@@Buchi-boi no I'm a bit of a value guy and the price on Tesla shares makes my eyes water :) buying a Tesla is a big stretch for us, but the next time old Elon goes smoking joints on live TV or something stupid, I'll be waiting to snap a few up a few shares for my kids when they fall. I mostly buy them a few shares of Universal Music and Nintendo, I think they'll serve my little men better long term, I love Elon and all but he's a bit of a basket case :)
Your video saved me $6425 having realized Standard Autopilot was all I needed and the Mobile Charger was the best choice for home charging! Amazing vehicle. Thank you for a most informative video!
Yes. My dad is an electrician so the cost of insulation would’ve been covered but I live literally 1 minute down the street from a level 2 charger installed in a convenience store parking lot so I opted for the mobile and charge in my garage when needed.
26:15 Does it use a database to determine the current speed limit of a roadway or is it actually reading signs that it sees on the side of the road? If it's reading signs, hopefully it will be able to have human-like discrimination of the 30 mph signs that pranksters converted to 80 mph. 😉
Hands down the best, most comprehensive introduction to Tesla vehicles that I’ve seen. This is an incredible resource for new owners and has a lot of value for renters as well. Thanks for creating it!
Okay- confession. I watched many of your videos leading up to my purchase of my Model Y LR. Took delivery in August. This is the most comprehensive video I have ever seen for Tesla owners. Thank you. I am now a subscriber. I always looked for you videos. Sorry for the delay.
I'm glad lots of Teslas are being sold -- I love mine BIG TIME!! However, Tesla Service can be a can of worms!! Many, INCLUDING ME, have had very poor experiences with the Tesla service system. I suggest Posts like this by Andy Slye should try to EMPHASIZE that with all these new Teslas being sold Tesla/Elon MUST UPGRADE THE SERVICE SYSTEM ASAP!!!!
I just ordered a Model 3 in New Zealand and purchased the wall charger. They sent a broken dirty one to me..... Not the best start to the experience. I was going to get a Model Y performance as well to also replace the X5 but I think I'll buy a Polestar Performance instead.
Rented a Tesla 3 in Florida RSW airport it was charged to 94% down to 48% after ride from airport to hotel 54 miles. Nearest supercharger 24 miles. Returned it to Hertz. Apparently they don't do well when it's hot! Don't rent one unless you have a supercharger close by!
True. These service issues with my Tesla caused my husband to cancel his order. First, Georgia has 6 service centers, one in Savannah and 5 in Atlanta. C’mon! No one wants to face Atlanta traffic and spend all day (or two if you have to leave it) getting to and from a service center two hours from my house. Plenty of Teslas in Warner Robins. Sexond we had a service appointment, but were sent home because they were too busy delivering new cars to honor the appointment, after we had already driven there. Extremely disappointing.
traffic aware cruise control just keeps you from run into the car in front of you. You steer manually 100% of the time. If you are on the accelerator pedal you just gave up your “auto brake”.
A trick to cancel the blinker - instead of pushing the stalk in the opposite direction of the blinker and possible making the other blinker turn on by accident - you just click again in the direction the blinker is already set. So making a left - you push down on the stalk. If the auto blinker doesnt shut off after the turn or you change your mind you push the stalk down again to cancel the blinker
I'm picking up my RWD Model 3 2023 at 2 today!! This was a valuable video to me, it explained so much that I'm no longer feeling nervous about driving it back 100 miles to my house from the dealership. Your video was clear and very understandable to the novice... not all videos are!
@@Smart-Alex You must have missed the offer by one or two days... so sorry!! Yeah, awhile at 3750 and i guess he didn't clear out inventory fast enough so gave 7500 to all buyers of 3s and Ys!! It was sweet!!!!
Again, what a great video on the Tesla. We are picking up our new Model Y AWD long range. I have seen comments on their Customer Service and for us the sales process and onboarding experience is awful and needs to be rethought and reworked. I was astounded by the relatively poor articulation of the EV features, advantages and benefits. The lack of product knowledge was astounding and somewhat stupefying to me at least. It has taken me 5 days to get the car and the dealership is app driven to the extreme. Upgrade the Upgrade the Service Experience!
Hands down the best, most comprehensive introduction to Tesla vehicles that I’ve seen. This is an incredible resource for new owners and has a lot of value for renters as well. Thanks for creating it!
Thank you SO much for this detailed video! I just ordered my Model Y a week ago and felt overwhelmed by the technology. However, you uncomplicated things, and I now feel confident that I bought the best electric vehicle on the market!
Thank you so much for uploading this. I just purchased the model Y and found this tutorial to be very informative, straight forward, and well instructed! I feel less anxious about taking over my first electric vehicle.
The best walkthrough out there on the high-tech features offered by Tesla on Model 3/Y. Andy is really good and knows his stuff. I learned quite a lot following his tutorial on the screen guide. Very helpful
Two things we had to search for: How to get the map back after looking at some other screen? (Swipe down) - no one told us. How to unlock passenger door when two of you are getting in the car? (Long press the driver door "open" button as you get in) - much easier than getting out the phone, or waiting outside until driver gets all the way in and presses the unlock on the touch screen.
It probably isn't a big deal, but the owner's manual specifically says to use two hands to close the frunk and to not place pressure directly over the center of the frunk because that could damage the locking mechanism (instead use two hands to the left and right of the center of the frunk)
33:40 Tip for cold weather: When I start driving in cold (< freezing) temps where regen is largely diminished, I immediately put in a Supercharger destination that is 20+ miles away so that the car will precondition (i.e., heat up) the battery. That gets the regen braking back in about 10-15 minutes, considerably faster than left on its own.
Its worth noting that the Aero covers on the rims are there for a reason. They help with aerodynamics and increase the range. You'll have a little less range by removing them.
Link to detailed “Control Screen” video you mentioned? Best tutorial video I’ve ever seen. Most videos are beyond irritating in how much time they waste on blah-blah-blah commentary. You sir killed this with nothing but clear, concise organized useful information.
Yes I Do. I have a Modal Y that got scratched and was getting repaired. The model 3 rental I had for some reason didn't have the charging icon. @@Buchi-boi
This was a stellar review. I just purchased a Tesla, and this has been the BEST review thus far. Thank you very much for making me feel so much more comfortable in my new car.
Regarding battery and charging (min 35 of the video). If your mY have an “F” on the 7th digit of the VIN number, your mY is equipped with F = Lithium Iron Phosphate Battery (LFP). In that case the recommendation is to recharge (always) to 100%
Another way to tell what battery it is: LFP batteries are currently only China parts and China parts are not eligible for the fully $7500 tax credit hence the reason the Model 3 RWD is only $3750 federal tax credit. Parts must be made in the USA to qualify for the full $7500 credit.
27:00 I find that following distance varies very little between 1-7. The safe driving rule of thumb is you should always be 2 seconds behind the car in front of you (I experienced this vividly in a weekend driving school). The 7 setting barely keeps this 2-second rule. I wish the setting would be incorporate a wider range of following distance - it is way too close in light traffic when there is no point in being close to anyone.
One of the most useful additions in the latest SW update is the automatic turn signals. Enabling thus feature turns off the turn signal when you have completed the turn to a new lane or new road. So you can always use the full stalk selection and it will last only as long as needed. NOTE: This doesn't seem to work for multiple lane changes.
Seems to me that when crossing multiple lanes it has a time delay that detects you are still crossing the lane lines. I am very happy to have the feature. The one downside is when turning into a turn lane it shuts off then you have to put the turn signal on again for the turn.
I'd never use this here in Southern California. The most courtesy you get from people who are changing lanes is 1 flash. They often drift around in the lanes with no signal, so courtesy like that is unheard of. The half stalk selection for 3 flashes seems like overkill here so that's what I use.
Thank you, the best introduction video I have watched, after 8 years of thinking about it I finally ordered a model Y long range this video will be watched several times again before my delivery.
Great video A lot of people assume we know all the things you covered, but some of us "Old Farts" are still back in the Stone Age. I am purchasing a Model 3, and my test drive was a little intimidating. I didn't want to touch a thing, because I didn't know enough to change anything. Everyone says it will become second nature in no time. Sure hope so.
Thanks Andy! Your video has taught me many things that make my driving experience enjoyable. Your shortcuts really hit the mark to help keep my eyes on the road.
This is a really outstanding video so many things I'm an old owner I didn't know and this is really taught me 56 different things which is valuable thank you and keep up the good work
Been on the fence about a Tesla. This is the best video I’ve seen on the subject. Lots of quality information. I do have a question that hesitates me from EVs. What is the likely hood of having to replace the battery? They’re so expensive and I don’t like the idea of buying a 30k+ EV only to have to spend thousands getting a new battery because mine took a crap. That’s really my only major concern with EVs
Best demonstration ever! Even for me , a swede with a brand New model y. And I really understand your amerikan dialect very good. That is often a problem👏 Thanks !
This is an awesome tutorial for me. I have a Model Y rented from Hertz for an upcoming trip to Oregon. This is great information for a first time Tesla driver.
Great video for new Tesla owners. Very informative and covers everything a new owner should know. Just ordered my model 3 and take delivery tomorrow. So stoked!!
What a fantastic video, I am certainly looking at getting a tesla at some point, have friends who love theirs and this answered so many questions and was very comprehensive.
Thanks soooooo much for this video I’m seriously considering a Tesla Model Y for my next car still scared of this charging thing (yea I’m stupid 😁) but your video has answered so many of my questions…..
Comprehensive & well put together review, thanks for posting. When you close the front trunk though, Tesla state that you're meant to push down on either side of the logo where the support struts are, not in the middle. It's aluminium, not steel, so pushing down on sheet aluminium with no underlying support causes it to bend, which you can see happening when you pressed the badge to close it.
Very informative for new owners. Question, are the brake lights activated during regenerative braking? I would hope so to avoid rear end collisions. Thanks.
Very informative! Makesme want to buy a Tesla! Question: At 37:16 on the phone screen app display it shows a FART icon..what does that mean? Also, What does the average super charge cost at a Tesla station? Say for a full charge? Dollar amount.. I know here in the Tampa area, down in Sarasota, the public parking garage offered FREE electric car charging parking! I had a Volt rental and was able to charge for free,,of course the 2012 Volt only had a 30 mile range!
My sisters husband me let drive his model y and it’s trippy how it starts to stop when you let off the gas ❤ smooth ride tho. 60 in 3 seconds was insane
Definitely an Ultimate Guide. I've owned a Model 3 and a Model Y over the last 5 years. I learned things about my cars in your video that I did not previously know or had forgotten. Very friendly and comprehensive guide. Thank you for making this video.
Question on Tesla App: About to take delivery of MYLR. My wife and I will both be driving car. I have started a Tesla account to manage purchase and operate car when it comes. Does my wife have to have her own account and add the car to hers or do we both just stay logged in to same account?
I keep trying to tell everyone. Have a mechanical direct connect to the axle of EVs and solar, to super charge them. No more plugging in. Use V2G tech to transfer extra energy to the power grid, so you don't have any fires or explosions and other people can use the extra clean energy. Have a manual disconnect feature for the mechanical direct connect,in case the V2G tech isn't working for some reason.
I purchased a 2021 Tesla model three performance on October 2021… At the time of delivery a full charge was 315 miles now it’s at 278 miles… I rarely use fast charger and I am lucky to have a Tesla charger at work. I probably have charged to 100% two or three times… I’m quite nervous that the range has gone down so much. Do you have any suggestions on what I should do or if this is something I should talk to Tesla service about?
Charging port isn't "always on driver rear side" (2:40). It is always on the left rear side. If you drive on the other side of the road as happens in some parts of the world, then port is still rear left.
5:07 if the vehicle gets a bad report card then it may not be something a seller would want to tout. Would the data garnered from user entries be available in a public database for review, something akin to carfax reporting?
Thanks for continuing to make great informative videos. I have learned so much from all your Tesla videos. It definitely decreased my anxiety and nervousness when driving my Model Y for the very first time. Keep it up Andy!
GREAT info, Andy! I really appreciate your calm demeanor. We pick up our new Model 3 on Saturday and I cannot wait!!! Made my appointment for PPF already. BTW, love Fresh Air too!
learned something new today- i have watched several videos but havent seen the rear trunk adjustment. Weird many dont talk about it- maybe they own the vehicle and dont know!!!
thanks - the presentation was appropriate for me - at the right level (I do not own a Tesla but am considering purchasing the Y. So, a future video that tells maybe misconceptions for first time drivers/buyers would be good for me - maybe you already have this and I will look at your other videos
The door handles require the left hand to open the driver side doors and the right hand for the passenger side doors, so you have to plan ahead if you're holding packages and only have the incorrect hand handy. It's awkward using the wrong hand, unless you can get adept using your pinky to push instead of the intended thumb.
i charge free chargers and it never drops below 88% for me. before its up to $100. there are so many free chargers in Australia there is no point is charging at home.

True. These service issues with my Tesla caused my husband to cancel his order.
First, Georgia has 6 service centers, one in Savannah and 5 in Atlanta. C’mon! No one wants to face Atlanta traffic and spend all day (or two if you have to leave it) getting to and from a service center two hours from my house. Plenty of Teslas in Warner Robins.
Sexond we had a service appointment, but were sent home because they were too busy delivering new cars to honor the appointment, after we had already driven there. Extremely disappointing.
Can someone explain the difference between full auto pilot and traffic aware cruise control again? I'm still trying to get a grasp on when to use each
traffic aware cruise control just keeps you from run into the car in front of you. You steer manually 100% of the time. If you are on the accelerator pedal you just gave up your “auto brake”.

What if you tap the map screen and the charging icon isn't there...how do you add it??
Do you own a Tesla ?
Yes I Do. I have a Modal Y that got scratched and was getting repaired. The model 3 rental I had for some reason didn't have the charging icon. @@Buchi-boi
This is the best “how to use your Model Y” video I have found. Great job. Thanks.
This was a stellar review. I just purchased a Tesla, and this has been the BEST review thus far. Thank you very much for making me feel so much more comfortable in my new car.
Just got my model 3 love the video even better did not realize you were a local till the navigation hopefully i pass you on the road sometime
That’s nice 😅
Do you have shares with Tesla ?
Regarding battery and charging (min 35 of the video). If your mY have an “F” on the 7th digit of the VIN number, your mY is equipped with F = Lithium Iron Phosphate Battery (LFP). In that case the recommendation is to recharge (always) to 100%
Is it the 7th digit at the end of the number or the beginning?
Another way to tell what battery it is: LFP batteries are currently only China parts and China parts are not eligible for the fully $7500 tax credit hence the reason the Model 3 RWD is only $3750 federal tax credit. Parts must be made in the USA to qualify for the full $7500 credit.

Production quality of this video is insane! Amazing video-thanks!! 🤩❤️⚡️
This by far is the best Tesla explanation video I have ever viewed! Wow!! Thank you!!!
Thanks for sharing
My husband bought me model y
No idea but I love the car this video is so helpful 🙏
Wow that really nice 😊
Are you an investor in Tesla?
Great tour for new Tesla owners. Thanks!
Yh that’s true😊

27:00 I find that following distance varies very little between 1-7. The safe driving rule of thumb is you should always be 2 seconds behind the car in front of you (I experienced this vividly in a weekend driving school). The 7 setting barely keeps this 2-second rule. I wish the setting would be incorporate a wider range of following distance - it is way too close in light traffic when there is no point in being close to anyone.
And feel it's the opposite, keeping my car too far back.
3 secs is the right answer bro ROLEXBALL
One of the most useful additions in the latest SW update is the automatic turn signals. Enabling thus feature turns off the turn signal when you have completed the turn to a new lane or new road. So you can always use the full stalk selection and it will last only as long as needed. NOTE: This doesn't seem to work for multiple lane changes.
Seems to me that when crossing multiple lanes it has a time delay that detects you are still crossing the lane lines. I am very happy to have the feature. The one downside is when turning into a turn lane it shuts off then you have to put the turn signal on again for the turn.
That's a standard feature on all cars. Doesn't all car do that?
I'd never use this here in Southern California. The most courtesy you get from people who are changing lanes is 1 flash. They often drift around in the lanes with no signal, so courtesy like that is unheard of. The half stalk selection for 3 flashes seems like overkill here so that's what I use.
@@jasond126I haven't seen that feature in any other cars. Other cars will turn off the turn signal when it detects the steering wheel turns back.
I do love the automatic turn signals. A great improvement.
Great video. I’m getting my Model Y in a couple of weeks and this is very helpful. I thought I knew most stuff but you always find new nuggets.😊
This is a really good video. Well done. Great information and presentation.
Thank you, the best introduction video I have watched, after 8 years of thinking about it I finally ordered a model Y long range this video will be watched several times again before my delivery.
Great video A lot of people assume we know all the things you covered, but some of us "Old Farts" are still back in the Stone Age. I am purchasing a Model 3, and my test drive was a little intimidating. I didn't want to touch a thing, because I didn't know enough to change anything. Everyone says it will become second nature in no time. Sure hope so.
Thanks Andy! Your video has taught me many things that make my driving experience enjoyable. Your shortcuts really hit the mark to help keep my eyes on the road.
This is a really outstanding video so many things I'm an old owner I didn't know and this is really taught me 56 different things which is valuable thank you and keep up the good work
Thanks for this video it was great, really useful. My only question is: does the model Y include auto steering or do we have to pay extra to have it?
I don’t think so , I know it’s a feature in the car
Do you own a Tesla and do you have shares with them?
Been on the fence about a Tesla. This is the best video I’ve seen on the subject. Lots of quality information.
I do have a question that hesitates me from EVs. What is the likely hood of having to replace the battery? They’re so expensive and I don’t like the idea of buying a 30k+ EV only to have to spend thousands getting a new battery because mine took a crap. That’s really my only major concern with EVs
I'm taking delivery of my Y today ('upgrading' from a 3). This is a great video! Thanks for going into this level of detail.
I’m late but Congratulations 🎉🎊
just got my 2022 model 3 today and this video has been very helpful, thank you!
Great user guide. Thanks. Happy holidays. Best wishes for the New Year from the UK.
Best demonstration ever!
Even for me , a swede with a brand New model y.
And I really understand your amerikan dialect very good.
That is often a problem👏
Thanks !
This is an awesome tutorial for me. I have a Model Y rented from Hertz for an upcoming trip to Oregon. This is great information for a first time Tesla driver.
Hey Andy, do u need Tesla plus for live traffic and other features?
Great video for new Tesla owners. Very informative and covers everything a new owner should know. Just ordered my model 3 and take delivery tomorrow. So stoked!!
Congrats!
What a fantastic video, I am certainly looking at getting a tesla at some point, have friends who love theirs and this answered so many questions and was very comprehensive.
Fantastic video - thank you. I’m planning to purchase my Model Y this week 🙌🏻
Thanks soooooo much for this video I’m seriously considering a Tesla Model Y for my next car still scared of this charging thing (yea I’m stupid 😁) but your video has answered so many of my questions…..
Comprehensive & well put together review, thanks for posting. When you close the front trunk though, Tesla state that you're meant to push down on either side of the logo where the support struts are, not in the middle. It's aluminium, not steel, so pushing down on sheet aluminium with no underlying support causes it to bend, which you can see happening when you pressed the badge to close it.
Very informative for new owners. Question, are the brake lights activated during regenerative braking? I would hope so to avoid rear end collisions. Thanks.
Yes they are
Very informative! Makesme want to buy a Tesla! Question: At 37:16 on the phone screen app display it shows a FART icon..what does that mean? Also, What does the average super charge cost at a Tesla station? Say for a full charge? Dollar amount.. I know here in the Tampa area, down in Sarasota, the public parking garage offered FREE electric car charging parking! I had a Volt rental and was able to charge for free,,of course the 2012 Volt only had a 30 mile range!
The 2023 model removed Ultra Sonic Sensor, did it effect the auto pilot driving experience just relaying on Cameras?
Thanks Andy. Awesome video. I just bought my first Tesla it is really helpful.
What did you attach to the roof inside your car ? 43:05
Why does the left side of the screen have to be plain white all the time? Can it be changed to darker or different colors?
GREAT, very concise video. It should be INCLUDED with all new Tesla 3's! Place a shortcut on the desktop (car screen)....
My sisters husband me let drive his model y and it’s trippy how it starts to stop when you let off the gas ❤ smooth ride tho. 60 in 3 seconds was insane
Dude that was really comprehensive. Thanks!
Definitely an Ultimate Guide. I've owned a Model 3 and a Model Y over the last 5 years. I learned things about my cars in your video that I did not previously know or had forgotten. Very friendly and comprehensive guide. Thank you for making this video.
Like my mam. She bought a iPhone 13 pro and she only plays games and go on Facebook and doesnt know the rest of the functions hahhahah.
Best video ever. thanks, a lot information in 45".
Seriously considering on purchasing a model 3 and your videos are extremely helpful. Keep up the great work
A really great overview, Andy. My niece will be driving my Model 3 and this is a perfect intro for her.
Andy thanks for the info.. I do believe though the way to close the frunk was incorrect, I thought double hands was required
Amazing job! Thanks for NOT having music playing (background) , it was easy to hear u.
Question on Tesla App: About to take delivery of MYLR. My wife and I will both be driving car. I have started a Tesla account to manage purchase and operate car when it comes. Does my wife have to have her own account and add the car to hers or do we both just stay logged in to same account?
I keep trying to tell everyone. Have a mechanical direct connect to the axle of EVs and solar, to super charge them. No more plugging in. Use V2G tech to transfer extra energy to the power grid, so you don't have any fires or explosions and other people can use the extra clean energy. Have a manual disconnect feature for the mechanical direct connect,in case the V2G tech isn't working for some reason.
Best complete guide I've seen to date. Thanks Andy
Great video Andy, new Tesla owner here, so learning a lot 🙂 and using the waiting time to be acquainted with our new car, thank you 👌
Thank you Andy!! this is super informative for me as I just got my reservation!!
Hi! I liked and subscribed. Super helpful and just what i needed to know to make a good decision. Thank you!
I purchased a 2021 Tesla model three performance on October 2021… At the time of delivery a full charge was 315 miles now it’s at 278 miles… I rarely use fast charger and I am lucky to have a Tesla charger at work. I probably have charged to 100% two or three times… I’m quite nervous that the range has gone down so much. Do you have any suggestions on what I should do or if this is something I should talk to Tesla service about?
Charging port isn't "always on driver rear side" (2:40). It is always on the left rear side. If you drive on the other side of the road as happens in some parts of the world, then port is still rear left.
5:07 if the vehicle gets a bad report card then it may not be something a seller would want to tout. Would the data garnered from user entries be available in a public database for review, something akin to carfax reporting?
Wonderful guide thank you Andy! Looking forward to my model Y next month!
Thanks for continuing to make great informative videos. I have learned so much from all your Tesla videos. It definitely decreased my anxiety and nervousness when driving my Model Y for the very first time. Keep it up Andy!
GREAT info, Andy! I really appreciate your calm demeanor. We pick up our new Model 3 on Saturday and I cannot wait!!! Made my appointment for PPF already. BTW, love Fresh Air too!
Have fun!
This is so helpful. Picking up my 2024 model 3 tomorrow and this is so helpful. Thank you.
How's the new Model 3 going ?
I'm seriously thinking about buying one myself and currently researching.
learned something new today- i have watched several videos but havent seen the rear trunk adjustment. Weird many dont talk about it- maybe they own the vehicle and dont know!!!
hi, friends. what if i locked my son in the car? my son have ways to open the door or turn on the AC?
Once he is locked in , you are in fulll control now 😅
Are you an investor in Tesla?
Outstanding, thorough and super informative video. Thank you for making this video.
Thanks Andy! We're renting one next week, and this is super useful!!!
thanks - the presentation was appropriate for me - at the right level (I do not own a Tesla but am considering purchasing the Y. So, a future video that tells maybe misconceptions for first time drivers/buyers would be good for me - maybe you already have this and I will look at your other videos
Need to show how to add the widget on the iPhone, helps on the summon feature. Excellent video BTW!
Great video! So excited to take delivery of my model Y tomorrow!!
Thanks much Andy. Very clear explanation.
This is by far the best owners Manual! thanks
The door handles require the left hand to open the driver side doors and the right hand for the passenger side doors, so you have to plan ahead if you're holding packages and only have the incorrect hand handy.
It's awkward using the wrong hand, unless you can get adept using your pinky to push instead of the intended thumb.
i charge free chargers and it never drops below 88% for me. before its up to $100. there are so many free chargers in Australia there is no point is charging at home.
Really great video. I'm not an owner of Tesla yet but planning on buying a new one. Seeing your video just showed how awesome these cars are.
Thanks so much. Very informative and quite easy to understand. Hope I can remember the most important parts getting started
Xlnt review. Just took delivery yesterday, and this vid helps greatly Thanks
