    Discussion: Model 3 and Y price drop Jan 2023 / April 2023 / Oct 2023 and All other Pricing Speculation going forward

    Who else who has a MY LR or Performance has driven the 2023 S and X? I was amazed at how much better built those vehicles feel, never mind the way they take the bumps in the road.

    Discussion: Model 3 and Y price drop Jan 2023 / April 2023 / Oct 2023 and All other Pricing Speculation going forward

    I'm feeling better already, you are right, after 5+ years, the used prices will stabilize. It is a paper loss only. Still your are also right, Tesla monthly price changes do make the front page, there should be a futures market for these vehicles!

    Discussion: Model 3 and Y price drop Jan 2023 / April 2023 / Oct 2023 and All other Pricing Speculation going forward

    Good points, especially on the heated steering wheel, at least I got that! Not sure the price will go back up anywhere near what we paid. I will say this, I certainly will delay my Cybertruck order until the prices come DOWN.

    Discussion: Model 3 and Y price drop Jan 2023 / April 2023 / Oct 2023 and All other Pricing Speculation going forward

    $18K price reduction in 1 year divided by 20 years, if I were to keep the car that long, is $900/year I meant, good catch! Who else has this situation...

    Discussion: Model 3 and Y price drop Jan 2023 / April 2023 / Oct 2023 and All other Pricing Speculation going forward

    Wondering how many people are in this situation? I bought my 2022 MY Performance, took delivery in July 2022, total out the door price was $76.5K including taxes and fees. Yesterday I went to the Tesla shop, test drove an X and S. Both those cars are a lot smoother than the MY in my opinion...

    Best to charge to 60%?

    Yes this was exactly my question!

    Best to charge to 60%?

    If we only use the Model Y for 30-40 miles a day, is it best to set the overnight charge maximum to 60%? I ask because I read several times if the car isn’t being used (vacation) for weeks or months, best to set the max to 50-60% for battery life.

    Tesla vs. Rally Armor mud flaps coverage comparison pics

    I just read another post you can reverse them, to not show the logo. https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/threads/rally-armor-mud-flaps-you-can-reverse-them-so-that-you-cant-see-the-rogo.250065/

    Tesla vs. Rally Armor mud flaps coverage comparison pics

    Thanks for the advice! I looked at those early this morning, and wasn’t sure about the blue logo, they don’t offer a more discrete black logo. Great comparison to the OEM, a lot bigger!

    Model Y Performance Mud Flaps?

    I have read that the 21" Model Y Performance tires require bigger mud flaps for protection. I am looking for both front and rear, does anyone have advice on what brand to consider? Thanks!

    Longer term storage at 50% or 90%?

    Thanks! Curious why you recommend 60% instead of 50%, which I have seen online before?

    Longer term storage at 50% or 90%?

    Thanks very much. I have been keeping it at 50% when away for a month or more. Is there any advantage to keeping it at 60%? The reply below from gcell recommends this level.

    Longer term storage at 50% or 90%?

    I have a 2021 Model Y LR. I am away for weeks and sometimes several months at a time, and the car is plugged in to 14-50 240V outlet in the garage. Is there any advantage to keeping the charge maximum at 50% vs at 90%? I read a couple places online 50% is better for the battery.

    Model Y Steering Wheel Heat Temperature?

    Is there an ambient temperature on a heated steering wheel Model Y where you can feel the temperature difference? Tesla recently replace the steering wheel on my 2022 MY Performance because of a cosmetic defect. The MY is BRAND new and was just delivered last week. On the drive back, 72 degree...

    VIN assigned - Fremont Model Y Performance - Defer for Austin Model Y?

    Thanks for the advice! I took delivery and the car is awesome! I do have a slight ridge on my steering wheel, wondering if anyone else has this. I made an appointment at Tesla for them to look.

    Bump / Ridge on Steering Wheel?

    Thanks for the idea. I have a service appointment, let’s see what Tesla says. Not sure it would flatten with heat. I was asking also to see if anyone else got this on their model 3 or Y.

    Bump / Ridge on Steering Wheel?

    Just picked up my 2022 Model Y Performance yesterday and noticed a quality defect on the steering wheel. There’s an area that the steering wheel cover is bunched, creating a bump/ridge. I have a 2021 Model Y LR and the steering wheel is perfect. Has anyone run into this, or had it fixed by...

    VIN assigned - Fremont Model Y Performance - Defer for Austin Model Y?

    This morning, I got my Model Y Performance VIN, with delivery August 15-18. So it's coming. I looked online, and can't find the answers to some of my questions: - about when will the Model Y Performance ship from Austin? - what are the main differences between the 2 MYs from Austin and Freemont...

    New iPhone 13 Pro Max in a case does not work with the 2021 Model 3 wireless charging pad

    I’d like to try this. Same issue here. Can you be a little more specific on the strip of felt? Is the case then not in contact with the charging pad, but somehow still works?
