    Used Model S vs New Model Y

    I'll give my impressions since I sold my 15 Model S P85D and now own a 23 Model Y long range. Some things won't matter if you decide on a newer MS. I absolutely loved my Model S but I decided to sell it earlier this year because the extended warranty was expired and the battery warranty was...

    Used Model S vs New Model Y

    Went from a model S to a Y earlier this year. I LOVED my S, but the old battery tech, being out of warranty and piece of mind made it a no brainer to move on. I have to say my model S held it's value unbelievably well. Took me some time to get used to my Y but glad I moved on.

    Why are the seats sideways on the display?

    My old MS had it the way your talking about. Only thing I can think is that since my old MS had the large portrait screen as opposed to large landscape screen. Do you know if the new MS with the landscape screens has the layout the same?

    Would you buy a black car again?

    Yes, would go black again. Would not get the white dash though. The glare on the two front windows is REALLY bad.

    Sentry Mode Live Camera View and Keyfob (DO NOT want to use phone as key)

    Thank you. I was able to successfully add the phone as a key and then I was able to revoke Tesla's app permission for "nearby devices". It worked perfectly. The only issue is this notification in the Tesla app that says, "Phone key disabled". But I can deal with that.

    Mine came separately from Tesla when I bought first one years ago. Not sure if the process is the same.

    Sentry Mode Live Camera View and Keyfob (DO NOT want to use phone as key)

    A couple more questions, if I revoke the Android phone's "nearby devices permission" will the car still be able to receive texts and phone calls from that phone? Second, do I have to re-pair the phone to the car? Lastly, do I set the phone as a key before or after revoking the nearby devices...

    Sentry Mode Live Camera View and Keyfob (DO NOT want to use phone as key)

    I realize this is an old thread, but I think I want to do the very thing you're talking about here. Just to confirm, I don't want to use my android phone as a "phone key" for the car and not a huge fan of the key card. I went ahead and bought a fob that arrives tomorrow. I do want to be able to...

    New York/New Jersey Waiting Room

    Picked it up today at the Paramus location. They tried to tell me that I can inspect the outside of the car no problem, but I was not allowed to inspect the inside without giving them the check and accepting delivery. I told them that wasn't happening and threatened to walk away. I was then...

    Looking for feedback regarding service

    I'm picking up my MYLR on Monday, but I had a 2015 MS until a couple weeks ago. I've had many interactions with the service center nearest me and another not so close. I never had a problem with them. Quite the opposite, my experiences has been very positive. Maybe I'm just lucky, I don't know.

    HV Battery Died with 7 miles range left showing on Range display

    That response from Tesla is very disappointing. I am by no means an expert on any of this like wk057, so I would believe what he says. I had a 2015 P85D until recently and had the car below 10% a number of times. Most times not by choice as there were very few superchargers in the Northeast...

    I think its mostly Tesla that causes the delay. I hope they've gotten better. When I bought my MS in 2018 it took almost four months before I got my plates!

    Should I sell my Model S for a used Model X?

    Honestly, I love the car. Best car I've owned so far. What scares me is the fact that the warranty is about to end and in the last couple months the car has had a couple big ticket issues. In April the car shutdown and the rear drive unit was replaced. This past Sunday the car shutdown again and...
