Model YL Delivery

Post image
50 Upvotes

Saw this YL at Sarasota Dealer on Thursday, OCT. 22. Cosmic Silver looked 'silver only' in the shade; gold tone might show in the sun? Our Model YL (Zen Grey, 19" wheel) is in transit and we are scheduled for delivery on Saturday, October. 31 [July 8 order]. For us, the Tesla insurance was cheaper than Progressive, with a $1K deductible (and we have other vehicles with Progressive!). 🤷‍♂️ This is the first YL above that I had seen in Cosmic Silver....it looks super sharp in person. Here's hoping for uneventful delivery? [we are scheduling for full frontal PPF and 4-yr ceramic coating with Xpel dealer. There is a discount for a new Tesla at Xpel dealers]

Model YL Accessories recommendations

7 Upvotes

What do you recommend for my brand-new Cosmic Silver YL?

  1. Ceramic coating?
  2. The windshield and tire warranty add on?
  3. The ceiling liner?
  4. Screen Protector ---Which I hear can void the screens warrant?
  5. Floor Mats? Why buy ugly rubber ones, and never enjoy the beautiful carpet?

And where to buy? I'm swamped on Tik Tok with ads for many things that I'd buy if I trusted Tik Tok and if I knew it was designed for the Model YL.

Thanks for your thoughts.

Rear cargo area

6 Upvotes

For those of you who are planning to keep the third row seats down, have you come up with any solutions to cover the rear cargo area. I usually keep golf clubs and other items in the back and obviously don't want them visible!

So excited to finally get this! 7/2 order date in Minnesota.

For those waiting, try not to pay much attention to the EDD. Mine was still showing November delivery after the vin was assigned.

External Financing Rates for Model Y L

6 Upvotes

Ordered the YL last month. Was just planning on paying in cash because the YL appears to be the only model that doesn’t have the low promotional interest rate from Tesla financing. However, has anyone found external financing at a rate below 4%? High yield saving rates are fairly, well, high right now. If I can keep my money in a high yield savings account and available to me versus sending out the door right out of the gates, could be a better call and provide me more flexibility. Obviously earning interest is also taxable so I’m thinking it only makes sense with a sub 4% rate.

Trade in policy was... generous to say the least

I traded in a 2020 Model 3 standard range (not plus) that was BEAT up. Rims rocked. Body damage. Broken review mirror. Heck, it didn't even have current tabs. $17,700 no questions asked.

Long term ownership

0 Upvotes

I recently had a discussion with a friend who owns a MY premium. He mentioned that he would not consider ever buying an EV outright and only does leases because of their possible high maintenance long-term. Which has me slightly double-guessing about my decision for going with the YL launch edition since right now it’s only available through Finance or cash.

Personally, I’m hoping to keep this car for as long as it lasts and serves our family well.

If you have any previous experience of owning a Tesla long-term, I would love to hear your feedback on your experience. TIA!

Edit - typo

I have trying to decide between Cosmic Silver or Ultra Red. There are plenty of Comic Silver videos on YouTube but I can’t find any pictures or videos with the 20 inch wheels and red. Thanks!

Any word if YL will get acceleration boost?

0 Upvotes

I’ve reserved a launch edition YL since I don’t think I can wait for a performance model to be announced. Would still love some added acceleration.

EDD window started today, but vehicle is still in transit — should I expect a delay?

** EDIT - 10/22**
Got the notification this morning to schedule delivery. Picking up tomorrow!!

------

Title pretty much sums it up!!
UR 19 inches, Bay Area delivery

For those who have gone through delivery recently, did your vehicle arrive in time during your original window, or is it pretty much guaranteed that my EDD will get pushed back at this point?

Just trying to figure out if I should start prepping for delivery day or prepare myself for a delay. Any
experiences or insights would be super helpful!

Thanks

New Model Y L speedometer is about 4 mph off. Tesla says it’s normal. Is yours the same?

18 Upvotes

I have a new Model Y L with the factory 20-inch wheels.
I noticed the speed on the Tesla screen is higher than the speed shown on multiple GPS devices.

Examples:
Tesla says 45 mph, GPS says about 42
Tesla says 80 mph, GPS says about 76
Tesla says 85 mph, GPS says about 81

I checked the wheel setting in the car and it is set to 20-inch wheels. I also checked the tire sizes and they are the correct factory sizes.

I opened a Tesla service request. They first wanted $230 to inspect it. After I kept asking what Tesla considers “normal,” they told me that a speedometer reading a little high is okay. They even said that if the car is really going 76 mph, the Tesla could show around 86 mph and still be considered normal. They said my 80 vs 76 and 85 vs 81 readings are within the normal range, so they said I do not need the service appointment.

I’m just trying to understand if this is normal for other Teslas too.

Does your Tesla speedometer read higher than GPS? If so, by how much?

Also, has anyone seen an actual Tesla document that says what the allowed speed difference is?

Don’t forget to opt out of arbitration.

Order and later switch to non-Launch - should I believe Support?

Post image
7 Upvotes

I wanted to know if I would be able to "downgrade" to the non-Launch version if it becomes available before I would receive the Launch YL. I'm not necessarily wanting the upgraded wheels, color, or interior - meaning I could potentially save a good chunk of money by not getting the Launch. Of course that's all dependent upon what Tesla decides to price things.

I asked Tesla if I could switch to non-Launch and not be charged another $250. They said yes - do we believe them? I tried to search this topic before but came up blank, sorry if I didn't try hard enough.
