I am on my second yoke. I had it in my LR and swapped it out for a Hansshow wheel. Then my son wanted it so back went on the yoke until I had the factory wheel swapped in once it became available and used it for just a few days before, I parted with my LR.
The LR found a new home and a Plaid found a new home with me. It had a yoke and then my son gave me back the Hansshow wheel and I put it in the Plaid.
I gave the yoke (aka yolk) a chance. It is not all that it's cracked up to be. I had got used to it, sort of like being a hostage and identifying with my captor. Let's just call it by its real name; Stockholm syndrome. The only place I really liked it was on the highway.
I found the Hansshow wheel is far better than either for me. It is a bit more open on top than the factory wheel and real Napa leather and a better form. Actually, a nice wheel to use. In emergency or spirited driving situations, either wheel is far superior to the yoke. I drive a lot in dense city traffic and tight and the yoke is definitely not the right tool for the job.
The best thing I can say about the yoke is it looks unique. So does a car missing a wheel. If Tesla had done a better job of implementing it, I'd be all for it. Any time I have to turn the yoke more than about 90 degrees in either direction, you are in an area where it is worse than a wheel for me. IF I could have kept all hand movements to steer the car in a +/- 90 degree range of dead center, I'd want one in my 3.
If the S is not your only car, it is even worse. The muscle memory in the S is not the same as where you have a wheel. I am so glad I am back to a wheel again.
