    Snow tires for 2022 Model Y

    Chill mode, low regen, no autopilot/adaptive cruise control, use seat heaters to offload hvac, preheat if your car has been out overnight (watch for windows that are frozen stuck and don’t drop when opening the doors, make sure not to close your door if so), delay charging to near departure time...

    Snow tires for 2022 Model Y

    Just got Vredestein Wintrac Pros from Tire Rack along with MSW 27 wheels. Performance seems great so far (just one winter storm) and can’t beat Tire Rack’s service, I received the wheel/tire/tpms combo in two days to my front door.

    Bought Tesla Model Y from Inventory

    What legacy automaker has anything close to what Tesla is doing with FSD? Name one that even recognizes stop signs/lights and can navigate an intersection. I won’t hold my breath waiting.

    How to quickly defrost windshield while driving?

    For some reason the Model Y I just received only has the blue a/c option. Am I missing something? My Model 3 behaves exactly as you describe with the second push turning the icon red and working much quicker.

    Ioniq 5 vs Model Y

    Model Y wins No it doesn’t. It isn’t reasonable to compare ideal for one vehicle versus one person’s “real world” for another. I’ll point to Ioniq 5 owners that have reduced real world range as a counterpoint. The 2022 dual motor Model Y is EPA rated at 280 wh/mi and the dual motor Ioniq 5 is...

    Ioniq 5 vs Model Y

    You’re conflating the supply voltage for charging with the cell voltage. 800V doesn’t produce less heat, it just allows the conductor size to be reduced. The cells generate the heat that must be managed when charging, and operate at much lower voltage (2.5-4.2 volt I believe for a 21700 cell)...

    Ioniq 5 vs Model Y

    No, the 800V architecture only allows conductors to be reduced in size. The cells themselves and their chemistry limit charge rate. A larger cell, which Hyundai is using, also makes heat dissipation more of a problem. I share the concern that we will see more pronounced battery degradation with...

    Washington State Waiting Room

    I had heard deliveries were moving up but that’s a huge jump. Are we able to delay deliveries to the start of the original EDD window? Someone mentioned that possibility somewhere

    Made in Austin Model Y LR: First Impressions

    The wheel is sensing torque, not pressure in some other way. Rest one hand on the wheel or apply light torque. Not ideal but cover the accelerator with your foot. If it phantom brakes, push the accelerator to reduce the speed impact. Not sure about an issue with driving in the center of the...

    Can HomeLink be used in a completely manual mode?

    Yes, I use it manually. As I approach my driveway the icon appears in the lower left of the screen and acts just like a manual garage door opener, no timer as described above. Similarly, when I leave the button is available in the same location.

    Anyone using the Seasucker Mini Bomber bike rack on their Model 3?

    To add to the list of those with cracked glass, I had the Rockbros 3 bike rack with only one bike and it caused my roof to crack. I was really hoping the dispersed weight of the fork across a theee bike rack would be sufficient but surprising the crack formed under one of the front suction cups...

    M3 Front Plate in Seattle Area

    Eastsider here, no front plate since mid 2018 and no tickets. Hope I didn’t just jinx myself but I as well see a ton of vehicles without a front plate.

    Supercharger - Helena, MT

    Checked in on it over the thanksgiving holiday, there is now one of those green transformers and lots of snow on the ground. Would love if this was working by Christmas but i don’t feel very confident it will be.

    Advice moving to Seattle (East-side)

    I think it’s hard to go wrong with Bellevue, Kirkland, or Redmond. Bothell and Woodinville are nice but are even more suburban and likely harder to get into and out of at rush hour. I recommend checking them out and seeing which has a feel that best fits your desires.

    Supercharger - Ellensburg, WA

    I think I've found the new Ellensburg supercharger location! Didn't snap any photos, which I now regret, but it appears as though the Taco Bell just down the street from the existing Ellensburg SC is having spaces near the entrance converted over. You can currently see where it appears the...

    Cracked Main Screen = Bad Time

    Are you paying for the replacement screen out of pocket or is Tesla replacing it for free? I'm very curious what the replacement cost is.
