    NEW MODEL Y 18 inch at Tsportline?!

    I went with the Falken Wild Peaks directly from TSportline. They have been incredible on the icy snowy roads so far. No complaints and they were great when there was no snow.

    Yes for some reason mine occurs with both Auto Pilot or just Adaptive cruise activated. Almost every time it's when I am approaching a big rig truck and start to over take it while in the left lane. Drives me crazy and scares the crap out of all my passengers. Very frustrating. On a different...

    Thank you SunValley, I am eager to spend some time behind the wheel of it and let you guys know my thoughts. I too enjoy this forum group.

    Yes, it’s definitely a crap shoot but she’s down to make the switch to all electric so I want to take advantage of it. My ultimate goal was for her to love the Model Y so much that she’d want that and allow me to drive the Model S LR I ordered way back and expected next month. The thing is we...

    Yes, it’s the High Voltage Battery Junction Box that is getting fried on the Mach E. Supposedly the issue has been fixed in all new builds since a certain date according to the Mach E forums and some pretty reputable Ford guys in the forum. We shall see. High Power driving and lots of DC...

    I think I read an article about a new supercharger being installed in Island Park as well which would be a nice addition. We did a trip from Idaho Falls to Sundance UT and I was super nervous about the reaction my wife would have about the whole stopping to charge. On the way down we had to...

    Model Y 19" Gemini Wheel and Winter Tire Package On MYP

    As earlier stated I went with the T-Sportline 18” Wheels to have even more rubber. Where I live we have lots of pot holes, gravel and chip sealed roads. Went with the Falken Wild Peak All-Terrains which so far have been great. Technically I can keep them on year round if feeling lazy.

    Like many others I purchased them from T Sportline. They are awesome and have tons of different options. All wheels work with factory lugs etc. Check them out. They usually have great sales, I’d imagine Black Friday would be the next one.

    Well I have had her for almost a full month and just got her back from the tinter/PPF guy. Have been enjoying every moment I can with her, that is when I can get it back from my wife who seems to be stealing it quite a bit. She has a Ford Mustang Mach-E GT that goes into production Monday...

    Y performance winter tires

    😂 Honestly I have tried but they grip nicely… been super impressed. We have quite a bit of chip sealed asphalt roads as well as gravel and they just handle great. My wife said she preferred the looks of the stock but the 18’s are growing on her. I’m eager to see how they handle in the...

    Y performance winter tires

    So I live in Eastern Idaho and I have always gotten winter sets for all our vehicles. Just part of the game we play living in this climate. With my MYP I decided to go with TSportlines 18" Wheels and Falken Wild Peaks. This is the first time where I really could use the wheels year round. I...

    My issue seems to be only when connected to WiFi in my garage. Super strong signal but while at home I tend to have to force quit the app and still wait for the car to pop up so I can adjust charge setting and or climate etc. If the car is outside on the cellular network it pops up right away...

    The wood trim continues from the dash around to the door and ends in a triangle type shape. Also the inside of the door pocket is now carpeted for a nicer touch. It’s definitely an aesthetic thing that’s personal choice. Some people love it while others prefer the old door design. I don’t...

    So when is it safe to change your order from cash to financing? Once you get VIN or wait till delivery date is set up?

    VIN Assigned, Delivery in the next couple of days??

    I will have a check from my credit union for the full purchase price? Can I hand them the check while leaving it as a cash purchase in the app or must I tell them it is now being financed? Why do they care if I have a cashiers check for the entire amount?

    Question for my Idaho friends. So my credit union will give me a check for the entire amount of the purchase price to bring to Tesla. All they need is the VIN and once they have it will cut me the cashiers check. My question is do I need to change my option to financing or can I leave it as...

    Is Rocket a touchless? I used to be so anal in regards to washes but getting to the point where I just want to enjoy the car without stressing so much. And in the winters with all the salt dumped all over the place it’s nice to get that off with a quick run through a wash.

    That is a bummer. I’ve always been told that Tesla paint is soft due to the strict CA laws regarding VOC’s etc. Does that mean technically Texas made vehicles could potentially have more durable paint since I don’t believe Texas has the same rules?

    Ok, so the vehicle as is only allows data from the glove box USB port… and that’s where dash cam and sentry usb stick goes correct? So without this third party option there is no way to have downloaded music play off of a usb stick unless you were to remove the dash cam stick and use an MP3...

    Plates stay with the person in Idaho. If it’s a new vehicle from a dealership you currently get the temporary registration taped to your rear window and you take the pink bill of sale to your county DMV. I’ve also been able to do it online and save a trip to the DMV. They just ask for certain...

    I too was thinking of that as well, but it’s the dang potholes that scare me. I have had so many bent wheels from those things. Granted most of the potholes are in the winter months when I’d have the 18’s on… I honestly need to just relax and realize I have plenty of time to decide. It’s not...

    Yes - I decided to hold off. Like you both said who knows when I will actually see this vehicle. I do drive down to Souther California every 6 weeks or so, the plan would be to take them down there and list on Craigslist etc. Definitely would be a hard sale in Idaho.
