Hey Andy, been watching your videos for a while and I also live near Louisville. I'm picking up my model 3 this week! You said you got your front wrapped for paint protection. Wondering where you got it done at and if you recommend that place?
Excellent video Andy. Thank you. Is there an issue with the screen brightness when night driving? Is there some type of auto dim feature like on cell phones?
First video of yours I've seen. - very clear audio - clear and concise sentences without unnecessary jargon - very thorough review - good production quality Thank you sir
Went to a Tesla dealership the other week for a test drive. We were given half an hour to take it for a spin, but because it’s such a different car from anything we’re used to it took 10 minutes just getting acquainted with it before feeling comfortable enough to start driving! So much to learn, but I’m excited and looking forward to owning one!
Your channel and Tesla videos have become my 'go to' resource and an EV bible to fuel by brain with knowledge as I am getting closer to ordering a Model 3 Performance. For me this is a humongous choice that must be attentive and wisely made with timing being everything. THANK YOU Andy for your professionalism and detailed video productions that I always eagerly anticipate!! And I look forward to seeing you in the next one.
This remains a handy, dandy intro for new Tesla owners, only proviso is that much of the touchscreen section has changed due to a Christmas(?) 2021 over the air (OTA) update to the cars' software. Tesla typically has an end of year major OTA update, and several minor ones throughout the year. The OTA is really a neat feature because what other car company keeps improving your car after purchase the way Tesla does. The late 2021 OTA substantially changed the look and interface of the touchscreen. It may take a little getting used to but a handy tip is to get familiar with voice commands, it is a much safer way, when driving, of accomplishing most of the touchscreen commands without taking your eyes off the road.
You, iPhone 11 Pro, Wife iPhone 8. Well played! I always end up with the hand me down.... Awesome Video, Tesla should hire you or at least give you royalty for this video.
Thanks for the tutorial! I rented a Model 3 over the weekend before Thanksgiving. I have owned a 2015 Nissan Leaf for 6 years and I look forward to driving the Model 3.
The reason you don't push down on the badge for the front trunk, is that there are likely screws or some other hardware which connect the badge to the vehicle. Pushing this causes those parts to dig into the body. Hence the reason, Tesla advises to push away from the badge. This applies to other vehicles also, I've seen it on the Ammo NYC channel on a Porsche.
I tried going online to get car, they said 10 months, I'm like no, met a guy and I ordered the car Tuesday and got it Saturday. That boy came thruuuuuu
You would think that Tesla would have a sensor to switch on the demisting fan without you continually having to turn it on and off. Also what's the deal with burying the lights in a submenu on the touchscreen? What the hell is that? Nice of them to put the indicators on the stalk, but burying turning your lights on at night in the touchscreen?? While you're driving? Or do you have to stop the car to scroll through the submenus so you can turn the headlights on?
I took delivery of model 3 on New Year Eve and this video was super helpful I don't see a link for the clear film for the front of the car can you provide information on that please.
Although you drive on the wrong side of the road (!), this video has easily been the best that I've seen thus far in explaining so much about the M3. I'm impatiently awaiting picking my M3LR up in three weeks' time!
Great video as usual. Happy New Year! May I ask why you charge daily to 80%? I have seen some people say it is better to charge at 90% daily to maximize the battery.
Excellent video. As a new owner of a Model Y, this is extremely informative. There is a negative point which I wish you would discuss is the inability to allow change to larger fonts that a lot of seniors are stuggling to read the tiny fonts on the screen.
Andy, l can't wait for you to do a CYBRTRK review! Counting the days___my prediction is first CT out of TESLA TEXAS end of June 2021. Yep!.....6 months to GO! . Watch this space!
Andy, can you ask the car to ‘chime’ as you leave and it locks the doors? If not, I would feel better knowing it’s locked if I do it. Can you lock the doors from touch screen as you leave?
Andy, great video! One small nit: I've noticed in a handful of your videos that you mention a "feature" of tesla vehicles is changing the gear if you are going less than 5 mph. While that is true, that feature is available in most vehicles. My 1998 mercury mountaineer can do this, as well as my 1998 toyota corolla. Just FYI. Cheers~
Hi Andy Time to Update to S/W version 11 with Chtistmas Show and automaticlly show blind spots on?screen with furn Signal which I frequently share with those new to Teslas.
if Tesla's came out with a more affordable car maybe i would look in too it. the used ones on the site still go for 38,000. even with the savings of gas i still couldn't afford a loan for a car like that. Especially a used car
In FSD mode, if you see a drunk driver behind you coming up fast while swerving between lanes, what will the Tesla do? Will it make way, will it pull over and stop? What choices are preprogrammed into it for these types of situations?
Thanks, Andy. Ordered Nov 2021, current delivery estimate is Jul-Aug. I am really getting cold feet. My concern is service 50 miles away. What do I do if they need to keep it and they don't have loaners? I hear lots of horror stories. I'm 73, might be too old for this.
PS to put on the parking brake just press the park button for 2 seconds. I think he missed that. [This is for my 2021 model 3. I assume it's the same for the previous models].
@@Yggdrasil42 mine doesn't engage with a simple press. I have to press it for about 2 seconds to get the parking brake on. If I simple press it just goes into park without engaging the parking brake.
Do the outside mirrors include a bend in them so that you can see beyond merely a straight edge mirror? (I am not referring to the normal warning that "things in the mirror may look bigger/smaller/closer or further away than they actually are".)
Thank you for the great video. One question, is there a way to set "dummy" cruise control? It the front is full of snow it is no longer possible to turn on the cruise control.
Nope this is one of my big complaints about Tesla cruise control. They don't allow "dumb" cruise control that only sets the speed. It's either TACC (traffic aware cruise control) or Autopilot/FSD which all rely on camera visibility.
1st of thanks for the guide. But I have 1 question: since we can have 2 profiles on the car related to each one's cell (me and my wife) is it also possible than the profile or each one to be in a different language or to both profiles have to share the same language? I know we can change display language and also navigation language but I never saw anyone that explained if having 2 languages is possible or not. Thanks
22:04 My new 2021 Model 3 doesn't appear to have the setting for Regenerative Braking. It don't mind the default setting, but it's surprising that they would remove the option to change it.

Hi Andy, I think you said you’d include a link for the radar detector but I can’t see it. Could you post it?
It's listed on my Kit here: geni.us/tm3accs
It's also on Amazon here: geni.us/SoloS4
You didn’t leave a link to the radar detector. Shocker.

I am going to do that once I can get a car but I am going to save up for it as soon as possible
This should be the standard learning video shown to all tesla drivers. Great job
Thanks Sami!
Agreed!
Yea, I watched it all the way through and even skipped back several times. Very clear explanations.
Thanks Andy.

5 min into this video, i learned more then the sales person did at 30 min when picking up the car.
Tnx for a great instruction video

Our limo company just bought a 2021 Tesla Model Y. I appreciate the indepth walk through
Have a model 3 ordered and very excited!!! Thanks for all the information.
That was extremely useful , covering and explaining every single option and detail
This video is extremely helpful!! I will certainly reference back to this.
You, iPhone 11 Pro, Wife iPhone 8. Well played! I always end up with the hand me down....
Awesome Video, Tesla should hire you or at least give you royalty for this video.
Thank you so much for this. Tesla should send this link to all future owners.
I can't say no more, you covered it all. WE are convinced to purchase a model Y. Thank you so much for all the details. Great video too!!
Thanks for the tutorial! I rented a Model 3 over the weekend before Thanksgiving. I have owned a 2015 Nissan Leaf for 6 years and I look forward to driving the Model 3.
Cheers for you in-depth video, picking up my Tesla on Tuesday and this has put my mind at rest…superb matey thank you.
Saving this for when I take delivery of my Y in December/January!
I saw some A Day to Remember ;)
Subscribed.
Came to the comments to say the same thing xD
This video is by far the best explained video for a guide especially when getting to know your new Tesla THANK U
Thanks Tina!

13:49 i would advise to black out vin nr and other important info
Andy, can you ask the car to ‘chime’ as you leave and it locks the doors? If not, I would feel better knowing it’s locked if I do it. Can you lock the doors from touch screen as you leave?
Great video. I've been reading the owners manual for a month now, and I still picked up a few new things. Tempted now to spring for FSD. Thanks.

great job Andy loved it thanks for taking the time
I don't even have any car I don't know why am watching this with full interest however tomorrow is my exam paper but am watching this video instead ;/
Really good video. Thanks

I think that this is the perfect car. Really
"the door handles are one handed by the way...." have we been tasked with using both hands to open our car doors? -_-
Great video! I am gonna pick up my Model 3 this week. Is the merge, lane change on highway an Autopilot feature or FSD? Thanks!
If you could go back in time would you have done a full xpel wrap or just the front still??? I am trying to decide what to do! Thanks!
Excellent tutorial Andy!
Can you play your content (movies, etc..) off line, from your USB stick, or your phone in AVI format?
Very informative, Thank you!
3:39 "the way to close this is kind of weird"
Like a normal bonnet/hood 🤔
Getting my Tesla 2021 3 next week. Can I plug my charger in the dryer plug?
Thanks, Andy. Ordered Nov 2021, current delivery estimate is Jul-Aug. I am really getting cold feet. My concern is service 50 miles away. What do I do if they need to keep it and they don't have loaners? I hear lots of horror stories. I'm 73, might be too old for this.

Hmm, I also have a 2021 model 3 and I think it automatically enables the parking brake on a simple press of the Park button.
@@Yggdrasil42 mine doesn't engage with a simple press. I have to press it for about 2 seconds to get the parking brake on. If I simple press it just goes into park without engaging the parking brake.

The Best Tesla video
Very cool and nice vid., i know everything how to operate a TESLA, now i need only money to buy one :)
Awesome
Video bro, thanks so much
Need one for FSD
Great video!! I just got my tesla recently and this video is very informative! :-)
Congrats and glad it was helpful!
Bravo Andy you do a great jog - I love it.
Great information thanks
I really wish autopark would come to regular autopilot.
When will Telsa have level 5 autonomous driving?
Do you ever experience “random” dramatic slow down while driving on EAP or TACC?
Yes it’s called phantom braking and it’s the worst side effect of Tesla Autopilot/FSD
Thank you for the great video. One question, is there a way to set "dummy" cruise control? It the front is full of snow it is no longer possible to turn on the cruise control.
Nope this is one of my big complaints about Tesla cruise control. They don't allow "dumb" cruise control that only sets the speed. It's either TACC (traffic aware cruise control) or Autopilot/FSD which all rely on camera visibility.
@@aslye Hi Andy, Thanks for the fast reply!
Thank you
I notice that Tesla's don't have spare tires. What do you do if you get a flat tire?
Likely, Tesla roadside assistance, or you could always install run flats prior.
WOW..I want one....even if I have to sell my first born ....I am going to get one
Do the different driving modes not affect the hardness of the suspension?
1st of thanks for the guide. But I have 1 question: since we can have 2 profiles on the car related to each one's cell (me and my wife) is it also possible than the profile or each one to be in a different language or to both profiles have to share the same language? I know we can change display language and also navigation language but I never saw anyone that explained if having 2 languages is possible or not. Thanks
Nice video.
Will be nice if you can be little slow, thanks
Very nice. Can you do on module s too. ?
If there is 130 km allowed, could I go 100 km by Autopilot ?
Nice ride here
love cherry red Tesla

Like your glovebox pin 😂
So helpful
what do you mean reboot?
Where did you get that steering wheel?
Nice presentation.
I rented a model Y for a trip last week & sure wish I would have seen this video before I left!
What do have to own to be able to do summon?
6969 is your glove box code? You freaks 🤣
How can I get the cameras for my car now that am located in Kenya
What about air conditioning
Do you prefer the model X or Y?
