I want to mention the main reason I went back to an EV…the stress free driving experience. The way an electric car drives, so smoothly, without any clunks and weird noises. The way there is no transmission shifting feeling, it’s one strong direct drive pull. I hate how most cars, even the PDKs I owned, had the feeling of transmission engagement. Having the torque and power at the drop of a hat, zero hesitations, pulling hard out of corners etc. it just doesn’t get old. Sure I’ll have a nice 6spd manual sports car in the garage for the weekends but that’s it.
Thanks for sharing your experience. I've had my Model Y for about a year and absolutely love it. Have taken it on multiple 2000mi road trips and I agree the navigation is great and the stops felt normal anyway because of my kids needing a break. Best vehicle I've owned so far. Thanks for all your reviews that helped me make the decision to get one. Cheers!
Two things that drives me crazy when I hear people say. 1. Tesla wears out tires faster that ICE. 2. Tesla are heavier than ICE. Both are not true. When I hear someone say those two things. I know that they don't know anything about cars. They are just repeating what they've heard.
Bro could low key get paid from comedy lol...He's one of the people that convinced me to get a Tesla. And its theWORST decision I ever made....LOL JK I LOVE my MY.
I’m going on 4 years with my Model Y also. I bought mine in December 2020. Only a few things I don’t like about it. The suspension is very stiff and can be uncomfortable over rough roads or speed bumps. The other thing as a shorter woman is that the seat belt is too high for me. It cuts across my neck and won’t drop down any lower. A couple of updates have come through that I don’t really like. I don’t like the way they changed the access to the music. The update made it more awkward to use. Overall it’s been a fantastic car.
“Are you driving on a nascar circuit to work everyday?” “Is your wife in 600lbs life” FACTS! I just got my 24LRMY, I drive in chill mode 90% of the time and when necessary or for show and tell I changed the function on the left scroll to acceleration. I must say even in chill mode it’s pretty decent and coming from my 14 Camaro.
I just got my model 3 LR AWD (acceleration boost, 3.7s to 60) tires rotated. They are at 30,000 miles and they still have between 6-7 32nds left on them. I drive almost exclusively in chill mode because it reduces wheel spin and I live in the city so I don't get to gallop much anyway. I flip it to sport whenever I want to have fun, but for my day to day, chill is the way to go.
I love my MYP23. Love it. I have had many many luxury vehicles and sports cars. Maybe because I am older and have grown tired of oil changes and maintenance $. The car is fun and practical. My only hope is one day they make a true luxury cruiser sedan to match Lexus LS cars. Gjeebs you do a great job. Great sense of humor.
I have a 2022 model Y, it’s great but the rattles in the interior drives me crazy. It’s really inconsistent and it’s really hard to know where the source really is.
After a lot of investigation, I found the source of rattles (that drove me crazy) in my 2022 model Y. I found & fixed the problem. It was the metal seat posts in the two back seats. I removed the headrests and carefully bent the posts away from each other (or toward each other, I can’t remember). This puts some slight tension on them and keeps them from rattling. It made such an enormous difference. I have no problem with interior noise now. Hope this helps.
Carts not being put back in the carousel - THANK YOU FOR THIS!!!! Arizona has a lot of nice things, and nice people, but they are the worst at cart return. It screws up parking spaces, and then people "nudge" the carts over curbs which makes the carts wear out faster. My fellow Arizonans - don't be lazy, and don't be a d-bag to the employees by making them chase all over a parking lot when it's 100+ degrees. Just take 30 seconds and put it in the cart return. It's why the store puts cart returns in the lot in the first place. Thank you for the great videos, and the shoppiong cart Public Service Announcement, Gjeebs!
I've had my 2023 MY now for nearly 12 months, and the only issues I have had was with the driver's seat moving on it's mounts slightly, which Tesla have fixed under warranty. I'm also noticing some slight creaking near the glovebox as well as the rear tailgate/trunk door making a squeaking/rubbing sound when the car moves around on the road, as if the rubber seals are moving against the chassis/body of the car. I've heard someone else on FB having this issue and Tesla have fixed this for them.
Picked up a 2024 MY RWD SR a little less than 2 months ago. I just purchased the software upgrade that takes the car from 260 miles of rated range to 305 miles. Love the Y. The ride is a little firm, but better than most of the smaller cars I've owned before. It's only been in the low to mid 90's in my area so far, but I'm enjoying using cabin overheat protection when I'm out during the day. Keeps the cabin cooler than letting it bake in the sun, though not as cool as using Keep or Dog mode. Supercharging the Y is awesome. I came from a Chevy Bolt EV, so everything is an improvement with DCFCing. :)
Great review, thanks ! Here in France the problem could be in case of an accident : 5 month to have the parts for a minor accident… is it the same in the US ?
I have 37,951 miles on my OEM tires. I always drive in Chill mode. My Model Y is 13.5 months old. Sixty percent of our driving is long distance driving-vacation trips. We’re currently on a 10,000 mile trip.
I agree. Volcanic eruptions are deadly. Live on the Big Island of Hawaii, witnessed many eruptions and also noticed the vents opening underwater continually releasing pollutants. I drive a Tesla because I enjoy it and the reduction in maintenance costs moving from a Range Rover…
Hey Gjeebs. Given all of your various tests with aftermarket wheels, is there any rule-of-thumb you can share about how much weight you need to save per wheel to get to the trade off of weight savings versus no wheel covers (for Tesla M3/MY). In other words, when does a lighter set of wheels make up for the lack of aero wheel covers? Or are there too many variables (wheel design, off set, etc.) ? Keep up the great work my dude!
This is my favorite EV video. You absolutely nailed the “why do I want an EV” sentiment! Straight genius, sir! P.S. Karen, sweetie, don’t worry, I will collect your cart in the parking lot.
The newer Model Y suspension is noticeably better. We are on our second Model Y. First one we had from Dec 2020 to Nov 2023. The other thing that is still amazing to me is how roomy and practical it is. It's far more spacious inside then it looks from the outside.
Quick question. We love your channel and are moments from ordering a new Y. We are stuck. Hubs wants 20”, I want 19”. (It’s gonna be my car but I am sensitive to his dislike of hubcaps and curb rash) We saw your video on the addition to the 20” to protect the rims, but isn’t there a replacement hubcap that could be used on the 19” to protect the rim?? Help!
I’m buying a Model Y soon, love your content. You mentioned the cameras/ security, how easy is it to review camera recordings. How long are the recordings saved/how much storage is there? Also, are the recordings filtered by “alerts” (motion detected). I’d love a video on the cams. Now that I type that, I bet if I searched your channel I’d find one.. lol
I've only had my Model Y for almost 3 weeks right now, but I freaking love it. I do wish the front seats were a little bit wider, since I feel like a woman with large child-bearing thighs, but that's my greatest complaint.
People that don’t return their carts are the bane of my existence. One wind gust and that cart can go rolling across the lot and smacking someone’s car that they work hard to keep nice. So inconsiderate.
Did people really argue with you on returning the carts???? That's nuts. I was at HEB the other day sitting in my car while a cart darted passed my car, narrowly missing it. All because some lazy person couldn't want 20 ft to return the damn thing. My last car had a dent in the front from a runaway cart.
I always park near the cart return. And yeah I love opening the trunk from the app while walking out of the grocery store. Also from Scientific American, volcanoes produce less than 1% of the greenhouse gas emissions of human activity annually. But frankly it’s more about breathing in those emissions daily, as few people live amongst active volcanoes
As a new owner, the heat is really a bothering thing. But I almost have a complaint with the system rather than the roof. I believe the system is capable of outrunning the heat from the roof, but when I'm the only person in it, it doesn't want to turn on the passenger vent or rear vents. I really want them to unlock the software to full blast everything, and have it still auto. The seat is my biggest problem but it is mediated better when the rear vents are helping the other side of it stay cool.
When you are by yourself tap on the screen where the passenger vents are and it will activate it to turn on. On the left side of the screen there is a rear tab which will take you to the rear seat controls, etc. Once there look for the rear fan button.
@@craigwflys Yeah but I have to do that every time I get in the vehicle, I wish that I had an “ignore energy efficiency” button to just automatically run every vent
I have 106k miles on my 2021 Model 3 LR after 34 months of ownership. First set of tires got 62k miles and 44k miles of current set. 110 miles round trip commute 5 days a week on country roads and some highway. Also a few 2k mile road trips. Drive the car normally with the occasional stoplight drag race to embarrass the young punks.
@@burnx45 i’ll probably order another Tesla next fall and hand this car down to my wife who has a 2 mile commute. I usually start car shopping around 150,000 miles. She has my former hybrid that has almost 200,000 miles on it.
ur comment on how reliable combustion cars have gotten. early/first 1900's model t's would usually require a motor rebuild after 10k miles. maybe 20-30k if you were lucky. i think it had more to do with the roads back then. lots of reports of people needing to patch tires every other tank of gas, and gas only getting you 50 miles of range. these statistics are a bit hard to read though coz a lot of farmers bought model t's to basically use as tractors and farm vehicles. there was an option to go down to the railroad station and "pick up a truck bed conversion", hence the term pickup truck. i still cant believe the main break for early model t's was just an oil soaked cloth belt that clamped down on the transmission and hence the term emergency break was your backup break only for emergencies. i cant imagine either of those lasting very long. atleast there was right to repair lol
What about vinyl/ leather bras for stone protection for my 2024 standard model y. I saw some nice ones on line with a great price. Why wrap the front end? I have not seen a seen a tesla yet with a bra. Anyone out there have a tesla with a faux leather? What do you like about it?
I had to replace my model 3 lr at almost 20k miles. Other than when I first got the car when I did a number of pedal to the floor to see how it did.....never though from a dead stop, I drive like a normal person...
Not sure he thought it through. Lol. I think generally his point is he doesn't believe switching everyone from ice to ev will significantly impact climate change, no matter what the science says. Insert whatever analogy you want.
He's too smart not to know that forest fires (in Western US for instance) are in the increase due in large part to climate change, and that doing all we can to reverse that trend can't be a bad idea. So not entirely sure what his point was there. I will add I thought this was an excellent video.
I love my MYP23. Love it. I have had many many luxury vehicles and sports cars. Maybe because I am older and have grown tired of oil changes and maintenance $. The car is fun and practical. My only hope is one day they make a true luxury cruiser sedan to match Lexus LS cars.
@@Gjeebs I know full well what im doing. Did a 4 wheel skid uphill yesterday and left 4 tire tracks haha. Not great for longevity. I also send it full speed on gravel roads. Teslas are multi purpose. Also mine has caught air many times.
Got my 2021 YM LR and the basic accessories and I’ve been just driving. Nice car, easy to maintain. Spent a couple of months looking at every other vehicle before going full EV. Owning a Tesla is a little different than owning my RAV4. The Y suits my needs. I focus on the benefits not on what could go wrong. I drove a Prius for almost a decade and it was the same nonsense from the anti hybrid herd, what about the battery? What about it? Goes bad I buy a new one. Next.
Im surprised how expensive it is to go on a road trip using a tesla supercharger. probably more expensive than gas. I’ve been spending around $20 per charge and doing about 2-3 charges per day.
Tesla Y and others Tesla have no spare tire, the battery dropped 10% on first 8-9 months, after 13 months (it dropped another 15-17% battery). The original tires went out with us (at 21,300 miles) even we rotated the tires every 6,000 miles. The second set of tires lasted for 30,000 (rotated every 6,000 miles). It cost $1,500 for 4 tires. The third set of tires are coming up. Due to no spare tires, the tow truck tow our cars while we were on the way to the special event. The wheel cracked at 13,000 miles, Tesla wouldn't warranty, we had ended up to buy another wheel. We wouldn't buy another Tesla again. The Tesla was an over-prized for what we had paid for.
"That's someone's job" is the most annoying argument to the whole cart return debate. You don't throw your trash on the ground while you're in your local grocery store because "someone gets paid to pick it up." Absolute moron behavior imo
You’re funny and engaging, but your comment about how Volcanos emit so much CO2 it’s not worth transitioning to EV’s for the climate benefits was utter nonsense. Firstly when did you last see a volcano eruption, when did someone you know see a volcano erupt? Never? That’s because they are super rare - but more important they aren’t human activity. Do yourself a favor, since you run an EV based auto channel, go read about climate change before you spew unhelpful nonsense and false equivalencies.
@@olley7692 I hate it. Have a 2020 MYP and starting at 50,000 miles, the rattles have been nonstop. it’s almost worth selling it. That’s how bad it annoys me.
After a lot of investigation, I found the source of rattles (that drove me crazy) in my 2022 model Y. I found & fixed the problem. It was the metal seat posts in the two back seats.

that was a bit of an ignorant take - volcanoes and forest fires contribute more carbon to the atmosphere than a regular dude with a car would. forest fires are considered carbon neutral, because plants absorb the co2 and, in a forest fire, they release it back. the equivalent for us would be synthetic fuel, fuel that is carbon neutral, but that would require a massive number of fuel producing plants to meet the need. however, due to climate change, acerbated by humans since the industrial revolution, we are seeing fires in places that haven't seen a fire in centuries - like the boreal forests for example - places which were too cold to ever see a fire. so sure, one can make the argument that carbon is carbon, however, cutting back on fossil fuels is beneficial, regardless if forest fires happen or not. and to take a point out of your playbook, when you see a billy joe driving his truck to go get drive-thru, who works in an office and only buys that truck to feel macho, this whole thing is addressed to them, not to the guy who can only afford a civic or a corolla. the billy joe is the guy who doesn't put his carts back, doesn't recycle and so on...
Your rant about climate change really fried me. Climate change is real and if we had only natural carbon emissions such as volcanoes there wouldn't be climate change. I think the temperature will go up another 10 degrees or so in Arizona for you to enjoy.
I own two Teslas and solar panels and Powerwall and it has nothing to do with saving the environment. I have the cars because they are phenomenal and I bought solar and Powerwall because I wanted a whole home backup and it is on track to pay for itself in 5 years then I will earn money from it for the next 20 years. It is idiotic not to do it.
I'm pretty certain I DID tint my roof at Dynamic Tint because of your video when you first got the vehicle. Very annoying in this video you said you DIDNT tint the roof because it causes more heat. SMH
Love the part re not driving a Tesla to save the planet, one volcano erupts and forget all the so called saved emissions. I thought I was the only Tesla driver that thought like that. Great to hear that someone else thinks like me as well. I have no desire to be a planet virtue signaler 👍
IF Tesla ever significantly changes the exterior of the Tesla Model Y and/or 3 there will be a slew of used Tesla's hitting dealer lots. The are becoming boring to look at. I still can't tell the difference between the Y and the 3 on the highway/city streets. How much did you lose on depreciation over the course of 4 years when you sold.
We have a solar roof in Florida, and some regions are mostly clean’ish energy sourced, like the predominantly hydroelectric powered Pacific Northwest. Even in those backwards regions that still rely heavily on fossil fuels a Tesla is far more efficient than a gasoline burning car. Plenty of analysis published on this subject.
Dude, the reason it’s ALL OF OUR CONCERN is because there are BILLIONS of vehicles emitting poison. You wanna compare to a couple dozen rocket launches? Are you serious?
@@dcam456still produce a fraction of a fraction of a fraction of car emissions. A falcon 9 emits like 200 tons of co2 whereas globally we emit 3.5 billion tons of emissions from cars every year. 200 rockets at 200 tons is 40k tons a year from rockets. You’d have to launch over 17 million falcon 9s per year to get close to the yearly car co2 emissions.
I do own a 2023 model y and love it. As far as saving the planet remember every electric car basically runs on a combination of coal and natural gas so your burning fossil fuel and emitting emissions to move an electric car down the road. And let’s not even talk about the mining and production process in making that battery and eventually disposing of the battery. Mine is just over a year old and I have 27500 miles. I had 5/32nd of tread remaining at 25,000 miles on the stock 19” tires.. I am burning about 1/32nd at every rotation which I do at 5,000 miles. I will be looking to replace the tires between 30 and 35k miles. If you really want even wear make sure you do a reward cross rotation pattern, unless you have staggered wheels and tires. it’s a great car and very happy with my purchase, I would not hesitate recommending it to anyone looking for an EV.
@@itgoesfast2722 keep in mind though even with the lithium mining and even with the car running on electricity from fossil fuels it will go below an equivalent fossil fuel economy car after a couple years of driving. And that’s assuming the electricity is entirely from coal or fossil fuels, the grid can become cleaner and then the gains even more pronounced. Finally you can eventually power the car off renewable resources like the sun, and also the batteries in the car can be recycled and reused, whereas fossil fuels are pulled out of the earth, burnt into the air and you’re not getting that back. So yeah it’s not like the biggest thing you could do for environmental impact now it’s more of a smaller thing, and will get better with time as the grid sourcing improves. The real best way to lower emissions though would to be just stop buying material things you don’t need

Pretty crazy. I appreciate your support
The Model Y continues to be no brainer to buy. That said, why can’t they stick a retractable sunshade in the car? That baffles me.
They make them aftermarket. Not needed in many cooler states and not worth the headaches for tesla

I always park near the cart return. And yeah I love opening the trunk from the app while walking out of the grocery store.
Also from Scientific American, volcanoes produce less than 1% of the greenhouse gas emissions of human activity annually. But frankly it’s more about breathing in those emissions daily, as few people live amongst active volcanoes
As a new owner, the heat is really a bothering thing. But I almost have a complaint with the system rather than the roof. I believe the system is capable of outrunning the heat from the roof, but when I'm the only person in it, it doesn't want to turn on the passenger vent or rear vents. I really want them to unlock the software to full blast everything, and have it still auto. The seat is my biggest problem but it is mediated better when the rear vents are helping the other side of it stay cool.
When you are by yourself tap on the screen where the passenger vents are and it will activate it to turn on. On the left side of the screen there is a rear tab which will take you to the rear seat controls, etc. Once there look for the rear fan button.
@@craigwflys Yeah but I have to do that every time I get in the vehicle, I wish that I had an “ignore energy efficiency” button to just automatically run every vent
Maybe get a heavy sandbag and put it on the passenger seat 😁
I have 106k miles on my 2021 Model 3 LR after 34 months of ownership. First set of tires got 62k miles and 44k miles of current set. 110 miles round trip commute 5 days a week on country roads and some highway. Also a few 2k mile road trips. Drive the car normally with the occasional stoplight drag race to embarrass the young punks.
Wow, you must live in you car! LOL
@@sludog How long do you plan on keeping the car, until it breaks down? At the rate you drive you'll have 200,000 miles in less than six years.
@@burnx45 i’ll probably order another Tesla next fall and hand this car down to my wife who has a 2 mile commute. I usually start car shopping around 150,000 miles. She has my former hybrid that has almost 200,000 miles on it.
Awesome video, love the 600 pound life (wife) for the tires. Quote of the day. Stay safe my friend.
Your video style is just so good. I really like your videos.
I appreciate that!
Shopping Cart Theory ✌🏼
ur comment on how reliable combustion cars have gotten. early/first 1900's model t's would usually require a motor rebuild after 10k miles. maybe 20-30k if you were lucky. i think it had more to do with the roads back then. lots of reports of people needing to patch tires every other tank of gas, and gas only getting you 50 miles of range. these statistics are a bit hard to read though coz a lot of farmers bought model t's to basically use as tractors and farm vehicles. there was an option to go down to the railroad station and "pick up a truck bed conversion", hence the term pickup truck. i still cant believe the main break for early model t's was just an oil soaked cloth belt that clamped down on the transmission and hence the term emergency break was your backup break only for emergencies. i cant imagine either of those lasting very long. atleast there was right to repair lol
1st. Thank you Mr. Gjeebs 🚙
I learn a lot from your channel!
im at 37k miles on the original tires on my model Y and still have tread
What sunshade do you recommend for the model 3 and do you also use a windshield shade when parked?
vion.parts has one coming out that fits really well so that's what I am going with. I also showed one from Tparts that is nice in an accessories video
Thank you for your honesty..
Is there any way Tesla can upgrade the “processor” on your Tesla? a mean, change the “computer” for a new one?
As of right now there isn't but maybe in the future
What about vinyl/ leather bras for stone protection for my 2024 standard model y. I saw some nice ones on line with a great price. Why wrap the front end? I have not seen a seen a tesla yet with a bra. Anyone out there have a tesla with a faux leather? What do you like about it?
I had to replace my model 3 lr at almost 20k miles. Other than when I first got the car when I did a number of pedal to the floor to see how it did.....never though from a dead stop, I drive like a normal person...
Last week, I sold my 2021 M3LR with 33k miles. The tires still had at lease 10k more miles to go.
@Carguytct ibguess I need to drive in chill mode if I want my tires to last
Did you buy yours used? I thought you had a yoke in yours?
I bought it brand new. Never had a yoke but I did videos installing one on another Y
@Gjeebs I see, not your cup of tea huh? It took me about a day to get accustomed to it. Really enjoy it!
Volcanoes generally do not erupt daily.🙄
Not sure he thought it through. Lol. I think generally his point is he doesn't believe switching everyone from ice to ev will significantly impact climate change, no matter what the science says. Insert whatever analogy you want.
He's too smart not to know that forest fires (in Western US for instance) are in the increase due in large part to climate change, and that doing all we can to reverse that trend can't be a bad idea. So not entirely sure what his point was there. I will add I thought this was an excellent video.
Thanks for the video’s man! Keep it up bro! ❤
Has your sentry mode screwed up where you have to reboot it to make it work?
Nope
I love my MYP23. Love it. I have had many many luxury vehicles and sports cars. Maybe because I am older and have grown tired of oil changes and maintenance $. The car is fun and practical. My only hope is one day they make a true luxury cruiser sedan to match Lexus LS cars.
I do buy sticky summer tires and sent it up in the mountains all the time and get 10k miles on my tires.
But you aren't complaining so that's fine
@@Gjeebs I know full well what im doing. Did a 4 wheel skid uphill yesterday and left 4 tire tracks haha. Not great for longevity. I also send it full speed on gravel roads. Teslas are multi purpose. Also mine has caught air many times.
Do you always leave your sunroof cover in? I feel like it takes away from the panoramic view
Just for summer in Phoenix
Do you think you'll trade it in for the Juniper?
I plan on taking it to 100k miles. I will probably own them both at the same time
Got my 2021 YM LR and the basic accessories and I’ve been just driving. Nice car, easy to maintain. Spent a couple of months looking at every other vehicle before going full EV. Owning a Tesla is a little different than owning my RAV4. The Y suits my needs. I focus on the benefits not on what could go wrong. I drove a Prius for almost a decade and it was the same nonsense from the anti hybrid herd, what about the battery? What about it? Goes bad I buy a new one. Next.
Could you put time stamps in your videos.
Im surprised how expensive it is to go on a road trip using a tesla supercharger. probably more expensive than gas. I’ve been spending around $20 per charge and doing about 2-3 charges per day.
Tesla Y and others Tesla have no spare tire, the battery dropped 10% on first 8-9 months, after 13 months (it dropped another 15-17% battery). The original tires went out with us (at 21,300 miles) even we rotated the tires every 6,000 miles. The second set of tires lasted for 30,000 (rotated every 6,000 miles). It cost $1,500 for 4 tires. The third set of tires are coming up. Due to no spare tires, the tow truck tow our cars while we were on the way to the special event. The wheel cracked at 13,000 miles, Tesla wouldn't warranty, we had ended up to buy another wheel. We wouldn't buy another Tesla again. The Tesla was an over-prized for what we had paid for.
Tire wear is usually related to alignment
Where's the link to your child seat scratch protector? Need one now
It should be in the description but in case it isn't: amzn.to/3ViG0td
Another great video he’s killing it.
The average car emits 4 tons of co2 per year so please don’t minimize that impact. Good video otherwise.
Save money on wheels and buy aftermarket wheels.
8:55 How do you know what a used Rubber tastes like??😂🤣
FREE VACUUM for the WIN!!!
"That's someone's job" is the most annoying argument to the whole cart return debate. You don't throw your trash on the ground while you're in your local grocery store because "someone gets paid to pick it up." Absolute moron behavior imo
You’re funny and engaging, but your comment about how Volcanos emit so much CO2 it’s not worth transitioning to EV’s for the climate benefits was utter nonsense. Firstly when did you last see a volcano eruption, when did someone you know see a volcano erupt? Never? That’s because they are super rare - but more important they aren’t human activity. Do yourself a favor, since you run an EV based auto channel, go read about climate change before you spew unhelpful nonsense and false equivalencies.
Do you have FSD?
No
i love this guy
ben the goat
Well said, Thanks🥳
You don’t have a bunch of different rattles and creeks like I do in my interior?
I do as well, drives me insane because it’s so hard to find the source.
@@olley7692 I hate it. Have a 2020 MYP and starting at 50,000 miles, the rattles have been nonstop. it’s almost worth selling it. That’s how bad it annoys me.
After a lot of investigation, I found the source of rattles (that drove me crazy) in my 2022 model
Y. I found & fixed the problem. It was the metal seat posts in the two back seats. I removed the headrests and carefully bent the posts away from each other (or toward each other, I can't remember). This puts some slight tension on them and keeps them from rattling. It made such an enormous difference. I have no problem with interior noise now. Hope this helps.
@@bryandexter7874had the same issue as well.
that was a bit of an ignorant take - volcanoes and forest fires contribute more carbon to the atmosphere than a regular dude with a car would. forest fires are considered carbon neutral, because plants absorb the co2 and, in a forest fire, they release it back. the equivalent for us would be synthetic fuel, fuel that is carbon neutral, but that would require a massive number of fuel producing plants to meet the need.
however, due to climate change, acerbated by humans since the industrial revolution, we are seeing fires in places that haven't seen a fire in centuries - like the boreal forests for example - places which were too cold to ever see a fire. so sure, one can make the argument that carbon is carbon, however, cutting back on fossil fuels is beneficial, regardless if forest fires happen or not.
and to take a point out of your playbook, when you see a billy joe driving his truck to go get drive-thru, who works in an office and only buys that truck to feel macho, this whole thing is addressed to them, not to the guy who can only afford a civic or a corolla. the billy joe is the guy who doesn't put his carts back, doesn't recycle and so on...
New warranties on 2024 is 4 years 50 thousand miles Battery is is still 8 years 120,00 miles
Your rant about climate change really fried me. Climate change is real and if we had only natural carbon emissions such as volcanoes there wouldn't be climate change. I think the temperature will go up another 10 degrees or so in Arizona for you to enjoy.
Of course you shop at sprouts
I only go there on Wednesdays for $5 sushi
I own two Teslas and solar panels and Powerwall and it has nothing to do with saving the environment. I have the cars because they are phenomenal and I bought solar and Powerwall because I wanted a whole home backup and it is on track to pay for itself in 5 years then I will earn money from it for the next 20 years. It is idiotic not to do it.
What I want to know is how do you know what a "used rubber" tastes like? 😂
Was pretty confusing that you said your Model Y has the Intel Atom and then when you checked it said you have the AMD Ryzen 😂
I was just showing where to see it. That was from a new model 3
I'm pretty certain I DID tint my roof at Dynamic Tint because of your video when you first got the vehicle. Very annoying in this video you said you DIDNT tint the roof because it causes more heat. SMH
It doesn't cause more heat. I didn't say that in this video. Please show me where I did
@@Gjeebs 13m 12s mark. Maybe I misunderstood your comment?
Great channel.
Thank you
Super Star car wash free vacuum's all day.
Love the part re not driving a Tesla to save the planet, one volcano erupts and forget all the so called saved emissions. I thought I was the only Tesla driver that thought like that. Great to hear that someone else thinks like me as well. I have no desire to be a planet virtue signaler 👍
I think it's free with a car wash lol
IF Tesla ever significantly changes the exterior of the Tesla Model Y and/or 3 there will be a slew of used Tesla's hitting dealer lots. The are becoming boring to look at. I still can't tell the difference between the Y and the 3 on the highway/city streets. How much did you lose on depreciation over the course of 4 years when you sold.
Y and 3 are night and day difference
@@Brian-rm8dn Agreed. No problem at distinguishing them. Even from a distance.
Your free vacuum scam is over I let Elon know he’s sending out an OTA update that will lock the car if you don’t pay for the vacuum 😂
looks like your drinking a 40 lol
I was but with water
Completely agree with your last point. For me, it’s just a better vehicle. But it’s still powered by coal and natural gas.
Still more efficient. EV’s don’t “idle” wasting gas polluting at stop lights. Electricity is never wasted in a Tesla.
We have a solar roof in Florida, and some regions are mostly clean’ish energy sourced, like the predominantly hydroelectric powered Pacific Northwest. Even in those backwards regions that still rely heavily on fossil fuels a Tesla is far more efficient than a gasoline burning car. Plenty of analysis published on this subject.
Dude, the reason it’s ALL OF OUR CONCERN is because there are BILLIONS of vehicles emitting poison. You wanna compare to a couple dozen rocket launches? Are you serious?
There are actually over 200 rocket launches each year.
@@dcam456still produce a fraction of a fraction of a fraction of car emissions. A falcon 9 emits like 200 tons of co2 whereas globally we emit 3.5 billion tons of emissions from cars every year. 200 rockets at 200 tons is 40k tons a year from rockets. You’d have to launch over 17 million falcon 9s per year to get close to the yearly car co2 emissions.
I do own a 2023 model y and love it. As far as saving the planet remember every electric car basically runs on a combination of coal and natural gas so your burning fossil fuel and emitting emissions to move an electric car down the road. And let’s not even talk about the mining and production process in making that battery and eventually disposing of the battery. Mine is just over a year old and I have 27500 miles. I had 5/32nd of tread remaining at 25,000 miles on the stock 19” tires.. I am burning about 1/32nd at every rotation which I do at 5,000 miles. I will be looking to replace the tires between 30 and 35k miles. If you really want even wear make sure you do a reward cross rotation pattern, unless you have staggered wheels and tires. it’s a great car and very happy with my purchase, I would not hesitate recommending it to anyone looking for an EV.
@@itgoesfast2722 keep in mind though even with the lithium mining and even with the car running on electricity from fossil fuels it will go below an equivalent fossil fuel economy car after a couple years of driving. And that’s assuming the electricity is entirely from coal or fossil fuels, the grid can become cleaner and then the gains even more pronounced. Finally you can eventually power the car off renewable resources like the sun, and also the batteries in the car can be recycled and reused, whereas fossil fuels are pulled out of the earth, burnt into the air and you’re not getting that back.
So yeah it’s not like the biggest thing you could do for environmental impact now it’s more of a smaller thing, and will get better with time as the grid sourcing improves. The real best way to lower emissions though would to be just stop buying material things you don’t need
The more efficient way is to eliminate private jets and work down the chain
so we are still doing "Porsh", okay.
Dude wants to complain about volcanos cuasing global warming?
