take the $7500 delivery bonus and 10,000 free SuperCharger miles and don't look back.
it'll be fine.
I just took delivery of my model Y and was not surprised about the lack of Summon and Enhanced Summon but I wanted to check out exactly what sensors are installed in my car. Tesla are going back to using radar, which they had forsaken. Unlikely I have the new Radar - how would I check? They are trying to overcome some FSD problems with higher resolution cameras. My Model Y declares it is equipped with all hardware necessary for Full Self Driving, but that is a meaningless declaration as what that takes has been a changing specification. Is there a way to check if I have some high resolution cameras. I'd guess I have no ultrasonic sensors as they were ditched awhile back - how would I check?

If your car has several 1" circular disks across the front and rear bumpers then the cars has USS. I don't know how to determine if it has high def cameras or RADAR.

Your Model Y is unlikely to have radar.
You can physically check behind the front bumper fascia, and also you will see sticker under the frunk tub - Without Radar - see sample.
Our garage only has a few inches to spare front and back so we relay on the parking sensors every time

You can rely on technology for assistance. But don't limit yourself to new tech
simple solution, there are many like it. the mat stays in place, since the car tire is on it before getting to the stop. inexpensive. nothing dangling from ceilings.

I've used a similar set of mats for many years and never had that issue. biggest issue is .... there is no issue.I thought about one of these but I have a feeling i would trip on it
PS I hate stuff dangling overhead.
I read reports that that video could have been fake. They stated it was not on the latest version. I guess we have to wait and see what happens. It would be great if it was true but online does not mean it is..
Here is the link to the article.

A 2018? Wouldn't it have radar? Regardless, many of us have 2023 models with no USS and the latest software. This is the combination that matters.
Radar has been disabled in all model 3s and Ys, whether they have the radar module or not. Source = me and my own 2018 model 3 Performance that got the holiday upgrade, with a "tesla vision" message.
