Crap I just looked at the Tesla Inventory website. This is what I found: 2021 Model Y Model Y Long Range Dual Motor All-Wheel Drive 21,790 mile odometer Tampa, FL $81,300

I have a one-year old MYLR 5-seat/w trailer hitch, midnight silver metallic in near-perfect condition with about 6,000 miles, No FSD. I am in Florida and doing some initial pondering about how to price it for sale. Appreciate feedback from anyone who has recently bought or sold their MYLR.

I have a year-old MYLR with software 2022.16.1.2. Let me preface this post by stating that I have not driven the Tesla for a couple months as I was out of state with a rental Subaru Forrester. Now that I'm home, in the past week, I've noticed that when I back up and see vehicles and people...

I plan to leave my MYLR plugged in to my garage wall charger for about 6 weeks while I am out of town. Looking for opinions from you battery geeks regarding what is a good battery % to set? I am thinking 50-60%.

I have blind spot cameras and blind spot chime enabled. When I signal to change lanes, the camera comes up, but no chime when there is a car occupying the adjacent lane. Does the chime only sound when I actually steer into the occupied lane? Has anyone actually heard this chime when changing lanes?

I have blind spot cameras and blind spot chime enabled. When I signal to change lanes, the camera comes up, but no chime when there is a car occupying the adjacent lane. Does the chime only sound when I actually steer into the occupied lane? I didn't want to test this theory and piss off the...

Ha, disregard. The wife changed her story to she was in the driveway, not at a stoplight. So car was about 50 feet from me. Still, kind of weird how the conversation suddenly transmitted in the car.

So my wife was driving the MYLR today with her driver profile selected. Meanwhile I am at home 10 miles away talking to someone on my iPhone. While at a stoplight, she selects my driver profile to experience the seat/ mirrors settings. Suddenly she is hearing my telephone conversation through...

Good one. I thought it might be a cool new hitch receiver cover.

EDD is October? Are you talking 2022? That is a long time, but well worth the wait. Hang in there. Also, I didn't get a VIN until about 2 weeks prior to delivery.

If its been a while since your attempt to contact them, I would definitely have your cc folks investigate. It costs you nothing and you will often get a provisional refund to your account before the resolution time expires. I've done this a few times when vendors don't produce what I order. Easy...

The new app charging schedule page has a button for "Off-Peak Charge." Does my car computer or phone app know when the off-peak rates are best for my location? Interesting concept.

I have the opposite problem with my 21 MYLR. I keep the windows rolled up but occasionally find one of them down about two inches when I depart in the morning. I do not have the vent feature selected and my garage is not that hot. Is there some way to tell the computer not to vent?

I picked up my MYLR in mid-June. No issues with gaps or paint. No paint chips after 2500 miles. No electrical or mechanical problems. Knock on wood, except for the known problem with opening the car manual which freezes the screen, everything is good so far. I cannot comment on service centers...

I am currently updating to 2021.32.21. What does "car wash mode" do exactly?

A Corolla for $39K. Holy crap!

Just don't get caught by the man. Your insurance premium will skyrocket.

So I received the roof shade and found no instructions, suction cups or anything else included. Do I need to order these separately or was a mistake made? I sent the company an email but it is the weekend and I have not heard from them yet.

The website lists the different sections. Is the roof section called "Top Window?" The pic looks like it has a cutout for the mirror.

This one works great. Master Lock 2866DAT 1/2 in. and 5/8 in. Swivel Head Receiver Lock for Class I-IV, 1 Pack, Black

This is the correspondence I had with Kuat about a week ago: I have placed an order for a 2" hitch pin to be shipped your way when we get more in stock. I checked our stock this morning and I see that we have no locking pins in stock for the 2" size and will not likely have them for several...

I used this and it works fine. Cheap and delivered in one day. Master Lock 2866DAT 1/2 in. and 5/8 in. Swivel Head Receiver Lock for Class I-IV, 1 Pack, Black

Success. The Kuat NV2.0 Base took about 30 minutes to assemble. Very beefy, high quality construction. The NV2.0 will be my last bike rack. Of course I've said that before.....then we got the ebikes that weigh ~48lbs each. The rack installed on the MY in about 5 minutes, and another 10 minutes...

I just got this delivered in less than one day from Amazon Prime. And it works on my 21' MYLR OEM hitch! Its cheap and will work fine until Kuat sends me one when it gets in stock. Master Lock 2866DAT 1/2 in. and 5/8 in. Swivel Head Receiver Lock for Class I-IV, 1 Pack, Black

Thanks for the link. That is excellent!

After weeks of deliberation and ordering, I finally picked up my Kuat NV 2.0 Base the other day from REI. It turns out the hitch pin lock is too long to fit the OEM 2" receiver due to the electrical box. I contacted Kuat and got a quick response that a suitable replacement hitch pin would be...

After a month of MYLR ownership I decided to charge up to 100% and take a drive. I was pleasantly surprised that it charged to 330 miles. During the first 15 minutes of driving I found the regenerative braking didn't feel normal and the car drifted like an ICE vehicle when I released the...

I can see the utility of subscribing for a month when taking a cross-country trip, then cancel at the end of the month (if that is possible?)

I gave up on seeing legislation and ordered back in May. I've been driving my MYLR for a couple weeks now with no regrets. The fossil fuel industry is still very powerful and will probably squash any rebates. Their lobbyists will inevitably be deeply involved in writing the draft legislation.

Yes, factory install is 2"

I am the OP and I was not subtracting the weight of the rack to come up with a total 160lbs. I read a couple different threads this year where MY owners state the 120lb limit. This is one of them from Feb 21:

Excellent information. Thanks for the help.

After spending several hours pouring over previous threads regarding how much weight can be placed on the factory installed hitch receiver, I remain confused. The latest MY manual I found on the interweb (2020.44, Oct 29,2020) says: "The hitch receiver is designed to support vertical loads up...

Can you confirm this works on a Model Y? I have two e-bikes that weigh about 55 lbs each and this sounds like a good solution. Does the hitch pin and lock work in the limited space?

I had the same thing happen this morning in my 2021 MYLR. Trying to get the most up-to-date weight limit for trailer hitch (160lbs maybe?). It freezes the screen and requires a reboot. This is pretty lame.

How much does Ford pay Car & Driver Magazine for advertising and how much does Tesla pay (hint: zero)? That might possibly slant their comparison.

I just ordered the iPhone mini and need a case compatible with the wireless pad of my new MYLR. Is it important to get one that says "mag safe?"

I felt a little bad about having to order the home Link remote. But a friend recently said he took delivery of a loaded Audi. Loaded with everything but........you guessed it, no garage door opener.

Congrats! Make sure you bring your smartphone. Just picked up a MYLR in Tampa last week. There was a poster in the parking area listing the steps to do almost everything via phone, to include accept delivery and unlock the doors. The paperwork was inside the car waiting for signature.

Anybody out there who never bother with turning on the Cabin Overheat Protection? Are you experiencing any electronics problems? I lived in some very hot places and melted a few plastic cup, etc, but I don't recall any electronic equipment failing because of the passenger compartment...

I took delivery of a MYLR in Tampa last week and can happily report no real issues. There was a minor alignment needed on the left taillight assembly, which was fixed by Tesla Mobile maintenance today when they also installed the home link. Like Beartheonus, I spent way too much time studying...

Thanks for the help. I need to study the manual and play with explore all these features. Lots to learn.

So my new MYLR VIN 199xxx has about 100 miles on it. I have been unable to get it to autosteer. Cruise control works fine, but on the interstate going 70mph, and on major 4-lane road going 45mph, I get the message "Autosteer is currently unavailable." This occurs during the day in clear weather...

Getting to know my new MYLR and want to test out the walk away lock feature. My iPhone is paired to the vehicle and I can use it to open the vehicle and drive. I went to the lock display and see the walk away icon, but it is grayed out and not executable. Any suggestions would be greatly...

I just got a MYLR and plan to get a new iPhone to replace my rustic iphone7. Any tips on how well the iPhone 12 mini works with the charging pad on the recent MY's? I read some threads indicating spotty success from those who got their vehicles in 2020 and hope Tesla has improved the charging...

So I need to get my home link garage door opener installed. I opened the Tesla App and went through the screens to describe service needed, and pick a time and SC location. There was no option offered for having a mobile tech come to my home. Is mobile service a decision made by Tesla or me?

I just got the MYLR today, but in the past we use google map on the iPhone to get pretty accurate realtime updates. I found it more user-friendly than Waze.

I just took delivery on my new MY. I forgot to ask the delivery folks how long the free premium connectivity lasts. It used to be a year, but I recall something about it now being a few months? I can't find anything in my documentation that lists this info.

I am scheduled for delivery of a MYLR next week and my insurance company is asking about airbag locations. The manual doesn't mention rear passenger airbags. Can anyone verify that the rear passenger seats do/do not have any airbags, side curtain or otherwise?

Do you use some weird kind of hair gel?
