Low key and awesome video Ryan. Was actually parked at a public charger the other day and speaking with a model 3 owner. He was new and asked what type of things I kept in the dock. Told him I had a winter setup and summer one too. He was only made aware he could change and add features in the dock a few days before.
Thanks Ross ! Appreciate it mate. Good idea to have a winter and summer setup ! I'd say a lot of new owners probs don't realise the level of customisation you can do just on your driver profile-it's pretty awesome. Out of interest, do u have your steering set to standard?
@@RyanCowan now this is funny, but I had my steering set to sport. And while pulling out of the carpark today, I put it on standard and instantly noticed the difference. Comfort is next. But sport felt so direct with the steering.
It's pretty amazing! I kinda went overboard with the purchasing of aftermarket accessories 😅 also PPF'd my front (after having watched your vids) and tinted the windows. Still trying to figure out all the settings and working my way through the manual
From what I know legally car manufacturers have to have speedometer showing higher speed than actual gps speed (generally the tolerance is about 5% but could vary from manufacturer to manufacturer). And I certainly prefer that. Since I don’t own a Tesla I haven’t had the chance to test this but can be easily done downloading an app on the mobile that can show the actual speed and then check the same what your Tesla is showing.
Hey Ryan, Great video as always. You mentioned that you charge your Model Y to 100% every time, which makes sense as it has an LFP battery. What do you recommend for a Model Y Performance? Tesla said up to 90%, but I have heard some say only up to 80%. I would like to get your thoughts.
Thanks for watching mate, I would set it to 80% and obviously go beyond that for road trips when you need. The in car charging screen and app should recommend 80% (not 90%) as far as I remember. Congrats on getting the MYP though, such an amazing car ! Hope you're loving it
@@RyanCowan just on that question, do you keep it charged at 100% every night? Or just charge every few days when it gets low enough (like filling a petrol tank)
@@thopham13 depends on your usage. I charge to full once every week at a public charger near work. No home charging or fast charging unless necessary for long trips.
Great video. Google maps on your phone shows GPS based actual speed. Pretty sure mine 98 @ 100, so +3. Need to watch when max is somehow over limit. Ie still at 80 when getting into a 60 zone is dangerous 😳
My grand kids are about to start their 120 hour driving process before obtaining their drivers license. The Tesla has a great learners setup by activating Valet and speed limit modes. Another Tesla first.
Awesome video as always ! Can I ask for your experience with the range on the RWD and what in real life everyday use you are getting compared to the advertised EPA range.
Thanks mate ! Hard to answer this, but we recently drove 300kms without stopping to charge at highway speeds and arrived with 20% battery. So seems to be about 400kms.
Here in flat Denmark as the temps are around 20celcius, we get about 380km range with mostly motorway 110-130km/h and around 475 if we drive 50-80km/h. All in chill mode. We go between 84wh and 170wh with and avg of approx 131wh. I am told in winter it will half the distance but haven't tried it yet as the car is fairly new. We have the standard Model Y rwd with lfp battery.
Amazing video Ryan! The whole family loves watching you!! With the grandparents, do you think it would be worth them buying premium connectivity for suburb-city driving?
Thank you ! 🥰 That is very kind. When it comes to Premium Connectivity in the city, we find live traffic view very helpful. I would recommend it for most people these days.
@@RyanCowan Hey Ryan do you know if the Tesla 3 stereo has speed sensitive volume, so that it increases as you go faster? I thought it did but mine doesn't seem to. If so, where do you turn it on/off please? Cheers.
@@HelenLannister Hi, at 2:56 he indicates that he is using a standard powerpoint (10amp). The 15 amp powerpoint has a larger earth area. I used to have one before I upgraded to a tesla wall charger.
Hey Ryan, sentry mode on my Model Y is also randomly disabling after the latest update. It's annoying becuase then the car goes into sleep mode and I can't do anything from the app until I go and pysically wake the car with the door handle.
Hey ryan, how do you find the tesla navigation in comparison to google maps on your phone? Ive noticed its a bit behind with knowing that new roads exist etc. Interested to know your thoughts
I believe every car sets the speed lower than it is actually. But yes I have felt the Hondas and Mazdas play it a lot safer. I have found my 2017 Honda Civic displays 108 but its actually 100. But I think Teslas is a lot more closer. Dont have any solid evidence to back it up sorry

Excellent video Ryan. Really helpful as I will be picking up new Model Y this month.
Glad it was helpful! And congrats on the new Y arriving. Thanks for the comment mate 😁
Another awesome vodeo update on your Y. Tesla always pushing through software updates to enhance the driving experience. 👏🏼👏🏼
Thank you mate !! Hope all is well
Just picked up my MY last week! Good timing with this video 😊
Congrats mate !! Hope you're loving it !?

A must view for all new Tesla owners.
Hope you're well.

Does that only apply to counties outside the US? I compared it on my cars and the GPS speed shows the same
@@Hacker07Gaming interesting. I thought it is a general rule and US wouldn’t be an exception.
I am in Australia and we do that calibration difference

Does the Tesla referral system work if you are leasing the vehicle?

😂 haha thanks mate

Love more info on the scroll wheel options.. camera looks good - but what else can we do :D
Awesome video Ryan. Does Tesla maps show speed cameras?
Thank you ! No it doesn't unfortunately, hence why people have been asking for Waze integration.
Good to know! Thank you

I did not know you can move the blind spot display around the screen! Thank you Ryan👍.
I assume I can in my Model 3?
Yep ! 🙌

@@ecurb10 It does not have this feature, sorry
@@RyanCowan Ah, ok...thanks.
Love your videos btw, keep'm coming👍.
@@ecurb10 Thanks mate !
16 Amps for charging? A standard wall outlet is a maximum of 10 Amps. Don't burn the house down!
I’m pretty sure you can get 15 amp wall sockets that look exactly the same… perhaps he’s using one of those, and the Tesla is just one amp off?
@@HelenLannister Hi, at 2:56 he indicates that he is using a standard powerpoint (10amp). The 15 amp powerpoint has a larger earth area. I used to have one before I upgraded to a tesla wall charger.
@@arnyswart Ah, I stand corrected!
Hey Ryan, sentry mode on my Model Y is also randomly disabling after the latest update. It's annoying becuase then the car goes into sleep mode and I can't do anything from the app until I go and pysically wake the car with the door handle.
Yeah seems like the same issue I'm having. Thanks for letting me know.
Have you tried Autopilot on a roundabout?
Yep, multiple times ! Worked pretty well, but obviously not recommended / designed to do that in AP. That's what FSD will be for.
Mine threw a fit when I tried… angry noises and red flashing on the screen!
Hey ryan, how do you find the tesla navigation in comparison to google maps on your phone? Ive noticed its a bit behind with knowing that new roads exist etc. Interested to know your thoughts
Yeah recently noticed this as well, which baffles me !
I’m getting mine on 9.6.23. I’m super exited and so thankfully for your videos. Helped a lot !!
Congrats !! Very excited for you. Delivery day is so much fun. Thanks for the comment, glad the videos have helped
@@RyanCowan I´m so looking forward to delivery day ! Can´t wait haha

Yeah I watched another TH-cam do this test matching with GPS, seemed to be pretty bang on.
