    Model y Lr 2023 in the snow

    I live in Vail, CO. The stock Continental tires are down right dangerous on snow. At a minimum get a pair of Cross Climate tires if you don't want to get stuck.

    Snow tires?

    I live in Vail, CO. Ran the Pirelli Sottozero's last year without issue. This year I'm going with the Michelin X-ice option. Before those I ran Blizzak's, but those don't fit on our car. If you haven't noticed it yet, you'll burn through tires like crazy. The Michelin ones have a 40k mile...

    Problems with “energy app”?

    Those numbers are much better than mine! This is me driving 30 miles of interstate, 30F, 80mph, 2000ft elevation gain. Normal is around 350-450 KW/hr depending on the weather.

    Update showing different Wh/mi?

    So I noticed in the past few days that my Wh/mi is just stupid. Plan stupid. Interestingly, I've owned this car now for 14 months and have a good idea what kind of range I get for any given drive/temperature. I live in the mountains and it can be -10F when I'm headed to work. With that said...

    Is the heated wiper tray just weak on the ‘22+ Model Y?

    It's better than not having it but it's not a godsend. Hard to keep those things melted when your effective windchill is like -40F on the highway in a wet snowstorm.

    Teslas - Family /w Teenagers

    If he's on the highway would you rather he have a crash in a 4runner at 70mph or a tesla at 120? Actually, most new cars are very safe and the 4runner is one of those. I'm a trauma doc so I see quite a bit of blunt trauma :)

    Thoughts on 19" Gemini Wheel and Pirelli Winter Tire Package

    I live in the Vail Valley and have a MYLR. The only winter option I could get my hands on last year were those tires. They work fine. I'm used to the Blizzak's and a 4runner TRD. These are just as good if not better on the highway. I've played with the car on some forest service roads, 6-8...

    Screen bugs out. How many times do you see it?

    Hey guys, Been in a 2022 MYLR since February. While driving around it'll suddenly freeze the UI on the screen, then shear the image, then tries to reset, and finally results in a reboot of the system. Sometimes it goes back to where it was and other times the camera's aren't showing up or there...

    Teslas - Family /w Teenagers

    Drove a supercharged mustang and a civic as a teen. I think I hit 150mph in both multiple times. Used to street race as well. A tesla is a key to do the same so make sure you want them doing this kind of stuff! If the car can do it either they or their friends will push it to the limit. Can't...

    Tesla $7500 Tax Credit Coming Back?

    Saw an article today saying that 2022 cars would now be eligible for a tax credit. Specifically the model 3 and model y. I thought nothing took effect until 2023. Is there something else in the bill?

    2022 Model Y battery question - Navigation claiming I'll run out of charge

    2022 Model Y battery question - Navigation claiming I'll run out of charge

    Hey guys, Started to notice this over the past few weeks or so. It'll load a navigation, typically to work or back home, and claim that I'll run out of charge on the way. As you can see, it's a precipitous drop to zero from 50-60%, which doesn't make great sense. If I reset the navigation it...

    Tow hitch bike rack for model y

    The chimes turn off when I enter into trailer mode, but the warnings continue to pop up on the left side of the screen. Also, I have to go into trailer mode every time that I stop the car and then get back in. This is a pain in the ass as I plan on keeping the rack on between now and October...

    Tow hitch bike rack for model y

    What is annoying with a bike rack is that you can't turn off the warnings about parking sensons being block and parking assist not working well. Also having to put it in trailer mode every day is annoying.

    Snippiness 2.0

    Did you even read my post? It seems like half. of the posts on this forum talk about shitty paint, quality issues with panels, etc. This is nothing new.

    Raging over a comment that was made 3 months ago? Calling me a prick in private messages? Everyone on here suggested ppf. Sorry your car got damaged.

    At Home Charging costs vs. Superchargers

    Just got my first bill from our energy co-op after buy a MYLR. I used ~400kw more this month then historically (~1500 miles of driving) and it cost me $40 at 10cents/kwh. At first I was like "oh no!" but then realized I used to spend $400-600/mo to drive my 4Runner the same distance.

    1k Roadtrip with MY - looks like my car was sandblasted.

    Nope. I had ordered the mudflaps and had scheduled ppf to be installed 2 days later. I didn't do a full wrap, but have some protection on the car and the sides were actually cheaper (cost + installation) than the tesla stuff with self-install. I saw about 10 MY's on the lot and non had...

    1k Roadtrip with MY - looks like my car was sandblasted.

    My 2022 MYLR in CO did not have flaps or ppf. I installed flaps in the lot and PPF on the doors a few days later.

    We have so much gravel on the roads here in Colorado. It sounds worse than driving down an actual gravel road. Really fun on the windshields too.

    High altitude arctic range (example)

    Took my shiny new MYLR up and over Vail pass this morning. I live at 7k feet and the pass is ~11k feet. Temps were as low as -6F (-15c). Some wind for sure. Look at this w/hr data!

    Lets talk cameras

    It happens if the car has been parked outside for 8-10 hours as well. What's interesting is the camera alert will pop up for 10-30 seconds then go away. 20 minutes later it'll appear with a different camera or perhaps the same one in question. I commute ~45 minutes both ways and it occurs on...

    Lets talk cameras

    Two week old MYLR with Ryzen. Every day that I get into the car to drive to work I get a slew of different alerts about various cameras being blocked or blinded. Front left fender and left pillar seem to be the biggest problem, but I occasionally get others as well. Some appear to be fogging...

    What tires should I be hoping for on a MYLR with the default 19 inch wheels? All season? All weather? Made by whom?

    Mine came with the Continental tires 2 weeks ago. Some are getting the Michelin Pilot Sport 4's, which most feel are an upgrade. I kept mine in for 4 days and then put on snow tires from Pirelli. If it's dry it probably doesn't matter what tire you're running. Some get 40k from the stock tires...

    Could Tesla crash fatality be due to "sudden braking"?

    I've had mine drop from 83mph to 68 in about 2 seconds in the interstate. It typically slows to the speed of the 18 wheeler in the slow lane (2 lane interstate). I've never experienced it on a smaller road with oncoming traffic causing the braking. My area doesn't really lend itself to this type...
