Saw a Model Y that looked just like yours ( blue with purple shimmer ) in the vicinity of Wesley Chapel today, looked sharp.
Looks like Tesla sold a bunch of Model X Plaid in my area.
They went from ~10 in inventory to 1 in the span of 2 days after the price cuts. As you noted, it’s a no-brainer upgrade if you’re choosing the 6-seat configuration anyway. That’s the one model that I wouldn’t count on end-of-quarter discounting, since they are unlikely to re-stock before that time.
Great video as always. 😊
Test drove a Model X Plaid, was not a fan of the yoke. Maybe you get used to it. As nice as it was I think the Model Y meets my needs just as well.
Me too. Thought about the Model X but those doors are just too problematic especially with the low ceiling parking garage at my condo. Even at $79,900 I couldn't quite justify it without say 3 years of free supercharging.
@@danfoley1429You know you can get a discounted model ordered directly from tesla with less than 4k down payment and a total no more than 20 grand with a ref code.
(…X also has tow hitch available. Can’t put a roof rack in it 😮)
When doing the referral thing, do make sure to check out existing inventory, as that's what I did and snagged the base Y for $3k off the new car price and still got one with 32 miles on it. New enough! Sad thing is, Tesla discontinued the base Y to use the batteries for the Cybertruck 😞 Now you're left with the $2750 price hike for the "LR" which only gives a paltry extra 51 miles of range... PFFFT...
One big point to consider when shopping Tesla vehicles. The Y and X have flush rear bumper and hatch’s. The 3 and S have protruding rear bumpers. So this means if you tap anything or get rear ended in a Y or X you will have to either repair the hatch or replace it. Whereas the 3 and S you have many more inches of protection from the bumper, so the likelihood of hatch/trunk lid damage is significantly lower.
I personally don’t view this at all as a consideration when selecting a vehicle
@@brandenflasch Just my $.02… but similar damage on a 3 and Y could result in a $500 repair on the 3 and $7000+ repair on the Y.
@JorJorBinks123 That’s what insurance is for
Hey Branden! Thanks for the helpful videos! Based on your recent Model Y videos I decided to pull the trigger (saved 10% off MSRP, $51,740 - $5,170 = $46,570, inventory in transit) on a new Model Y AWD White on White with 20" Induction Wheels instead of waiting for the new refreshed Model Y's next year sometime. Eventually will probably get a refreshed Model Y Performance White exterior with Black interior. For now, the AWD is good enough. I also used your referral link yesterday. Will pick up the new Tesla on Saturday as it is still in transit. Austin build, 4680, giga casting HW4. The price was just too good to pass up!
So glad to hear my videos were helpful! You’ll really like the Model Y.
@@brandenflasch 10% off MSRP on what I wanted was a surprise. Had been watching inventory for about a week and that is really a great deal. It is constantly changing.
@danfoley1429 it’s like trying to time the stock market 😅
(…and Y has available tow hitch)
I enjoy watching your videos to become informed about Tesla/supercharging since I’m looking to buy. I’ll use your referral when I do. Do you have any regrets going from ice vehicles to ev’s?
Update just ordered my model y performance in blue with your code got tired of being on the fence 😂
@@M224.7You know you can get a discounted model ordered directly from tesla with less than 4k down payment and a total no more than 20 grand with a ref code.
buying the inlaws a M3 RWD this month. 100% agree.
Any chance you don't have a referral code and can use mine :)
@@LearntodriveTesla you can use mine...
Brendan..the 2023 model 3 rwd lfp hit 5300 miles and lifetime energy consumption is 214wh/mile. About 30% of that is interstate 75-80. I did notice we had some almost 100F temps a few weeks back and took a roadtrip and consumption was 252wh/mile on that one (over 100 miles). I will be interested to see what happens when the cold comes--its going to go up for sure but not sure how much-we hit -20F here some years so true cold. Already got winter tires in the garage ready to go.
You see the 40 stall supercharger in Dillon SC? Just went online last week
Saw that it went live but haven’t been to it yet!
@@brandenflasch #slacking 😆
Hey Brandon, very good summary of the cars today, thanks. On the fog lights, doesn't the refreshed Model 3 have those fog lights integrated into the headlight assembly? Kyle Conner indicated they are a strip at the bottom of the assembly instead of being a separate unit. The refreshed 3 seems to be mostly about cost savings in the manufacturing line but includes some great new features and the exterior aerodynamic and style improvements.
Do you use a model 3?
My dog would drool all over that backseat screen.😮

Great Videos and Honest Reviews. I will be ordering a Model Y Performance pretty soon and will be using you as a Referral. I am trying to hold off because of the 7500 Tax Credit. I never have a Tax Liability and usually get a Refund. So I am thinking of ordering the Vehicle for Pick up at the first of the year in order to take the 7500 off the price directly. Any thoughts about the Model 2023 Model Y and the 2024 Model? Is it worth ordering a 2024 over getting a 2023 closeout and possibly saving some money? Thanks for any advice. I do value your opinion.
Please make sure you are not equating getting a tax refund with not having tax liability - if you’re getting a refund, there’s a good chance you’re simply paying in more than your tax liability via payroll withholding (Bearded Tesla Guy has good videos on this). 2023 vs 2024 is totally unknown at this point and Tesla doesn’t make changes based on model years in the traditional sense
thats not how taxes or tax credit works.

@@a.ctlyzer can you elaborate on that? Any link to these Super deals?
@@laloajuria4678 what do you mean? I was told if I don't owe taxes at the end of the year I don't qualify for the EV Tax Credit
42:32 The newly built Plaid's have improved brakes, no need to upgrade them.
I highly doubt they are actually adequate.
@@brandenflasch Adequate for what? For street driving they're great (even the older ones are). If you track like a monster, sure, upgrade them.
@@user-to2rf1rj5v or even spirited street driving on a canyon road
@@brandenflasch I do that in my current S. Brakes are not a problem. It's only for tracking that the *old* brakes were...but the new ones should not be even for that, unless it's extreme all day tracking.
@user-to2rf1rj5v have you tested them?
Very good video Branden. Are you going to have Kalie on to give her thoughts on your new Model Y?
Kalie and I are no longer together and have not been for many months
@@brandenflasch I am so sorry to hear about that, I was wondering why she has not been in any video's lately.
Your Tesla model is no longer offered. I guess it was Just a Flasch in the Pan
1:17 yeah man....educating people on the total cost of ownership by showing the kinds of savings they can get is tooootallly sleeeazy.
it is because its individualized. we drive
@@laloajuria4678 Of course it's individualized. But it's actually conservative (based on 10k miles per year, average driver does more). They're giving you an idea, not making promises. Each individual case is unique.
