    Thick layer of dust from forest service road on inside side door and hatchback window jams. Solution?

    Thank you. The hatchback is where most of the dirt came in. Guess maybe to be expected given how the hatchback window sits more horizontally than vertically

    Worth buying 18 inch flow forged wheels versus sticking with 19 inch Gemini wheels when getting new Vredstein tires?

    Thank you. When I saw the post with this size Vredestein it looked like a good option because it provides more sidewall. But wasn’t sure of fitment since it shows rim range only up to 9 inches and I thought Gemini was 9.5 rim width.

    Worth buying 18 inch flow forged wheels versus sticking with 19 inch Gemini wheels when getting new Vredstein tires?

    Thank you. Do you know if the 18 inch t sportline would provide better protection with potholes on forest service roads or are Gemini strong enough?

    Worth buying 18 inch flow forged wheels versus sticking with 19 inch Gemini wheels when getting new Vredstein tires?

    I am getting new Vredstein AS tires. Trying to decide if there are sufficient benefits to spending $1700 + for flow forged TSportline wheels for 255/55/18 Vredstein tires or just sticking with current Gemini oem wheels and getting 255/45/19 Vredesteins. I don’t mind the ride on my 19s though...

    Harumio requesting Tesla user name and password account

    When did you make your purchase? Here is Harumio’s reasoning for needing info. Guess it does come down to possible risks. Thank you all for your responses. As much as I would really like a CCS 1 adapter for road trips I can’t get past possible risks, albeit maybe remote, of giving a third...

    Harumio requesting Tesla user name and password account

    I ordered a CCS 1 adapter from Harumio about a month ago but the order was canceled when they ran out of stock. I recently inquired about when they would have stock again for purchasing.

    Navigation changes

    On this general topic I am a new Tesla owner and taking my first trip where I want to plug in routes and stops the night before I leave and before I have fully charged my Y for tomorrow. The navigation is deciding charging stops based on my current 50% SOC not the 95% SOC I will have tomorrow...

    All weather/winter tire for Model Y Performance - Alternatives to Nokian WRG4 and Micheline Cross Climate

    Thanks so much. Good to know. I love this Y but trying to find a good tire for both winter mountain travel and summer mountain non paved roads in the Pacific Northwest is challenging. Good to hear you didn’t feel the need to spend additional $$ for Martian or TSportline wheels.

    Single folding side mirror from touch screen?

    Just got my new Model Y LR yesterday. Love it. When I brought it hone I realized Y is wider than I thought and I have very little side clearance pulling the Y into the garage. Would be really helpful if I could fold just the right side mirror in from touch screen. Is this possible? Thanks for...
