    These are my HONEST thoughts about the Model Y after 6 Months of ownership! I've own 1 other Tesla, but with the Model Y, it's close to perfect but here is what it's like owning one!

    Nice review.
    I am trying to finish my last details to pick one up. Your fender issue is funny.. nott funny ha ha, funny strange. No fan boy here either. But it has got the best tech for me, at least for now.
    I am curious, did you get the auto park and summons acti step in yours? I hot what I saw as a last minute notice that there are no longer radar sensors being used, so autopark and summons are "temporarily unavailable " until an update comes out. Does yours have the round radar sensors?
    Thanks again gor the review.

    This video was so accurate and well done. I agree with the price increase not being worth it. I ended up getting the model X because the model Y at the time increased dramatically to $85k. I wanted the model Y because like he said, it checks all the boxes for most. But when the price increased so much in a short period of time, it honestly just was not luxurious enough to justify it. It is a tech car that’s fun, it’s not a luxury brand. I agree with him too- once it’s time for me to consider another car again, due to the quality issues- i may end up going back to previous luxury brands instead too.

    Great video! You answered all of my questions. I especially liked hearing how much it actually cost to install the wires. I was quoted the same amount since my box is far as well. I have a model 3 and was equally looking to trade it in for the y- especially since the price has gone down so much! But word on the street is a redesigned model Y Is on the horizon. So, i think ill just wait it out.

    We absolutely love our 3 after 4 months, and can’t wait to get our Y soon (8 month wait). I wish we could keep both. Our 3 has had no issues, on delivery or afterwards. I think they are definitely working on the quality issues.
    And like you said, you could get more range if you drove without so much acceleration, but that’s no fun. Lol

      @maverickreviewed7894 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      What makes you “think” they are working on quality issues? Thinking in one hand and reality in the other hand are two different things. Just thinking it, doesn’t make it so. Tesla has had many years to fix quality issues and I haven’t seen any major changes to that currently. I have a Tesla service/sales(pickup) center nearby that has a good dozen teslas waiting for service. My local collision center where my cousin works gets many newish Teslas that need a lot of work. One example is the missing undercoating spray. Another popular one is body panels, such as the rear bumper cover falling off. I’m a big Elon fan but he seriously needs to get his Tesla company on track as I’d like to buy one but not willing to deal with all the flaws and cheap interior for $70k+

    Great Video, thanks. I gotta say, I have owned Mercedes for the last 25 years, and many of the same problems surface on brand new mercedes suvs. engines quit/die. car fails to start because of a switch or sensor, and on and on. Power steering units fail, and last of all , fit and finish issues as well. brake issues. most of my friends are loyal bmw guys, and even more issues with bimmers, so I honestly believe that ANY mass produced vehicle , no matter what engine or drive train will have similar issues, that once in a while , cannot be avoided.

      I owned Japanese cars to avoid the reasons you and the video creator noted. I bought a 2015 Accord that I sold in 5 years after 70k miles and currently driving a RAV4 hybrid driven for about 25K miles, and let me tell you not a single issue in both my cars except for oil change and tire rotation every 10k miles or every 9 months. Mind you I can actually afford a German car, but just hate their reliability.

    Hey man! I just discovered your channel! Thanks for the review! We also took delivery of our MYLR December 24, 2021 here in Minnesota - how weird is that?. So, our MYLR is now 6 months old.
    We also got the tow hitch and Blue paint so ours cost the same as yours. In February I realized how crazy high the resale value was soooo.... on March 1, 2022 I ordered a blue MYP with a tow hitch and 3 days later the prices went up as you know. Took delivery of the MYP on June 18 and getting it wrapped with a clear "prism" PPF so it changes from deep blue to deep purple depending on viewing angle. Now, I need to sell the MYLR and it looks like that resale value is still more than what I paid for the MYP.
    .....I also got the messages for "camera blocked" messages too, mainly due to condensation in the B-Pilar cameras. Car in warm humid garage, then it goes out in the cold air and that little camera window fogs up.
    The MYP seems to have much better fit/alignment than the MYLR, both Fremont built cars.
    Curious about where you are in Michigan. I grew up in Detroit (Greenfield & Puritan) in the 1960s & 1970s then moved to Minnesota in 1977 for work and ended up staying here. My wife and I are planning a trip to visit friend & relatives in the Detroit area. Be a hoot and a half to meet you someplace along the way.
    Cheers dude!

    I've had my Model Y Performance for 12 months. 30k miles driven. Refilled the window wiper fluid twice. Replaced the 2 rear tires from wear and tear with Tesla which cost me about $1,000. No other service issues. In July 2021 I paid 68k out the door. Wrapped the car and ceramic coated the entire vehicle for $10k.
    1. Exterior and interior is a cheaper quality compared to other car companies.
    2. Manually closing the front trunk correctly can be difficult at times.
    3. Acceleration is amazing, but the ride is bumpy compared to other premium crossovers.
    4. The touchscreen is the most responsive and user-friendly compared to any other vehicle manufacturer in the market.
    5. The Tesla fast-charging network is #1 compared to other car companies.
    6. So much fun to drive. I'm probably never going to buy another ICE vehicle.
    7. Quality of life improvements make getting in and out of your car extremely easy.

    We all need more of these kinds of real-life, customer reviews. I drive less than 20 miles per day in mostly excellent warm weather in SC. Kevin, after viewing your video I decided not to purchase a FISKEER EV I had booked and went for a Hybrid RAV4! less than half the model Y or fisker Ocean price, and neat features. The fenders reportedly stay in place, and the vehicle gets a lot done with radars and fewer cameras, making simple repairs not expensive. Just imagine the cost of repairing a fender-bender on a Y. Those crazy number of sensors will make repairs extremely expensive and even unreliable.

    Thanks for the honest review. I will also be trading in my white/black 3P for a white/white YP (possibly this week).

      Hopefully this delivery goes better for you. We had no panel issues on our M3 we got in June. And our other car has CarPlay, and it’s useless without a giant screen. I much prefer the Tesla format, but do wish we could get some more apps.

    Thanks Kevin, I got the exact same configuration white on white preformance model Y with fsd in April 22, the fsd dose make driving more relaxed but it gets confused on small roads when there is a change in the painted road lines, (if the dont match uo) shutting itself off. Your driving is unfavorably scored by this error (forced shut-offs) even though its the fsd problem.
    I heard if your score is below 97 you can't get the beta (up-graded software). I'm at 92 curently, Other compaints with the fsd, it sticks to the same speed when going around sharp corners in the road so it is a bit jerky and feels like its speeding up. It sometimes dose not see speed signs (especially when the signs are caution signs in yellow here in VT) In small towns with narrow streets it drives way to close to the parked cars, if somone opened a door or stepped out between the cars an accident could occure.
    Most of the time the fsd is pretty good at keeping in the center of the road, however when there is a string of cars coming in the oppisite direction and the road is curving on the drivers side, the fsd goes very close to the center line, and the on coming trafic. My safty habit is to leave more room in case one of the on coming cars swirves a little across the line, but if you do this it will disengage the fsd.
    Another anoyance is sometimes it comes to an almost dead stop if there is a blinking yellow light, I'v gotten used to this and just accelerate, however if there are drivers directly behind you they can find it anoying. All said, I lreally like the car otherwise, however I live in the mountians on a long steep gravel driveway that gets a ton of snow in the winter so will have to see how well it dose?

    Without saying the NEMA number/descriptor (explaining the amperage and voltage, and the plug type), saying “a NEMA plug” is meaningless. They’re all NEMA plugs, that’s just a standard. You can have a NEMA plug that is the same as your household 110/120v outlet, which will charge the car in ~24 hours or so, or a 220/240v plug (like welders would use) that will charge the car in 4-8 hours. Obviously it depends on the charge state of the car, though, on how long it takes. But every Tesla adapter for the mobile connector is a NEMA plug/adapter.

  • @dathyr1

    I looked at some videos on the Model Y long range model. Looks like the base price is 54,990 dollars. With taxes and options, etc it is probably an over 60,000 dollar car.
    I didn't know the wait time are that long to get one. That is really bad.
    How is the service dept if you have problems with a Tesla???? I heard war stories getting the car serviced.
    I would also have to setup a long run for doing home charging from the house breaker box, so I would be looking at around 1000 dollars also.
    That is awesome the speeds the model Y Teslas can do. I don;t know where you would ever get the vehicle up to 150 mph, if I read the specs correctly for the performance model. The long range model I think does 130 mph. Crazy speeds.
    But thanks for your review. I am also looking some Chevy EV's as a little cheaper option.
