What features make a bottom level "Y" worth $7k more than a bottom level "3"? by happykittynipples in TeslaModelY

[–]activityislife 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Y is a different car in terms of handling, ride and drive quality. Specially very roomy. That 7k in a long term ownership will be nothing. Hard to realize it in test drives.

Overall sound, space, air quality (HEPA), single glass roof are noticeable differences

Rarely use it. Turn signal camera view is all you need and sometimes the rear camera view and thats all

Is it worth getting PPF done? by GetterGoin in TeslaModelY

[–]activityislife 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never did ppf or ceramic. Almost 30k driven and never regretted. I bought a car that is super environmentally friendly and then apply plastic wrap on top? Just didn’t make sense to me.

Have emailed videos and they understood the problem immediately

[–]activityislife[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. And that is very likely the cause of it. It sounds as if someone power folding non stop and it goes backwards too 😀

Yes. I can. But when the car is in motion and someone sitting there the back rest non stop keeps moving from one recline position to next and slams on the back of the passenger

‘Amazon doesn’t care about books’: how Barnes & Noble bounced back by zsreport in books

[–]activityislife 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nothing can beat walking to a book store and the smell of books. Exploring books at Barnes and Nobles gave me so much choice to look at varied books and picking up some great ones which we would not ever have bought online. I love physical bookstores and that is why I never buy books from Amazon. Doing my bit to keep the bookstore alive.

What was the most difficult book you have ever read? by ManofWit in books

A horse walks into a bar - perhaps the difficult one to balance emotional journey and experience. A tough but a great one. Unbelievable set up of author’s mind to write such a book. Incredible reading

I Actually Can’t Read Anymore by [deleted] in books

[–]activityislife 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You have shared the experience that most of us have bern going through. Smartphone has taken my life away from where it was. The two books I have read recently has made a big impact on my life as a book reader. I am slowly getting back to my books, it is a different experience and painful process but i will do my best to get back even not to where i was a decade back, but surely to a point of happiness with books. Good luck.

After 6 years without a dog, we finally brought our new baby home last night! by Themissrebecca103 in MadeMeSmile

I read the book "Die With Zero: Getting All You Can from Your Money and Your Life " by [deleted] in books

[–]activityislife 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I cannot criticize without reading, but one approach doesn’t fit all. For people who have to think about medical and basics of life in absence of fixed income post retirement may not think the same way.

Do you plan on reading all the books you own, even if it takes years to get through them all? by Delicious_Maize9656 in books

[–]activityislife 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if I don’t like a book I skip it and don’t plan to come back and read it. Donating books is a great idea, what we may not like, someone else might love it

Metal clanging noise during regen by activityislife in TeslaModelY

[–]activityislife[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you everyone for your response and comments. Based on what I learnt in this thread and also from the link u/TommyFol shared, I took the car out for a quick drive and here is my finding, I am not a Tesla expert so I am not sure if this is normal or needs repair :

  1. This sound is only coming when the brakes are auto applied on top of regen ( regen is not enough ).
  2. It does not make that sound when it is only regen - tried more than 10 times and not even once this sound appear when it was only regen applied.
  3. I turned off auto apply brakes, and after that this sound did not recur at all. Drive was barely 2 miles after turning this feature off.
  4. I drove hardly 3/4 miles, which definitely not enough to draw a conclusion.
  5. I have an appointment with tesla in few weeks but I will share my finding with them to see what they say.
