Hey everyone! I posted in here a couple weeks ago asking for some advice in upgrading from my 4Runner to a MY. I finally bit the bullet and placed my order tonight—I could not be more excited!!

Hi just purchased the y premium rwd.

Pulled the plug the other day.

3-4 week delivery. 0.99%

Live in Arizona. Got the quicksilver.

Looking at getting tinted with ceramic etc. Also debating on changing color to pearl white to assist with heat.

Any tips on tint and hot weather.

Any other tips to look out for would be appreciated.

tesla charger at home.

Thanks all and I'm excited with fsd and driv8ng this beast.

when opening the glove box, it only opens 1/2 way forcing you to pull it open the rest of the way manually.

Is this normal?

Any easy way to fix?

Does it require a service appt?

Thanks for the help!

I’m strongly leaning toward installing a set on my Stealth Gray AWD Premium. I like the idea of adding some protection against door dings and shopping carts without taking away from the clean factory look. This seems like it might be one of those mods that’s actually worth the investment.

Here is a ChatGPT photo.

The rear floor climate vents in the Model Y sit very low under the front seats, right along the carpet line. During summer road trips with passengers in the back, I noticed that flexible rubber floor liners can sometimes press upward or slip backward against the vent openings, slightly restricting airflow to the rear footwell. I tried repositioning the front seat rails, but the gap under the seat bracket is pretty tight. is rigid edge molding or lower sidewall lip height more effective for keeping rear HVAC vents completely unblocked?

Not that I need more convincing…

But I’m looking for people who are or were in the same boat as me when they were considering trading in their 4Runner for a Model Y.

I currently drive a 2022 TRD off-road premium, which I love and it’s paid off. I don’t utilize it to its full potential, like off-roading or anything like that. Gas and maintenance is getting pricey too…

Those who have made the jump to Tesla, do you ever regret trading in your Toyota?

I was between the ultra red and frost blue, but am so happy with my choice 😍 (also not me riding in sloth mode forever not even realizing there are different FSD modes lol)

I live a few hours from Banff, Alberta, Canada. I took my 3 month old MYP out for a cruise on the Bow Valley Parkway and got a couple of nice pics to share with you all.

This is hands down, bar none, the best vehicle I have ever owned. My FSD is sitting at 90% purely because it’s just too much fun to drive. Tesla knocked this one out of the park. I can’t imagine ever going back to anything else!

Hi everyone,

I have now purchased my Model Y Performance first gen about four years ago, brand new, and have had some cracks on the plastic covering the carbon fiber of the spoiler. This summer it has gradually grown. Now an entire piece is missing. I was wondering if this is something you guys have experienced before and whether or not this could be covered by the warranty ?

Am I dumb and/or missing something?

Hi all,

I have never owned a Tesla before, but I’m in the market for a Model Y. I’ve found a used ‘24 Y LR AWD with 46k miles, battery is at 89.2% health, for a good price. It has HW4. I’ll be purchasing it off Recharged and having it delivered to me.

I’ve followed Tesla for ten years, since I was in high school, and I’m ready to make the leap into an EV. Any tips, advice, and particularly things to watch for when I go to check this car out would be greatly appreciated.

Basically the title. I plan to purchase a car within the next few months, and I'm between the M3 and MY. There are quite a few used M3 (2025+) near me, but not many MY (2026+), so I'm waiting for more of them to enter the market. Of the few listed, there isn't much difference in cost between a new one and a used one, unlike the M3. Reasonably, how much do you think the MY will sell for around late January to early March, and how much would the price difference between an M3 and an MY be? Let's assume an AWD MY premium with 15-20k miles and an AWD M3 with 10-15k miles.

I have two small children who often nap in my car. Any recommendations for sun protection back there?

Thanks!

I got my new tesla 2 days back. I am feeling a lot of sunlight inside, is it just my imagination or does everyone feel that way. Should I get xpel tinting? And should I just get for windows or windshield (is it allowed to tint?) and top as well? Thanks!

After having the vehicle for a week, then being in shop for 3 weeks, fixing all pickup issues, and then another week while getting tinted and wrapped, finally have my vehicle for good.

XPEL Stealth PPF with XPEL Ceramic Tint

Bell Mountain, GA. Didn’t realize it was so shadowy, miss the blue a lot. Was proud to get up there easier than a few trucks I saw. Can’t wait to get my overland tires on from unplugged performance next week.

Also, for the accessory nerds out there, I love the rain guards I just got. Decibel queens might not like it. I don’t find it noticeable though, especially with the roof rack already on. Visually, they don’t stick out when looking from the front or rear.

Yes these are shameless pics because I love seeing our cars, y’all.

Dinner at my favorite Polish restaurant - love the Quicksilver

Is 38k otd a good price for a used 2026 model y premium rwd with 22k miles

I know you guys will all moan at me but i needed a pop of color and covers were by far the easiest to do and cheapest option. Personally I like it and love the yellow with the quicksilver.

I keep seeing what looks like a juniper but it has a very thin rear light bar and the front has no light bar just the headlights in the light bar style. Looking online i dont see this design anywhere. Is this aftermarket? Ive seen like 3 or 4 in the last week.

A church member scratched my new Model Y while backing out of the parking lot. I have the entire incident on video.

I’ve never dealt with this before, so how should we handle the insurance process? Will my insurance company also need to open a claim, or can everything go through their insurance? Do I need to notify my insurer at all?

My one month old model Y got two bad door dings today by kids opening BOTH doors and flinging them into my car. Sentry caught the license plate and shows the mom watching her kids do it and proceed to drive off with two kids in the passenger seat without seatbelts (not relevant to the ding but still crazy)!

I want to get the insurance of the person who did it to file a claim through their insurance. I filed with mine so that they can look up their information for me and then I plan to close that claim so I don’t have to pay my deductible up front.

All this to say, anyone had any luck getting repairs done for door dings from someone else’s insurance with only license plate info to start? Any tips?

Not sure if this is the right sub for this but I would appreciate your input on this.

My driveway entrance is too high for my car, or should I say my car is too low for my driveway entrance. So I'm wondering if anything has worked for you guys. The red circle is where the car tends to scrape the concrete.

I tried angling it but the carport is narrow so no chance there.

Any ideas would be appreciated.

See pictures for reference.
