    The Model Y forums are still littered with delivery rejections, paint mismatch, gaps. It’s a roll of the dice but luckily you can just reject till you get a good car if you can wait it out.

    Maybe someone can figure out a way to import a German made model Y

    I feel as though I have started to like the idea of a Tesla as time goes on and don't think I'd mind owning one at some point. But don't think it can be my only car.

    Your mom get an MYP? How’s the body roll. I should go in and take one for a test drive.

    Very little roll and nose dive compared to other SUVs. The 3 is obviously more nimble but the Y is excellent for its class. Tons of cargo room (probably triple the size vs the 3) makes the trade off well worth it. This will be their most popular vehicle until their designed in China Honda Fit killer is released.

    Now that you have asked, you have to use my referral code. This is the way.

    Edit: mom found your modelmayhem profile and said that you can come test out chill mode with her.

    I have a 3 as my DD, it's exceeded my expectations so far but I haven't had any issues with it. Not having to stop for gas is a plus, not having to change oil and drive to the stupid fire hall to get rid of it, and driving to Vancouver was way less hassle than I thought it would be charging wise.

    My concerns still:
    • If something actually happens, how long will I be without the car? There are definitely some horror stories on the service side out there
    • Long weekend charging lineups could be AWFUL, have seen lots of pictures from California that look brutal haha
    • Road tripping somewhere outside of fast chargers. We'll probably just take our other vehicle or rent something though.

    Get the Y for now. Better engineering and much more cargo space. If you want a 3, I would wait for Uncle Benyl to upgrade to a Y and gently lowball him.

    Definitely take the 3, Y, and S for a spin. Tesla rep Stefan is pretty awesome. Bring the ginger beef. Beyond meet at the Tesla store?

    I am going to trade in my older vehicle for a BBQ soon so I will be down to 1 car.

    I hate that everyone is imitating CarWow with their amateur drag races as at least Mat Watson and his guys know how to launch the vehicles properly. The driver didn't even use launch control on the X3M as it's car lengths behind off the line.

    Are Tesla’s getting any better? In terms of performance variants, build quality, etc.

    Some of the journalists I follow are generally saying they’re awesome (eg Jason Cammisa on the model y performance)
    Model Y owners are now reporting that the Liquid Cooled Condensor on recently-built vehicles is supported by surplus faux-oak trim. Evidently that cooler wasn't designed to be mounted horizontally, hence the strap and interesting cushion material.

    Wouldn’t that thing get hot as hell if it’s a condenser? That doesn’t look like trim. That literally looks like a piece of corner moulding from home depot lol.

    I didn’t know @LUDELVR engineered at Tesla as a side gig.

    It's a bonus. Oak is more expensive than plastic.

    Everyone needs a side gig nowadays and with covid hitting the classrooms as quickly as it is, I'll definitely have to step it up!

    Yeah that's what I meant by trim, haha. It looks like MDF with a plastic oak-print applique. Yeah I bet she gets pretty warm.

    Apparently some cars come with plastic some come with wood. This is hidden behind the trunk moulding. The reason it was discovered is because some one was trying to fix the panel gaps in his model Y after Tesla refused to fix them.

    I watched bits and pieces of the recording of their live stream. The headlights are interesting. The power they get out of the motors is cool. The price, not cool. haha
