    Is NEMA 14-50 AND Tesla Wall Connector a good idea?

    Either the wall connector or a NEMA 14-50 will work well for Tesla charging. In the future if you wanted to remove a wall connector and install a NEMA 14-50 that would not be difficult or costly to do as long as your electrician runs all 4 wires (2 hots, a neutral, and a ground) required for a...

    Tesla replacing ultrasonic sensors with Tesla Vision

    This is pretty disappointing. It makes no sense to remove the sensors before the vision based features are sufficiently developed to provide the same function as the ultrasonic sensors do. There are only 2 reasons that I can see to remove the sensors now: 1. Inadequate supply of the sensors...

    One thing you LOVE and DISLIKE about your Model Y

    Love: Instant Torque Hate: phantom braking - I my mind all other other flaws are nothing compared to this one. (I like the seats!)

    Polestar 2 Fully loaded experience and comparison

    I considered the Polestar 2 before I purchased my MYLR. For me the key factory that eliminated the Polestar was how far I live from a service facility. (~5 hours) vs. ~1.5 hours for Tesla. I must comment that Tesla has not always implemented technology well. During my first 2 months of Tesla...

    Phantom braking in my new Model Y

    My car is working better than ever on 2022.4.5.17 I just changed my car to standard updates from advanced as going to 2022.8.2 does not appear to be an improvement. The last update changed my car from a phantom braking nightmare on my daily commute to the best car I have ever owned. I don't...

    Phantom Braking issues improved in 2022.4.5.17 update?

    I really hesitate to say this, but my 2022 vision only model YLR seems to be improved since the 2022.4.5.17 update. I will watch it closely, but I am hopeful that this make the car worth keeping as I found the phantom breaking on 2 lane undivided highways intolerable before.

    MYLR vs Subaru Outback: Outback better AP and reliability?

    I own a Crosstrek and a model YLR. The Crosstrek has vision based adaptive cruise control that actually works properly. That said the MY is in another league when it comes to overall technology and performance. Subaru's are great cars with an outstanding AWD system, but they tend to be real...

    Phantom braking in my new Model Y

    Strangely enough after 5 weeks of MY ownership driving almost entirely on 2 lane non-divided highways my phantom breaking issues seem to be improving. Not sure why, but semi trucks and buses don't seem to make the system freak out like it did when I first go the car. I still have issues and I...

    Phantom braking in my new Model Y

    I have also found that the phantom braking problem on two land non-divided highways goes away when I am following another vehicle in my lane and the speed of my car is being matched to the car in front of me. In that situation the oncoming traffic does not seem to cause TACC to react at all.

    Phantom Braking

    You don't likely live in an area where 2 lane non-divided highways are the only available roads. I am learning that purchasing my model Y was a mistake as it lacks a usable cruise control on 2 lane highways with on coming traffic. I have had my model Y for 2 weeks. I have neighbor with a...
