    Looks like it's headed to being official - $400 registration fee and $200 annual fee in Texas for EVs

    That would be way too smart for the politicians in TX. How is that fair for the EV owners compared with the ICE drivers in TX? The ICE drivers have to pay only if they put in gas, but as an EV owner, you have to pay $200 per year no matter how many miles you drive. Case in point, my wife has an...

    Tesla False Advertising on Model S and X

    I ordered a Tesla Model X Plaid on Dec 28. Took delivery on Dec 30. I found on YouTube that Tesla has a $7500 credit and 10000 miles worth of Supercharging if you take delivery between Dec 30 and Dec 31. I called the customer service and I was told that they don't know for sure what is going...

    Model Y Performance range question

    I barely get 200miles on a full charge cruising at 75mph. I have a 22 MYP with 20 inch wheels. I tried it once for fun. After that...charging between 90 and 140 miles. I don't know how the EPA rating works but is total bs. Probably downhill with a skeleton on driver seat.

    model y performance range

    I just finished a 2000 miles trip on my MYP 2022. I have 20" wheels on it that are lighter compared to the original wheels. Maybe is something wrong with my car but with two people on the car and the luggage I could not beat 200 miles range on a full charge. I end up charging between 100 and...

    Vendor Show Off Your Aftermarket Model Y Wheels

    There is an improvment compared with the 21 inch. It‘s mostly noticeable on streets with uneven pavement or small cracks or potholes. If I have to quantify in numbers I would say that the ride quality is improved by about 7 - 10% over the 21 inch. Btw, my MYP is with 255 tires.

    VINs from GIGA Texas Tracking. Who will be first?

    There are plenty for RAV4 Prime at MSRP price in DFW area. It looks like the car lost some mojo.

    That might change when Tesla has more competition.

    Model Y - Gigafactory Texas Production

    I disagree. I'm paying the latest price, I want the latest updates. It's not my fault because Tesla is inconsistent with the hardware version on two cars built at the same time.

    $12K for FSD is insane

    With the exception that the other modification actually work. My friend paid $6k for FSD in 2017. Now he's ready to change the car....so wasted money.

    Recent MYP Delivery Estimates

    How about the other side of the coin? People paying the latest price, myself included and getting yesterday's technology? At the same time Tesla ships cars with the latest technology to some lucky people but not to everyone. I don't think it's right.

    Recent MYP Delivery Estimates

    Instead of Tesla change that option, how about Tesla treating all the customers the same way? I don't think my $70k are better than your $70k. In top of that you have the build quality and frustration that comes with it because Fremont can't put their sh1t together after two years of building...

    Shopping for an ICE for my wife...

    At $70k price point Tesla leave much to be desired. The quality is not there. I never purchased a car in the past 25 years with a checklist on my hand ( for gaps, etc). Compare apples to apples. Just because the other automakers didn't choose to install an iPad as a main control center doesn't...

    It can't be worst than the Fremont builds. Between my wife and I, we had over 30 cars in the past 22 years. I can't remember going to any dealer with a checklist in my hand to check for gaps and the whole nine yards. Not once! She really wants a MYP (switching from a 2018 Lexus RX350) and I...

    I would agree with you if Tesla didn't manufactured cars with Ryzen chips, but they do. I don't want to be the guy paying Tesla $2k-$3k in three to four years because I can "upgrade" the MCU while Tesla decided to ship about 20%( at this time) of the cars with Ryzen . I disagree with you on...

    This would not be a problem if Tesla is consistent with the technology delivered with their cars. I don't want to pay 80k for the 2020 technology.

    Model Y - Gigafactory Texas Production

    Buying a Tesla is like buying a car from a third party and register it by yourself. The sales tax is the same. The existing laws are dumb and outdated.It only hurts the consumers and the manufactures.

    Which incremental improvements made it to the 2022 Model Y LR or PP?

    Thank you! My delivery date is March 2022. Hopefully, some incremental improvements will make it to the Model Y. If not, I want my car to be TX-built. If none of my wishes come true, I will postpone until I get what I want. I'm not hell-bent on paying a premium price and getting a subpar build...
