  • After I shared the yoke installation in my Tesla Model 3, many are skeptical about how easy/difficult it is to use a yoke. My friend Lawrence is one of them. In this video I took him on a quick drive sharing my experience with him, and had him take the yoke trying it out himself.

    01:13 Joy's feedback on yoke

    Joy, great video as usual! I have a Model S as my daily driver and my wife has a Model Y that I drive from time to time, so I've been able to compare yoke vs round wheel directly. Once I learned the proper technique for the yoke, I found it to be a significant improvement -- in fact, it is a relief to go back to the yoke after driving with the round wheel. The yoke gives me one thing thing the round wheel cannot, which is a lever arm. Maneuvers like U-turns & 3-point turns are a delight with the superior arm-over-arm action of yoke, plus for sudden avoidance maneuvers the yoke is way better (e.g. avoiding car backing out of a driveway without looking). Yes, if one uses the yoke with the technique of a round wheel it will be frustrating, but isn't that a bit like playing tennis with a squash technique. Remember the comments naysayers made when Apple first introduced the iPhone?: "People need to feel the click of the button", "If I want an app, I'll just go to my computer", "Why would someone hold a sandwich up to their face to make a call?".

    Great video Joy! As a huge yoke fan myself, your guest did a great job describing the quick appreciation someone can have after driving with one.
    Really grows on you!
    We have a trip coming up with a rental Tesla (non-yoke) and I’m already thinking about how I wish it had a yoke. 😆

    • @TeslaJoy
      @TeslaJoy  11 місяців тому +2

      Haha! Thanks Kim! I was so surprised I would really love the yoke over the round steering wheel.

    Great video, Joy! At 8:17 is what I love about my yoke the most. I try not to do hand-over-hand and convert my muscle memory to using one finger when turning and holding the turn with the other hand if needed depending on the way I am turning. I feel those grooves were made for thumbs!
    Edit: At 8:39, that is how I do my turns...with one finger. The groove just floats around my finger in the turn.

    Interesting. I have a 2018 Model 3, but I may demo drive an S or X with the yoke to feel the difference.
    You've made a convincing argument.

    I’ve had a yoke on my MYP for about a year. Much easier to drive. Love it.

  • @DanFrederiksen
    @DanFrederiksen 11 місяців тому +2

    I think it's a simple case of doing the first full 180 degrees with one hand, then you can hand over.
    And the neutral position is slightly more visually obvious. I think it can work. Especially with a display in the steering wheel face.

    • @LaJuanHughes
      @LaJuanHughes 11 місяців тому

      It will take a few days and you will get used to it. If you adjust it right. On the freeway it all in your wrist when moving the wheel.

    Can highly recommend you installing front & rear sway bars from Unplugged Performance…! I promise the ride & handling is so much better and is such a joy to drive…!!!

    • @TeslaJoy
      @TeslaJoy  8 місяців тому

    • @ianthong

      I’ve installed them in my M3 and there is no more body roll and significantly improved handling, vehicle feel so much more planted like a S taking off…!!! I’m not kidding you & you’ll be wondering why didn’t I get it earlier. 😛

    Insightful video, thanks for posting this. I wanted to ask, how is the white (nappa?) leather holding up? I'm wondering of stain, color transfer.

    I don’t think I will get the yoke for my 2021 Model X I will just keep the original if I had a horizontal screen instead of vertical I would consider changing it.

  • @brucec954
    @brucec954 11 місяців тому

    I can see the yolk but seems like getting rid of the stalks and having to find a little button for the Horn is a bad idea. Would like to see Joy do a video on that.

    • @TeslaJoy
      @TeslaJoy  11 місяців тому

      You can watch the video from a few months ago when I drove a Model X with a yoke.

    Just like with anything, it’s a matter of getting used to it. Looks good on the Joymobile and matches the seats! How are the seats holding up? Easy to clean? Please consider doing a six-month review etc. As usual you look so gorgeous ❤❤

      Yes and no. You can watch the installation video I did last month for details.

    how does it deal with heated steering wheel? Does that still work? Also is there any safety downside with the airbag now?

    • @TeslaJoy
      @TeslaJoy  9 місяців тому +1

      Yes there’s a connector to heated steering wheel which I had to cut off because mine doesn’t have that feature. No downside to airbag as it’s not touched.

    • @TeslaJoy

    Hi Joy, you gave away your age in this video. I would have guessed you were much younger. Clearly, you look after yourself.

    • @TeslaJoy

  • @YannR34
    @YannR34 11 місяців тому

    It looks good, but the + you made, like resting place for thumb and the better for not triggering the "not touching the wheel" thing has nothing to do with the Yoke but more of the design of the old wheel. My car has those places for the thumb to rest and it's round, some wheel have the detection of presence by capacitive touch and not resistance at turning and problem is solve too. Some wheel have a more square design. So it's more about Yoke or not but the plus you gave are not linked to the Yoke itself.

  • @Michael-AUS
    @Michael-AUS 11 місяців тому

    Call me old school but, half a wheel can never be practical to use as a full steeling wheel.

    • @TeslaJoy
      @TeslaJoy  11 місяців тому +1

      Like I said in video, you just have to get used to it to retrain yourself. Yoke is so much easier to use than round steering wheel.

  • @thepurplemaskknows9383
    @thepurplemaskknows9383 11 місяців тому

    Do skeptics stop to think that the makers of the safest car in the world just thoughtlessly sawed off half the steering wheel with no testing or thought? Does anybody believe that the company would purposely compromise safety?

    • @TeslaJoy
      @TeslaJoy  11 місяців тому

      Has nothing to do with Tesla but what people are used to like I said in the video.
