Duh, my name is Homer Simpson 🤣

 

Amazing, my car is going back to the service center next week and I never get an option for a tech to come to my house. Would be great if that was offered to me.

 

Well, they ended up telling me that I needed to take it in, just in case they needed to change the bottom cover. Turns out what I thought was rubber molding was one of the brush pieces that got stuck and came off lol. So I cancelled the service

 

LOL yeah I saw that above.

 

Model Y scheduled maintenance




Seriously? No wonder my mechanic hates me now . And why dealerships don't look forward to EV's going mainstream...

 

^^^ haha

 

So Tesla owners, you are in for a treat tonight. On midnight, Jan 1st, your Tesla will perform a light show. If you are around other Tesla's, it will synchronize with them. Unfortunately I am heading to my brother in laws house, and we are taking the German Shepherd due to the fireworks in our area (which freak her out), so we will be taking the dog car, our Sienna to his house. I tried to see if I could fit her carrier in the Y, but it's too tall, and she is just to stinky, and shedding way to much to put her in the Y (it's been too cold to give her a bath). But, I will video my brother in laws Model 3 at midnight!

Just discovered that the latest Parking Assist update not only shows you parking lines, but the leaves on the ground as well!

 

Park assist is cool as heck. But, fly in ointment is I really think it needs higher rez cameras like in hardware 4. Still, it's becoming more and more clear why Tesla hasn't gone with a traditional birds eye view this is many factors more advanced. Frustrating that it is taking so long.

 

I have no doubt that Tesla is going to eventually surpass "Birds eye view" parking assist being used by other car makers, but it's going to take time to do that, as the updates are incremental. But it's really cool to see the improvements over time

 

My car doesn't have that view. Bummer, from what I have researched Model S cars that have USS do not get this update/view.

 

You should really consider moving to either a Model 3P (Highland) or a Model Y Performance. They are nowhere near the level of your Plaid in performance, but they perform really well, and are solid. I know tons of people with both Model 3 and Model Y's and have had no issues with them. One of my friends is still driving his 2018 Model 3 with over 100K on it. I plan to keep mine at least 8 years

 

Why does every Model 3/Y owner try to convince someone who very deliberately bought an S to ditch the S and get a 3/Y? Lol

Totally different demographic and completely different car. I just find it funny - nothing personal at you or trying to trivialize the "pros" of practicality (MY)/(M3) cost vs. S.

Clearly for Patgilm , it's not because of cost reasons that he got an S and the Y may be more "practical", but not by a whole lot.

 

Not trying to convince him, it's just that with the amount of issues he's had with this particular car, maybe he should consider other options. Of course Pat is someone who likes to change cars, so maybe he should consider another Plaid. Personally with all the problems he's had, I would have either tried to force Tesla to buy it back, or would have moved on to another car, even if it meant losing some money
