    The Model 3 to Model Y Swap: An Attempt at a Cost Analysis

    I enjoyed your spreadsheet very much with 2 call outs: 1. How come final value is negative? Wouldn’t you include benefit of selling the Y in the end. are you saying that cost to own/use is $18.5k? Over how many years? 2. Tires estimate of $600 is light, even for the 19 inch ones ( inclusive of...

    Sold my MYSR for $15k profit and getting MYLR for same price

    Minor update here…emailed NJ Charge up program and the $5,000 (or basically whatever amount you get via Charge Up NJ) is amortized over 36mo. At this point if I traded, would owe $3300. I don’t think the current MYP is enough of a change (less the acceleration) to warrant the change.

    Sold my MYSR for $15k profit and getting MYLR for same price

    I think $65k is reasonable for a private sale. For trade, $65k is a tough ask unless you know someone who does export.

    Sold my MYSR for $15k profit and getting MYLR for same price

    Update… in NJ, if you took advantage of the Charge Up phase one promotion ($5,000 rebate), can’t sell your car for 36 months after registration. Didn’t know that (negligence on my part) until reading the fine print tonight. Looks like I’m still blue on 20s for the next 23 months.

    Sold my MYSR for $15k profit and getting MYLR for same price

    There’s capital gains tax on individual, private car sales?…but I also owned my car for over 12 months.

    Sold my MYSR for $15k profit and getting MYLR for same price

    More info as I get it….Got the Vroom contract there are 2 clauses (5 and 7) that got me concerned. Essentially, when they get the car and inspect it, they reserve the right to change the offer and if the seller doesn’t agree, they have to pay to have their car shipped back to them. I don’t see a...

    2021 MY LR trade in value?

    Tesla offered me $49,100 for my ‘21 MY LR with Induction wheels and 17k mi. I was kind of shocked - it’s so far below market value for trade in. I’m now looking at Vroom and Carvana. One thing I don’t get about Vroom yet is how they give a quote and send paperwork but don’t inspect the car. They...

    2021 MY LR trade in value?

    Thank you! Plus a little something for the induction wheels and I think I get the picture.

    2021 MY LR trade in value?

    Hello, What is a good resource for trade in values for a 2021 Blue MY LR with Induction wheels. Perfect condition and 17k mi. Edmunds isn’t giving me a number.

    Sold my MYSR for $15k profit and getting MYLR for same price

    I’m thinking about selling my ‘21 MY LR. Has anyone used Vroom or Carvana? Or am I better off trading directly to Tesla?

    Rear motor failure

    Howdy - I had a similar issue happen this morning. Barely drove 300ft out of my driveway when car started bucking several times, and 2 warnings: Power Reduced, Rear Motor Temporarily Disabled Vehicle Shutting Down, Pull Over Safely Did the tow setup via Tesla App and that was reasonably...

    Ecohitch in stock anywhere?

    Just a preference. I’d prefer to keep the crash bar.

    Ecohitch in stock anywhere?

    Hello all! Would anyone have any leads on any online stores that have the EcoHitch w/ 2” receiver in stock now for the Y. E-trailer says 9/6/21 availability and manufacturer says several weeks - which sounds like middle to late August. Im hoping to get it within 2 weeks - if possible -...

    Warranty on 20” Good Year tires

    Thanks for the suggestion. My heart is set on Michelin A/S 4, per the reviews…unless I can get a no cost replacement via warranty (probably highly unlikely).

    Warranty on 20” Good Year tires

    All warranty issues with the tires would be with Goodyear. You can take the Tesla to a Goodyear tire center to have the tires checked. In truth, the Tesla Model Y is a heavy vehicle, rear wheel biased. It is not unusual to need new tires, especially rear tires, by 20k miles even with regular...

    Warranty on 20” Good Year tires

    Hello, What is the mileage warranty for the OEM 20” Good Year tires? I’m currently at 7/32nds with 8,500mi on the tires and it’s concerning because I’m not sure these will make it to even 20k mi. Can’t say I drive this car any different than any of my other cars, but the rate at which these...

    Blue 2021 Model Y with gemini wheels photos

    Spend the money and get induction wheels. It goes beyond aesthetics - the tires are better on the 20” wheels. Road feel is sportier too - if that’s your thing.

    Why a Y Needs Mud Guards/Flaps

    My doors also have the same rock chipping everyone is talking about. I bought PPF and wanted to setup an appointment at dealer for some touch up paint to the affected areas and allocation of the film. At first I got an invoice for $80 to do all that. When I asked why it can’t be done under...

    Tesla Mud Flaps back in stock

    You mean the Tesla OEM ones? How’s the look in person?

    Tesla Mud Flaps back in stock

    What about the RPM Tesla ones? They look up be more stylish and sportier. The car definitely needs them as I have the car in the NE and after this winter have the paint chips on bottom of rear doors.

    Thank you for the itemized list. I feel relieved. Mine would be: Model Y LR AWD Blue Induction And sub-total is 52,990. The red with black wheels is a great combo!

    New Jersey NJ EV Rebate

    I applied in late November. I don’t anticipate hearing anything for a week or two. Does NJ include the destination charge into the MSRP? I was a hair under $55k with destination and all fees, less the financing charges associated with the loan.
