How Early is too Early to get the Y

[Wennfred]

Does anyone know if the Model Y will come with a tow hitch? Or do we still have to buy the after market ones?

I would say no one knows for sure. But there are many rumors about it having a hitch option similar to the European model 3. I do not see that option on the order page though.

Just ordered my LR AWD Performance Y! I will be replacing my 2013 Model S 85, and I'm the original owner with 86,000 miles on it now. I debated waiting for a new S, but no new interior has appeared yet. I will definitely miss having a sunroof, but the Y should be fun for a change. We do have the 3 Performance, which is great. I'm not at all concerned about getting a Tesla early model. We got our first S in January of '13. There were very minor issues that were dealt with quickly. No big deal at all.

I remember watching the original Model S reveal and checking the forum every day to checkout feedback from early owners. Thank you very much for being an early supporter since without your support Tesla wouldn't have become what it is today.

I also just ordered the LR AWD Performance Y. With sightings becoming more frequent I figured it was time to get in line.

I have a low RN# cybertruck tri-motor reservation, but may drop it down to a dual motor since I am doing the performance model of the Y.

These would be my first teslas, looking forward to them.

I am sure this what’s been answered before, and frankly I am too lazy to look, but if you order the Y, does it lock in your price? If they decide to raise the price or lower it for whatever reason.

I think I almost have my wife convinced.

Ordered my MY AWD/LR back at the end of October.

 

[vjcinajr]

Ordered Black AWD LR FSD mid October.

 

[Maxstorz]

Ordered 7 seater
Will be in the 2nd or 3rd production batch so I‘m not concerned at all

Yes, it locks in your price.

Ordered. Replaces two cars that have both come off of lease. A model x (which we really really miss but want the plaid version) and a Chevy bolt (which we won’t miss at all).

if we can get away with our remaining “tall” car for our elderly parents then will compare the model y and model x plaid.

otherwise a model y because it’s taker and easier for elderly parents to enter.

If we didn’t have that constraint there is so much to choose from. In the coming years!

[HarryPooter]

Ordered pearl white performance, replacing VW Tiguan RLine

 

[scramies]

Have not placed the order, investing the money instead. Plan on LR/RWD. Hope to add this Y and replace wife's Cayenne, she's not quite onboard yet but were hoping.

 

[raynishimiya]

I have a 3. My wife has a Leaf lease that will be replaced by a RWD Y

 

[Bill_woolf]

ordered AWD 5 seat, will replace 2015 Lexus RX450h (about 50k miles)

 

[mrbaseball47]

I keep going back and forth between a M3 and a MY. Both are good choices. Either will be replacing a 2011 Lexus IS250 F Sport which i truly love.

The Y is so similar to the 3 that I think early production risks are minimal to both Tesla and to customers.

Ordered my Model Y LR AWD earlier this week. Totally agree with the fact that they got this down now. Even when there were issues, they offered owners many options. With cutting edge tech like this, I'm expecting some bumps along the road. What I find fascinating is that they keep pushing themselves to create change and improve what appears to be everyday.

BTW Since you just ordered it, it's highly unlikely you'll get anything approaching an early build unit.
