do the 2024 Ys not come with a USB drive in the glove? my nov 2023 delivery did

[@usmcsaxoki]

Looking at Tesla's online shop, if you click on the 128 GB USB drive they sell, it says "NOTE: USB - 128 GB IS INCLUDED WITH ALL NEW VEHICLE DELIVERIES."

[@Logan_Simmons]

Yes, they do. Just picked up Tuesday and it has it.

[@devinbaeten13]

I got a 24 MYLR a few weeks ago and it came with the 128gb flash drive.

[@margaretcassidy3280]

[@beachcrow]

Hint for new drivers is to treat the accelerator pedal like a dimmer switch, not on/off. Feather up on the pedal for a smooth stop.

[@user-fn8op3py1s]

Unless you have FSD I recommend leaving the autopilot on double pull. When on the highway using your blinker indicator will disengage autopilot but leave cruise control on. That way you don’t have to worry about hard breaking once you disengage AP. If single pull AP is on the you have to disengage AP, keep speed with the accelerator, then reengage after you change lanes. Didn’t realize this the first time I had single pull enabled and was VERY surprised.

[@maxflight777]

Sir ⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️ Wow ! You make a bloody good point ! That acceleration/ deceleration was annoying me after I changed to AP single pull !!

[@BrUc3Lee1121]

Oh my god, thank you! I just bought one and took a trip and knew I was doing something wrong. I just couldn’t believe I had to disengage auto pilot completely to just switch lanes. Disengaging gives a slight jerk and on the highway where it wasn’t fun.

[@Louie_n_Poppy]

I realize this is not your car, Ben, but setting up user profiles would be the first thing a new owner has to do. Setting up a 2nd driver profile including phone settings and card setup is something nobody shows in these types of video. Perhaps that could be something you could cover in the future.

[@Gjeebs]

I’ll do it on my new 3

[@frogmandave1]

Extremely extremely helpful! The very first thing you showed about the garage door happened to me but since I have the Performance Model Y the spoiler buffed it for me. Thank you for sharing this! I do have full driving capability as well and I wanted to learn about Summon and Smart Summon since I do not see it as an option in my app? I thought that was odd.

4:00 and "delete me" will also sell our data after deleting from other places? What is "delete me" gaining from this?

OK @Gjeebs I have a challenge for you. Can you get an after market suspension to make an older model 3 match the ride of the new model 3. Possible? Maybe even make the Model Y ride like the new Model 3 since there is no refresh coming.

[@dyhppyx]

[@nberkel]

I feel like there should be a warning for the hatch lift height to set it. It should give the warning when opening the hatch until you clear it or confirm the setting...

[@donstefano2988]

@Gjeebs - Exactly 6.00 min into the video. There is a message that your Autopilot have been disabled 2 times due to "improper use" and that Autopilot will be totally disabled after 5 times. Question: after 5 times, will the Autopilot never ever be functional again?

Hey you or have you heard of issues updating software lately. My Y is like 3 versions behind and has been stuck on 100 percent downloaded and never installed. I did a soft reboot and it just downloads again and never allows me to install.

Make sure you have a good WiFi connection and hold down both the buttons on the steering wheel until the screen goes dark to “reset.”

[@crazzyhorse5038]

I live out in the country and drive on a lot of dirt roads. What happens when your Tesla cameras get covered in dust. My truck backup camera hardly ever has a clear view because it's covered in dust. I wouldn't want to have to clean multiple cameras multiple times a day for the car to work properly.

[@fermgonz6167]

Speed limit warning is set based on the offset so you can put it at the speed you want to get warned when you are going way above the speed limit.

[@Trust_but_Verify]

2:43 88% would still give you regen, it's only above 95% that you don't get regen. (or when battery is very cold which will display a symbol icon on the left side of screen)

[@bigceej]

I would recommend toggling "Apply Brakes When Regenerative Breaking is Limited" to ON. Especially for people new to EVs. It essentially makes the car always feel the same when letting off the accelerator. So the driver never feels a different level of deceleration, no matter if cold and regen is reduced or the battery level is high. This makes learning easier as the car always brakes consistently...I don't see a downside to this.

[@usmcsaxoki]

That vehicle is actually the exact trim, color and wheel I plan to buy. I like the stealth grey because (besides being the only free color option), it's a bit incognito but still looks really good. It would be between that and black but for some reason they charge $2,000 for black! What?! Somebody else already asked this but the 2024s come with a USB drive, correct?

[@usmcsaxoki]

Scratch that last question. "NOTE: USB - 128 GB IS INCLUDED WITH ALL NEW VEHICLE DELIVERIES."

[@notvaporlocked5479]

By feathering the accelerator pedal you control the amount of regen. Give yourself a little time to learn the new school technique and I’ll bet you will love it. One pedal driving.

[@jigs8437]

@@notvaporlocked5479 No doubt it drives amazing but just feel I have to press the pedal a bit too hard just to get it to a normal speed and then releasing it stops the car almost immediately

[@notvaporlocked5479]

@@jigs8437 you have only had your car for one day so it takes a little time to learn. We have had our Y for two years and can roll to a perfect steady stop exactly where we want to stop regardless of speed and never take our foot off the accelerator. Give yourself some time. A month from now I predict you will love it. BTW there is no setting on the car that you can change to reduce regen.

[@dvader3263]

Regen and braking can be adjusted easily. You can adjust the regenerative braking to where there is no strong braking when taking your foot off of the accelerator pedal. It will drive like any ICE vehicle Go to: 'Pedals and Steering' in the control menu. Then to: ' Stopping Mode' There are 3 settings from which to choose. 1. Creep- there is no regeneration. 2. Roll- there is minor regeneration. 3. Hold- there is maximum regeneration. 'Creep mode' will have no regeneration.

I’m on an extended demo drive of a 24 Model Y right now. AWD, LR. Within literally five miles of the drive - I can’t believe the difference in steering feel between this car and my current Model 3 (LR, RWD). The word that comes to mind is ponderous. It doesn’t feel like it wants to stay in a straight line and needs constant micro corrections from me. My wife asked why Inwas driving like that…And yes I tried all three steering modes. Was really looking forward to moving up to a Y but wow…what a surprising deal breaker. Have others experienced this? Am I doing something wrong?

[@peterpage7322]

Yes I used to have a model 3, then changed to a y and felt that the steering wandered very slightly. It seems to have settled now unless I have just got used to it which I doubt. The model 3 however is much more sure on the road a bit like a go cart.

Your explanation @2:52 is SOOOOOO BAD. You don't even understand how "apply breaks when regenerative breaking isn't available" works. LMFAO "I don't use that because it wears down the breaks." LOL You would have to manually USE the breaks anyway if this option was off. This option allows you to use 1 pedal driving when regen breaking isn't available, IE. Battery is 100% or when it is freezing outside.

[@TheGingerDan]
