higher speeds. I personally drive in standard because I find discomfort in both comfort and sport. Now I just...

    Blended Braking System

    Read the rest of the thread. I'm not just talking about blended brakes, but also blended regen. That way you have consistent one-pedal driving regardless of SoC or weather conditions. If you really like OPD, wouldn't you want to be able to do it all the time?

    They said they just changed the way they measure cargo volume. Now they're doing a water fill procedure to squeeze out all they can.

    July 21, October. Blue on white LR. SoCal. Very curious what the extra 8 cuft is
  36. Y

    Model Y Price increased $1,000 tonight

    Wonder where the 8 cu ft came from. I hope it's not from the frunk (heat pump). 8 cu ft is a lot though, so unlikely. Maybe new slimmer seats? Kind of doubt it.

    Model Y steering ratio?

    Yeah it's like 10.3:1. I'm wondering if better suspension will help with my hand fatigue.

    I think Volvo/polestar did. Regardless I think some consistency would be nice.

    Steering too sensitive - 2021 Model 3P

    I wonder if softer suspension will make it more comfortable in the highway by reducing bump steer

    Blended Braking System

    Maybe I'm not being clear. I'm not complaining about the concept of OPD. I'm saying blended braking could improve it by giving consistent deceleration regardless of weather conditions or SoC, whether it is from regen or friction brakes. If I'm at 100% and it's freezing cold outside, I still...

    Blended Braking System

    I actually charge to 80%, but I often drive at pretty low percentage, so when I do charge up it always startles me. This applies to cold weather as well.

    Media player crashing

    Anyone's media player keep crashing? It doesn't matter if I'm listening to bluetooth audio or radio, the media player would crash.

    Blended Braking System

    What's OBE? I still have to use the brake pedal when I'm at high SoC. There isn't enough regen. I think there are benefits in blended braking systems for both one and two pedal driving for reasons I listed above.

    Blended Braking System

    More Regen~ In EVs I've driven with a blended brake system + one pedal driving, you could brush the brakes to have more regen. Theoretically you could put your systems full regen potential in one pedal driving, but it will be not as smooth and very alarming if you take your foot off the pedal...

    Blended Braking System

    Why doesn't Tesla have a blended braking system? A blended braking system could feed in more regen and have a more consistent one pedal driving experience.

    Any Model Y with new projector headlights in the USA?

    I didn't ask anyone anything? I was just adding input and a source where you can spot a difference because someone said there's no difference.

    Model Y Steering Ratio is 10.3, like a sports car.

    Well I'm coming from a cayman. I just borrowed a Lexus for a weekend road trip. I like the model S and miatas have nice static ratios. 14:1 or 15:1 is nice.
