    Rim protector

    At this point, I just use a fine sandpaper brick and a matching wheel paint off Amazon. I always seem to scrape my rear passenger side wheel-twice in 7 months...

    Allowing other brands access to Tesla super chargers

    I think I know why Tesla is doing this and it's probably already discussed in another thread. The single largest hurdle for prospective EV buyers is range anxiety and lack of charging infrastructure. If tesla chargers are opened up to everyone, it creates (1) more money for tesla to build more...

    Allowing other brands access to Tesla super chargers

    The articles I've read are clear that Tesla makes no money directly from these agreements with other brands. I've wondered about that. Does Tesla charge more for non-Tesla owners to charge at a SC?

    Allowing other brands access to Tesla super chargers

    How will allowing other brands access to Tesla superchargers be beneficial for current Tesla owners? I'm told Tesla makes no additional revenue from opening up their SC network. I'm guessing it may provide some funding to open up new SCs but it will definitely start clogging up SCs with a...

    2023 model y performance factory ppf

    The prices for PPF here in SoCal is, IMHO, a rip-off. There is no reason outside of labor for the price to be that high. But, hey, capitalism works...

    Rim protector

    I'm at the point of just trying to be extra careful when parking and use light sandbrick with gray touchup paint to cover up the wheel scrapes. That's what I did with my first scrape and you don't notice it unless you're looking carefully.

    Rim protector

    Got a refund from Magbak; guess their new Rim protectors are delayed.

    Taptes Model Y retractable sunshade?

    So after using the Otrifowd sunshade for a few days, it works well: it opens up and closes tightly. But, most importantly, it keeps the inside cool when it's really sunny outside. I don't hear any loose noises. It still looks a bit ghetto but I think this is one of the best and cheapest...

    Taptes Model Y retractable sunshade?

    I got the Otrifowd version for around $250 and installed it. The fit of the pieces could be better, a lot better as there are annoying gaps. The install took me around 45 minutes mostly because the instructions were a little vague. Also, the final screw that's needed to attach the shade to a...

    That was a good read! I agree 100%!

    Ooh, that's bad. I would complain about that.

    Just completed 10 day Road Trip with 2023 Model Y RWD - Mixed feelings

    I think the ride/suspension is pretty decent; the wide performance tires are solid. I kept the steering to Normal as Sport was way too stiff. The front hood is really light and thin; I think Tesla needs to strengthen it as it dings really easily. The passemger airbag seat sensor is...

    Is there any way to buff out the glass scratches on the rear window?

    My 2023 MYP rear window has scratches (a few 3" scratch lines). I just noticed them on my rear windshield. I think it's from my towel that I used to wipe off car wash water or my car cover is scratching it. Really annoying. Is there any way to buff out the glass scratches?

    Just completed 10 day Road Trip with 2023 Model Y RWD - Mixed feelings

    Just got a '23 MYP (CA-Fremont) and it's been fine so far at 600 miles: no rattles or squeeks and the fit of the vehicle is fine. The only issue I have is a driver side window that doesn't always auto-close and wheel rash. My MYP is not perfect but I am very satisfied so far: it's exceeded...

    (moderator edit) People, if you don't like the price, just move on. Seller is an adult and will adjust accordingly. Just saying. OP: GLWS.

    Hello from SoCal

    Ordered on 6/14 and picked up on 6/16 - I kid you not; I was shocked. 2023 White on White MYP. Already scraped my right rear wheel but oh, well... Car is amazing; it's like a disguised M3...😄
