I'm 54 and my wife and I are VERY worried about our future, gas and food prices rising daily. We have had our savings dwindle with the cost of living into the stratosphere, and we are finding it impossible to replace them. We can get by, but can't seem to get ahead. My condolences to anyone retiring in this crisis, 30 years nonstop just for a crooked system to take all you worked for.
I feel your pain mate, as a fellow retiree, I’d suggest you look into passive index fund investing and learn some more. For me, I had my share of ups and downs when I first started looking for a consistent passive income so I hired an expert advisor for aid, and following her advice, I poured $30k in value stocks and digital assets, Up to 200k so far and pretty sure I'm ready for whatever comes...
@@CharlesBenjamin-q That's actually quite impressive, I could use some Info on your FA, I am looking to make a change on my finances this year as well
@@NancyBetty-x My advisor is VICTORIA CARMEN SANTAELLA
You can look her up online
@@CharlesBenjamin-q The crazy part is that those advisors are probably outperforming the market and raising good returns but some are charging fees over fees that drain your portfolio. Is this the case with yours too?
I wish everyone spoke like you do (no upspeak) and design and edit their videos like you. Nicely done!
I’ve been watching Tesla videos for about three months. By far the best one yet. Nice job.
I agree with you. I absolutely love my Model Y, but may be open to a different EV in the future. Tesla needs to step up the quality and customer service for the prices they are charging.
Good news! I think the best upgrade options yoke steering wheel+titanum lugnuts. Let me know if you're interested in adding any of these accessories to your own amazing Tesla!
not many good EV mid-size suv
The quality and customer service of Tesla is outstanding. I have an MX and an M3. I would like to test out a Y. The only problem is that acceleration is so fast that you will get a speeding ticket if you are not careful. Love the comfortable and very quiet Rides!
it's not a quality problem, it's a fit and finish problem. Quality is state and performance of the car which Tesla is far better than the rest and they're improving on their finishing too
@@Omega---13 There is zero point to improve let say acceleration from 6s to 3s all you get is to buy new tires sooner and nothing else. Range is what people want more but there are already few other brand which are almost neck to neck about range.
I have an updated version of this video 1 year later!

This video was so accurate and well done. I agree with the price increase not being worth it. I ended up getting the model X because the model Y at the time increased dramatically to $85k. I wanted the model Y because like he said, it checks all the boxes for most. But when the price increased so much in a short period of time, it honestly just was not luxurious enough to justify it. It is a tech car that’s fun, it’s not a luxury brand. I agree with him too- once it’s time for me to consider another car again, due to the quality issues- i may end up going back to previous luxury brands instead too.
I know this is weird, but can I ask what do you do for a living as a fellow black person? I'm trying to change careers to tech/IT so I can afford a EV.
model y cost $40k in my country
@@brannonkelly7094 get you some Oracle cloud certificates and you'll be good.
Great Video, thanks. I gotta say, I have owned Mercedes for the last 25 years, and many of the same problems surface on brand new mercedes suvs. engines quit/die. car fails to start because of a switch or sensor, and on and on. Power steering units fail, and last of all , fit and finish issues as well. brake issues. most of my friends are loyal bmw guys, and even more issues with bimmers, so I honestly believe that ANY mass produced vehicle , no matter what engine or drive train will have similar issues, that once in a while , cannot be avoided.
I owned Japanese cars to avoid the reasons you and the video creator noted. I bought a 2015 Accord that I sold in 5 years after 70k miles and currently driving a RAV4 hybrid driven for about 25K miles, and let me tell you not a single issue in both my cars except for oil change and tire rotation every 10k miles or every 9 months. Mind you I can actually afford a German car, but just hate their reliability.
Thank you. Excellent, down to earth, short, concise, get to the point review. As another commenter mentioned, I agree with you 100%. Keep up the great job!
I've had my Model Y Performance for 12 months. 30k miles driven. Refilled the window wiper fluid twice. Replaced the 2 rear tires from wear and tear with Tesla which cost me about $1,000. No other service issues. In July 2021 I paid 68k out the door. Wrapped the car and ceramic coated the entire vehicle for $10k.
1. Exterior and interior is a cheaper quality compared to other car companies.
2. Manually closing the front trunk correctly can be difficult at times.
3. Acceleration is amazing, but the ride is bumpy compared to other premium crossovers.
4. The touchscreen is the most responsive and user-friendly compared to any other vehicle manufacturer in the market.
5. The Tesla fast-charging network is #1 compared to other car companies.
6. So much fun to drive. I'm probably never going to buy another ICE vehicle.
7. Quality of life improvements make getting in and out of your car extremely easy.
$10K to wrap and ceramic coat your ride? You got ripped off.
Even though I had an MX and have the Cybertruck and MY on order, I think the Etrons are cooler cars. If Tesla allows supercharging for other brand EVs, an Etron may be a better luxury EV choice for me. Better paint, better feeling materials, premium interior, fun to drive, better design and more unique, too.
I know you said you won’t buy another ICE, but how about hybrids?
@@tr7287 hybrids are silly
Good comments Victor.
Now tell the truth.....Are you wearing out your tires because you're having fun blowing the doors off every ICE you meet at a red light????
HAHAHA!
Great honest straight to the point review! I haven’t come across a review that doesn’t mention design flaws or early month service tickets. This is the only thing stopping me from buying a Tesla
A friend of mine’s heat went out twice right in the midst of cold weather. It’s a no for me.
@@EB-ok3io To put things in perspective, our Ford Explorer is on recall #7. They tell you not to drive the car because it's unsafe...but they don't have parts to fix the issue and don't know when they will have parts. So frustrating. I had one minor issue with my Tesla model 3 (a window air leak at high speeds) and the mobil service came to my work and fixed it in the parking lot. You won't get that service from your local dealership.
do Teslas give u a loaner if they need to service it over a day?
@@TrendyStone that's why there's a lemon law, return it and get your money back. Get a lawyer if you have to.
@@Acsantes73 You misunderstood. The recalls have been general recalls for 2016 model year Ford Explorers. The car isn't a lemon; Ford just has a ton of recalls. My daughter drives a Ford Fusion and it's on reall #4.
From the news you'd think Tesla is the only company that has ever had a recall.
So glad I found your channel, I too live in Michigan. I've almost pulled the trigger a few times on a EV, and every time I back out due to cold and winter range loss. It feels that now the EV sales are slowing, availability will be better.
The most honest review I’ve seen, “Tesla are not premium, except for the price”. Wow not the bumper was falling off 😂
its cause u can't afford one lol
The Y now with with Performance is $49k including their “7500”
Government subsidy. So they did drop in price a fair bit.
We absolutely love our 3 after 4 months, and can’t wait to get our Y soon (8 month wait). I wish we could keep both. Our 3 has had no issues, on delivery or afterwards. I think they are definitely working on the quality issues.
And like you said, you could get more range if you drove without so much acceleration, but that’s no fun. Lol
What makes you “think” they are working on quality issues? Thinking in one hand and reality in the other hand are two different things. Just thinking it, doesn’t make it so. Tesla has had many years to fix quality issues and I haven’t seen any major changes to that currently. I have a Tesla service/sales(pickup) center nearby that has a good dozen teslas waiting for service. My local collision center where my cousin works gets many newish Teslas that need a lot of work. One example is the missing undercoating spray. Another popular one is body panels, such as the rear bumper cover falling off. I’m a big Elon fan but he seriously needs to get his Tesla company on track as I’d like to buy one but not willing to deal with all the flaws and cheap interior for $70k+
@@maverickreviewed7894 how about for $56k? 🥳
How much do you make a year to afford a 3 and a Y?
@@GizmoMaltese he traded in the 3 for the y
4 months is brand new, everybody loves their car at 4 months
Great video dude! I just got my Y a few weeks ago.
Thx
Good news! I think the best upgrade options yoke steering wheel+titanum lugnuts. Let me know if you're interested in adding any of these accessories to your own amazing Tesla!
Just ordered my model Y performance today. $53,990 and it meets all tax rebates so glad the prices came down 10 grand and I'll get it in three weeks 😊
Same here
They called today and said it was in did I want it a day early. It's in the drive after ordering 8 days ago and I looked it up and down in out you name it. My wife's 2021 model 3 was made in Fremont and panel gaps were bad. Freemont has stepped it up this thing is flawless.
Crazy that the Model Y now is 34k 😳
J Cole's brother is crazy knowledgeable ☺️ thanks for all the info provided in this vid
I ain’t hear that in a min.
The price increase is because the Tesla Model Y is the only Tesla that fully qualifies for the tax reduction of $7500 for buying an EV vehicle. Tax Exemption law was passed during the 2022 Inflation Reduction Act or whatever it's called. The other Teslas only qualify for $3500. Buying EV is a really good idea right now because of that tax exemption bit added in last year, but the cars have to me be basically made and primarily sourced in the U.S; so, the list isn't very long
This was a great video. Super easy to follow and no fluff. Idk if I’ll watch any of your other stuff but I’m subbing just to support. Great job!
$64k?!? I just picked up my 2024 MYLR last week. I paid extra for white seats, tow hitch and ultra red paint. After tax incentive and discount on Tesla site: $44,800. I am loving it. It took 16 days from the day I ordered to when I was driving it off the lot.
I got mine in 2 weeks 😂😂😂😂 the Tesla dealership was amazing
I suppose if that Tesla charger is out of stock (and you know you'll be buying a tesla). You might as well get that thing well in advance and even have it hooked up in your garage. Then at least you know you'll have it and you can come home on day 1 and charge. It would be cool to have electric snowblower, lawnmower with tesla batteries too! all of them charging with the same plug. That would be awesome!
Honestly, i'm not too crazy about fit and finish (those panel gaps). I own the new lexus rx and there are some gaps too. The most important parts to pay attention are if the car fully functional, sensors are working properly, battery is good, steering wheel is good, there shouldn't be any rattle noises, lights are light up when on, brake lights are on when brake, these are things to focus.
Tbh a Corolla or even Prius probably has all of that ticked just not an ev. When you pay this much you uneeded but nice to have premium stuff
@@sentryion3106 Agreed, and also prius or Corolla is way cheaper than a tesla. Drive them 10 years is still cost cheaper than a new Tesla.
Hello Kevin,
Please get Blizzaks or Nokian haakapelitta
Winter tires. You won't be disappointed on ice and snow driving. I live in Colorado, that's all we use in the winter. It like driving on dry pavement even if it's icy.
Yeah I've been a big fan of Blizzaks, I had them on G8 back in the day!
What I needed to hear, thank you.
My concern is using the screen, whist driving. Yes there's voice commands and steering wheel control. However; taking your eyes of the road for one second can be fatal.
Without saying the NEMA number/descriptor (explaining the amperage and voltage, and the plug type), saying “a NEMA plug” is meaningless. They’re all NEMA plugs, that’s just a standard. You can have a NEMA plug that is the same as your household 110/120v outlet, which will charge the car in ~24 hours or so, or a 220/240v plug (like welders would use) that will charge the car in 4-8 hours. Obviously it depends on the charge state of the car, though, on how long it takes. But every Tesla adapter for the mobile connector is a NEMA plug/adapter.
We all need more of these kinds of real-life, customer reviews. I drive less than 20 miles per day in mostly excellent warm weather in SC. Kevin, after viewing your video I decided not to purchase a FISKEER EV I had booked and went for a Hybrid RAV4! less than half the model Y or fisker Ocean price, and neat features. The fenders reportedly stay in place, and the vehicle gets a lot done with radars and fewer cameras, making simple repairs not expensive. Just imagine the cost of repairing a fender-bender on a Y. Those crazy number of sensors will make repairs extremely expensive and even unreliable.
You clearly have no clue about Teslas sensors 😂
I wanna know which premium EV SUV that you compare the Model Y with, when you say the interior quality is bad. Is it the Kia EV6?
FYI - Our electric company reimbursed us for the cost of the Tesla Wall Connector. Many people that don't want to spend the $500 might not realize there are incentives to add a level 2 charger in your home in many states.
Watching this video after the price cut… model y long range is $49,990
I don’t really care about the negatives, the negatives aren’t that bad compared to regular cars. What I care about is it being able for me to travel. Compared to what I got now, the Tesla is a luxury car. So yeah I’m subbing heh 😅
That Hummer EV 🥵
I miss mine so bad. Value for money- not sure if there's a competition for Tesla out there. what do you guys think?
And now it’s $13,000 cheaper. Good luck reselling that thing!
Love this review. The first I’ve heard of many of these pros and cons. Appreciate your contribution on the Tesla Y research!
A "premium" vehicle, doesn't even come with home link to open the garage door. Available for $350.00. Come on Elon, WTF?
Yeah, ridiculous that lower priced cars come with homelink but it’s extra with Tesla. I was thinking of getting it but didn’t, couldn’t justify the price. I’ll keep pushing my remote button for free and use that $300 for something more worth it.
Thanks Kevin, I got the exact same configuration white on white preformance model Y with fsd in April 22, the fsd dose make driving more relaxed but it gets confused on small roads when there is a change in the painted road lines, (if the dont match uo) shutting itself off. Your driving is unfavorably scored by this error (forced shut-offs) even though its the fsd problem.
I heard if your score is below 97 you can't get the beta (up-graded software). I'm at 92 curently, Other compaints with the fsd, it sticks to the same speed when going around sharp corners in the road so it is a bit jerky and feels like its speeding up. It sometimes dose not see speed signs (especially when the signs are caution signs in yellow here in VT) In small towns with narrow streets it drives way to close to the parked cars, if somone opened a door or stepped out between the cars an accident could occure.
Most of the time the fsd is pretty good at keeping in the center of the road, however when there is a string of cars coming in the oppisite direction and the road is curving on the drivers side, the fsd goes very close to the center line, and the on coming trafic. My safty habit is to leave more room in case one of the on coming cars swirves a little across the line, but if you do this it will disengage the fsd.
Another anoyance is sometimes it comes to an almost dead stop if there is a blinking yellow light, I'v gotten used to this and just accelerate, however if there are drivers directly behind you they can find it anoying. All said, I lreally like the car otherwise, however I live in the mountians on a long steep gravel driveway that gets a ton of snow in the winter so will have to see how well it dose?
FSD and low range is why I sold my MX. My MX would not stop at a stop sign in a quiet area, requesting intervention to stop. I just think it doesn't work. Why would anyone buy a preproduction product? It would only invite criticism.
I just drove a model three for the first time today after selling my 2022 3 series back to the dealer. I'm surprised that nobody talks about how uncomfortable the model three seats are for tall people. The seat cushion needs to be at least another 3 inches longer or at least have an extension option. It's potentially a deal killer for me
I can't stand the Tesla interiors. It's like you bought a cheap Chevy with plastic interiors. I can't go back to that.
@@GizmoMaltese wrong my model S and X are comfortable af.
The seats aren’t wide enough with too much bolstering. I find the rear seat to be more comfy than the front.
Hey man! I just discovered your channel! Thanks for the review! We also took delivery of our MYLR December 24, 2021 here in Minnesota - how weird is that?. So, our MYLR is now 6 months old.
We also got the tow hitch and Blue paint so ours cost the same as yours. In February I realized how crazy high the resale value was soooo.... on March 1, 2022 I ordered a blue MYP with a tow hitch and 3 days later the prices went up as you know. Took delivery of the MYP on June 18 and getting it wrapped with a clear "prism" PPF so it changes from deep blue to deep purple depending on viewing angle. Now, I need to sell the MYLR and it looks like that resale value is still more than what I paid for the MYP.
.....I also got the messages for "camera blocked" messages too, mainly due to condensation in the B-Pilar cameras. Car in warm humid garage, then it goes out in the cold air and that little camera window fogs up.
The MYP seems to have much better fit/alignment than the MYLR, both Fremont built cars.
Curious about where you are in Michigan. I grew up in Detroit (Greenfield & Puritan) in the 1960s & 1970s then moved to Minnesota in 1977 for work and ended up staying here. My wife and I are planning a trip to visit friend & relatives in the Detroit area. Be a hoot and a half to meet you someplace along the way.
Cheers dude!
One of the best and most articulate reviews I have watched!...thank you for taking the time to do the video. Very helpful! :-)
It has been recommended to not go cheap on the electrical outlet. It's cheaper for a reason and charging a car with it could cause problems. Be safe and only buy quality electrical outlets.
Good news! I think the best upgrade options yoke steering wheel+titanum lugnuts. Let me know if you're interested in adding any of these accessories to your own amazing Tesla!
I've been on this one for 5 years in total between the 3 and Y, and installed by a profession electrician, so far so good.
Just got MYP last week. It is an awesome car, but yes, the quality of the interior could have been a little more premium. That said, technology is definitely ahead of the game.

If you think you should get a luxury interior for that price, are you willing to give up that tech? Don't you think you are paying for the tech, and not necessarily for the luxury? How many cars go from 0-60 in low 3 secs? Those vehicles are usually in the hundreds of thousands of dollars, or even over million dollars. Just sayin......
Omg. I road in an autonomous model y yesterday and it drove like a human. They have come so far. They are only like 45k now.
We love our Tesla y. The features we are sorely missing are a light on the relevant rear view mirrors when there is someone in the blind spot on either side. If one has a blinker on to move into an occupied blindside, a chime would ring on the relevant side. Blind spot warning can track continuously and draws attention to the surroundings if needed.
The other thing that would prevent accidents would be cross traffic warning for the back of the car, for card or people walking by. Please please please add these features.
I would definitively miss LED matrix, head up display and a 360 camera. These are things that I have on my almost half the price Mazda CX5.
Wish they would add Heads up display. I have it on my mid engine Vette and miss it on the Tesla.
I have been searching for the best EV cars and checked out MB and others but Tesla comes on top even with other dislikes.
I test drove a MYP a couple months ago, and it sure is quick in a straight line and handles turns really well. Great turning radius. The suspension is not up to par with traditional auto makers though. I really like it, and have put in an order for one. But I’m not sure if I’m gonna go through with it. I feel like Tesla is starting to price themselves out of the market. Along with reports of poor service/support, overwhelming orders and rushed production, it’s making it tough to think it’s a wise purchase at north of $70k. Nice succinct review Kevin!
For what it's worth; I'm super happy with the build quality of my Model 3 and very pleasantly surprised by the service. My charge port needed some adjusting and they came to my driveway to fix it in 30 minutes. The savings on fuel alone make it worth it (i have solar panels).
the price is based on demand. if people stop lining up for it the price will go back down

Here is the problem with electric cars.
Its the fact that you electric car drivers think the rest of us should be driving one of those coal burners. Never gonna happen, at least with people like me that see the hypocrisy in your way of life, thinking you're "saving" the planet. You're not, you're contributing a massive carbon footprint with those damn polluting things. I.E., battery production and disposal. But, enjoy your electric "coal" burner.
@@jooptablet1727 I think the savings are only worth it if you're gonna spend the same money on another car.
Having a TV in your dash used to be considered a hazard, now its “high-tech” 😂 Tesla’s are cool though, I appreciate the thought behind the brand. Im sure 10-20 yrs from now they will improve dramatically. I would not buy one rn unless I was rich though.
Had mine for a month and absolutely love it.

Great video! You answered all of my questions. I especially liked hearing how much it actually cost to install the wires. I was quoted the same amount since my box is far as well. I have a model 3 and was equally looking to trade it in for the y- especially since the price has gone down so much! But word on the street is a redesigned model Y Is on the horizon. So, i think ill just wait it out.
Thx for the great review!! I’m thinking of getting the Y performance and since I’m on the west coast, I’m not too concerned about cold weather performance. Are you based on the east coast?
Great video! Is your Y a 2021 or 2022? I have one on order that’s supposed to be delivered in November or December and I’d rather have a 2023 than a 2022.
At what point do they start giving people the 2023
Nice review.
I am trying to finish my last details to pick one up. Your fender issue is funny.. nott funny ha ha, funny strange. No fan boy here either. But it has got the best tech for me, at least for now.
I am curious, did you get the auto park and summons acti step in yours? I hot what I saw as a last minute notice that there are no longer radar sensors being used, so autopark and summons are "temporarily unavailable " until an update comes out. Does yours have the round radar sensors?
Thanks again gor the review.
Hi
I haven't gone through all your videos yet, but based on build quality, functionality and range alone, which EV would be at the top??Or how would you position them from most desirable to least desirable??
They all suck.
Very good overview of your experiences, thank you. I’ve one on order with the upgraded interior and self driving but not the full package as that doesn’t work here in Great Britain. Ours will come from China so hopefully the build will be better than your America-built one !. I, like you will be looking around in a few years time as there’s plenty of choice out there but right now the Tesla charging network and their software is superior to anything else around. Then again at my age Im thinking this may be the last car I every buy, hopefully it will see me out !.

Prices have come down... a Model Y Performance like you configured would cost $60K and you can get $7500 tax credit.
Exactly, there are other options out there for an EV. In my looking around at the other options - Ford MachE, Kia EV6, etc. Those cars were serious contenders. But to get their vehicle as close to the same build as Tesla as possible - AWD, the longest range you can get with their car, and by the time the unscrupulous dealers mark it up you are paying Tesla prices. So, at least for me if I am going to pay Tesla prices I may just as well buy the Tesla. Especially since the Tesla is widely regarded as being years ahead of the competition in their technology as well as experienced in this new platform of electric vehicles .
Plus, can't forget about the whole charging network thing if you travel.
id get it just for the safety, a couple months ago some dude in California purposely drove his family off a 250ft cliff on purpose, all 4 passengers survived, and the dude was arrested. none of the rescue crew expected to find even 1 person alive.
EV is the future.

Excellent review, I think there should be traditional knobs and buttons for most used functions, like the fan or the wipers, currently having balancing issues, which the dealer does not cover under warranty. But over all love my 2021 model Y. But I think the thing that sets teslas apart from the other evs is the supercharger network on long distance routes.
paying 100k for basic minial interior etc. is bull dump
@@theresidetective1646 It was designed that way. Does your car have customizable features, software updates, Supercharger network, BEST SAFETY RECORD, etc. No? I thought so. Also, Model Y isn't 100k.
The worse thing about Teslas? The mediocre design. It looks like a car designed by accountants. I wouldn't be caught in one
@@bodrulm1then why are you even wasting your time watching a tesla video 🤪
Sorry I'm not paying that much for those problems
Well yeah. Don’t pay for more than what you can afford.
@@dogbots159 I could afford the car, I just don't think it's worth what it's asking price not it's issues.
No one is asking you to pay. The car is awesome
@@yatinkheti2427 stupid response of a fanboy. You pay for something like this expecting quality. Not this.
@@yatinkheti2427yes
Thanks for the honest review. I will also be trading in my white/black 3P for a white/white YP (possibly this week). There are definitely quirks you have to deal with owning a Tesla (silly panel fitment, no CarPlay, etc.) but I do love the minimalist interior, the buying experience and quite a few other things.
Good to know
Hopefully this delivery goes better for you. We had no panel issues on our M3 we got in June. And our other car has CarPlay, and it’s useless without a giant screen. I much prefer the Tesla format, but do wish we could get some more apps.
I am not missing all the buttons, but I know some people do. To each their own! I love that it doesn’t feel like a plain ‘ol car.
Thank you for your unbiased opinions. Greatly appreciated
Excellent personality and great review. I looked at several videos and this one stood out. Well done sir! New subscriber here. Keep it up!
Hey, here in Michigan too. I know you like performance, but what’s your thoughts on long range? Not driving long distances, but think it will be a better battery. ?? With price drop is it worth it now? Also, what happens to buyers who bought at higher price?
Question for you: did you install PPF/ceramic coat on your Model Y? If you did or did not, any feedback about it? How’s the car look if you did not get it
I did not. My model 3 had many many rock chips. The Y had a few well and if expect it to be the same.
@@Techninjaspeaks thanks for the reply. I will not be getting it either. Just wanted to see your thoughts…it’s refreshing to see people not make it out to be a necessity and understand rock chips are going to happen. It’s a car at the end of the day, it is what it is.
Interesting, Richard Symonds (RSymonds on CZcams) highly recommends PPF especially if its a black painted car, he did a piece about it recently, worth.a look at what he says on the subject
I actually got both on mine, but I only did PPF on the front half of the vehicle. That along with the ceramic coating was around $1200 US
Great review, in 5 years the market is going to look so much better IN the EV space mainly due to expected improvements in tech
Tesla future competition, Nio, Mullen Automotive and FFIE
12k for the autopilot??? And it was 3k dammn they raising prices insane.
Thank Kevin for your review! I got a lot of interesting details regarding Y. Great value
would be interesting to have another tesla even though my model s 14` used to ha some workshop-visits and the frameless windows caught the rubber and thought the windows would break :/
Now is the time to buy with the discount 😎
After 3 years of owning a Model 3 I agree with you that white seats are a non-issue.
Great video! Kevin, you're the man
Good news! I think the best upgrade options yoke steering wheel+titanum lugnuts. Let me know if you're interested in adding any of these accessories to your own amazing Tesla!
Great you help me out. Was looking to purchase inventory Model Y for 47k. But I think I will stay with fuel burner. To many unknowns with EV's. Mileage is my biggest concern. Thanks for real world review.
Nice review. Thank you! I've had S75 dual motor 4 years now. I NEVER keep cars that long but I have no desire to move on. Is it refined like my GS 430. S430, E55, SL550, BMW 750L? NO!! I loved all of those (except HMS Lexus). But the Tesla responds like a car should IMO and I'm not going back to gas. (My "commute" is < 20 mi fwiw). Researching Y to replace wife's highlander.
Nice review! But, ''other companies making compelling evs'' yeh... at what cost and are they as good as promised? The Hummer did all that drive assist too, what is the price tag of that carr? The Tesla service needs to be better! Yes, i totally agree with you. Thanks👍👍
Very interesting, detailed review with great shots of the vehicle!

Crazy how the price has changed. This same build is now 51k.
When he said $70K I was like damn 😮
Kevin, your perspective is so good, I'm watching your 6-month and 1-year reviews. They are both very informative. Thanks!!
Thank you 🤗🫡
I just spec'd your version out, it's only $64k now, and then subtract the $7500 credit is only $56.5k
Love it, thanks for the honest review. $72k for a non-premium SUV that still has fit & finish issues?! Bumper falling off? Sensor problems they can't fix? Sorry, but these are the kinds of things that would annoy the heck out of me at that price point. I expect a lot for my money, I guess.
The $30 iNEMA plug can burn down your home, get a better outlet your family I am sure is worth more than $30. Hubbell is $85-130 but is a daily usage plug and not a weekly oven, dryer usage outlet.
I live in Michigan also- Do you have a video specifically on your winter experience
Selling my Model Y after 1.5 years of ownership and 28k miles.
Currently driving a Mercedes EQC and my lease is due for renewal soon. Contemplating switching to Tesla but the simple interior sucks in my opinion, and the build quality worries me for the amount of money I am paying
Man that’s crazy. It’s now 2024 March and model wise are $20,000 cheaper. Y’all really got ripped off sucks man but what can you do you know
Why would anyone pay that kind of money for vehicle with those defects? The range on these are terrible for long road trips and as you point out the battery performance is degraded in winter driving. I agree with you, competition is the only thing that is going drive the quality up and the prices down on Tesla, until then you will pay a premium price to join the Telsa Cult. Just stare into the mighty T and you will be converted!
What defects ? It’s an incredible piece of kit !
I swapped an X5 MSPORT for it !
The first 3 weeks of MY ownership I had both cars
The X5 felt like a fucking antique ! Honestly
The range on any EV is bad for a real road trips, that's why I still have a suburban. The only issue I ever had was the plastic cover under the front that can come loose and break off in pieces. What makes Tesla better is the charging network is great compared to the others. I would prefer a Rivian our a Hummer but the other charging networks are to far in between and hit or miss.
Right on Kevin. I'm a 70+ year old who picked up a model Y about 9 months ago and the experience was terrible. I'd prefer to deal with a company that treats you like a customer. However, the engineering of the car is very good.
I agree. Check out my video comparing it to Mach-E
Why are there no all season or snow tires available with the 21s
Great review man!
I appreciate your objectivity
HI KEVIN, I OWN 2021 TESLA MODEL Y LONG RANGE AND NOW WOULD LIKE TO UPGRADE TO 2023 MODEL Y PERFORMANCE. DO YOU THINK ITS A GOOD DEAL WHAT TESLA OFFERING RIGHT NOW?
I’m looking to get the model y performance by the end of the year. I’m not looking forward to that price jump but I think I’m still sold on it. If you are are in Rosedale Park, hit me up bro.
Great review! Done very well. FYI Model Y performance 0-60 is way higher than the 3.2 you mentioned :P. Model 3 is 3.1 for the performance and in top best conditions with rollout removed. Seriously though, out of the hundreds of reviews I've watched this was a great, fair and honest review. Well done.
planning to buy a tesla model y performance, but having second thoughts because of the price increased, starting at 69,000 with tax and everything its going to be close to 80,000 do yall think its still worth it for that price?
Man, that is a tough decision. I have the MYLR and love it! Due to having solar panels I pretty much charge for free. My wife just recently got her Model 3 and she loves it too. A part of me doesn't want to recommend people buy at these prices, but then another part of me thinks these cars are just a no brainer, IF and only IF you are looking at a comparable car. Almost all dealerships are adding a crazy mark up, or as they call, "price adjustment" on their cars, so when you take that into account, a Tesla makes way more sense.
My only question, can you setup custom commands? for when you want to pass someone or merge into fast traffic you could say Hi Tesla , "PUNCH IT" AND BE IN THE FASTEST MODE POSSIBLE , and after the passing or merging, you could say Hi Tesla "Chill it" and switch back to the energy saving mode.
Right now you can get the model Y long range for $52k plus the $7500 tax rebate that’s in effect for the next few months. So basically $45k for a brand new model Y long range. Is it worth it for that price?
How are you getting 7500 back? And of course that’s an amazing price.
Too simple, too expensive. Good review...
Curious what you think about NIO's new models?
Have u seen the model y prices right now the cheapest is $46,990
He played himself
You are very underrated
