    Picture of your Model Y - Right Now!

    Very nice and the wheel arch flares look great (got some for a subtle wider look) I just need a rear diffuser to finish off mine.

    New Martian wheels, new droning noise

    Is it possible someone bent your brake dust shield behind the rotor while mounting the wheels? (if so, its easy to just bend it back to not have contact with the rotor) (thin piece of metal, pretty sure all cars have that shield happened to me on my BMW just use your hand to bend it out of the...

    battery drain airport parking

    Agree with everyone else turn off sentry and youre good. I parked for a month for a trip to Japan and car lost maybe 2 percent? ( i randomly would enable sentry via the app to look at the cameras briefly and then turned it back off)

    Stuck in traffic questions

    I feel bumper to bumper traffic is "best" for EVs as in my experience I use very little battery in NYC traffic versus me speeding around on the highway.

    One Year Anniversary - The Good, The Bad and The Interesting

    Good stats, and also a year for me too. Fellow heavy footed MYP driver here but I have 20s with 275 width instead so worse efficiency 10,919 miles

    Y Performance Model- Looking for Insights

    22 MYP here, pros : power/tech/lack of maintenance needed (so far) cons: none so far (some people have squeaks/rattles etc lucked out) suspension isnt really rough for me (previous cars bmws with 20inch rims and runflat tires). I did switch from the 21s to aftermarket 20s on the MYP (ride...

    My Two Week Review - Heading towards 300,000 Miles

    Like others have said for EV v ICE maintenance costs/running costs it depends on which ICE. For me the Tesla saves a lot more and has way less maintenance (so far) plus I love the tech My N62 powered X5 (V8) is garbage on fuel ~10mpg in NYC requiring premium fuel ~$4.40 per gallon. Maintenance...

    DIY tire rotation

    I may get a second jack to make my next rotation faster ( I do have a scissor jack for my spare wheel) but didnt want to chance balancing the car on that and my floor jack. If you have a spare wheel you can just use your one jack swap out one wheel put on the spare and repeat for each wheel. I...

    DIY tire rotation

    Got around to doing it and think it was worth it, my rear tires were slightly more worn than my fronts and got to test out my ModernSpare which rotating wheels (one floor jack). For a second I was worried as my lug wouldnt fit into the ModernSpare hole then realized they alternate between narrow...

    DIY tire rotation

    Is it too late for me to rotate tires ~9,000 miles on this set of wheels, been meaning to rotate at 6,000 but lazy etc. Previous cars were all staggered so couldnt really rotate

    Bugs in MY

    I forgot some fast food in my car for a few days, no bugs but I park in my enclosed garage which probably made the difference

    Finally drove a Model Y…it was incredible!!

    Get the MYP if you want to stoplight race lol, older e92 m3 was revving at me and I knew he had no chance (big bimmer enthusiast, Tesla made me switch brands) the rush off the line is amazing and his v8 has almost no power down low it wasnt even close

    2023 Model Y: Performance vs Acceleration Boost vs Long Range

    Just go with the MYP if you care most about 0-60, easiest to do and not think about other variables its the best MY for performance from the factory as is. And if you want to mod you're still ahead. Its a stop light racing king stock

    Picture of your Model Y - Right Now!

    I had tints done, changed rims to 20" with 275 40 20 tires ( more grippy/comfier than the 21s it came with), cosmetic carbon bits on the side mirror, side camera covers, going to put a lip on it, and want to put a diffuser/side skirts for aesthetics. Probably best performance related upgrade...

    2 MY Household

    I'd do it, or another tesla product, love them. We have 3 cars at the moment, G05 X5, and an E70 X5 ( e70 is almost worth nothing now so just using it for random tasks or bad weather until it breaks completely) when it does I'd love to replace it with a model y or other ev. Almost no...

    Regrets [Anyone regret trading in their ICE for their Tesla?]

    No, regrets I really love it and all the perks/features. I do still have ICE cars but rarely drive them as one pedal driving is so comfortable (which is ironic as I was most worried about that before I bought the car (didnt test drive etc just ordered the MYP online and hoped for the best) and...

    Model Y tint pictures

    Most cops dont care about tint, if i get a ticket ill pay it theres tons of people with tints/modified exhausts etc lots of car clubs/scenes in NYC with tons of "unapproved" mods you dont have to be "highly connected or elite" which I doubt theyd even have a "cheap" tesla
