    Drove the Highland Yesterday.

    Yeah I had pretty much the same experience. I like the turn signal buttons, didn’t have any trouble with them.

    Model 3 Highland Performance/Plaid Speculation

    Awesome rendering. Any word on the interior other than the seats? I’m curious to know if they replace the cloth on the dashboard with something more premium.

    Model 3 Highland Performance/Plaid Speculation

    1. I hope they call it Plaid and create a sub-brand of sorts. 2. Loving the way it’s looking so far. 3. I’ve driven the S and I just drove a 3 Highland. I actually prefer the stalkless design. The steering wheel buttons are great. Much sleeker and after 30 mins they become second nature...

    Just test drove a Model Y

    LOL same.

    2022.44.25

    I wonder what the difference is here…maybe related to various processors and the latest cars don’t buffer. You wouldn’t think it would be related to that though. The app works great on mine, but it does buffer (maybe 1.5 seconds) each song.

    Holiday update? what can we expect?

    I see. I just leave mine in auto and never adjust fan speed so I wouldn’t have noticed this. I would argue that auto seat heaters being part of the auto setting makes some sense, as they're part over the overall climate, and I think most would prefer it rather than having individual settings...

    Holiday update? what can we expect?

    If you set heated seats to off while leaving the climate control on auto, do those settings not save? You have to cycle through to turn it off every time you enter the car? I’ve never tried turning them off so not sure. Imo, the auto heated seats are so conservative I don’t even notice them. I...

    Why tesla's user interface is so plain?

    Everything about Tesla design is minimalist. It may seem spartan but it ages much better.

    Model Y Not Worth the Price Now [Nov 2022]

    Well, thanks for sharing your opinion. I’m a tech-forward millennial that used CarPlay for years, buy and love all the latest tech, and have a career in tech, yet I much prefer the native Tesla experience to CarPlay. I pay the $10/month for premium connectivity and I don’t care because it’s...

    Model Y Not Worth the Price Now [Nov 2022]

    This sounds like my Land Rover Velar. I guarantee the Taycan system is a dream compared to the absolute trash system in that though. It barely worked for half the time I owned the car...literally unusable. I would connect my phone and just hope for the best, but it would eventually disconnect...

    Model Y Not Worth the Price Now [Nov 2022]

    Valid points. I also use Apple Music, and it not being integrated kinda sucks, but I don't mind the bluetooth.

    Model Y Not Worth the Price Now [Nov 2022]

    As someone that likes CarPlay and used it exclusively in my previous vehicle with no issues...I cannot figure out why so many here want it so bad. The Tesla UI is excellent. It's fast, I've never had a glitch, it 's perfectly optimized for the huge screen, it's easy to navigate, it uses Google...

    Model Y Not Worth the Price Now [Nov 2022]

    In a vacuum, yes, it's overpriced. However, in the current market it's not. I can't think of anything else I'd want for the same price point. Not really intrigued by the Ioniq/EV6 and the GV60 is ugly. The Mach-E is cool but also not really my vibe. The Audis do nothing for me. The i4 M50 is...

    New "wraparound" dash door panels for the US Model Y's - retrofit to existing cars?

    This is significantly less expensive than I would've guessed. Cool upgrade. Looking forward to seeing a couple of these swaps completed.

    New update 2021.44.25 adds customizable app launcher like Model S refresh plus other major upgrades to system.

    It may still go black at night if you leave it on auto....haven't tested. We shall see.

    New update 2021.44.25 adds customizable app launcher like Model S refresh plus other major upgrades to system.

    Not entirely sure to be honest. It’s more gray than black. I feel like the old night mode was darker/black. Here’s a pic. This lighter version feels more useable during the day...otherwise not much difference.

    New update 2021.44.25 adds customizable app launcher like Model S refresh plus other major upgrades to system.

    I got it. Went for a drive this morning and my initial 30 min impression is that it’s good. I like the new UI; it feels a hint more refined (except the icons which are a matter of taste). The climate control was easy to use. Literally just swipe up from the bottom of the screen like an iPad and...

    2021 Holiday Firmware Release - Predictions and Impressions (after release)

    Obviously personal opinion, and you have significantly more experience in the field than I, but I have no big issues with it. Almost everything is extremely simple to access and laid out logically for me. My previous car (2018 Land Rover) was my first with primarily touchscreen based controls...

    New update 2021.44.25 adds customizable app launcher like Model S refresh plus other major upgrades to system.

    Oh wow, interesting. Mine have always come on when needed without fail. Guess I'm lucky.

    New update 2021.44.25 adds customizable app launcher like Model S refresh plus other major upgrades to system.

    Genuinely curious what the hoopla is regarding wipers and headlights. I’ve left mine in auto since day one and have never manually turned them on/off. If I want to manually trigger them to clean the windshield I use the stalk. They come on automatically when needed, how is a button baked into...

    Had no idea this was happening. Nice surprise!

    Model Y Auto Pilot Nearly Unusable

    Hmm this is interesting. I’ve had my car over a year, and I’ve driven it across the country twice (west to east and Miami to New England) almost exclusively on autopilot already. I can count on one hand the amount of time my car has phantom braked, and most of those were early on. With software...

    Yeah. It’s 3M Satin Battleship Gray. I’ll make an album and post more when I get some time to take better shots.

    Picture of your Model Y - Right Now!

    Thanks. I originally ordered the RPM carbon fiber caps, but at the time they were back ordered. They didn’t ship in time, so I just had the shop wrap the mirrors in black. I think I will revisit and put the RPM caps on at some point. Curious to see how you end up liking yours.

    Picture of your Model Y - Right Now!

    😂 I’ve been living in Palm Beach, FL for the last 7 months and Dallas for a while before that. Moving back to Boston this week though. I drove the Y from Dallas to Palm Beach, and I’m driving it again up to Boston…so it’ll have seen a good amount of the country in its short life.

    New Model Y Tail lights?

    People are so entitled. lol

    New Model Y Tail lights?

    I have the old ones (late July build) but the fit is pretty dang good. Not nearly as bad as a lot of the ones I’ve seen online. Seems like they’ve been getting better for a while.

    Are Teslas "Square"?

    My hatch is perfectly aligned and gaps are perfect.As are my doors.

    Texas Model Ys

    Hmm, I haven’t noticed any glare from mine yet and it’s been very sunny here. I’m sure it’s there; I guess just not something that bothers me.

    Another rejected model Y

    That’s because, in China, Buick is a vastly more popular brand than Chevrolet with a much larger distribution network. They literally sell twice as many Buicks as they do Chevys so it makes sense to market them as such. In North America, the opposite is true. The Chevrolet brand has much broader...

    Texas Model Ys

    My car (vin 328xx) is essentially flawless. I didn't see any glaring paint defects, the gaps are very tight, the taillights are aligned, backseats are aligned. It was in better shape than my previous new car delivery (Range Rover). I'll go take some nice pictures tomorrow (to the best of my...

    Texas Model Ys

    I wouldn’t be too worried. Worst case, reject delivery and wait for another vin. Doesn’t hurt to go look at it.

    Stopped by Tesla today...wow...

    Mine was able to tell me when the car shipped, when it was on a truck, etc....but unable to provide arrival info until it actually arrived.

    Model Y Sound insulation

    It’s true, and yes it can be retrofitted (for free I believe).

    Texas Model Ys

    I wonder if they’re being more proactive about correcting issues before delivery lately. Like I said before, mine arrived with a scraped plastic rear diffuser and they absolutely would not let me take delivery until it’s fixed “to Tesla standards.” We all know they were delivering cars with...

    PSA Frunk Dents Super Easy

    I had 2 981s, the latest being a 2015 Cayman, and I never had any trouble with the frunk. I used it all the time. I’m curious to see how the Teslas feel in comparison. I prefer it for groceries, but if the MY frunk lid is THAT fragile I won’t.
