I now have three Tesla’s. I have two Model Y’s and one Model 3. Overall the buying experience was excellent. There was no need to haggle over prices and delivery was exceptionally easy. However, there are some draw backs. Currently we have significant negative equity in each of our three cars due to the continuous price drops after purchasing them. In one case I took delivery days after a reduction and attempted to reason with Tesla but they would not provide any kind of consideration. The cars ride very nicely and are very comfortable inside. However, the claim that you will get nearly 300 miles per charge is completely erroneous. You may extend your range if you are constantly on the highway but you are actually getting about 100-150 miles per charge in your normal day to day driving. Use those as your true calculations as you figure whether it's better to go electric or gas. Lastly we just had the worst customer service I've experienced in a while when it came to their repair shop. Recently I had to take my Model Y to Tesla because the undercarriage piece broke off for going through a puddle! Yes, a puddle on the street made the undercarriage break off. The best part of this is that they would not even cover it under warranty as the Telsa repair MANAGER said that was an "atmospheric event." Do your research and see how many others had the same issue. You should consider this car from all angles before making a decision. Although it is an excellent driving vehicle, you will experience significant frustrations if you ever need to repair it or ever decide to sell your car. Do your own research on all of these issues and draw your own conclusions.

I got the Model Y Performance. I absolutely love this car. I am a 42yr yr old male for reference. It has made driving fun again! Pros: * Ridiculously fast. Everyone is amazed at is acceleration and instant torque at any speed. * One pedal driving is a game changer. Love the car coming to a stop by itself and automatically holding the car in place when stopped. No moving from brake to throttle and vice versa. * Not having keys and just using a cell phone to get in and out is fantastic. So seamless coming to and leaving the car. Everything turns on and off automatically. * Music and movies sound amazing! * The free autopilot works great and really makes short or long trips much more pleasant. * The supercharging is simpler than a gas station. Just plug in and everything is taken care of. No swiping credit cards. Navigation to chargers is automatic in the maps. * The remote control of the car via the app for climate, charging, video monitoring, cracking windows, unlocking, etc. is wonderful to use. Car is always at the right temp. * I am an anal engineer and I had zero issues with quality control. They must have really improved. * With the performance, I have had so many people comment on how good the car looks. Grey with Uber wheels and a white interior is the way to go if you want a good looking car. * No more gas stations, oil changes, brake replacements, and having free miles with my solar system is great! * Cheaper than every other competitive EV with this performance level. 17k less than Mach E GT, 24k less than EV6 GT when comparing with the rebates I got. * Don’t have to deal with the crooks at the dealership. Super easy pick up and no extra fees. I just bought Ford Maverick also and they tried to drop $2900 bucks of extra crap on a $28k truck! Never again. Cons: * It is a Somewhat rougher riding car compared to the LR but way better than my mustang and it is much faster than the mustang. It is a performance car with sweet looking low profile tires so expected. Wouldn’t trade to a LR. Look and speed are worth it. * It is a quiet car inside for the most part but some road noise can come though due to the lowered ride and low profile tires. Again, it is a performance SUV. * No Car play sucks but honestly, the existing system does just about everything I need. Would like the maps to show cops like WAZE though. * No native garage door control without paying for MyQ, which does work very well. $48 a year though. Haven’t decided if I am renewing it. Overall, I couldn’t be happier with my purchase and highly, highly recommend. I love driving again. For the value, Tesla does not have any competition. Buy one!

Most everything about the Y is awesome. It’s handling, acceleration, charging network and even its towing capabilities. The range: We are all aware that the EPA uses a combined city/hwy method of calculating range. Thus, most any EV at highway speeds will underperform compared to its advertised range. But I turns out that highway mileage is really the only practical way of determining true range. It’s really the overwhelmingly predominant type of driving in which range becomes important. Some manufacturers do a good job of representing this in their advertising. Tesla does not. Granted, I live in WV, which is about as hilly as it gets. So that affects range. If I drive north on a road trip to New England, my maximum range before needing to charge (less than 10% battery) is less than 210 miles. That’s driven at the speed limit. So the range is more than 36% less than advertised. It does a bit better without the hills, but still falls well short of expected performance. It is a mistake to call it an SUV. It’s clearly not. 6.6” is a pathetic ground clearance for any vehicle marketed as an SUV. I can’t drive it to my favorite kayak destination. I have to keep my truck for that. The roof rack options are also very limiting. Try loading your kayaks on there sometime. It is a passenger vehicle that is meant for roads and nothing more. Also should mention that the customer service is about as poor as you can imagine. I was told to schedule my delivery appointment and had two days to choose from. When I scheduled it, the location came up as a dealership that was four hours away. The nearest one to me is an hour away. It wasn’t easy to find a human to talk with to be able to correct that mistake. This required a new appointment, with a deadline of 4PM to schedule it or else they would sell the car to someone else. Very limited window for the appointment. It’s almost as if they believe anyone can just rearrange their work schedule at any time. It turns out they did not have the vehicle or even know where it was. Another reschedule. Further hassles with insurance cards, etc. We had to stop on our way to pick it up to redo paperwork that they had for weeks. They stated multiple times that they would register the vehicle in my state. They never did. And never sent me documents to register it until I called them days before the temporary registration expired. There are many more points of failure, but I’ll conclude.

Seriously. Let me start by saying I love the car for all the reasons everyone else has said. No need to repeat. But what DOES need repeating, is the practically CRIMINAL removal of radar sensors for parking assistance, blind-side warning, and cross traffic alerts. NONE of these work worth a crap. Completely useless. I feel like I'm driving in 1970. Looking over my shoulder before changing lanes is a must. Crossing your fingers and hoping you don't hit the curb and or anything in your garage. Backing out of a parking spot super slowly and hoping no one is zooming through the lot to smash into you. Stuff like that. No top-down 360 view, like my $20,000 less Bolt EUV Premier has. In fact, all of the above that car has. To make matters more infuriating, the word on the street is that they will be bringing back the front bumper camera and radar soon - with no option to retrofit to my 2023 $60,000 MYLR AWD. I'm super pissed. I will never buy another Tesla unless they offer a way to fix this NIGHTMARE. I bought this as my forever car, and now I have to spend another $15,000 to sell my car and buy the next version which has these features put back in?? This $150 worth of parts Elon saved by removing them? Critical, everyday needed, driving and parking features?? Already in the car. Removed. And no way to add back in if you bought this $60,000 Hi-Tech masterpiece that just lost half of it's hi tech value but removing these radar sensors. Aaaaarrrrrggggghhhhh!!!!!

2024 Model Y Long Range is almost perfect

I am quite happy with my brand new 2024 Model Y dual motor long-range. For me, the technology is stunning, The ride is good, great steering, and very fast when needed. The seating position is quite nice, tons of storage space, awesome sound system, super smooth and quiet, And of course all the benefits of a BEV with the supercharger network! We got the upgrade interior in white which is a nice offset to the dark gray exterior. One pedal driving is really great once you get used to it. And of course you have built-in internet connection, so you can stream videos while you're charging. Preconditioning the interior and the battery before you drive is such a good feature. We also use dog mode extensively as we have a little dog that loves to travel with us. I like the undistracting minimalist interior, I really like the capabilities of the phone app and using it as a key. You just walk up, sit down and drive away! I realized that it's going to take a little bit longer to do longer drives, but i'm willing to accept that and have great confidence with the supercharger network. Fit and finish on the 2924 is quite good and so far no problems at all. Yes, there are some limitations technologically, like no Apple Carplay or Android Auto, but I'm willing to deal with those limitations and adapt to Tesla's approach. The buying experience was super easy without the dealer upsell issues. Overall 5 stars!
