I would say my prime has better fit and finish and it was 30k and rides better lol. Tesla QA has sorely lacked for sure.

Nicer fit and finish on a premium EV is nearly double the price.
Model s has a better finish.
Can get an ICE car with a nice finish but no way I’d drive ICE after going EV

I have the older real leather steering wheel.
However I wanted to protect my steering wheel.
And found a good quality cover.
There are different styles, here is the one I installed:
Steering Wheel
Hi all, I'm wanting to put a leather steering wheel cover on my 2022 Model 3 (like in the pictures of my Honda). I've done this on my sons' Honda's but their steering wheels were all rubber/plastic and didn't have an original cover with stitching like the Tesla. Does anyone know what's...

Be careful what you say. You may be accused of “working for Lexus/Rivian/etc”.

I’m sure a Prius has better fit and finish than a Jaguar too. If that’s what you prioritize in a car, you should absolutely buy a Toyota.

In what world or conditions is a 100 mile trip a problem in a Model Y?
Depends. Is it a 100+miles each way or 100+ miles round trip? If its the former I can easily see scenarios where car will have trouble getting to 220-240 highway miles at 80% daily charging.

Sure. I guess I’ve just never understood “100+ mile commute” to actually mean “200+ mile commute”.

Exactly. If you just want to drive around town you have many options, road tripping without hassle is a Tesla thing. Regardless, all you have is now, nothing else is guaranteed and choices will surely get better but there’s always an opportunity cost for waiting and when do you finally pull the trigger? Perfection isn’t in the cards til you die (if you’re of that persuasion of course).
Most people define their "Commuting distance" as the maximum one-way distance a worker could reasonably be expected to travel each workday between the worker's residence and place of work. Either way, my point is more than 200miles driven daily can be tricky during winter conditions if you are to keep your car charged at 80% as recommended while avoiding supercharging every day.
Tesla says it is adding radar in its cars next month amid self-driving suite concerns
Tesla told the FCC that it plans to market a new radar starting next month. The move raises even more concerns about self-driving capabilities.

This makes the whole "credit" make sense. Tesla planning to add new Radar next year.

Daily? With it charged at 80%? Without using superchargers? If you have a convenient charging sport at your work that works the best. Most don't have that.
You are making good points. Truth to be told Tesla is at a great position in USA. They don't have huge competition, it's coming but months away. So it's obvious they are charging more for their cars than they would otherwise and continue to take features away.
Look at China, all sort of promotions and lower prices because of competition.
It's simple, Supply and Demand. As long as US consumers willing to pay, Tesla will charge and continue to lower their cost (by removing features etc) and increase their profit. Tesla's single goal is to make as much money as they can on every single car they make.
Writing is on the wall. This isn't going to last long. Prices will come down and features will have to come back.
Not sure about your criteria but I always charge to 90% as the norm and rarely use superchargers. Can get 260 with minimal effort. Not sure why this would be a challenge for anyone unless they are in Alaska.Tesla says it is adding radar in its cars next month amid self-driving suite concerns

In heavy traffic, like commuter traffic, use the Cruise Control and the car will respond to the car in front of you--no need to use your brake or gas. I LOVE this feature. So easy.
Question is how well will that work with only “Tesla Vison” - when in real life, there is frost/condensation/dust/etc on the car in the morning.
