    Model Y Performance too low?

    Time to learn geometry and physics.

    Bought Tesla Model Y from Inventory

    I parallel parked once in my MYP. Was trying to avoid curb rash and was like 8” away from Curb. Tried to get just a little closer so I wasn’t sticking out in street. Was adjusting forward so no camera assistance. Barely brushed the curb for a split second and got 2” of curb rash on passenger...

    Model Y Performance too low?

    Parking lot speed bumps? Or street? I never scrape over the big speed bumps in the road. It’s the small ones in parking lots that I scrape on.

    Model Y Performance too low?

    I have the stock 21” with Pilot Sport AS. It’s barely scraping, so I may try a 29” setup before the lift. The extra .5” should do the trick for my daily driving.

    Model Y Performance too low?

    I’m pretty sure is the undercarriage.

    Model Y Performance too low?

    Bringing up old thread to add that I scrape every day in my MYP. I scrape over every speed bump in a parking lot. I scrape exiting businesses that have driveways to the road that are slightly steep. I’d guess I scrape nearly every day. It’s kind of a PITA. So much so that I’m going to do...

    Im going on nearly a month with no freezing issue. I considered it solved with the firmware update.

    Model Y Not Worth the Price Now [Nov 2022]

    I felt the same way, including the Macan EV. I thought about waiting for it but who knows when the top trim would be available, how easy it would be to secure, and if the range would be sufficient. So for me the MYP was absolutely worth it at this price. 😎

    Model Y Not Worth the Price Now [Nov 2022]

    I find it appealing at that price. The competition is very unappealing, at any price.

    Model Y Not Worth the Price Now [Nov 2022]

    Well, I agree facts are facts and feelings are subjective. I disagree on leather being better. That’s definitely subjective. I chose vinyl in my F250 because the seats get covered in mud and saltwater. Vinyl definitely better in that application. My Prius had synthetic seats that I preferred...

    Model Y Not Worth the Price Now [Nov 2022]

    100% agree. I wish Tesla wouldn’t do that… I drove every EV out there before buying my MYP. Most of them I rented for multiple days. I tried to convince myself that many of them were superior in terms of the driving experience because I didn’t want a Tesla. None of them came close for me. Money...

    Model Y Not Worth the Price Now [Nov 2022]

    I would take the MY interior all day long except for the ventilated seats. I value front windshield visibility and openness. I don’t want to feel like I’m in a cockpit.

    Are door stops adjustable? Poorly thought out first stop.

    I find the the first door hinge stop terribly thought out. The stop is so close to closed that I can barely squeeze in the door and I'm a slender guy. Its just worthless to have the door stop here. Its just held open enough for my 4yr old to climb in. Is there a way to adjust this stop? I'd...

    Model Y Not Worth the Price Now [Nov 2022]

    There is no real competition IMO, so it’s absolutely worth it…if you can afford it.

    Touch Screen Not responsive?

    For anyone else reading this thread, here is a message to me from Tesla regarding the issue. This was two weeks ago.

    Touch Screen Not responsive?

    I have not encountered the issue in a week or so. It may have resolved with 2022.36.4 for me. I just updated to 2022.36.6 and have not had the issue either.

    Nema 14-30 to 14-50 adapter

    I got 2 quotes. New panel, new larger meter and then the line for charging. Seems insane.

    Nema 14-30 to 14-50 adapter

    I’m in the same boat. $6,000 to upgrade the panel/meter just to get dedicated charging in garage. Ugh Especially tough decision because 90% of the time my 110v giving me 40 miles overnight is just fine. But when it isn’t, kind of a pain.

    Nema 14-30 to 14-50 adapter

    This is not a concern from an electrical perspective as the line and the outlet are rated for continuous draw. It’s simply a 240v 30amp outlet which I’ve now learned Tesla makes an adapter for. 😎 This is an issue for sure. Frequently unplugging over time loosens the connection of any outlet...

    Nema 14-30 to 14-50 adapter

    I’m in the process of doing this. Unfortunately it involves an upgraded panel and new meter….. there goes my gas savings for the next five years! 🤣😫

    Had. I idea this was available. Searched the site and didn’t see it. The Tesla shop search kinda sucks Thanks. Ordered.

    Nema 14-30 to 14-50 adapter

    I don’t have L2 charging installed at my house yet but do have my dryer outlet accessible. It is nema 14-30. Has anyone used one of these adapters for charging and knows if they are safe? I’d prefer to not swap out the outlet and change my dryer cord, but will if necessary. In general I do...

    FSD Inaccurate distance calculations

    My worker was right in the middle of my lane, definitely not a typical spot for a stop sign. What you say about size of the sign and calculating distance makes a lot of sense if it can’t really determine the pole. I should add I was also first in line.

    The number of used Tesla 3/Y available is staggering

    Due to NAFTA rules apparently.

    2019 Model S Long Range (Raven)

    You really need to see pictures of the display. In addition to what’s mentioned above look for the display to say adaptive air suspension. When I was searching for a 2019 Raven build, carvana and the other sites seemed to intentionally omit this info and refused to provide pictures of the...

    FSD Inaccurate distance calculations

    I drive by tons of cones every day and try to push the AP limits, safely, driving down cone corridors. The FSD preview is remarkably accurate with the cones.

    FSD Inaccurate distance calculations

    This is what is most interesting. The camera captured the raw data showing the precise location of the sign. The rendering engine then chose to disregard the raw data and place the stop sign in a different location.

    FSD Inaccurate distance calculations

    In my context it didn’t matter from an actual driving standpoint. To me it was more interesting from a logic standpoint. Clearly the camera saw the stop sign right next to the man holding it. But for some reason it’s logic determined that stop signs generally exist in certain places on...

    FSD Inaccurate distance calculations

    There is lots of construction around me so I’ll try to recreate. It showed a person in the correct spot. It also showed a stop sign on a center island relatively far away from the person even though the person was holding the stop sign.

    FSD Inaccurate distance calculations

    I only have FSD preview. I as stopped at construction a few days ago and there was a man holding a stop sign. FSD showed the man at the correct spot. He was not moving or waving the stop sign. Everything was stationary. FSD displayed the stop sign on a center island at least 10’ behind him and...

    2 Drive Unit Failure Within 8 Days

    I would pursue lemon law return if possible. The odds are low the first unit failed because it was bad and the second because of a poor install. I think it’s more likely there is an issue with the electrical system and it’s causing issue with the drive unit. I expect you’ll have another drive...

    2022 MYP MCU constantly freezing

    I believe it. I don’t have FSD anything. And from what it appears in my case it’s clearly software related. I don’t think they have any clue where in the code to look for the bug…..

    Tesla just confirmed that is a known firmware issue and they are working on a firmware update but do not have an ETA for its rollout.

    2022 MYP MCU constantly freezing

    I’ve never touched my usb. Nothing on it. That would also be some crappy programming by the software team if the type/size of the drive or file names on it could cause the McU to freeze.

    2022 MYP MCU constantly freezing

    Will do. I have video and time stamps. I’ve read Tesla has acknowledged to some people it’s a firmware issue…. I’m going to do my best to get an answer!

    22% Rate Increase from Geico 🤬

    It’s a complicated forumula but here is the basics: Insurance companies have “risk pools”. They try to balance out the risk pools with good drivers and mediocre drivers in order to have the payouts in that pool be predictable. (Truly bad drivers are in their own type of high risk pool)...

    How long until we get a 400+ mile model Y?

    Who knows. But Seattle has about half the radiation and 40x the population of Yuma. You can do the math on the needed area for panels to power seattle versus Yuma. Tesla is not going to make trillions selling retail electricity. Tesla is not going to make trillions selling electricity...

    How long until we get a 400+ mile model Y?

    Thats true for most technology. But we cant change the amount of energy from the sun hitting the earth. There is an absolute maximum amount that we can harvest. And my point, related to previous posts, was that Tesla isn't staking their future profits on selling solar energy at superchargers...
