    Keeping car outside & charging with 120v

    Thanks for such detailed answers! So helpful. If I left sentry mode on throughout the week, what’s the average battery drain with no charge?

    Keeping car outside & charging with 120v

    My landlord said he can install a 240v 20amp for $450. For that price would it be more worth it to have him install the NEMA 14-50?

    Keeping car outside & charging with 120v

    I've heard it can damage your battery. Is this a myth? If not I might just rely on supercharging 99.9% of the time. I'd hope the 120V would atleast be able to keep me charged or warm enough to charge up over 2-3 days/week with the 50A extension cord. Yes, I'm talking about the NEMA 14, but...

    Keeping car outside & charging with 120v

    Also noting that I have a number of superchargers nearby. I plan to use this as well, but don't want to solely rely on it because I've heard it hurts battery life.

    Keeping car outside & charging with 120v

    Hey! My Model Y is on order and planned for delivery in Jan/Feb. I'm trying to figure out some charging options ahead of time because I won't have a garage until at least June/July. For now, I'll be parking the car on the street and wiring an extension cord from a 120V outlet. My landlord said...

    Any change in TPMS on the gemini/inductions? or can I use existing? If only they weren't out of stock :'(

    Model Y Performance - Winter Tire Options?

    Also, if I decided to stick with my 21" wheels, would it be pretty easy to swap off the Pirelli tires for a winter tire rather than getting new wheels?

    Model Y Performance - Winter Tire Options?

    Would a 45 or 50 fit onto the martian wheels?

    Model Y Performance - Winter Tire Options?

    And would it be the 255/40/19 tires for the martian wheels? Do I have that right? I guess we'll wait and see if the car actually comes with all season or not. Might just wait to buy until I figure that out.

    Model Y Performance - Winter Tire Options?

    Are you sure you can use gemini on the performance model y? Im not sure about that. It says on tesla's website "Note: This package is not compatible with Model Y Performance Dual Motor All-Wheel Drive configured with 21" Performance Wheels. "

    Model Y Performance - Winter Tire Options?

    Might go with the martian wheels: Martian 19 And Crossclimate tire: https://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires.jsp?tireMake=Michelin&tireModel=CrossClimate2 Any idea if I'd need a new TPMS for these or would the existing ones work? For those wheels I'd need the 255/40/19 right? New to choosing tires...

    Best way to maintain paint / on car in a cost effective way?

    Could I have tesla add the coating or would I need to go to an autobody shop for this?

    Best way to maintain paint / on car in a cost effective way?

    What are some good ways that I can protect my model Y? It'll be outside during the winter so I want to keep it in good condition during year 1. Do y'all have recommendations about what I'll need to buy to protect the paint on my car? I've heard front ceramic coating is helpful. What's the...

    Model 3 vs Model Y

    This is the dream. Agree model Y until we have another is probably the way to go

    Model 3 vs Model Y

    Would it be worth waiting for when the newer batteries release? I hear once the Texas factory is fully online that we’ll be getting better batteries in the 2022 models. Is this enough to justify waiting 6 more months? I’d assume this would be new batteries for both the LR and P, right?

    Model 3 vs Model Y

    Hey, y'all - trying to decide between the Model 3 and Y. This is an SOS, because I'm pretty stuck between the two and currently have the model Y on order. I'm having second thoughts after driving both multiple times and would love some advice. My goal is to use either car for some occasional...

    Can I leave my car outside year round?

    Thanks y'all-- Any idea where I can find some winter tires the same price as the gemini package? I went with the performance model but need winter tires for the next few months.

    Can I leave my car outside year round?

    Hear ya on the charger. I hope my landlord installs it. This is the right one, right?: Wall Connector So no worry about battery degradation? If I resell in 3-4 years will it be at a similar value as if it was in a garage or will it have noticeably less range?

    Can I leave my car outside year round?

    I also would have sentry mode turned off in some cases to save battery

    Can I leave my car outside year round?

    My landlord may install a charger outside of their garage, but until they've agreed to that my plan was to charge at a nearby supercharging station. There's a few about 5 miles from me

    Can I leave my car outside year round?

    I'm looking to buy a tesla model y and own it year-round but there's one potential problem: I don't have a garage. I also live in Minnesota where temps get pretty cold. My plan is to charge it after every other drive and I only plan to drive it maybe 3 times a week. I also plan to monitor its...
