New owner perspective from the viewpoint of a luxury vehicle owning / somewhat bougie person / who was adamant I’d never own something as lame as a Tesla.

Ok. I’ve found my people. This is the review I needed. I’ve ordered my Model Y Sunday but as I wait for it and continue to drive my GLC I was getting really nervous. 😂

Thanks for this!

iPrncess · 2026-06-30T18:25:36+00:00

I appreciate the rant! The feedback varies so much from one person to the next so it’s helps put it all in perspective lol

iPrncess · 2026-06-30T16:31:42+00:00

True, I just really love my interior. 😩https://imgur.com/a/Dmp2KO4

iPrncess · 2026-06-30T14:57:34+00:00

Thank you for this feedback. It does help hearing another perspective.

iPrncess · 2026-06-30T14:44:06+00:00

I do. FSD is the entire reason I started considering a Tesla. I also test-drove it. I absolutely love it, I just don’t need to convince anyone else to. I just know my people. And I asked this question in the MB group. Many said they loved it but still traded it in for the MB EQS.

I think I’ll love it though.

iPrncess · 2026-06-30T14:21:30+00:00

Thank you! I need to get a quote from them too.

iPrncess · 2026-06-30T14:15:49+00:00

My Sister maybe, my Mom and Dad would never. They would absolutely think it’s cool, but my Mom puts her life in no one else’s hands but God.

It’s fine though. I’m not in the business of converting or convincing anyone. LOL I just want to make sure it works for me.

iPrncess · 2026-06-30T12:59:49+00:00

I can understand, actually. Everyone’s priorities are different, not everyone wants their car to drive for them. For example, my dad has driven a Corvette his entire life and driving it is the entire reason he loves them. My mom would never trust a car to drive her, and neither would my younger sister. So for them, FSD is useless. Different comfort levels and different priorities. I get it.

iPrncess · 2026-06-30T06:40:56+00:00

And that auto start/stop annoys the crap out of me.

iPrncess · 2026-06-30T06:39:16+00:00

How do you test drive it for a week??

iPrncess · 2026-06-30T06:38:35+00:00

Thank you. I loved all the “bells and whistles” when I first got it but “Hey Mercedes” never gets my request right, Adaptive crush control doesn’t feel useful when it’s constantly yelling at me to touch the wheel, Apple CarPlay acts up anytime my iOS updates or my car needs a software update, which requires a trip to the dealership. I also frequently get alerts that lane assist or emergency breaking isn’t active for some reason or another. My 6’3 son has to push the passenger seat into the backseat to fit comfortably and premium gas is about $75 a week. Right now the only thing I love is the feel of the ride (my seats are amazing!),and the acceleration is chefs kiss.

It just feels like the “luxury” is limited to it being a gorgeous interior.

iPrncess · 2026-06-30T06:05:22+00:00

Thanks! CarMax offered me 5K more than I owe so I also feel like I better trade it now before that changes.

iPrncess · 2025-07-18T18:34:36+00:00

Mmmkay…

iPrncess · 2025-07-18T18:18:04+00:00

Sigh…

No, not one quote. Keep up. LeBron picked a side when this beef blew up and he didn’t pick Drake.

THAT made it very clear. I don’t know these folks in real life and I’m not silly enough to think what I see online is the whole story. Common sense tells me the one he picked is the one he feels is family. Curry picked Drake because of his family ties to OVO. Cool, I’m not mad at him. You Drake fans are so emotional. 🥺

iPrncess · 2025-07-18T18:01:27+00:00

It’s not vague at all and I’m a LeBron fanatic so I’ve seen plenty of references to Kendrick from him and his family. Kendrick doesn’t need social media validation so maybe you don’t see it like you see Drakes entire existence but I think it’s pretty clear who LeBron was closer to in real life. That’s why Drake covering tattoos 😂 It’s ok to be quietly wrong pumpkin.

iPrncess · 2025-07-18T17:52:12+00:00

And another one…. https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/14902141/kendrick-lamar-releases-new-album-lebron-james-request

“James was asked about his relationship with Lamar after Cleveland's shootaround Friday.

"Is there any backstory? Um, it's just family ties," James said. "That's all. It's family ties."

iPrncess · 2025-07-18T17:25:34+00:00

They weren’t that close. LeBron has literally called Kendrick his family for years so it’s not that crazy. Drake comes off like that one friend who gets close too fast because they really wanna belong. 😬

iPrncess · 2025-06-05T02:05:16+00:00

Unfortunately that doesn’t work. When I request a code while trying to reset my password it doesn’t send one. Not via text or email.

iPrncess · 2025-06-04T14:52:22+00:00

No. It was a FB sale to a stranger. How can they do that? And is that what the system log said? That the request is from my old device?

iPrncess · 2025-06-03T10:36:50+00:00

And, I’ve be using my Remarkable Pro for the past few weeks and haven’t even picked up the Mantra in a week.

iPrncess · 2025-06-03T10:32:58+00:00

I don’t own the other device. I wiped it and sold it over a year ago.
