Had “at home service” today! Super good experience and it turned out to be a SIM card had failed (quit working) in the car. It took the tech about 5 minutes to change it out. It was located below the glove box and all is good now! I see some talk about service and I have to say my...

Scheduled at home service for Monday. 👍

Latest update did not correct the issue.

Yep, just got the notice of the new update. So we will see if it corrects itself tonight when it updates at 10pm! 🤞

Trying to find out if this is still the latest software update for our MYP. 2023.44.30.8 Since that install the car has had “NO CONNECTIVITY”. Voice commands do not work, Sentry mode does not via app and the climate control does not work via app. App does not load on either of our phones...

Absolutely not. I had some Tesla stock and was adding more every week. Took delivery of my first one back in May (MYP). The night we took delivery, I put about 80-90% of our retirement in Tesla. Bought some calls and shares. Decided that when the cybertruck came out. I would replace my 🦕...

Just add me to the back of the line!

I said I was waiting for Tsla 300. But they lured me in with the first one off the assembly line! 🤪

I enjoy getting the 🦕 out on occasion to rotate the tires and listen to the supercharger whine a little. Then stick it back in the garage…🥴 I have thought about selling to use the money to invest but just haven’t done it.

Saw a new high score (for us) on the screen today! 106 degrees. My phone was showing 104. We had just finished dinner and got in to a car that was 70 degrees inside! I hope those dinosaurs survive this heatwave. It is awesome not to have to idle an ICE just to run the AC! It is definitely...

I would suggest try researching VIN’s around your VIN number. For instance if you get a VIN sequence of 79XXXX, try to see if people who ordered the within the same timeframe are getting VIN’s in same 79XXXX range. If you get a VIN of 77XXXX and people who ordered around you are getting 79XXXX...

Everyone is different as to the comfort level of paying for a car before seeing/inspecting it. We chose to pay in full before we took delivery. Figured Tesla is a multi billion dollar company and would either deliver us a car that was to our liking or we would get a different vehicle at a...

Almost an inch and half taller than the factory front tire…

Fully aware of factory MYP sizes. That is why I posted the comparison between the 275/35/21 and the 265/50/19. According to the previous wheel pic he is running that on the front as well. Just seems like a big (tall) tire to be running on the front. Almost an inch taller than the factory...

Any chance you could post a pic from the front and back to see wheel/tire fitment? That front tire looks pretty big in the wheel well. Does it rub (even at full lock)?

Even beyond that. Say even 10 years ago when most people in retirement centers were still driving. They weren’t thinking about a car being able to drive itself to the point it could stop, take off and make a curve without needing input from the driver. Now all of a sudden they get to...

I was not directly referring to your aunt. It was adding to the list of funny comments that people say about Teslas, in general. I mentioned “hater” because the list of comments could be considered a generalization of hater comments. It had nothing to do with your aunt. I truly enjoy...

Another thing I like to do when giving the hater crowd a ride. Before I give them a good acceleration feel. I usually go about 1/4 throttle and look over like “oh that was all of it! What did you think?”… I don’t say a word I just look to see if they have any reaction. Most of the time they...

We have heard about every “hater myth” out there already! Battery fires. Battery explodes. Shock when driving in water. Electrocution when it rains. More likely to get hit by lightning. Car will accelerate out of control on its own. Brakes won’t work when battery is to low. Cars get hit by...

Anyone order a MYP back as far as January not get their car yet? Having a discussion with some people on the Tesla Model Y Facebook group that said they ordered cars in late January. Got VINS in mid April, got the financing done, started making payments but haven’t got their cars yet...

Here are the price changes…

Probably not very efficient but I live by the idea, “how much fun can I have this time”, when I get in the car! 🤣

I only suggested because we went to get our tags (TX). I pulled the inspection paperwork out of the glovebox and there was a second temporary tag that was good for another 30 days. We didn’t need them but it was nice to see that someone had thought ahead just in case we did not get the...

Look in the glove box and see if you have another 30 day temporary tag in there…

Automatically handled by Tesla. After we purchased they had the 1st price decrease. So we decided to pay to lock in the lower price, just in case. Then a few days later they lowered the price a second time. That left a balance on our Tesla (app) account of -$3000 when we took delivery. We...

We ordered 4/4 and we paid in full before the last (2 price decreases while on order) price drop. So we had a -$3000 balance when we took delivery on 5/2. So anyway the credit cleared our bank today!

Just updating for those early April orders. We got our reimbursement deposited back in the bank today for the last price drop! 👍 Really impressed with how Tesla handled everything on our order!

Switch to MYP…..😜…speed up the process and the ride? 🤷‍♂️

Definitely would agree! So far it has been pretty fun! Really enjoy taking people who have never been in a Tesla, for a ride! Either they are super intrigued by the technology or they are die hard haters! Both are fun to share the experience with. I have to say I almost enjoy taking the...

We have noticed the more we use the autopilot the better it gets. I guess it shouldn’t be surprising but it seems like it is having fewer hard braking encounters as we use it. I tend to use the autopilot a lot now that I see it is improving over time. When we got the car I saw it as a feature...

Michelin all season. I believe someone posted it depends on the zip code for delivery. Florida, California, Nevada and Arizona got summer tires (Pirelli’s) while most areas got Michelin’s.

We ended up sticking the opener in the door pocket with Velcro command strip. It is tucked in the back corner and super handy to open/close the garage door. To us, we decided it didn’t matter if we pushed the remote button or a button on the car screen. So saved ourselves $350 and used the...

There were quite a few of us in April that ordered Blue…sorry to create the shortage! 😜 For those with cars on order. It is well worth the wait! We have really enjoyed it so far! Still a ton to learn but so far it is a blast to drive! Really enjoy people asking about it and those who are...

After we made that curve and he had more questions about how the car could read its surroundings. We went to a road that he travels quite often to see what it would do somewhere he was familiar with. He was shocked that it had zero issues navigating it “as smooth as anyone he had every ridden...

When I mentioned around a corner…this is one of the streets we took. It has a pretty good curve and I let autopilot handle it. Of course I was never far off the wheel but just enough he could tell I had no input on what the car was doing.

Went to visit my in-laws at their retirement community today for Mother’s Day. My father in-law has a friend there that heard we bought an EV. He was curious as he has only seen stories about them on TV. I told him to come by after he finished lunch and I would take him for a ride. Anyway we...

Look back in the April orders thread and you will see where we had been discussing the Texas and Fremont VINs around the 17-20th of April. I bet your VIN falls in line with the time of that discussion.

The 111XXX vins are April 2023 builds from the Texas gigafactory. So I would doubt that it had time to be rejected unless it was sitting at the SC where you are taking delivery.

Apparently not for 2023 Model Y

Yes…

Homelink isn’t available for the 2023 Model Y apparently? 🥴

Thanks that is what I was wondering. So if we want Homelink we just open a service request on the app?

Does anyone know if the Tesla SC’s will install the Homelink and a power frunk kit? We are about 120 miles from the closest SC and I highly doubt any local shops would be willing to tackle the install. So curious if anyone has used a SC?

I saw that….posted at the same time..🤣 I kept waiting since we ordered about the same time…🤣

Did we miss your delivery pics? I kept waiting for the report and pics…😜🤣 but didn’t see it anywhere? 🍿

Burned a few amps this morning to take a couple of pics….🤣

If you have a security app (Vivint) on your phone to operate the garage doors. Is it possible to use the phones Vivint app on the cars touch screen to do the same thing without getting a homelink?

Yep, we got several updates at like 2-3am on Saturday or Sunday morning. So likely it is a computer automated process!

Here is what about 10% additional range?
