3 Years into ownership, every time I get an opportunity to put my Model Y’s accelerator on the floor, the goosebumps come right back. My mother in-law thinks the car is too fast and she doesn’t trust me to drive her in it. In other words, the car came with a bonus!
I’ve owned a Tesla since 2018 and have a 23 Y now. You’ll never get bored. I recently purchased acceleration boost and that alone has kept me entertained for weeks.
I've had my Model Y Performance for nearly 3 years now, and it still puts a smile on my face every time I drive it. I've done numerous long distance road trips to places like Yellowstone, the Grand Canyon, Pikes Peak, Death Valley, around Lake Michigan, Great Smoky Mountains, and Tail of the Dragon was very fun even though it doesn't corner that great compared to sports cars. My supercharger sessions usually average 15-25 minutes, though I've seen as long as an hour (really hot triple digit day in Utah), and as short as 7 minutes, which was the time it took me to go to the bathroom and back. For my daily commuting, I love being able to precondition the cabin in my garage without the carbon monoxide worries. And watching Netflix in my car during my lunch break has let me catch up on many shows I might've otherwise overlooked. I love how over the air updates helps fix bugs, and adds new software features, such as Track Mode, or using the two side cameras when the backup camera is on. Sure, some other EV's can do some things better than Tesla, such as interior styling and fit & finish. But taken as a whole, Tesla offers you a lot of bang for your buck, which is why a lot of owners like them.
Spoiler alert. No. No. Having had mercedes, BMW and Porsche I can tell you our model y LR is the best car we've had hands down. Sure Porsche is more premium. But this is faster and for a nerd like me, I love the software updates.
What I like most about this channel is that it’s not a fanboy Elon worshipping circle jerk. I recently got a Austin-built MY because I didn’t need the extra 50 miles of range, I think that the structural frame is better, and I use the rear shelf cover almost every day. BTW I was surprised that the build quality of my MY is virtually perfect. It’s s as good as the built in Japan Honda Clarity I bought three years ago. While not perfect I’m impressed by the many cool features of the MY and love the idea of never sitting in line at Costco for gas. Keep these videos coming. Diapers are hella expensive.🤗
I’ve had my 3 since 2020, I also have a 2013 mini Cooper S and a 23 BMW i4. I like driving the Mini cause it’s a small car and handles great, the i4 is a nice car with more features than the 3 and has a softer ride, despite that I always look forward to driving the 3. I upgraded the suspension for better handling and recently got lightweight wheels with summer performance tires and it’s more fun to drive. I have a list of performance and other projects planned for it. 👍🏽
The recalls. I had so many people telling me how is this even possible. Where would you take it? We don’t see any dealers! I always tell them it’s done over the air OTA. THEY HAVE NO CLUE WHAT IM TALKING ABOUT.
Love your videos, man. Keep it up! Two years with our MYLR and still absolutely love it. The first car I have owned that gets better each year because of regular software updates. Fun road trip car. We enjoy stopping every 2-3 hours to stretch and rotate drivers. Really breaks up the trips.
No. I've had the car for five years and love it. I just changed the tail lights, headlights, and bottom reflectors to lit. All now have sequential turn signals. I've made a few interior mods, but absolutely not getting tired of it.
I've had my Model Y Premium for a week and absolutely love it. It's unlike anything else I've ever driven. 35 years ago I had a Porsche 911. It was fun to drive but the MYP is much more drivable on a daily basis and is much faster as well. I also live in the Phoenix area.
Having had my Y LR for almost 10 months and driving it through winter, I LOVE my Tesla. We did a huge road trip out east last summer that turned my wife from non-believer to EV enthusiast. My favorite part is how cheap it is to run every month. My Dodge Grand Caravan sits in my driveway and has barely moved since we picked up our Y. We can put just about everything that we load in the van into the Y. Just waiting for the Cybertruck to complete my driveway. Keep up the great content.
Yup my cousin Hardly use his Lexus v8 everytime when I get to drive to Arizona it just sat in the garage and his wife use the sienna which was they’re first car ever to start new life in Arizona you known that how far they got to.
With respect to trips with the MY, I agree with you 100%. Yes, it does take longer but the travel is so much more pleasant! And I agree, you just don’t feel so beaten up even after driving all day.
My hood on my MYP is misaligned to and took delivery June 2022. I had them try to fix it but all it did was make the latch mechanism more fluid. I left it because it isn’t terrible and think it’s more trouble than it’s worth to stress about. Overall great car and love it. Still have our 19 Model 3 that’s going well.
I've had mine since July '18. 60,000+ miles later (including Pacific to Atlantic and back plus other thousand-plus-mile journeys; 17 mins average charge time per stop) I'm consciously delighted every single damn time I get in the driver's seat-even just for a run to the grocery store. My other car is a Polaris Slingshot and I drive it fast on the twisty roads (Santa Barbara to Seattle and back in that one), and my other other car Is a 4Runner that went swimming with me in deep mud in Ensenada a couple weeks ago. So I know something about pleasurable driving.
Yup... spouses love it, as husbands like getting chore/errand drive assignments, as excuses to go drive it again :) But yes, twisty mountain roads- wow! Like stick shift but infinite speed gear, just one foot w/ same feel but just never shift. And the handling... was on a coastal road one evening, family asleep... or so I thought, until my teen daughter asked me... "Dad, are you... giggling?!" Umm, yes, I admitted, as I squee'd around another fun curve... wheeee!
I still love my Model Y after 2 years. But one or two things have developed that annoy me. One is the center console has developed an annoying squeak. The plastic cover squeaks all the time. I haven’t taken it in to a service center yet but if it gets worse I will. The other thing I’ve noticed is that the regenerative braking sometimes makes a sound. Hard to describe it. I guess I should take mine in for a “tuneup “.
After getting to experience in my cousin model y I love it everytime I see it, I currently own a 19 accord sport I drove my sister 2021 crv my dad odyssey but i prefer owing a Tesla because it technology is useful for me like AC keep on for Summer, sentry mode, dog mode ( which I need), dash cam, turning on heater on the phone, summon mode, theater mode( which I need too) etc.
2 years into it, def not as exciting as when I first got in. Maybe its bc i recently bought the MX. But all excitement or novel feeling dies at some point. Still a great car and no other commuter car Id rather drive
Before tesla, stop n go traffic, staying in lane, getting on and off ramp, stopping at gas station and price of gas going up would annoy me. the fact we can have a comfy ride thanks to the autopilot, and a really fast car to get ahead of slow traffic is a bliss!
I have had mine for a little over a year, Model 3. I am a bit bored of it, I came from a Manual Honda Civic Si coupe. Sure, it's not as fast as my Honda, but it's a more boring driving experience. However, as a daily, I like it. So I will be keeping it, but probably buying a fun sports car on the side.
Someone told me today Teslas are only build to last 8 years as nobody can afford a 36k dollar battery after that…. Very annoying and not worked arguing with people.
Over 20k on our model 3 LR and almost 50k on our model y performance, yet to even considering switching back to ICE or another EV. Have had BMW’s, Hyundais, Subarus, jeeps, Toyotas, pontiacs, and nothing comes close to Tesla for ownership experience.
I agree with most points except the homecharging. In the Netherlands in the cities most people live in appartments so they cannot charge at home. So i can understand that it is not that great then...
Hey Gjeegs, I'm sure I'm not the first one to notice...Your roof is cracked :( I also live in AZ and I get crackes on anything surface in my car that has glass! Awesome video my Friend!!!
Yes. When I rented a Tesla off Turo, the novelty quickly wore off once I got passed the speed and power. The gimmicks like farts and rainbow road are really silly.
I'm 36 and have owned 18 vehicles. My Tesla Model 3 is #18, and I don't plan to sell it anytime soon. Finally a vehicle that can do everything I want. As fast as a Corvette and 3x as efficient as a Prius., With nearly no maintenance required. No longer adding air intakes, exhausts, tunes, weight reductions to get performance I desire. #EV
Man, you've gained some traction ( no pun intended). Entertainment is hit and miss but you are not here to entertain just me and I get it!... Teslas are the car for the petrol head imho
The software updates keep Tesla cars fresh. If you get bored put the fart blinkers on to brighten up any bad feeling you may have. If you like to live dangerously then turn the fart horn on.
I wouldn't get bored if I could save money not going to the gas pumps. You could ask this question for any car that people own. So kind of a mood point. There are always going to be Pros and Cons to anything. As long as you don't get hit with allot of expensive repairs during ownership, the car should be great to have. Right now I have a 2001 Monte Carlo (21 years old) and I never got tired of the car for all these years. It has 110,000 miles on the car. The car runs good and has some rust spots on it. Plan to get an EV vehicle next year, it may not be a Tesla. Charging on long trips could be a downfall to EV's and extreme weather knocking down the range miles you can go. So we kind of adjust to what has to be done when driving an EV vehicle. My EV driving would be around town and short single charge trips. Would always charge the vehicle at home.
Me here I own a 19 4 cylinder accord sport but later this week I need gas which I get from Costco and I hate it most of the time that when I need to it get crowded while I know third party chargers is fairly empty or charge at home after drive around the city to do stuff.
It’s so weird how Americans are afraid or even despise EV cars or owners. Pickup trucks that “coal you down” to send some message IDK. I live in Norway - 80% of new cars in 2022 were 100% electric. The rest mostly plug-in hybrids. In our area it was 92% EV’s registered. 1/5 of all cars in Norway are now EVs. Yet - people don’t care if someone uses a gas vehicle or not, it’s their choice 🤷♂️
The insane amount of FUD I hear from my coworkers and the internet is mind blowing. “ what happens if you run out of electricity” is my favorite. I always reply “ that’s why there’s a gauge to let you know when to charge…..sort of like your gas gauge”. Tesla has though of everything, lol.
'bored of your tesla"..... Maybe "bored" is not the right word, as I've never felt bored with any ice vehicles I've owned. That said, I've not (yet) owned a Tesla....got close, but having waited this long, now I feel I can wait another year and see what the new Y brings.....Hoping for improved seats and a cooling function, and extra display.
Unreal, just total circle jerk. I enjoy Gjeebs, hilarious dude. But the constant repetition of Tesla circle jerking shows no signs of slowing down. Fwiw, I got bored of my model Y and sold after 12 months.
Love your channel BUT... In more than one video, you disregard Tesla's cold 42 PSI tire recommdation and tell people to measure PSI when hot. Bad idea. I'm a car and motorycle enthusiast and even have a bit of racing in my history. Understand that an underinflated tire reduces your range by around 0.3% for every 1% reduction in tire pressure. Since you are underinflating your tires from the recommended cold PSI of 42, down to 38, that is about a 9.5% reduction. That equates to losing about 2.85% of range. A 330-mile model Y will have a likely range reduction of just over 9 miles. Also, underinflated tires expend more heat and wear faster. Do what Tesla says folks, there is actual science based on loads calculated. Fill to 42 PSI when the tires are COLD.
I did. Teslas are so common now they don’t even get a second look. I wanted a vehicle that had some styling instead of the cookie cutter styling of the Model 3 and Y so I traded in my 2020 Model 3 and bought the 2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5 and haven’t looked back. 😊
The plan as of now is to get another EV because a lot of my audience love's the EV content and then at the end of this year get something like an RS that I can use for pure fun. I have a secondary channel I will put that content on.
Had my Model Y LR over a year and still LOVING it... Discover knew things all the time.... NOT including the easter eggs Tesla periodically sends... More appealing to me than my IPHONE...
Everybody is different. I had the opportunity to drive my buddy's Model S Plaid. After about an hour of driving it, I was bored. I need Noise and Vibration
@@johnb4183 supercharging remains free for original owners of Teslas up to some point in time. Not sure of that date. If those original cars are sold back to Tesla, I've heard they have been removing the free supercharging. If the owner sells to someone other than Tesla, the free supercharging can stay with the car. For the newest Teslas like Model 3 and Model Y, it appears they register their credit card on file with Tesla for paid supercharging. Perhaps someone else in the comments might contribute more up to date details of this.
I agree with these points. I thought I'd want to get Acceleration Boost by now, but I still don't need it. With road trips, it's my family that takes longer than the charging! So even when we had our Charger, all it really meant was that a break was still long, but we'd still need to fill up after getting back in the car. What does the Macan do that the Y doesn't? I'd love a Porsche to go with my Y, but it'd be a Cayman or 911, I don't see what another fast CUV adds.
I don’t care about environmental BS. I love Tesla coz it’s fun to drive and such a low maintenance car. And it’s software is years ahead of others and I am it guy myself. The only gripe I have it not having car play or android auto capability.
Kind of like how the Rivian does everything an adventure truck should be able to do, excellently, Teslas are kind of excellent at most car uses, as mentioned... one car, can fulfill most all your needs very well and enjoyably, without much compromise. It's sort of interesting that it often does/is mutually-exclusive things, both, well. - Very fun to drive (high performance/acceleration) like a sports car, even trackable (some trims), but also a joy to simply relax w/ AutoPilot driving you most of the time; - yet also roomy comfortable and practical, not just as daily driver, but also for long family roadtrips, like family car; - luxury and complex high-tech features, but also very simple to use, and low operation cost (charging / maintenance)... - and while they may not change much over model years (style-wise), they have lots of constant improvements, and EVERY car gets new software features continually , making even 5yr old cars feel new and fresh again despite "not changing." So, you kind of get many things you might want, even mutually exclusive ones, in a SINGLE car, and in a practical and fun one. That is enjoyable, exciting, and cheaper than multiple cars :) Are they, or Elon, perfect? No, but they nearly always bring joy and fun when driving... that's priceless.
Bought a 2023 model 3 rwd in march 2023... man i love this car…it is the most luxurious car i ever own…. Coming from the jeep wrangler community and subaru..i even had a harley davidson,,, my tesla is just blowing every cars i have driven. My only cons are the following.. because model 3 rwd is still a good chunk of money.. atleast it is for me.. im still affraid to damage the paint. And adding ppf is expensive.. adding third party rust proof can avoid the warranty … so when i drive my new tesla i kinda worry to damage the body.. i live in the north so here upwe have insane amount of snow and ice in the winter.. and the roads are very dirty and salty. Tesla paint is prone to chip. Also i have installed a roof rack and i hear some sealing cracking or streeching while installing the roof rack. Hopefully nothing will brake the sunroof. I too was hesitant to switch to EV. Also i didn't want to spend a fortune on an evolving technology. I did'n,t want to endup with a small range tesla. Thos who bought an ev back in the day.. leaf, volt.. these people were the pioneer but how many of those people still drive a leaf / volt. Hopefully theynwon't come up with a better battery tech..as i will want to sell my tesla before its price drop like a rock

3 Years into ownership, every time I get an opportunity to put my Model Y’s accelerator on the floor, the goosebumps come right back. My mother in-law thinks the car is too fast and she doesn’t trust me to drive her in it. In other words, the car came with a bonus!
i’m getting one too just for that reason…
LMAOOOOO this made me chuckle
@@user-wj7ns1vj9t seeing someone use the word chuckle made me chuckle
Had my Model 3 for a year and still love driving it everyday. Never had that with another car. Owned Saab, VW, Mercedes, etc.
Most fun I’ve had driving a car in my more than 30 years of driving.
I’ve owned a Tesla since 2018 and have a 23 Y now. You’ll never get bored. I recently purchased acceleration boost and that alone has kept me entertained for weeks.
You won't get bored with your Tesla because you're buying stuff to not be bored 😂
Single pedal driving is amazing. It rocks!
You missed a major maintenance task on every Tesla…Adding windshield washer fluid! 😂
I've had my Model Y Performance for nearly 3 years now, and it still puts a smile on my face every time I drive it. I've done numerous long distance road trips to places like Yellowstone, the Grand Canyon, Pikes Peak, Death Valley, around Lake Michigan, Great Smoky Mountains, and Tail of the Dragon was very fun even though it doesn't corner that great compared to sports cars.
My supercharger sessions usually average 15-25 minutes, though I've seen as long as an hour (really hot triple digit day in Utah), and as short as 7 minutes, which was the time it took me to go to the bathroom and back.
For my daily commuting, I love being able to precondition the cabin in my garage without the carbon monoxide worries. And watching Netflix in my car during my lunch break has let me catch up on many shows I might've otherwise overlooked.

The insane amount of FUD I hear from my coworkers and the internet is mind blowing. “ what happens if you run out of electricity” is my favorite. I always reply “ that’s why there’s a gauge to let you know when to charge…..sort of like your gas gauge”. Tesla has though of everything, lol.
GAS PEDDLE!! LOL. and YES, men can get preg............ jk. Love this channel!!
'bored of your tesla"..... Maybe "bored" is not the right word, as I've never felt bored with any ice vehicles I've owned. That said, I've not (yet) owned a Tesla....got close, but having waited this long, now I feel I can wait another year and see what the new Y brings.....Hoping for improved seats and a cooling function, and extra display.
80’s disco…niche
Too much Tesla simping in the video
Unreal, just total circle jerk. I enjoy Gjeebs, hilarious dude. But the constant repetition of Tesla circle jerking shows no signs of slowing down. Fwiw, I got bored of my model Y and sold after 12 months.
Stupid insurances cost more on these
flipped my kitchen table over to test your theory and it broke
damn, I'll ship out a new one
Love your channel BUT... In more than one video, you disregard Tesla's cold 42 PSI tire recommdation and tell people to measure PSI when hot. Bad idea. I'm a car and motorycle enthusiast and even have a bit of racing in my history. Understand that an underinflated tire reduces your range by around 0.3% for every 1% reduction in tire pressure. Since you are underinflating your tires from the recommended cold PSI of 42, down to 38, that is about a 9.5% reduction. That equates to losing about 2.85% of range. A 330-mile model Y will have a likely range reduction of just over 9 miles. Also, underinflated tires expend more heat and wear faster. Do what Tesla says folks, there is actual science based on loads calculated. Fill to 42 PSI when the tires are COLD.
I did. Teslas are so common now they don’t even get a second look. I wanted a vehicle that had some styling instead of the cookie cutter styling of the Model 3 and Y so I traded in my 2020 Model 3 and bought the 2022 Hyundai Ioniq 5 and haven’t looked back. 😊
Wait, you wanted style so you got a Hyundai? So now you have no style and also no horsepower?
Every electric car is a good car!
Hopefully you don’t have that 12v battery issue that is plaguing the ioniq 5s
@@walex19 Nope. I have had it for a year now and not one issue. 👍
@@esquiredan2702 Uhm if you consider 4.5 seconds 0-60 no horsepower then I guess your right. Way more than I’ll ever need. 👍
another good video. I think you and I can be friends.
1.4 years. And yes.
def get bored of qElmos memes....
Tesla cult is the only cult I’ll ever admit to being part of
Gjeebs get a RS you know it makes sense 😉
The plan as of now is to get another EV because a lot of my audience love's the EV content and then at the end of this year get something like an RS that I can use for pure fun. I have a secondary channel I will put that content on.
Everyone take notes, this is a Tesla owner that doesn’t identify his politics with the vehicle he drives.😂😂
I don’t that’s a thing anymore now that so many of them are around
Had my Model Y LR over a year and still LOVING it... Discover knew things all the time.... NOT including the easter eggs Tesla periodically sends... More appealing to me than my IPHONE...
Love the random rants!😂
Just rolled over 100,000 kms on mine, and it still regularly makes me smile while driving! So... no!
Everybody is different. I had the opportunity to drive my buddy's Model S Plaid. After about an hour of driving it, I was bored. I need Noise and Vibration
Do you still have the type r?
No. Nine years later, and we love our Model S more than ever! Never bored.
Claudia Hansen Is supercharging still free ? Thanks
@@johnb4183 supercharging remains free for original owners of Teslas up to some point in time. Not sure of that date. If those original cars are sold back to Tesla, I've heard they have been removing the free supercharging. If the owner sells to someone other than Tesla, the free supercharging can stay with the car. For the newest Teslas like Model 3 and Model Y, it appears they register their credit card on file with Tesla for paid supercharging. Perhaps someone else in the comments might contribute more up to date details of this.
Stay tuned for the next episode where we answer the question
Will I ever get bored of making up stories about my Tesla?
I agree with these points. I thought I'd want to get Acceleration Boost by now, but I still don't need it. With road trips, it's my family that takes longer than the charging! So even when we had our Charger, all it really meant was that a break was still long, but we'd still need to fill up after getting back in the car.
What does the Macan do that the Y doesn't? I'd love a Porsche to go with my Y, but it'd be a Cayman or 911, I don't see what another fast CUV adds.
Had an 18 M3 DM for 15 months then traded it in for 22 MYP. Love the MYP, except for the loan payments.
Not tired of my 2021 Y. Take it the Tesla Corsa Events almost every month. 2:04 button willow 13CW lap time
I wish I can afford one. Waiting for used prices to drop.
Sincerely,
Broke Ninja

Oh yeah - he’s just your avg. Joe. 🙄
I don’t care about environmental BS. I love Tesla coz it’s fun to drive and such a low maintenance car. And it’s software is years ahead of others and I am it guy myself. The only gripe I have it not having car play or android auto capability.
That the reason why I want a tesla because I already drive not a fastest or fast car but my accord 1.5 sport is fun but I prefer low maintenance car.
I own a Range Rover Velar and I’m getting a model Y soon
Hey nw subbie here - what is the warranty on the battery for this car pls?
Pittsburgh PA here - near Monroeville!
You can look all of this up on Tesla's website but 8 yr 120,000 mile warranty on the battery
I have a 2021 model y purchased in 11/20. It has 123,292 trouble free miles. Still love it like it was day one!
impressive mileage!
Amazing! Noticed much degradation? Did you use the supercharger a lot?
is there a crack on your glass roof?
Great video !
Kind of like how the Rivian does everything an adventure truck should be able to do, excellently, Teslas are kind of excellent at most car uses, as mentioned... one car, can fulfill most all your needs very well and enjoyably, without much compromise. It's sort of interesting that it often does/is mutually-exclusive things, both, well.
- Very fun to drive (high performance/acceleration) like a sports car, even trackable (some trims), but also a joy to simply relax w/ AutoPilot driving you most of the time;
- yet also roomy comfortable and practical, not just as daily driver, but also for long family roadtrips, like family car;
- luxury and complex high-tech features, but also very simple to use, and low operation cost (charging / maintenance)...
- and while they may not change much over model years (style-wise), they have lots of constant improvements, and EVERY car gets new software features continually , making even 5yr old cars feel new and fresh again despite "not changing."
So, you kind of get many things you might want, even mutually exclusive ones, in a SINGLE car, and in a practical and fun one. That is enjoyable, exciting, and cheaper than multiple cars :)
Are they, or Elon, perfect? No, but they nearly always bring joy and fun when driving... that's priceless.
Bought a 2023 model 3 rwd in march 2023... man i love this car…it is the most luxurious car i ever own…. Coming from the jeep wrangler community and subaru..i even had a harley davidson,,, my tesla is just blowing every cars i have driven. My only cons are the following.. because model 3 rwd is still a good chunk of money.. atleast it is for me.. im still affraid to damage the paint. And adding ppf is expensive.. adding third party rust proof can avoid the warranty … so when i drive my new tesla i kinda worry to damage the body.. i live in the north so here upwe have insane amount of snow and ice in the winter.. and the roads are very dirty and salty. Tesla paint is prone to chip. Also i have installed a roof rack and i hear some sealing cracking or streeching while installing the roof rack. Hopefully nothing will brake the sunroof. I too was hesitant to switch to EV. Also i didn't want to spend a fortune on an evolving technology. I did'n,t want to endup with a small range tesla. Thos who bought an ev back in the day.. leaf, volt.. these people were the pioneer but how many of those people still drive a leaf / volt. Hopefully theynwon't come up with a better battery tech..as i will want to sell my tesla before its price drop like a rock
Just curious, is that a Crack in your glass roof? Anyway, I'm actually contemplating getting a used 2019 model 3 since prices dropped so much now.
Probably 2nd favorite maybe 1st Tesla content creator. Depends on my mood. keep ‘em coming!
