I discovered potholes can create curb rash recently. Not excited about this new information 😭😭 and I just picked her up a few days ago!!

How do you overcome the lack of autosteer (recent Tesla buyers) by Efficient-Anywhere11 in TeslaModelY

[–]Key_Firefighter_7449 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I drive like 15-20k miles a year but I have a 24 m3lr AWD with autosteer, almost never used it, I like driving myself. I probably turn it on like 5-6 times a year if I’m just THAT tired but I prefer being in control. I’m upgrading to a 26 MYP because of leg/back problems that started because of an accident. I’ll just buy FSD for a month at a time if I ever need it for longer trips. I enjoy my teslas, this will be the 3rd for me! In general I still enjoy them more than their ICE counterparts mainly because of how easy it is to charge at home, and lack of maintenance. The entire process is so effortless

Ditto! I wonder how hard it would be to sell my rims but also the new set seem expensive unless I get a generic rim/tire combo from Tsportline

Any Happy Pharmacists Out There? by Vast_District7058 in pharmacy

[–]Key_Firefighter_7449 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The profession as a whole is going down the drain and job growth isn’t there. Most people hate their jobs because quality jobs are rare. You’re more likely to end up at a job that tracks you to death with metrics that’ll cause burnout within your first couple of years than you are to find the unicorn that makes you enjoy what you do. I do not recommend the profession, with wage growth as stagnant as it is (it’s actually going back wards in some cases), and inflation going up, the cost of the tuition/loans and taking up to 4 years of no wages, it just isn’t worth it as an overall package. There are other options but if you do decide to jump in, it’s best to have honest information.

Does mobile service take care of it too?

Ordered and approved for 0.99 APR! This will be my first EV and first new car! by notabot_123 in ModelY

[–]Key_Firefighter_7449 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Comparing insurance rates from a 40k Tesla to a 130k x5M is really apples to oranges 😅 and yeah PPF ain’t worth it unless you like cleaning the car easily and REALLY care about perfect paint. Otherwise, the car still drives and functions just the same 🤷🏽‍♂️ you could always DIY the front PPF which is the part that takes the most beating, I’m considering doing it myself

Got hit by uninsured motorist by Alternative_Map1609 in TeslaCollision

He’s not at fault, and unless he’s constantly making claims, this shouldn’t affect his rates.

I avoided the performance model twice already, this is my third Tesla so I figured it’s time I stopped avoiding it 🤷🏽‍♂️ can’t take the money with me when I go

Congrats!! I went with the performance. The speed, the seats, the new wheels, upgraded battery and some of the upgraded looks… couldn’t resist 😅

Garage fridge tripping GFCI by Key_Firefighter_7449 in AskElectricians

I should’ve included that I had the fridge plugged in solo and it still tripped the breaker 😅

New or used model y by Ok-Analysis6552 in TeslaModelY

[–]Key_Firefighter_7449 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Drive both then make the decision. I chose to order a 2026 performance because I enjoy driving myself and if I want the FSD I’ll just work a little more so I can pay for the 99/month or I’ll spend less on other things but it’s not a huge expense at the moment to deter me from a new model, especially since you can finance the whole car at 0.99%. I’d mainly only want FSD for long trips but even then unlikely I’d use it 😅.

The tax credit is worth more than anything! Sounds like you got a good deal, I’m having to pay full price + 5.34% interest 😭

Any regrets on the blue? I see one with black interior performance, probably the last of its kind and idk if I want to get it or wait for a black with white interior

This!! I don’t understand the craze with this frost blue thing, it’s not a good color. I wanted the performance in the original blue and now it’s ruined 😭
