    2020 MYLR climate failure - heat pump replacement out of warranty $$$

    I bet a simple honda crv radiator replacement would run you near $1000. So $2k is not bad at all

    Model Y AWD Owner Feedback

    50 mi EPA range difference (between MYAWD and MYLR) * 85% real world range * 70% usable charge (if you keep state of charge between 15% - 85%) = real world daily 30 mile range difference (which can be increased a few miles when charged to 100%)

    Discussion: Model Y General Waiting room for orders placed After January 2023

    NY delivery OD 1/15 Picked up 2/24 - thoroughly inspected the Y, no issues. The alignment was solid - Austin build. Paint was good. Scheduled a service appointment for some minor nit-picky issues they agreed to resolve/replace on the B-pillar glass and driver headrest, but I would have been...

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

    This 2023 tax year credit appears on the 2023 tax return which you will file Jan - Apr 2024. Your income produces a tax liability. If that tax liability is greater or equal to $7500, then you get the full credit (assuming your AGI is within the limits, and irs does not change anything in...

    - “Sense of mechanical urgency and drama” ? I have an obnoxious neighbor with a car like that…. Everyone on the block can’t stand the sound of his car. - a white Honda Crv EXL has MSRP of $37k, my MY build is $45k after ev credit. The $8k can easily be eliminated with fuel savings after several...

    Too Reasons why I want to buy a model Y: - the feeling of stepping on that accelerator. it’s like an alien technology; super quiet, instant, almost like something is pulling the car forward instead of the car pushing forward. No gas car can ever match this feeling, never. - price is now on par...

    Me too, I pickup this Friday. Remember folks, about 12,000 teslas are delivered per week in US. The happy stories are much less likely to post than the ugly stories. Imagine what thousands of “all ok” posts on this forum would look like?

    How much are you willing to pay extra for HW4? I saw a $2k increase after my order date and I don’t want to pay that much extra for HW4. Who knows where MY price will be when it gets announced.

    Phantom Breaking on recent road trip

    I have a 2018 Honda minivan. Experienced phantom braking from day 1. The annoying part is, I have to remember to shutoff the auto-braking EVERY time I turn on the car. An investigation has been opened on Honda, but doesn’t include the minivan. Many other people I talk to disable their cars’...

    NYLI here I had GEICO - they wanted $800 extra per year for switching to MY - I ended up switching to State Farm (I already had home policy). After bundling, I will pay same premium as I used to (for non-MY), with higher limits, compared to GEICO.

    Wow - my OD was 1/15 and my scheduled delivery is 2/24. I was waiting for cybertruck but I am about 500,000 in line. When MY price dropped, I got good offer on my 2022 Santa Fe PHEV and figured now is good time to get MY. Maybe will trade my minivan for the cybertruck when time comes

    There is no “deadline”. During March, the IRS will issue a statement regarding half of the credit. 3,750 is pretty much guaranteed, the other half is based on battery materials source. What the IRS does is anybody’s guess, they may put the rule into effect later in the year, or not put any...

    I imagine for folks in CA, a thorough cost comparison analysis may reveal that the Y is actually cheaper than any other gasoline vehicle in its class. Has anyone out there run any actual numbers? Here in NY, based on my driving and actual electricity prices, I expect my MY (after ev credits)...

    I would like to conduct some research (out of curiosity). For those who ordered after 1/19, what caused you to delay ordering soon after the 1/13 price decrease ?

    Porsche Boxter? You talking around 2,000 vehicles sold in the US per year? Can’t compare this to Tesla’s ~12,000 vehicles per WEEK in US. No other OEM deals with this level of information broadcasting at this production level. Also, for other OEM, you communicate with a middleman (dealer)...

    Guys, guys, and gals….we all getting our Teslas, let’s not forget. Whether a day more or a day less, really makes no difference. You obviously need to be super thankful in life if you can put this much energy into complaining about this problem. Some of us are going through real stuff which...

    Is it worth purchasing a MYP now, even with the old cameras?

    1 reason is gas prices are not as bad in NY. And state incentives on Teslas are only $500. (NY has a $40k price cap on its $2k incentive). Another possible reason is that majority of Long Island is red. I hate to talk politics, but have to recognize that republicans for some reason love to...

    Is it worth purchasing a MYP now, even with the old cameras?

    From reading so many similar questions, It appears there are many folks on the fence right now. As they get off the fence, wait times will increase, and prices will probably go up. I have been waiting 2 years for “the right time to buy” I ordered 1/14 with EDD end of Feb. First Tesla on my...

    Will current model Ys be able to use future 4680 packs?

    Nothing has been said about that compatibility. Tesla has an amazing engineering team. They have resolved problems much more complicated than this.

    Are non-4860 model Y being built with the giga-press construction approach?

    This is not accurate. Elon mentioned a few earnings calls ago that Austin was ready to produce rear and front castings with 2170 packs. Ever watch Joe Tegtmeyer’s YouTube drone videos of Austin factory? some of his videos show MY “body-in-whites” (the assembled frames) kept outside the...

    Parking sensors. Please help

    Would a bird’s eye view of your MY, displayed on the screen, showing everything around the car, like other OEMs have, alleviate your concerns? Why is this so hard for Tesla to get done already, I don’t get it!

    Should you wait for 2023 Tesla Model Y Long Range with 4680 Battery or by Tesla now? [Jan 2023]

    I wanted 4680s, but jumped on the price drop and ordered on 1/14. 4680s have many manufacturing/cost benefits to Tesla. But benefits to the consumers are unknown at this time. Should you wait for a product that has unknown benefits to you? Or start enjoying your Y… ASAP? If the latest...
