    What motor does your 2023 Model Y have?

    Has anyone done any acceleration or efficiency testing of the 4d1 equipped cars as compared to 990/3d1? Any difference or is it software limited to perform the same as the older motor?

    Toyota Mechanic Reviews the Model Y

    I hear you - not at all denying the potential for longevity of an LC. That said, from my experience, even on an LC stuff wears out and that stuff is expensive. Everything being oversized and overbuilt is an advantage in specific use case scenarios. Paris-Dakar comes to mind. It is not clear to...

As someone who has owned five Toyotas, the case for “legendary Toyota reliability” is somewhat overblown. In many ways the biggest proponents of this narrative are the mechanics who make their...

    Show of hands… Adaptive Suspension

    Show of hands… Adaptive Suspension

    Hi Steve Maybe you answered this question - but I didn’t see it in your video or this thread… Have you ridden in someone else’s car that you feel DOES work? So for example at the service center or at a Tesla meetup have you been able to ride with someone who has a model s or X where there was a...
