As a new Tesla owner (who hasn’t owned a car in 18 years) I’m grateful for you! Thanks for creating all this great content.
Good show man, I just got performance Y and you show was a huge help. I also subscribed
You remain one of my favorites, Chris! Such a great personality and your videos truly helped me when I first got my Model 3 early last year. I watched them before I picked up my car at Tesla and it made the whole experience so much better and less stressful. Thanks!
Wow thanks so much means a lot!
Love your videos. When I have to do something with my Y, like changing cabin filters, you are my go-to guy. Keep up the good work, and thanks.
Will be picking up my Tesla tomorrow. Your video helped me prepare and I have a much better idea of what questions I need to ask. Great job!
Thanks Chris your videos have been very valuable to me I always learn something and I have owned my “Y” since Aug 25 2022. I learned several things watching this video….then you again and keep ‘em coming😊
haha thanks Kenny!
Love your vids Chris! Always looking forward to your next upload. Just got my M3 last week and I’m loving it!
Woohoo awesome!
Chris. thanks so much for your videos. extremely useful for a newbie Tesla owner. Much appreciated ur efforts. keep up the awesome work and keep it coming.
Thanks so much!
just picked up my model Y. this is very helpful
All great tips. Thanks for bringing these helpful hints to the masses!
You got it!
A couple of weeks ago I had the pleasure of test driving a model 3. A great experience! Every fiber of my being asked me to reserve that model. I know it's going to be a while but I'm waiting for more mileage from newer batteries and for maintenance to become less expensive.
Don’t get hooked up on the idea that battery mileage will increase over time. There’s a reason light bulb manufacturers made a pact to limit the life time of a bulb.
Getting a tesla means not having to ever pay for maintenance again. Rotate tires and that's it
Thx Chris… knew almost all you mentioned. many of the boring things you mentioned are just practical car maintenance and taking car of your car and learning the right way to take car of your car.
Awesome video dude, thanks!!!
Thanks a lot for these tips, just got my model 3 a few days ago so it's a lot to take in. This was really well explained and very easy to follow.
I have mine now like 4 weeks and before i got it and the first week i was looking at so many videos that started to make me sick…so yes its a lot to learn and take in…id say sort the charging thing cause its the most important then just stop watching these for a while amd go on youtube now and then to check specific things….this took my anxiety way down….😂 hope helps ypu too
@@ViktoriaKLSK Thanks, I'm still not sure how some things work so I've just been googling away haha. It's fun to have a car that has me discovering new things all of the time though.
Thank you for your tips… more power to your TH-cam 🙏
You're so welcome!
Thank you Chris. Excellent put together just like your rest of the videos. I watched most and they were very helpful for me before getting MYLR. I appreciate all of your efforts in sharing the knowledge. ❤
Wow ! That was alot ! Good thing you are sharp and have a good memory ! Best to you Chris !
Thank you!
The double negatives here are driving me crazy. How about naming the video “do’s and don’ts of owning a Tesla”
Comment "down below". 😂
@@Charlesbjtown don’t not comment below
Make sure to DONT NOT COMMENT BELOW!
@@EverydayChrisyou may think it is nice but you may be liable for damages since you give advice yet decided to play double negative word games.
Hey Larry, I teach ESL and alerted Chris to his use of DOUBLE NEGATIVES. I explained the meaning of double negatives and recommended that he edit the video. Mr. Zimmmy 😅!!
U just answered my question about the tire repair. Good looking.
Thanks for sharing.
Great tips! People have talked about Tesla nightmares, but this video literally points out what people should have done to prevent it. I enjoyed this! Entertaining and informative. 👏🏼👏🏼👍🏼👍🏼
yaya thank you!!!
PS , discount tires does free tire rotation, even if you did not get your tires there
About to pick up my new car and had no idea about MFA. It should be more prominent or even mandatory! Thanks
Great video and advice ty!
Just got mine last night, Model Y performance, it moves as fast as my M2 Competition. Probably just not in the corners. Great Daily, easy to drive
Sheesh SO m2 or MyP?
Hey I recently had a flat tire and tesla fixed it for a whopping $130. Do we need to go to tesla exclusively to rotate or fix flats? And if not, order the jack accessories so another tire shop can repair to save costs?
0:31 you named your Tesla "Daddy Chill"? 😂😂😂
Awesome Video. Very Useful and informative. Thanks So Much!
You named your Tesla "Daddy Chill"? Lmaoo
On the flip side, you got your 8 years battery warranty , might as well charge 100% to obtain a new battery before letting this warranty to void, heck frankly speaking, even with keeping up the habit 20/80 rule you're not guranteed will not fail ,speaking from m3 performance @ 20k mileage , so i say charge the hell up , i do 95% all the time now
Thank you Chris!!!!
I used to live in so cal, here in AZ I pay under 7 cents a KWh to charge on the EV plan super off peak.
Hi Chris! Loving all your videos as I recently got a MYP! I was wondering have you reviewed or installed the Auto Presenting Driver Door and Soft Closing Doors from Hansshow?
No I haven’t! A lot of people have questions about that and the auto frunk. Maybe I’ll check it out sometime
@@EverydayChris sounds good I'll be looking forward to the review if you ever decide to try it!
I've owned our F150 since new in 2010 and it's time to buy a new car. I think it will be a model 3 long range! I appreciate your tips and videos! We will definitely keep the truck for doing truck things. LOL
you’ll be sitting a lot lower than the F150. After getting used to my Mod Y for 3 months now our old Honda seems like you are sitting uncomfortably low.
May want to consider a Y if you are used to the 150, jus sayin🤔
I have a 2018 Model 3 long range and my mom has a 2007 Ford F150 Crew Cab. She's been driving my Tesla almost exclusively but the Ford's still in working order with the ac not working. Thank goodness everything is automated in the my m3 because she's never attempted to shift into gear with the indicator stalk.
I love the “my high voltage battery failed for unknown reasons” and “I charged almost exclusively at a super charger for a year and haven’t had any issues” in the same breath. 😂
So I live outside of Boston Massachusetts and I'm thinking about getting a Tesla but I won't have a home charger so if it sits overnight and cold is that going to hurt my long-term helath of battery life like will it start to decrease my battery overall life ?
Hi Chris, I don’t drive my Tesla every day, sometimes I just drive 10 miles on a 1 day then not drive it for 2 days, do you recommend plug it in to charge even though only drive 10 miles that particular day and don’t drive again for another day or so?
How do I get to the Charging Screen that has the view of the battery instead of a graphic showing 0 - 90%
Great info and loved how being a real man by slamming the hood:). I used to live in So Cal but now live in Alabama...power rates are 11 cents flat rate, 24/7, year round...I don't miss California much anymore except I had to drive to Mississippi to find my electric vehicle as Alabama is still stuck in the Stone Age:).
There are actually huge data sets that show there is no significant difference between super charging degradation and AC charging. The biggest impact seems to come from high temperatures for extended periods as well as keeping the battery at a higher state of charge
Is there a way to tell which type of battery we have? Also, I recommend adding the Tesla app to another phone (spouse, work phone, etc.) so you don't have to worry about getting locked out. Great video Chris.
Agreed! LFP's for the 0-100% Charge screen and the others is 4680's
@@EverydayChristhat didn’t answer the question tho!
I have the 2023 Model 3 and it said to charge 100% a minimum once a week. I top it off daily to 95-100%
How do I use your referral code I’m purchasing a new model Y tomorrow monday
4:09 the "miles" display is NOT based on anything other than the amount of charge the battery has. Driving habits and historical range are not a part of the display at all. Trip range, super charging planning, and the energy tab account for these things. But the "miles" shown by your battery are simply the number of Kilowatt-hours multiplied by some magical EPA number.
Whether you drive exclusively in school zones or do literally nothing but drag race, that number will never vary for any reason other than your actual state of charge.
6:33 this is now incorrect, as long as the car has power it will lower the windows the same as if you use the button. If there’s no battery power that’s when it will damage it
Best! Thanks man🙏
coolest Tesla Channel on TH-cam hands down. Coolest host too
I asked my friend to watch your video on Tesla maintenance and he decided to not buy the car! 🤣 he thinks he has to spend so much time on figuring out the car like a baby, so he is going for a gasoline limited RAV4. However, you are very knowledgeable about Tesla and better than Tesla service centers. 👋
haha its not for everybody
Good info and advice... thanks!
For the tire service i was told by my co workers that you only need to service your tires as far as flat tires or rotation only at tesla at it controls by the computer is this true? I heard too that once you get a flat tire it cost about 1k to replace 1 tire as they have to recalibrate everything and reprogram it to the computer?
Def not true. I went to Costco and Americas and so does everyone else no issues. Same with flats. Only if you use foam you need a new TPMs sensor
@@EverydayChris but if you ever get a flat tire and needs it to be replaced how much did you or will be paying? They told me 1k each per tire. Thank you
Have you got Starship ceramic tiles behind you?
Hey Chris, is it possible to use a HUD mini head display and the 7" rear display at the same time? I heard both of them connects to the rear computer connector so I don't know if you can piggy back both the HUD and rear display connector to the single rear connector.
haha that imnot sure about
Another Great informative video.
As a Tesla owner for the past 6 years. Don’t worry about none of this. Just do your thing. The biggest fear to Tesla owners is the battery. It is not that scary tho. Last week I replaced the battery on a friends car for total cost of $6,200. Easy job, cheap price considering the value added with the replacement battery. Good luck
Awesome!
How much did your friend drive before it died?
Chris you're awesome bro 16k miles and going strong ❤
This is BULLSh~T - a new battery is much more expensive. Go and research it before believing this lie. A new battery can cost more than the car is worth. And you will need a new battery sooner than you think. Best thing to do is lease a Tesla… and know that you are not ‘saving the planet’, as a new battery puts out as much CO2 as driving a gas car ~100,000 km.
Check your grammar bro. Don’t worry about none of this means worry about everything 🥴
I was on the fence about getting a Tesla… thank you for the video. Owning a Tesla seems like a pain on the neck.
Hey Chris, what if my power is down and I am heading downhill, won’t the regeneration top me up or at least keep my level up ?your advice seems to be aimed at people in the cooler and flatter places …
I live east of the Rockies in Colorado, and you can gain or at worst maintain your charge level when going downhill.
Those are some INSANE kw rates. Here in Minnesota, mine are 8.8cents in the winter and 10.4 cents in the summer.
Because the demand is not as high in Minnesota obviously lol
@@ryansong6290 demand is not as high as compared to where???
Awesome vid. How do you get to the usage prediction app?
It's on the tesla screen!
I’m seeing lot of irritating noise when I drive my Tesla YLR. Some of the parts or something always give moving noise on the roads. Especially if there are any low uneven roads. Did anyone face such issues? And tesla fixed them?? Thanks
I do have a models 3 long range and I have been looking for models x so what’s your suggestion for me 😊
Another great video. Thanks for that. The thing I am trying to figure out is if I only travel 10 miles day some weeks... so should I plug in at home everynight still?
Let it drain and sleep at different states or charge for battery calibration!
@@EverydayChris Thanks!!!
Hey Chris, excellent video with helpful information BUT you use DOUBLE NEGATIVES!! For example, you say, DON’T NOT use....This is a double negative and you repeat them throughout the video. If two negatives are used in one sentence, the opposite meaning may be communicated. I suggest you edit out the double negatives for the sake of clarity.
Good job Chris. Very informative.
Glad you enjoyed it!
The referral code, is that only good for new orders placed? Not in stock inventory? Is there a code or a click through link?

when I saw UCI's campus on your tesla map i took a double take. This guy is from OC! Its cool to see my alma mater on TH-cam

Where can i buy that ring to open mij car
I've only supercharged for 2 yrs and about 2x a week. I still have same battery mileage no problem
Some good reminders here. And the method for accessing the secret Service Menu!
Thanks.

If you don’t have a home charger how long can you leave your Tesla parked before having to charge it? I am gone three to six weeks at a time on my job.
I don't have a wall charger at home, my mom won't let me have it. She says it'll make the electrtic bill to high.
It will
Great tips - Tesla is actually coming to my home tomorrow to do our first tire rotation.
Nice let me know how it goes
@@EverydayChris our tire rotation went great day. The Tesla Service Tech arrived on time and it took about 15 minutes to rotate the tires. Cost was $65 and well worth it. He also checked the tire pressure and filled them up slightly as I was down to 40 -41 PSI back up to 42 PSI - A great Tesla Service experience today.
Hey Chris, I have a model 3 LFP. How low of battery percentage can i wait before charging? Thx
Same around 20!! No worries!
Very useful-Thanks slot
What tint do you have? It seems really reflective
Ceramic! Reflects heat and light the best
Hi Chris:
Have my 2022 X Plaid and have noticed when navigating to supercharger a couple of times it does not precondition the batteries. It tells me it is heating after connecting to charger. Is there a way or command to have the car precondition . Also when I go to Bucees in Daytona Beach it does not seem to now those chargers are there, They are fairly new so maybe that is the issue, Thanks,
hm might be too new? Does it say navigating to that supercharger? If so, might be the battery is warm enough already!
@@EverydayChris Makes sense the battery is warm enough already here in the sunshine state. Thanks
So this stuff makes you the Tesla mechanic. Pretty cool!
I have to say the not charging to 100 or going lower than 20 is ridiculous. So really in my 300 mile range I only have 180 that is actually usable that’s kind of garbage
I dont use the card key anymore but its in a holder on my keyring with the rest of house keys so its always on me anyways…
Thinking about buying a Model S Performance. Which is the best option 2018, 2019 0r 2020?
Newer is always better
Thanks Chris for these tips. Very detailed and fun to watch.
Maybe I'm misunderstanding it but you said don't completely charge your batter but then soon after said to leave the Tesla plugged in...would that not completely charge the battery or have a similar effect of fully charging the battery? Little confused here
You should set a charging ceiling (let's say 80%) to your Tesla with NMC battery so you can never "completely charge your battery" even if you leave your Tesla plugged in.
@@JohnFatCat I appreciate the reply. This makes sense, I'll be sure to do that.
In the fall winter and spring u can safely charge at a super charger
New sub and Tesla fan keep it up bro
Appreciate you
My 2023 Model 3 with LFP batteries recommends charging to 100% at least once a week. A lot of commenters do not address those differences. So many recommendations are wrong.
The constant SW updates would be great if the updates would make driving better. I have my tesla for a few years now and I think the driving automation is rather getting worse than better. I already shut down all automatic systems, just because they don't work as they should.
Hi, im 19, making less than 30k a year, how do i finance for a model 3/Y without losing everything
I didn’t forget to use your referral! Thanks to you I finally jumped in 2 days ago & got a Tesla. Thanks, Asian bro!! 😎
Woohoo
What do you mean let your car sleep?
deep sleep! so no sentry mode!
Wats up Chris. Good video bro.
Sup man thanks!
Great tips. Was wondering if you were going to discuss washing your car and only hand wash. Thoughts?
I have videos on that! even have one where the WIFE washes the car
@@EverydayChris ha I will look for it…
Hi Mr. I’m new in your page will you be suggestive for me so I want to do Uber black so which model will be best fitted within less cost ?? Will you reply please?
you can go with the 20 inch INDUCTION rims for less cost than the UBER performance!!
My tires rotation experience is pretty interesting with Tesla... For some reason, Tesla always say that my tires were good whenever they show up to do it. I got uncomfortable when it was over 12k and they still say that it did not need a rotation even though the manual stated to rotate them every 6k miles. I ended up taking them to a tire shop for them to rotate the tires there. I have a RWD M3 SR+
What weird haha
Maybe you don't drive a lot? Mine was, the guy was very friendly and looked at the tires for threads and asked how often do i drive the car. He said I did not need to rotate. Replace the O valve or someting for the trunk and there was no charge
I never rotate tires. Lol
@@eugeniustheodidactus8890 You will be replacing tires soon due to the weight of the battery pack :(
@Gremlin256 How many miles do you have on your Tesla?
Great clip! Thanks!
After my first incident (can't open car using my phone), i'm carrying a real Tesla access card in the wallet together will all other cards; ordered additional set of cards, program one extra and keeping at home.
BTW, if you have two Teslas, you can program access cards to work on any your car.
There are so many things to look out for! Sounds like only for the IT savvy but if you're not, there will be even more problems?!
I know lots of non tech savvy people with Tesla's.
Love your videos, but I need your help. I got into the secret service mode and poked around. Used the on screen prompt to exit service mode. All good. But now my iphone Tesla app says the car is in service mode and will not display all the normal app info. I have logged into of the app and turned the phone off. But I cannot get the app out of service mode.Any ideas?
Hi Chris, I solved the issues by deleting and reloading the app.
you have to go back to your car and exit the mode. look at the lower left and you'll see a small arrow icon and you hold that to get out of it!
Question Chris, does the fart sound both inside the car and outside as well? Me being the kind of guy I am would have a lot of fun with that when stopped at red lights and people in the cross walk. Also can you stream music from your phone to the stereo on bluetooth? Thank you. Oh, I just found your wifes channel, subbed, and rang the bell. Be safe.
Only in park now haha jt used to though
Great video!
Glad you enjoyed it
Great video Chris! Tesla should hire you to make such content.
haha thanks!
lfp is recommended to go 100%
Chris, When you were speaking about Predictive energy usage and range it left me with a question. Does Tesla's predictions take into account elevation changes? My Wife has a Volkswagen ID.4 and it struggles with planning charging stops in my area because it's not accounting for extra range loss due to the changes in elevation we have out here. Tesla software is so much further along than everyone else, I wonder if it has taken that into account.
Yes it does and winds and speeds
@@EverydayChris awesome. Thanks so much for the reply
