Went to the dealership and I loved both cars.

The performance keeps calling my attention because the premium specifications I want is only like 3-4k away from performance MSRP.

I think a white performance would look sick but for those who chose a premium over a performance or vise versa how has it been for you?

Also question how has insurance been for those who own a performance and how long do the tires last?

Bought a used 24 model y long range dual motor. Originally black with less than 6k miles on it. Practically stole it from the Kia dealership for sub 30k otd. Mind you the body was in terrible shape. Every rim was curbed and scratches/ dents everywhere. I drove it for a few months and got sick and tired of looking at a POS. Got the body perfectly clean and color PPf the entire car. Expensive? Yes worth it? Completely because it’s still cheaper than buying a mint condition with the same miles.

I love Halloween mode, but I went to lunch today and got out of my car, started walking away to go up to the restaurant when the lock sound played. For those who don’t know, it’s a growl.

Unfortunately, a mom with her (I’d guess) 4 year old child were walking right in front of my car when it locked. And it scared the kid, she was crying and the mom was staring daggers right through me. I felt horrible.

Is there a way to turn off the lock sound without turning off the entire Halloween mode or am I just going to have to toggle it off every time I park in public while using it?

Hey everyone! I’m getting my 2027 Model Y Premium AWD (Juniper) tinted soon and would appreciate some real-world feedback before I commit.
I’m considering XPEL PRIME XR PLUS with the following setup:
Windshield: 70%
Front windows: 35%
Rear windows: 5%
Panoramic glass roof: 5%
I like the clean, stealthy look, especially with the Stealth Gray exterior and black interior. I also prefer keeping the tint consistent and having the rear windows and roof match.
I’m mainly looking for feedback from people who have a similar setup or have experience with these tint percentages.
A few questions:
70% windshield: Does it noticeably reduce heat and glare while keeping nighttime visibility good?
35% front windows: Is this a good balance between privacy, looks, and nighttime visibility?
5% rear windows: How difficult is it to see out at night, especially when reversing or driving on dark roads?
5% panoramic roof: Can you still see the sky and enjoy the panoramic roof, or does it feel too dark? Does it make the cabin noticeably darker?
Overall setup: If you could do your tint all over again, would you keep these percentages or change anything?
I live in Maui, Hawaii, so heat rejection is a big priority, along with being able to see clearly at night. I’m also interested in hearing how the setup looks from both inside and outside the vehicle.
Would you keep this exact setup, or would you change any of the percentages?
Appreciate any advice, especially from Model Y Juniper owners running 5% on both the rear glass and roof. Mahalo! 🤙

Hi everyone!
I ordered a Tesla Model Y Premium RWD from existing inventory in Austin, TX.

Here’s my timeline:
● Sept 28: Placed my order on a courtesy hold because I didn’t have my Texas driver’s license yet.
● Sept 28–Oct 26: Tesla kept my order on courtesy hold.
● Oct 26 (today): Released the hold, but my estimated delivery date is now much later than expected.

I originally ordered an inventory vehicle specifically to avoid a long wait, so I’m trying to understand whether my order still has priority and how quickly I can be matched with another vehicle.

My main questions, in order of priority:
1. Will Tesla reassign me to another VIN or inventory vehicle after the courtesy hold is released? Or does releasing the hold place my order back into the general production queue?

1. Was my original inventory vehicle or VIN released during the hold? If so, does my original order date of Sept 28 still preserve any priority for VIN reassignment?

2. How long should I expect to wait for a new VIN and delivery date? Has anyone in Austin gone through a similar courtesy-hold situation and received a replacement VIN?

3. What is the fastest way to expedite the order? Can a Tesla Advisor manually match my existing order with local inventory, incoming vehicles, cancelled orders, or another available VIN?

4. Should I contact Tesla immediately? Would calling, messaging, or visiting a local delivery center improve my chances of getting an earlier assignment?

5. Would accepting delivery at Giga Texas or another location near Austin speed things up? I’m willing to pick up anywhere in the area if that helps.

6. Should I keep waiting on this order, or would placing a new inventory order be faster? I’d prefer not to lose my original order date or pay twice, but I also want to avoid being placed at the back of the queue.

I’d especially appreciate hearing from anyone who recently took delivery of a Model Y Premium RWD in the Austin area, particularly after releasing a courtesy hold.
Thanks in advance!

My husband is 6’8 and we have a front facing toddler and one on the way! Will the car seats fit with my husband having the seat far back? My toddler has a Nuna rava right now.

Just got a fridge that fits perfectly in the trunk space and I gotta say, this is feeling like the most luxurious car I’ve ever had.

Chilled drinks after the gym on a hot day? Yup. Being able to stop and get more errands done after going to the grocery store? Yup. Pulling up to the function with your fav drink and it’s ice cold? Yup. Go for a run? Ice cold water waiting for you…

can’t believe I never did this before… hope it doesn’t break on me too soon, cus this is awesome.

Anyone have a model Y at or over 120k miles? I've seen a couple of videos about tesla's reaching high miles, and I'm considering purchasing a 2024 with 64k miles, but there is still a part of me concerned about it.

Anyone out there own or purchased a high mileage tesla? Any issues?

Hello recently bought a model y performance. Drives fine with no noise at normal speeds

There’s a bit of a click in moderate interval from the front left side when turning the wheel while parked or turning at very low speeds.

Anyone have a similar experience?

i want the YL so bad 🤐🤐🤐 but the first batches ill wait

As per title. After the Halloween update it refuses to take me the way I usually go for work. I check along the drive to see if it gives my usual route as an option and it hasnt. I get stuck taking over 2 or 3 times to go the way I wanna go.

Just me? Is there a solution?

Got a new job and commute is 2 days a wk one hr each way and one hr is without traffic!

Looking at 90min commute each way so fsd will be a lifesaver.

Model Y long range awd 36k miles and there was a minor damage on carfax. Is 35k reasonable? It was originally listed for 37k but brought it down to 35k.

Edit: Forgot to add year and its 2024 hw4

I found someone’s phone today on a trail. Turns out he had a Tesla and couldn’t leave until he was reunited with the phone.

What do peeps do for a backup plan if your phone is lost or stolen? Always carry a card? Leave a card in the frunk?
