Just posted this as a reply to another thread …… but felt like putting it out there a little more prominently …… just to see if it starts something. I gotta say ….. I think the whole range discussion is totally artificial. Maybe helpful when comparing cars for purchase … maybe. Around town ……...

No cracks! Yay Took a little imagination to get it up there …… and some finesse to get it back down.

So I just thought I’d share. Got a Model Y a couple-ish years ago and finally couldn’t stand driving our ICE second car any more. Just picked up a new M3 last weekend to replace it. So now we are fully de-ICEd over here ………… but I had to figure out how to charge both cars. I live in a crummy...

…… just saying.

Anybody besides me take a sudden hit on Rated Range after upgrading from 2021.12.25.6 to ……7? My upgrade installed at around 4,100 miles

So a few days ago, overnight parked at my Airbnb, sentry mode reported 79 events ……. And did not record a single one. Very puzzling. And it happened again last night. We got home ….. getting settled in Airbnb ……… headlights flashed …….. nothing going on ……… so I disabled sentry mode. But...

Thought I’d start a little journal here for my first road trip. Might be interesting to some ….. but feel free to ignore if not. Heading from NE Mississippi up to northern NJ to welcome our first grandchild. Fairly big moment for us. So I have way over-planned everything with the car. Got...

….. instead of having to go out and get in the car to do it there. (unless I missed something in a manual somewhere) Just saying ……..

Just wondering what everyone’s experience has been with maintenance or service on their Model Ys. In my case, I had it into the SC at around 1,000 miles to fix a couple of delivery issues and haven’t been back since. But I’m only up to 2,148 now. Hoping to go a lot longer, of course.

I recently installed the electric frunk from Tesla Offer. Love it. Works great. But I’ve noticed (I think) that the “buzzer” seems to beep now and then seemingly on its own. It beeps as it should when the frunk is opening and closing, but I also hear it beep from time to time even when not...

So … had a county-wide power interruption last night. Wife and I got bored and sat in car watching Amazon Prime Video. What a hoot …… to go out and sit in car during power failure. Watching vid. Better sound than my living room. It was fun. BUT Is there a way to maximize the browser...

Just thought I’d report another positive experience. Had the Y in for service today at the Memphis Service Center. Couple of interior trim issues at delivery needing correction: Switches in trunk for folding rear seats down didn’t work Driver side front pillar trim installed behind guide...

Discovered this today. Thinking I did it with my watchband sometime in last few days ..... maybe from leaning on car with left hand while wiping door with right. 🧐 :eek: 🤦‍♂️😥 (Note to self: “increase awareness of appendages”) So ..... anybody got any ideas on how to touch that up? There...

So .... new owner here. Been to a couple superchargers so far. I think I basically understand that it’s best to choose a stall that is not adjacent to another vehicle, to avoid sharing power and thereby slowing both of us down. But unsure of which stall to choose when all alternating spots...

Are you worried about your order? Are you wondering if the delivery dates will ever settle down to a firm commitment? Are you worried about having everything lined up before delivery? Are you worried that there will be a bunch of things wrong with your car? Are you worrying about all the...

My projected delivery window is settling down on a week I have prior commitments that prohibit me from taking delivery then. If the date settles down into that range, will I have any flexibility to adjust/delay it by a few days (worst case 5 business days)?

Anybody own a Tesla around here? Just wondering if I’ll have any company once I pull the trigger.

Hey everyone - I’m real close to pulling the trigger on a Model Y. But: My closest showroom is about 150 miles away (I have a test drive scheduled there as my last checkpoint before ordering) My closest service center is about 100 miles away The nearest supercharger is about 40 miles away...

Okay - sorry if this is a repeat .... but I’ve only been able to find incomplete or conflicting info so far .... Has anyone used the Tesla tire repair kit (compressor and sealant)? Did it work? Is there another reinflation kit out there that has been used successfully with the Tesla...

I’ll likely be ordering an MYLP in the coming weeks ......... and I have a question. Like many others raised on ICE, I have learned to use a lower (2 or 1) gear on steep ascents or descents. I get that regenerative braking will help me not light my brakes on fire coming down off Mt. Mansfield...

So I rent a house out in the middle of nowhere - and I’m about to order a Model Y. The nearest Supercharger is 50 miles away so I will definitely want a rapid charging option at home. But I’m not sure it would be a good idea to install a Tesla Wall Connector given I am renting. My landlord...

Okay - new guy here - first post. Sorry for all the blah, blah, blah ...... I decided to buy a Tesla last week. For several year’s I’ve been dreaming of one. Wife and I rode in a stunning red Model S courtesy car while staying at the Hutton Hotel in Nashville a while back. It was the one...
