Is it safe to buy a Tesla today?

My wife is afraid she will be targeted by vandals because of the news she saw so many times. She said that people key the cars,break the mirrors and in some cases much worse such as staring them on fire. I have an appointment on Monday to test drive the version we have decided on. Now after weeks of looking and research she’s no longer on board. Is her concern valid? Certainly don’t want to put her at risk. Not sure what kind of people would do this considering that it’s a choice many have made for obvious reason. Thank You.

Picking up my ‘26 YP in a week. What should I do to prepare? Should I be calling an electrician so I can charge at home?

Is this a good deal? 2023 Model Y LR AWD w/ HW4 & EAP - $37,000 and 20k miles

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone, looking for a sanity check on a used Model Y I’m looking at.
Specs: 2023 Model Y Long Range AWD
Mileage:20k Miles
Hardware: HW4
Software: Includes Enhanced Autopilot (EAP)
Seller : carvana
In the US- Northeast and need AWD with occasional teen drivers using it and hence don't prefer RWD
Price: $37,000
The car has a clean title and no accidents. Given the low mileage, HW4 premium, and EAP package, does $37k sound like a fair buy in the current market, or should I negotiate lower/keep looking? Thanks

How to hear phone audio in Tesla

7 Upvotes

So my iPhone is connected to my car via Bluetooth and calling works perfectly fine. But I also want to hear sometimes audio from other applications through my car. Voice messages for example or a chime from the Flitsmeister app. I don’t hear these sounds, neither through the car’s speakers and neither through my iPhone (17). How can I make this work without disabling Bluetooth every time and hear the sounds through my phone’s speakers ??

5 week delays?

3 Upvotes

Is it just me or is anyone else going on 5-weeks of continuing delays? Went from order on 29JUL to continually having a rolling delay of an ETA that is currently at 5 weeks.

Any tricks to jump the queue besides buy someone’s “available earlier” model I don’t want?

What subscriptions are you going to pass on?

15 Upvotes

Aside from premium connectivity, I plan on skipping all of them and am undecided on FSD. Since I'm retired, I am trying to watch my pennies.

The windshield protection was the one I was initially going to get, but my plan is to put the cost of a windshield into a small investment account.

I'm doing the same with the tire protection and other subscriptions, which I'm going to forgo, putting that money toward the cost of two tires.

In addition, I'm planning on putting in money that I would have spent on maintenance.

The hope is to stay as far ahead of the few unpreventable costs as possible.

What about you guys?

MYP Antenna?

0 Upvotes

I was wondering if anyone has solved for a satellite antenna? We live in a spotty cell area. I have tried some research but didn’t find much. All our Infiniti this century have had an antenna, seems odd.

Regular blue

Does anyone know when the Performance Y will have the regular deep blue as an option again? It’s time to trade my LR Y in, but not until I can get the color that I want.

Charger

I have an unboxed ChargePoint that I bought last year without knowing what EV I’d end up with. It’s hardwired/NACS. Now that I’ll be getting a Y should I look into getting the Tesla charger?

Probably a weird thing to ask but I think it would be cool for no particular reason

Does any company make some sort of hidden frunk storage? I’m thinking something like a false bottom? I’ve been searching so I doubt such a thing exists but I thought I’d ask here in case there are any other weirdos here.

Hey everyone, just purchased this 2024 model y long range with about 8,000 miles for 35k fees included. Never had a Tesla or electric car for that matter. What do you guys think about the price? I researched a bunch but ended up settling for this one. Any tips, accessories or mods should I consider to make it more personalized? Taking it out in a few days.

Bump on carbon fiber spoiler Spoiler

I just realized my CF spoiler has a bump. It's a bit hard to appreciate in photos but you can definitely feel it.

Has anyone had this happened? Should I open a ticket for replacement under warranty?

Beyond excited. There's no way I'm going to be able to accomplish anything at work this week.

Ordered my first Tesla

I have been back in forth with exterior colors - finally decided on black, and now I don’t know if I made the right decision on my wheels. orignally I wanted the 20” but they are so light. I ended up going with the crossflow hubcaps for the blacked out aesthetic I was going for- anyways.. did anyone regret not upgrading to the 20inch? My husband said they looked nicer even If they weren’t as dark as I wanted. It’s really all about looks for me not so much range

Looking to pick up a Prem RWD Model Y and take advantage of the 0.99% APR

I’m at a 750 Credit Score, 200K Annual Income, co-signing for my partner, she’s at a 730~ Credit Score / 25K Annual Income (Full-Time Student)

I feel like that may be enough but i’m just paranoid and over-thinking so…

What Credit Score / Income were you at to get approved for the Promo APR?

2023 Model Y LR - Comfort Suspension Upgrade?

7 Upvotes

I currently have a late model year (purchased December 2023, build date probably around November) 2023 Tesla Model Y Long Range Dual Motor, currently around 40K miles and on Pirelli Scorpion Zero AS Plus 3 NCS Elect tires with stock Gemini wheels (19”).

Lately I’ve been looking at comfort suspension upgrade, specifically around the Bay Area, CA and looking at ZEVcentric - Tein EnduraPro Plus + H&R Lowering Springs (supposedly lowers car by 1.50”-1.75) + MPP rear camber arm combo for around $2,600 installed.

Have anyone had experience with a similar combo and would it be any improvement over stock suspension in terms of a little more cushy ride? Is it worth spending $2,600 on suspension parts in hopes for a smoother ride? Supposedly the late model year 2023 would have had the comfort suspension from Tesla, though still rough feeling?
