Old or new Model Y?

It’s actually a freaking amazing vehicle, tainted by politics. Anyone who says it sucks hasn’t driven one or is blinded by hate. I’m tired of middle fingers, I’ve had my fun with it and gotten the big projects I needed a truck for out of the way. Also it’s expensive and right now the resale and...

The've got about 6 months to be sure this doesn't happen again. If it's not an issue, I'm 100% sold on R2. If it is an issue, I'll go back to driving a reliable fun Model 3 Performance. I'm prepping for visit 3 to my service center (2.5 hours away) on my Cybertruck, and I don't want to deal with...

from that reddit post of the dead R2 on the side of the road: "The audio system is FANTASTIC, coming from a 2024 Model Y Premium. MILES ahead of the R1S I once rented."

Unfortunately Duncan SC isn’t a demo location for R2 yet

I’ll be coming from a Cybertruck which has one heck of a sound system especially after the latest update (wife has a new Y so I also know how good that is) That and FSD will be the hardest parts. I’ll also miss steer by wire specifically from Cybertruck. It’s so nice. Someday I hope it’s...

The order page may not have said so but the Tesla blog post (which they’ve since deleted) did. The website also said “The system is designed to be able to conduct short and long-distance trips with no action required by the person in the driver’s seat.” That line is specifically called out by...

In Kim Java’s R2 video she released today (23:36), she interviewed RJ and he said next gen hardware would “come to the launch R2 by the end of the year”

Coming in August but those won't be launch editions anymore? I wonder how many launch editions they plan on selling then?

Was just going to say Kyle showed this in Out of Spec Bits video

I know wraps aren't quite as popular on Rivian as on Tesla, especially Cybertruck (probably because Rivian has some cool colors), but is anyone planning to wrap their R2? I'm probably 6 months from buying mine, but I almost have a wrap design done already. Way different from the style I used on...

Coastal Cloud being two months away makes it harder to wait for updated autonomy hardware next year

I’m in a way glad wife and I both prefer coastal cloud interior because I don’t think I could hold off ordering until new autonomy hardware if CC was available at launch.

Can’t wait for Duncan SC to have them for demo drives

When I got my Model 3, I almost never used the frunk. Then I installed a power frunk kit and used the frunk every time I got takeout or went to the store for the next 3 years. Power frunk makes all the difference in how useful it is. Wish R2 (and Model 3/Y) at least offered as a paid upgrade.
