Buying a Tesla? Use My Link! geni.us/GoTesla
I have 3 kids (2 9 year olds and a 6 year old). I had a 2021 SR+ M3. My kids complained about the lack of space in the back seats. We still have all 3 in boosters. We sold the M3 and bought the 5 seat LR MY at the end of 2022. The kids like the space in the second row and we love the extra storage space.
Nice
This is the vid I have been looking for! Placed my order with the same exact configuration but had a hard time finding a video showing the red 7 row option and you answered all the questions I had about the vehicle 👌🏿. Great vid
Loved the video and you have an adorable family. It was very generous of you to share that with your subscribers and viewers. Thanks
You are so kind, and it was our pleasure!
Awesome video! We have a 7 seater model Y and with a baby on the way so this video was super helpful on what stroller would fit when traveling with 2 adults, a baby, and two dogs. We are actually getting the same brand of stroller, but the single stroller version instead of the double. It was great to be able to confirm the stroller will fit in the trunk before we purchase it!
Nice touch with your family included in this review. Makes for a better demonstration and warm presentation. Keep them in mind when you do your next video.
you got it! yeah its way more fun for sure :) plus they're way more talented than I :)
Good review... love the supporting cast ! :)
Great video. Thank you for sharing.
We got our model y in 2021 red LR 7 seater before the crazy gas prices went up. And we’re happy having it til now. We’re of Filipino descent so we dont take up so much space. If we have 3 visitors. 3 kids seating perfectly on the 2nd row and mommas on the 3rd I love it. We’re on our 35k miles!!!
That’s a beautiful car wow!! Appreciate the thoroughness of your review. Your kids are adorable.
What an awesome review, thank you!
It looks like the ground clearance is the same on the Model Y as the Model 3. My only issue with my 2020 LR Model 3 is lack of air shocks to raise the car when driving into steep parking garages here in the city. The scraping sound on the bottom plastic isn't pleasant and happens more often than I would like.
I have a 15 month old and a second one on the way. I didn't think we would benefit from a 7-seater, but after seeing this video I'm thinking it might be a good idea. I usually drive & my wife sits in the backseat with my 1 year old in their carseat. With a second car seat, a 7-seater might be our answer.
Once the kids get older we can always consider selling it. Thank you!
Thanks Ricky. Glad the rain has stopped for you folks.
hey Shaun thank you so much, it appears the worst is behind us and the sun is back out. I appreciate you!
Loving the family involvement!
Great video man, very compelling argument for the 3rd row variant. I’m curious what your experience is like with the USS / parking sensors missing, any issues? Thanks again for a great review!
GREAT VIDEO bro! excellent explanation, great use of family and well done! I ordered my 7 seater after seeing your original video showing the spacing. Like you said, it's no full size SUV but it definitely works. Now that the Model Y is selling at a price close to what it's really worth, seems like a no brainer to buy now! I feel bad for everyone that paid over $70k for theirs
We did get more or less 70k 2 years but with add ons, color, tow hitch, 7 seater and fsd.
@@girlfromthepast2233 With FSD? that's a good deal! How has the FSD performance been on the highway?
@@KeemReviewz There's no air vents in the 3rd row of the Model Y, keep that in mind.
Great choice. We have the same but midnight silver and Gemini wheels. I absolutely love it
Right on!
Man, you’ve got some adorable kids.
Thank you ☺️
thank you Jason, so kind of you to say !
Is that a Yoruba name given to one of them? If so, are you related to that culture in any way? Just curious. Ohh, yeah they were very helpful and adorable.
The 7 seater looks quite practical even to move adults family or colleagues to a grill party or any short distance trip, kids will sit comfortably back there!
I would add the hitch from Tesla, then you could put a bike rack or a kayak carrier on and really increase the functionality. After market hitches are cheaper, but there is considerable removing of panels necessary and i don't know about integration with brake lights and turn signals.
Beautiful family and great car. Best of luck!!!
Thanks so much!
Awesome family, enjoy the Model Y with your boys, they grow fast.
they do... we're trying to soak it up ... cheers!
Happy with my Tesla Solar setup. No microinverters, it's all string, but sun is unimpeded. So happy.
The red looks badass. I think I'm sold on the Y-Long Range Red.
ENGINEERS ROCK! This review is very helpful.
Awesome video. / 1st video I’ve seen, instant sub. 🎉
thank you so much Tony, i need to check out your channel too.. looking forward to seeing you around the comments! cheers
@@TwoBitDaVinci so kind of you. Your reply has given me some needed encouragement for my channel. Thank you.
@@TwoBitDaVinci , thanks so for your message. It was timely encouragement for me. I just posted and will do so more regularly. I hope you and your family have a great rest of your weekend. 😃
In Japan they have a market segment for basically 'mini-MPVs' (mini-mini-vans) that fit a similar bill - 3 row seating for 7 or 8 depending on the model. They're not crossovers by any measure, more like tall station wagons w/ a 3rd row. Honda Freed, Toyota Sienta are the most popular two. Since they're blockier, you don't have the problem with the sloping rear glass hitting adults in the head in the back.
Unfortunately nothing in this segment will be EV any time soon unfortunately, although they do have mild hybrid variants (not even plug in though...)
Great video, very detailed!
Agree on the R1S as being a much more ideal size - especially since we also have 2 dogs. Seriously considered it when we needed to replace our gl 450 but the Y was 1) readily available - got it in 2months vs waiting another year+ and doubted our old car could make it, 2) charging - supercharger as well as also already having the Tesla wall charger installed since we already had a 3 -also drove across country when we moved to Cleveland with the dogs and supercharger network was seamless - only wish the Y had like a 400miles rated range giving closer to 300 real world range and 3) autopilot- It drove 99% of my solo + dogs cross county trip (wife and kiddo flew and visited family while I needed to get there to meet our movers). It performed flawlessly and saved me a couple of times when I didn’t have enough caffeine.
Excellent report.
We're 6 in total. I'm thinking I'd only utilize one of the seats in the 3rd row and keep the other one folded. That way I'd have way more luggage space if I were to drive to my holiday destination.
Great video! Thank you!
You bet!
Wonderful video thank you 👍
Thx for sharing. It looks like a great car. My suggestion for Tesla is to change the small windows behind the rear doors to 'bullet proof' glass as that is where the thieves gain access to the interior.
brilliant idea!
@@TwoBitDaVinci mabe you can whisper it into the right ears? 😜
Great video! Is that the standard Tesla red, or a custom paint job? It looks very different (better!) than the red in the design studio on the Tesla website.
Sounds like there’s a sales opportunity here to make these kinds of strollers that specifically fit in these vehicles because volume wise, that big stroller should be able to actually fit in back, and the same thing could be said for the smaller stroller in either position. I’m actually kind of surprised with how many tests there are now that there aren’t bespoke designed equipment of all types including strollers, folding tables and chairs, I’m sure there’s other things I can’t think of right now for the specific space for each of the storage areas and all the different Tesla models.
We use our pockit + all city much more (folds up and super compact with the ability to take it onto a plane). Our nuna mixx just sits in storage collecting dust.
going to pass that recommendation on, my wife loves strollers!
LMAO Ricky! You having to slouch in the far back seat is how I sit in most car's front seats. Rentals are a pain. They simply don't comprehend until I walk in to pick one up. Then, the looks on their faces is both priceless and alarming.
The best picture of me in a car is with my head sticking through the sun roof on the way to lunch in a co-worker's car.
haha! i'd want to see that picture... are you really tall?
@@TwoBitDaVinci My wife would say I am "torso impaired". I will see if I can find the pic.
@@TwoBitDaVinci Found it and sent it.
Nice upgrade for the family 👍🏻. The hatch segment reminded me to ask you to do a video on EV spare tires. I'm looking at adding a Modern Spare but concerned on where to store it. No room in my PHEV under the boot lid. Comments I've seen on Teslas with the spare strapped in the back say it's not safe, it will be a projectile in an accident. I'm looking at roof rack or trailer hitch mounting, pros and cons to both.
hey David, i've NEVER thought about spares ... until recently... we drove the new car back from 100 miles away in pouring rain, and there were lots of accidnets. my wife driving the old model 3, git some debris and got a flat. maybe a flat repair kit?
We have had 3 flats with ours so far. The 1st one was a blow out on the freeway coming home from a road trip. Tesla sent a van with a spare (1 hour drive to us). The 2nd was just after leaving the beach and we pulled over and got the same treatment from Tesla. Then a Mobil repaired brought our rim and a new tire back. The 3rd was in a maul parking lot and this time Tesla, after an hour, told us we needed to get towed home or to a repair shop. We were already upset then AAA truck broke down 5 minutes away from us. Turned into a 4 hour delay to get us and the car home. AAA was not Tesla’s fault, but I complained to Tesla that they didn’t take care of us as they told us we then had to tow the car to a repair shop. They agreed to send Mobil repair who was great and repaired the tire.
I would prefer to have a spare even just an emergency tire we could limp home on.
@@TwoBitDaVinci I got very interested while waiting for AAA for over an hour to tow my PHEV 1/4 mile to Discount Tire. I didn't have the tire repair kit that was supposed to come with the car (and they have some downsides).
@@jonathanbrown2407 Same here. I was luckily only a 1/4 mile away from Discount Tire when I got a puncture at 65 mph on the freeway. But nothing I could do except wait for flat-bed tow truck. That could be really bad depending on when and where it happens, and the weather conditions.
Ricky, thank you introducing your awesome family. And also, that’s one gorgeous car!! Love it in red
Alex thank you so much!
Safety !!! Does the rear trunk bounce back up if it sense something is too bulky or if an arm is in the way?
Are there AC vents for the 3rd row? For many 3rd row option cars AC vents aren’t available since it’s an addition to the platform instead of engineering it as a 3rd row vehicle. This includes the 2022 Mercedes GLE we bought recently but didn’t know about the lack of AC as no one had any to demo before we bought ours.
I’m might be following in your footsteps. I have somewhat the same family profile as you(wife w/ 4 year old and newborn) and just watching this review inches me closer and closer to going for the 7 seater.
What type of home charging would you recommend? Im new to Tesla and so I’m open to what will be best for a single family home but no garage scenario. Been following you for a few years now on TH-cam. Great review and thanks.
hey Mike! first check if you have an electric dryer in the garage, if you do, you can just get a small unit that splits it and chargers the car when you're not doing laundry... that's the cheapest... then getting a NEMA-14-50 240V plug would be second cheapest, and third would be a charger installed. but since tesla stopped giving out chargers when you buy it... its something to think about early ... if you in California I'd recommend GoEV www.goevsandiego.com ... they have other sites too
@@TwoBitDaVinci awesome, thanks. FYI, I put in my order this past weekend for a MY 7 seater. Delivery is Feb-April, hopefully it’s March….🤞
Man this is pretty impressive. We have a Highlander Hybrid and there’s no way I’d even think of trying to get back there in the 3rd row, even for a test… and I’m only slightly taller bigger/than you are.
yeah I'm guessing if a highlander is too small for you this is even smaller... but if you have a variety of sizes in the family, odds are someone can fit back there at least for short distances!
Hi, great review! Would you compare with BYD E6 ? That’s more like a 3 row minivan
Wish we had the 7 seat option in the UK. Still considering the 5 seat for the extra width and hatch though
Same here. Tried the merc eqb. Zero storage with the 3rd row seats up. No frunk. Not even a location to store a larger phone.
THANKS RICKY,🤗🎉🎉🎉CONGRATS ON YOUR MODEL Y,YOUR SOLAR SYSTEM AND YOUR CUTE CHILDREN 🤗💚💚💚
thank you !
@@TwoBitDaVinci SORRY 🤷♂️ I FORGOT TO MENTION YOUR LOVELY WIFE 🤭😁💚💚💚
Don’t forget, Rivian or anything else, no Supercharger network.
Oh- you just added that at the end. It’s a very BIG issue with all the others.
Oh, also I nearly forgot, two of our sons have Model Y’s and I am blown away at their efficiency.
agreed... its a little lower than the 3 from what I'm seeing so far, but for a 7 seater EV ... its absolutely amazing
We have a Nuna mixx and while it’s a nice stroller the thing is huge. Hate traveling with it so we got a HB pockit+ all city - so much more compact. I prefer our Y for school drop off vs our 3 due to the bigger door and not hitting my daughter’s head like the 3. The other advantage of Y over X besides the much lower price is the ability to put a roof rack and aero cargo box - it does impact range but if you keep it ~70mph it’s bearable.
I hadn't thought about that, but right no roof racks on the X! interesting... recommendation for a aero box?
We have an older Thule evolution bought off of Craigslist ~10 years ago for $75 that we previously used on our GL450 (originally thought we would only use it once for an extended family road trip but have since used it at least a couple times a year). If I had to get one a new one today, the skybox 12 would be my top pick. We also have the hitch on our Y which has also come in handy (recommend getting an easier access cover from Amazon since getting the oem cover off is a real pain). We’ve had both the cargo box and a hitch tray (harbor freight) on for trips carrying several inflatable paddle boards, inflatable 12ft boat with an electric outboard motor) when we took a trip to sun river Oregon with a kiddo and two dogs along with all the things they need. It’s surprising how much you can fit into a Y but a cargo box and hitch ( for a tray or bike rack) comes in handy.
Ricky, @4:10 that's a _Shiplap_ of PV Panels installation
Thanks for the review:
Would you address one issue that is important for me: How does your Model Y compare to your Model 3 in the bumpiness department? I am talking about shock absorption, the other major factor in the comfort/luxury consideration in addition to the quietness of the ride?
And, besides the OP, I would also appreciate comments from anyone with experience/opinions on the matter
Thanks again
I was looking for the same. The ride is very important to me. I do not like a "Sporty Ride". I want a 1970s Caddy ride. I have an SUV now that I think is kind of rough.
For a modern day mid tier vehicle, I thought the ride quality is quite harsh. It’s definitely more of a driver’s car than it is a passenger’s. It was a deal breaker for me and I’ll wait til this issue is addressed before buying the y.
You are awesome. Beautiful family. God has blessed you.
more than I deserve to be sure... thanks for the kind words, and God bless you!
Great video, with true objective views. Enjoy
Did you have to adjust the alignment of your frunk at all? My wife just got hers and one side sits up slightly compared to the passenger fender. Need to look into it more and check your more recent videos to see if you had to make any service requests or adjustments.
Happy for the Roy family. Congrats! I look forward to seeing how being a two Tesla family works out with your solar power installation. I really think that Tesla should start to offer bi-directional charging as an option. They have some of the largest batteries in the industry and except for occasional road trips most of the battery goes unused.
Well done.👍🏼
If there are two car seats in the middle row, can you still access the third row or will the car seat need to be removed first?
I own a MY with the 5 seat configuration and my wife owns one with the 7 seat configuration. When traveling for vacation with our 3 kids we usually take my car because we can fit more luggage. For everything else either car is fine. Because of the armrests for the 3 row, the rear cargo area is a little bit narrower in the 7 seat Model Y.
Her car has the tow hitch and roof racks. We take hers when going skiing or kayaking.
If I had to replace my car, I would definitely go with the 7 seat configuration. Having those 2 extra seats is better than gaining a little bit more space in my opinion.
wow that's great feedback, I didn't realize the armrest ate into the space! thanks for sharing that, good information people should know. yeah you give up a bit, but if you have kids i think its pretty valuable
@@TwoBitDaVinci Here is another piece of information. Contrary to the 5 seat configuration which has a second row that can't be moved, the second row in the 7 seat configuration can be moved. When carrying groceries or any other small items, with the 3rd row down, make sure to move the 2nd row all the way back touching the 3rd row to prevent items from falling in between the gap between the 2nd and 3rd row. Sometimes items roll or move during transport and when you come to a quick stop those items could potentially fall in between those two seats. If it happens most of the times those items end up under the second row seats and can potentially roll to the driver's feet.
long distances w/ 3 kids in the same row must be a real pain!
@@xiaoka It could be. After many years of taking long trips as a family we've figured out what works for us to make the trip enjoyable. We have quiet time which they use to read their books, use their phones, look at the scenery and we also have playtime (all kinds of trivia, guess the word, license plate games, etc..) Also sometimes we drive without an overnight stop so they just sleep in between charging stops.
But when we have trips in which we don't bring too much luggage, we take the 7 seat car, bring one of 3rd row seats up and let one of them sit there. It makes the trip more comfortable for them.
@@acolon8999 How hot does it get in that 3rd row? There's no air vents back there. I imagine it gets pretty stuffy.
Awesome video! The one request I’d have since this is a review specifically of a 7 seater is that what does the rear look like, how easy is it fold up when not in use, and how much space do you gain when you do? You mentioned you’d only be using these seats for when the parents visit so since they won’t be in use most of the time, I’d imagine the seats would be folded and you’d regain some additional room with access from the rear.
absolutely with the third row folded down, its not too different (you lose a smaller second under floor compartment)... and very capable! you don't lose much which is amazing
@@TwoBitDaVinci So yet another reason to buy a 7 seater actually. While you lose the small under floor compartment specifically to where the last seats anchor, you regain the cargo space which assumingly remains accessible from the rear and then that monstrosity (LOL) of a stroller actually fits when Grandma and Grandpa aren't riding with you.
@@dorknob69 don't forget the sliding 60/40 2nd row can give you aven more (!!!) trunk space and the seats recline more than the 5 seater and 2x25watt power USB-C in the 3rd row is always accessible... I only wish they kept the heated seats as some early VIN 7 seaters had. Also, because the 2nd row is power actuated, young kids can easily slide and exit the 2nd row without adult help/strength. Also @280wh/mile (2 years 30k miles tested) this is the most efficient 7 seater by a mile.
Great video and family. How is the ride compared to prior model y’s, and how is the assembly quality?😊
@@ChaimLoecher There's no air vents in the 3rd row though.
Love my Ylr, but I gotta disagree on the noise. I've never been in one without the noise reduction, but I find it to be pretty loud. Took it on a road trip from OK to Florida and I felt it was about the same as my old Mazda. Audio was awesome though
Tow hitch on model Y is also useful
SOUND SYSTEM IS VERY IMPORTANT TO ME 🤗😁as my name implies 😊
i'd love your opinion of the Y.. . i love music but I'm not an audiophile yet... lol i think it sounds superb
@@TwoBitDaVinci ENJOY IT 🤗 for now RICKY … when I get to hear 👂one …I will let you know 😎💚💚💚
Thank you
Great video! I really like the idea of this 7 seater for occasional use with adults in second row and kids in third. My concern however is safety of the third row in case of a rear end accident. Looks like occupants are essentially sitting in the trunk! I wonder how much crumple zone there is left to absorb the impact and protect little ones during rear impact. Especially high speed accidents > 40 MPH.
there’s about as much rom behind the third row as any other 3rd row vehicle. Looks at the third row of a minivan for example… but you should always do what you feel is safe!
Tesla rear end takes semi hits well
Congratulations family!!!! This is a great car indeed. I’ve owned a MYP for the last 7 months and I’m super happy with the car, stupid acceleration and top speed. Charging experience par to none, never had range anxiety, already put 11K miles all on road-trips summer and winter - and the heat pump works miracles. Very little range loss due to cold weather, living in Oregon where we have colder winters (than SoCal) and snow , tons of mountain pass and even with that range is beyond what I expected.
Congrats again man ! 🎉
oh the MYP is crazy fast yeah, but doesn't have the 7 seat option. but what a car!
love the video man, thanks. I have two young kids, exact same situation in that I have a mazda Cx5 now but want more seats when parents come and want EV. I have Rivian R1s preorder (quad motor preorder price 76K) arriving late this year or early next year. Would you rather have the Rivian R1s at 76K or the Tesla model Y 7 seater at the new price drop of 53K.....
Great review.
Thanks for taking time to write, I appreciate it, cheers!
Wonderful family
Great points! I agree 100% with this being the best family EV right now. I’m in the same boat with 2 kids, a model 3, and 7-seater model Y on order.
nice! what spec did you go with?
@@TwoBitDaVinci I kept it simple with the base long range in white and the only upgrade being the third row
Great review and kids are adorable!! I have booked same colour 7 seated Tesla with Gemini wheels. Have you done full body PPF? It’s so shiny.. do you happen to know if colour fades gradually without PPF?
we did a PPF on our model 3, and I'm thinking nothing fancy on this one. Just wash and wax it once in a while, and keep it garaged. I think you'll be fine without, but a good PPF is always a good investment, but its expensive, and I can't spend anymore money lol
How was the suspension? I heard it is firm suspension not like other SUV’s on market. Whereas X has air suspension.
Is there any heated seats at the 3rd row?
Love the car, love the channel, and what a lovely family
Thanks so much... being on TH-cam can be pretty brutal and exhausting, so please never underestimate how amazing it is to hear a comment like yours. it just made my day... thank yoU!
Luckily, stroller space isn't a concern for me. Both my 3yo and 6yo have wanted nothing to do with them since they could walk decently well. It can be a little inconvenient sometimes, but I do not miss having to lug those big things around.
yeah I hear that, although our travel stroller in the frunk is clutch
@@TwoBitDaVinci That's such a great idea! I remember the stroller days, and having one on you is a necessity for sure.
Can you put (or borrow) 2 booster seats into the rear
Then a rear facing car seat middle row
And then 2 & 3 adults
That would be awesome to do for us and others!!!
When's the Tesla passenger van coming though?!... Thank you for the review!
Great video!!!
Thank you Jonathan!
Great video. Quick question: would you consider switching to the X when your kids get older or if your family gets larger (more kids)? We have 3 boys - 2 older sons at 5’8”ish and a small 10 year old now - and are debating between the Y and X. Your thoughts? Thanks!
Does the 3rd row seat have heated seat?
Your kids are adorable. It was fun just watching them be kids. Was this video about something? Were you in it at all? 😊
lol... I wanted to share why this car in particular was so appealing to us... there's like NOTHING even in gas cars, this compact with a 3rd row... its pretty special and a masterclass of interior packaging... hoping it helped! thank you for the kind words and being a subscriber too :) i appreciate you!
Great Dad energy!
haha ... dad energy is a combination of sleeplessness and being infinitely entertained by your kids :) I appreciate you!
I never been very keen on a red car because it looks like Im gonna fight a fire, Plus I work right next to a rail track and I was told by a rail employee I'm not allowed to park a red car anywhere near the rail tracks, something to do with danger, never bothered me, Plus never liked dark wheels ,bit dull.. Totally cool car though, way cooler than my little Renault Zoe.
Got 3 kids and 3 rear facing car seats and so I'm wondering how it's like getting kids into the third row into the car seats.
I'm imagining that for rear facing, I'd need to load them in differently than if the car seats are forward facing.
Curious to hear your thoughts.
Your y has matrix lights. Do you mind sharing where it was built and how are they compared to the reflector m3.
Following up on it, did you get the new 5mp cameras, soft suspension and amd ryzen. If you can do a hardware review it will greatly help. Im waiting on my y 7.
The real problem is airflow and cooling for 3rd row. Need some fans + shade for rear glass...
Can you measure the 2row seat width between M3 and MY?
Can you fold the 3rd row down to have more trunk space when not being utilized?
I think you left out the most important part, especially nowadays with us. This inflation exactly the breakdown of the price.
How is the AC for the 2nd & 3rd row? Do they have dedicated vents? If so, are they on the ceiling or somewhere else?
3rd row there is no AC 😂
It's been something like 6 or 8 months since the Model 3 long range has been unavailable for me to renew my lease. I def have no desire for a Model Y, but might be forced to go with something else and am considering the ionic 6.
Congrats, as they say...timing is everything! Probably happy you waited for a year with price drop and $7500 credit eligibility?
On your prior 7 seater you had the white interior and current you went black interior. Currently debating between the two. Did you have any issues with your white interior? Was it just color preference with the red color to go black?
We have a red Model 3 with a white interior. We have young kids and dogs and the white is surprisingly easy to clean! Even after a puke from the 8 year old the first month we owned it... ew. And, the white looks amazing. Go with whatever color you prefer for sure!
Hi there, a question for you regarding rear trunk cargo cover over the trunk space. Does the 7 seater comes with cargo cover? I know at times we fold rear seats and use model y as 5 seater in that case cargo cover is needed. Please let me know. Btw beautiful family Mr.Roy
No rear cover for the 7 seater. The 7 seater adds arm rests instead of the rear cover. If you have the need for 7 but don't want a massive Tahoe this is the EV to go for !
Oh😮 I didn't know the ModelY was a little wider than the Model3. 🎉
I’m debating hard between this in the model X because of the third row. The only thing that scares me is the model X looks so complicated and might be a maintenance headache when it’s out of warranty.
Cool video getting a 7 seater too , we’re small people (Filipino) with our 2 year old daughter the 3 is getting small and our 2016 S is a dinosaur 🦖 lol .
Gets my thumbs up 👍
I think you'll love the Y 7 seater... good call!
Your camera (or post processing) has the same glitch Tesla cams do. It makes red look orange.
A huge thing I wished you added to this video was how safe the vehicle is. This thing will keep you safe in the event of a very serious accident. Not only will it save your life but it will reduce the chances of significant injury.
I have to agree, I was kind of waiting for that point to be brought up but I have to say all in all this is the most likable down to earth guys I’ve seen on any of the dozens of Tesla videos I’ve watched over the years. His information is always spot on and he is just a very normal, although extremely bright person to follow. Cool family too
I wish we have a 7-seater MY in Australia.
Hi, the Tesla Model Y 7-seater is the first Tesla I ordered, the very day it was announced. Months later, when I finally test-drove it with my spouse + 3 kids (11, 13, 19 years old), it became obvious that the 2nd row was too cramped for them to coexist. There was fighting almost right away. If not for that, it would have been a contender. Our needs for many seats is mostly in town (grandparents coming over, all 7 of us want to go somewhere) or there's a soccer practice or kids birthday party. However, for longer roadtrips, with 5+ people _and_ their luggage, this car is just too small. So, we got the Model X, back when it was $75K or so, and haven't looked back. It can sit 5 or 6 people comfortably _and_ haul some decent amount of luggage. There's just a few more inches in every direction.
sounds like you thought it through, yeah the Model X is a great next step up, and it sounds like you got a good deal
