i would say the quality control issue isnt coming from them being new but most likely coming from there being no dealer in between that can check for these things
Huge fan of the Lucid rollout. First time I've seen Tesla soundly trounced in any product with the Lucid Air clearly breaking barriers that the Model S refresh should have done.
Still...awesome quarter for Tesla with forward looking prospects never looking better. Still no dividend...same true of Amazon as well of course tho so between those two i would choose Tesla for the speculative play.
Thanks man
Would you be able to make the checklist available for download?
Ryan, I "had" the same issue with the passenger mirror unfolding at night on a random basis. The SC attached a data gathering module to the car for a couple of weeks and basically learned nothing. Then they replaced the entire passenger mirror assembly to no avail. I found some info that some models of the S have individual "door controllers." They replaced the passenger door controller. It's been five days with no rogue mirror failures. The car is a June 2020 Model S LR+. The part is a Pektron 1003101-00-E.
This was a helpful video. We had a service call within a few days after I noticed glue on the large overhead window and trim on the bumper fell off. They definitely need to have a 2nd QA performed before delivery
*So many good points. No one wants to address the small things to keep in mind, I’m glad you did Ryan!* ⚡️🚘
Ryan, excellent video for prospective buyers. You can’t emphasize enough the need to prepare for charging. If the mobile connector will be used, make sure to order the proper adapter early as they often go out of stock.
Thank you for the video! As Far as information goes, this one is the best. I wish you made this video in May of 2021 when I ordered my MX
Thank you, Ryan, for a great episode.
Your reviewing all the points you made, in the end, was very helpful.
Yes, the difference in tire sizes is very useful.
We are finding more features on our Model Y long range as we drive it. We like giving voice commands to the car. (examples: play this song with this artist or navigate to the closest tesla charger or X restaurant. ) Am 78 years old so these are a "wow" for me. Did not purchase self driving, We would have little use for it. We might on a trip purchase a month of self-driving to test it out. The regular software updates are another feature we like. The ride on this car is the sports so the next version will have a softer ride as we understand it..
@@Freedom-IXOYE We have placed a 2nd order for the 2022 Model Y with 4680 battery for longer range and the upgrades. We will own 2 model Y at that time. My wife will take over the 2002. Happy wife! Happy life! Oh well. Looks like the federal EV will only be $8000 tax credit instead of cash, better than nothing, but we will not wait for another year. What is your take on the EV credit?
1. Don't buy autopilot service for 10000. Not worth it
2. Not setting charging before buying the car
3. Don't buy a bigger battery pack
4. Buy the smallest wheels with the biggest tires
5. Check quality control after delivery
6. Check for state/federal incentives
7. Buy third party essential accessories
Awesome video. Very educational. Definitely looking out for the consumer. I also have a 220 outlet installed in my garage but hardly use it. 110 works great if you don't drive more than 60 miles a day.
Excellent, on the point advice. Top class as always Ryan. Thanks
People are complaining about employee wages and this is the more reasons to start your own business. Even if its something small, make yourself your own *CEO* ...
Nevertheless, Investments are easiest means to accumulate money 💰
Yup, I feel like the only way to be young and weathy is to either invest in a lucrative business/career (like as an actor, singer, or start an extremely successful business) with the help of a broker/mentor, or by taking advantage of people in sales. I know of one person that is 24 and "rich" who works at a car dealership. Apparently he forces people onto vehicle they can't afford or that they can barely afford. That's basically scamming people ..
We don’t have a Tesla showroom nearby. So when I set up a test drive online and it showed a nearby test drive I was shocked to find a Tesla service center so close. Tesla rep walked us through the incentives and showed us which ones to apply for now and what is applied for after delivery.
Hi Ryan! I have been watching your videos and I’m subscribed to your channel, but have never left a public comment till now, just wanted to say a HUGE thank you for introducing me to the split volt as a home charging solution. I am going to look into it! So glad I found out about this option before hiring an electrician to do wiring, etc, to install a home charger. Do you know if this mean since I don’t have to pay for any additional electrical work, I also don’t have to apply for a city permit for a home ev charger?
Update: I just checked and my dryer uses a standard 120 volt outlet, not a 240! I think this means I still have to pay to have one installed 😢
Great points Ryan, must admit we were so excited to get our model 3 SR+ LFP so quickly, we barely checked quality issues, fortunately we haven’t found any issues, quality control seems to have gotten better. We also went w the same charging option as you, instead of a dryer we have a 30 amp water heater and used a ‘DryerBuddy’ to do the switching, Brad at BSA Electronics out of Vegas was very helpful in configuring our set up, needed slightly longer cables. Thanks for the great videos.
My model 3 long range comes November-December 2021 and my Model S long range come March-April 2022
LFP preferred to charge to 100%, at least once a week. That has its advantages.
Congrats with your Tesla! Great car, lots of fun 😄
@@MarcoYolo420 It doesn’t - that’s just marketing guff. LFP doesn’t “prefer” anything - the battery will definitely last longer on 20 - 80% but will also tolerate 100% charging better than other lithium chemistries. It’s a longer lasting chemistry anyway and should last a minimum of 4000 full cycles - that’s nearly a million miles on an SR+. It might not last that long in an EV as you are stressing any battery chemistry during acceleration and regen.
@@mondotv4216 I'm afraid you are misinformed Mondo. Take recommendation from the manufacturer, or if you want to dive deeper in battery chemistry, I would highly recommend TH-cam channel "the limiting factor" by Jordan Giesige, he has a video serie on LFP too.
@@mondotv4216 quote from _"the limiting factor"_ by Jordan Giesige his LFP video:
_"... And for those concerned about LFP batteries being inferior to Nickel batteries, as Elon has suggested in this tweet, they’re not. Like all battery chemistries, LFP does have eccentricities, but on balance will perform as well in Model 3s as the current Nickel based chemistries._
_In short, if you live in a hot climate, LFP is hands down a win. If you live in a cold climate, there is a potential for lower performance, but there are workarounds thanks to Tesla’s superior software and thermal management systems. If you live in any climate, you’ll be getting a million mile battery that’s much more robust to regular 100% charges"_
My merc' has been covered in PPS film, this work was carried out by Xpel in the UK, the job protects the cars paint from chips/scratches & because the shine is built into the film makes cleaning the car much easier with no need for expensive polishes, overall, its worth the added protection.
Thanks for the heads up.
This video was packed with helpful information. Thank you!
Thanks Ryan. I am getting set to buy my Model Y and this was very helpful!
5:36 charge to 80% recommended for nickel batteries. The Tesla's with the LFP batteries can handle daily charge to 100% without issues.
Not correct. Tesla recommends the lower charge to maintain battery life.
@@benjaminmorton9436 not correct Benjamin.
Elon Musk on twitter:
_"Our intent with this pack is that product experience is roughly equivalent between nickel & iron. I’d personally slightly opt for iron pack, as it wants to be charged to 100%, whereas nickel prefers ~90%."_
1:46 AM · Aug 27, 2021
Nope.
2 things that prematurely age (oxidisation) all li-ion batteries, including those in your phone:
long periods of time at full cbarge, and high temperatures.
60% charge is the li-ion soc for shipping and warehousing of li-ion cells for maximum shelf life. Your Telsa battery will last much longer if charged to only 60%. 80% is a good comprimise between battery life and convience.
Also, do not supercharge. Those are 7 year old Model S with 96% original capacity because they were never supercharged.
Look after your battery.
@@nordic5490 you should tell this to Elon.
I am sorry, but you are just a guy on TH-cam. I trust what was said by Elon Musk: _"iron pack wants to be charged to 100%"_
@@nordic5490 ... and you are talking about Li-Ion, I'm talking about Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) batteries.
@Ryan Shaw I'm so happy that here in Europe we have enhanced autopilot for half the cost. SO WORTH IT!
Thanks for the tips!!
So practical and extremely informative points for new Tesla owners! I wish I knew all these before getting my Tesla ;) Great job Ryan!
And shows how expensive a Tesla is.
Love all the Tesla news. Great job
As usual, very helpful content Ryan. Here in BC there is a $350 rebate from BC Hydro for installing a home charger. EV rebates: only standard range Tesla Models 3 and Y and Long Range Model 3 qualify for the $3,000 EV rebate, along with other EV's under $55,000 CDN qualify. I don't think the FSD works in Canada yet as Tesla may not have collected the highway data needed for it to operate fully.
Something that would be nice to add to your commentaries is to include metric measures when commenting on range, as Canada and all of Europe and even the UK I think now use Metric system for distances and for things like range kWh. Even the EPA offers metric measures in their fuel efficiency ratings as an option. Thanks and keep up the great work.
Love how you summarize at the end. Great video!
Lot of points of interest covered. Thank you.
i've been in TSLA for 6 years..happy i did. I've ordered the S dual motor fsd while the tri motor fsd cybertruck gets here. i have lots of solar & backup battery to charge them both at home.. i also love SpaceX. we went to see it live last year from California to Texas Boca Chica. I was born in Raymondville btw.
Thank you, you have answered all the items I wondering, especially FSD.
thank you for the video, very helpful
dude, just saying that I love watching your vids. Thanks for the research you do and putting it together so I can easily listen. I have a Tesla model 3 and plan to get the cyber truck.
That was excellent and informative. I subscribed.
Excellent video, great points, thank you!
Thanks! Getting ready to order my Model Y!
Great video! I will be building an attached garage and extra living space in the next couple of years and have already planned on adding two 220V lines in the garage for EV's. It will be an easy add with walls open
Thanks for the info as usual! Mine is being delivered to my house tomorrow! So excited
Congratulations 🥳 what color and interior did you get. How was delivery?
Thank you for your video! It gave me a lot of tips before I made an order for Model Y.
Great video, outstanding information, really enjoyed watching.
Always love your content Ryan! 👍🏻 Would be fantastic if you could tell km in addition to miles. I still can't convert these numbers so fast in my head 🤗
For an approximate conversion which is easy to quickly, to from miles to kilometres, just take the number of miles and add half on top.
It isn't exact, but for most general uses where precision is not required it will do just fine as a rough guide.
So 10 miles, 10 + 5 (half of ten) = 15.
There is actually 1.6 km per mile, so in reality the answer is actually 16, but as you can see, the approximation is pretty close and normally good enough
@@christopherhartley6900 one mile equals 0.6 km so it’s a bit off your calculations:-)
Ten miles equals 16,09 kilometres:-)
There is another reason difference between SR and LR. LR is the Dual Motor which provides all wheel drive which is for better handling in areas which has diverse weather conditions. I went for the LR for this reason, I always liked the handling of all wheel drive vehicles.
Amazing video, love it, thank you btw… I would emphasize more on the checklist at delivery, because at that point, you are hyped and you will forget everything, and having the checklist will help you to put your feet on the ground.
Great info! I just ordered a model Y. I didn’t realize the issue with the wheel and full self driving
Great video. I wanted to ask has anyone who owns a Tesla wished for a shield around top and sides to shade the screen, and do you suggest one brand. Other question are there complaints about noise level in Tesla. I have watched several video's about noise, but no real answer for improvement. I think all new vehicles should have noise level ratings in information. Recent hearing impaired people like myself seem to notice noise more then I ever did before as it interferes with conversation.
Truly useful advice. Especially QC at delivery is very important.
I have a 2023 Model Y long range being delivered in one to two weeks. I have watched many you tube videos on all the aspects/features of the Tesla model Y. So i kind of know what to expect.
I didn't get FSD or EAP and I know how Basic Auto Pilot works (pros/cons). Charging will be mainly at home. So I will see how my delivery inspection goes and take it from there.
Thanks for the video.
Splitvolt... Brilliant! That's the way to go. Thank you!!
Great information. Thank you very much 👏
Nice! Appreciate this video!
Very helpful . Thanks!!
Great vid , THNX
🙌 great vid !
I’ve made all these rookie mistakes :)
In particular, I should have looked over my car thoroughly. And got ppf earlier on .
Thank you this is brilliant.
Great Report Ryan!
Do you have a delivery checklist to share after doing this 3 times?
We pick up our new Model Y between Jan 5th & February 2nd. We're so excited!
Cheers,
Eric
Yes, this is very helpful information
This video helped a lot! Thanks
This would have been a good video to watch when I started my EV journey. I LOVE my 21MYLR, but there were a lot of QC issues at pick up and more keep popping up, even months later. It’s about to go in for its 4th service visit in just as many months. Never for more than a day, and none of it huge stuff…just a lot of little things. Trim pieces here or there, hatch not aligned, now I’ve got a rattle in a door and the windshield wipers hit the hood when the present themselves. All that said, I LOVE my car and plan on upgrading to a new Model Y in a year or two once Austin gets up running.
Just out of curiosity do you get a loaner vehicle while your Tesla is being repaired?
@@drathen1556 I get either a loaner vehicle or Uber credits ( generous ones) added to my account -time limited to while my car is being fixed. Works out fine for me.
why would you upgrade your MY in just a year or two? and what makes Austin factory special?
@@lijolukose6965 I have no doubt mine would last for years, but I bought a Long Range and I think I want a Performance. Austin’s Y’s will (eventually) be using a new unibody design as well as a new type of battery technology that’s supposed to be more efficient and robust. Austin Y’s should also be assembled with new tooling which should increase build quality and reduce panel gaps and fit & finish issues that cars built at the Fremont factory are known for.
@@Oncampus2k Makes sense. I did read about that which is nice. But I do feel a little skeptic about the Austin factor (only during the initial stages) given that there will be brand new machines and employees, which could potentially increase the chances of defects. But I hope not because my delivery is scheduled next year lol.
totally agree on the wheels
Excellent, helpful video. Thank you.
Great information. Thanks!
I used a normal 110 to charge at home for nearly 2 years with no issue. My daily weekday commute was ~50mi… charged daily and added back ~30mi per day
@@Esstron716 lol yeah exactly… 99% commute… and then I use my ebike to zip around town and to nearby friends house
For ~500$ you could’ve been charging 10x faster. To each their own. It removes a tremendous amount of range anxiety having a 240v on demand.
@@patrickdonofrio3082 yeah, I have since bought a 220 adapter to plugin to dryer outlet in garage. Was like $35 I think? Now I only have to charge 1-2x per week. In hindsight, I should have just done that from day 1, but it was never really a problem.
When I used the 110 to charge, my electric bill doubled in price.
@@marlenehenley2781 you must’ve had a cheap electric bill to begin with. Still beats gas.
Thanks for the information that you shared with us I live in Canada so I'm deciding to buy a new tesla but I didn't know this 7 important point that I have to know that I understand what should I do before to purchase the car. .Thanks again.
Shelby Curch said the same thing about FSD, car summon she most of the time just had to run to the car for the same reason, either the car went the wrong way or simply holding up traffic. Huge note about the federal tax credit, it is non-refundable and that means it ONLY covers tax you owe, owe nothing = get nothing.
Great video Ryan! Helps me a bunch!
Ryan thanks for your avoiding mistakes. I have a few comments on my 2021 Model 3 performance. I dont know where to direct these comments. Driver side windshied wiper has a large reach and the washer is mounted high on the wiper and at speed the washer does not wash the lower 1/2 of the windshield which is area driver views most. So bugs and debris are not adequately removed. I recomment a second lower nozzle or including a second lower washer nozzel on the wiper blade. Second, Tesla just notified me that my "trial" of the gps with aerial photos and other " enhanced" features has expired and now they want. 9.99 a month to continue.
Am planning to buy a Model 3 and these are valuable recommendations.
Great video, thank you 😊
These are all really really good points. I wish I watched this before I bought mine a year ago lol I have FSD and I got a standard when I now wish I got that long range. I’m lucky if I can get 200 miles lol. Great video
THANK YOU SO MUCH Ryan! I just ordered the S model. I will log back in and take off the 21" wheels since I want a smooth ride; also taking off $10K auto driving as I don't want that financed!
Great Video... Thanks. But, it's definitely geared towards the person buying NEW. Can you do a video for the person who's looking at buying a low mileage 1-3 year old model? Thanks.
I’m on the three week countdown for (hopefully) delivery for my Model 3 SR+. Do you have any advice for third party winter tires? Winter tires are sold out on the Tesla store. I live in Canada, and there’s a good chance there will be snow when I take delivery.
In some areas, the utility company might also offer incentives and specials. I just missed out on a $500 credit for installing a home EV charger, but did qualify for an EV discount of $0.015/kWh during off peak time for charging. So be sure to look into what your local electricity provider may offer as well.
Great video as always, Ryan!
I just got a level 2 wall connector. City of Anaheim, CA has a $1,000 rebate for the networked charger and is giving me $2,000 to upgrade my panel to 200amp solar ready with a Time of use meter one year agreement. 5 bucks a month for the meter and off peak 11.17cents summer and 10.56 cents kWh winter. Not bad!
@@MelissaGarza Sweet deals!
Our non summer rate (just started 10/1) is just over 9 cents/kWh for off peak time. In summer, it runs just over 10 cents/kWh. SO much cheaper than fossil fuels, and much more convenient!
Well worth looking at your local utility to see what they offer.
@@ezpoppy55 what city and state are you in?
@@MelissaGarza Just up the road from you - Sacramento CA. Our utility (SMUD: Sacramento Municipal Utility Dist) is publicly owned.
@@ezpoppy55 LOL a long ways up the road!!
The splitvolt definitely a must have thank you Ryan I will definitely be getting this
There's an easy, economical way to liberate the dryer plug, it's called a clothes line ;-)
You mentioned that if you purchase the FSD at the time of your car purchase it can be included in your financing. It seems more important to know if the FSD would be covered on insurance. Any idea if it would be covered?
You’re awesome sauce for making this video
Hey man, I think your videos would be a lot more accessable to people outside the United States if you also included metric units regarding things like speed and distances. Other than that, I think you're absolutely killing it!! Great channel to subscribe to!
Great tips and info!
I'm planning on buying a model Y in 2023 (FSD will be really good by then, higher production levels). Should I order now but not take delivery in 2023 or wait. Just your thoughts?
With the tax incentive appearing to be point of sale and portions of the credit subtracting offshore batteries one wouldn’t think of buying till after the tax credit is established
Great video. Thanks!
Hello Ryan I live in LA just got my model 3 last week is it too late to apply for those credits from Edison or any other incentives available… thanks 🙏🏻 I will really appreciate your help.
Excellent info.
Good list of items to consider. A couple of questions- 1. you mention std range can easily cover a daily commute with 268 miles, but you had just finished saying to not charge over 80% for daily driving, so isn't that really 214 miles (on a nice day - no heat or a/c)? 2. I still find it odd that the quality strategy is to walk with a checklist and prepare for your post-delivey service visit. At what point does it become Tesla's responsibility to deliver a high-quality finished product to the customer at delivery?
Thank you for your informations!! It was very informative! I have until next year to get my order, any information helps!
Didn't mention performance when it came to wheel size too. You get better sidewall rigidity with smaller tires and better corner feel and perf. So if someone wants a more sporty feel, you want the bigger wheels.
Related to the stock wheels, do you consider getting hub caps from third party companies to still have a better look but better ride?
In cold climates, consider an under carriage / rust protection right after delivery. Then the Anti-Rust treatment will stick better.
Great video Ryan. I can definitely attest to making sure you thoroughly review the car at delivery for issues. I did what I could but discovered several issues over time that to this point the Service Center has been great about addressing. Tesla definitely still has a ways to go with initial build quality, in particular as it relates to the exterior. Unfortunately, no matter how thorough you are at scoping out the car you don't know what you don't know and inevitably find other issues as you get more familiar with the car.
Definitely recommend the level 2 charging station at home - it's not cheap but I get 50 miles/hour charge speed and you never know when you might need a quick charge turnaround so I like knowing it's available if needed. As is, mine only takes 2-3 hours to get to 80% charge on a 60W amp after a normal driving day.
Keep up the great videos!
i believe they do specify the range diff based on the wheels, the mile range adjusts when you change it on their website last i recall.
Very focused advice . My main issues in buying a Tesla 3 would be the lack of a HUD which I think is a safety must . I would agree with the wheels , go for the medium diameters . I wonder if Tesla still offers the silver alloys instead of the rather 'grubby' (in my opinion) black walled ones ? My American friend has just bought a Tesla 3 here in Paris and though very happy with the car found the exchange rather underwhelming at the warehouse ! In fact he could hardly drive the car away and then only with the help of his savvy 4 year old son !!
Changing from 20 inch wheels to 19 inch OR 19 inch to 20 inch(I,m not sure about tesla,I don't own one) but usually the diameter/circumference of the tire should not change,the 20 inch wheel should use a lower profile(sidewall) tyre and the 19 inch wheel a higher profile(sidewall) tyre thus keeping the overall height/circumference of both size wheel and tyre the same,I can't understand why you would lose milage.
I like the earplugs as well as the info on buying a Tesla
The range you are talking about in the video is that from your "normal" SoC at 80% or is it from 100% SoC?
And is your range to what lower SoC 0% or 10% or 20%?
So what is the realistic high-way speed range in an SoC from 80% to 20%? And after 200 000 miles?
What happens with battery degradation (SoH) if always charging to 100% versus always charging to 80% after say 200 000 miles?
this has been the must informative program on tesla
2:04 Absolutely ridiculous you have to request access to something you paid for. FSD was only $6 or 7k when I bought my 3. Two years
and 50k miles later, I'm glad I didn't buy it. Had I done that, it's likely I would only have FSD for 2 years or less before replacing my car at 4 or 5 years.
I have friends with late 2018 early 2019 Model 3 with FSD and they have already replaced their car. Never got the FSD functionality even once!
even more ridiculous that in long range models you have to pay to get more acceleration thats just sitting in your car
The FSD computer isn't included in older Model 3s. Ex: my 2018 mid-range came with HW 2.0 and before I could take advantage of the current "FSD" features my HW had to be upgraded to 3.0. I believe all recent years Tesla's come with 3.0 HW.
I live in a townhouse with no garage and no hoa. I only have a regular plug on the front of my house with the electrical outlet in the back of the house. What what you suggest I do for charging? Also I drive a lot and would definitely need the upgrade.
For me personally long range is the best way to go because you can have the best of both worlds the extra 10,000 is and should be seen as a investment going to take the advice on autopilot going to keep the standard till fsd is fully functional the price isn’t worth the current features
Just ordered a Model Y. But seeing the issues you had with a way more expensive S...
I'm hoping the MIC have fewer problems 🙈
Amazing review
Great job with this video.
