I have a Model Y Long Range with 19” wheels which I enjoy driving. The downside is the rough ride on less than perfect roads. I ordered a Model S Long Range to replace it, but I’ve gotten used to the ride height on the Model Y. I don’t know which one I’ll prefer. Thank you for the timely video!

[@RayNLA]

The Model Y rides better on the 19’s. I prefer the Y over the S.

[@AP-qu8sl]

What did u end up with?

[@baldbikeboy]

I have a 2021 refreshed Model S LR (which I love) and I’m replacing it with a 2022 Model Y LR, trading off some luxury (22 speakers vs 14) for fun, ride height, and easier ingress and egress, which is important when you’re an octogenarian!

[@Zo_flow]

Great video! Side note, I see at 9:44 that you guys got the Mockingbird stroller. We got ours a few months ago and the wife and I love it! Now I feel even better about my choice after seeing it in your garage :)

[@RobertSchmitt]

Amazing how the price has fallen for the S. Brand new plaid in 2024 is now 88k Used not too much more than a Y.

[@wetzel82]

Can we talk about how I can get a 30k Kia K5 with cooled seats but a base 46k Model 3 let alone the 55k LR one doesn’t have them? All models should.

[@mikerzisu9508]

Elon charging a premium. Price of a tesla model Y has gone up nearly $20k in the last 2 years.

[@wetzel82]

@@mikerzisu9508 Tell me about it. I haven’t bought a model 3 yet. Wanted to get one since 2017. I wanna buy cash. But i’m wondering cause they used to be 44k for a long range and 37k for a SR+ but now the SR+ is 47k and the LR is 55k. So hard to say that it’s worth it.

[@mikerzisu9508]

@@wetzel82 Honestly, I don’t think so. Especially with all of the QC issues that they still haven’t fixed. Then you need to think about having a supercharger installed at your house… Corporate greed if you ask me.

[@wetzel82]

@@mikerzisu9508 Although they do need to step their overall quality up for the price they charge that’s not what i’m worried about too much since I’m buying the car for the tech, performance, And driving experience. Plus i’d be getting a Nema 14-50 Not a tesla wall charger. But I have been thinking about Just getting A Chevy bolt Ev instead. Although I’m waiting for faster DC charging. I don’t like VW ID4 or Hyundai Kona/ Kia Niro ev because of their lack of full one pedal driving. The Ioniq 5 and Ev6 are too high of a price that i’d rather have an LFP rwd model 3. I’m just gonna wait and see what happens with other EV’s and I’ll choose in about a year what i’m gonna put my money on.

[@BlakeCheck]

Sounds like the model 3 performance stealth edition might be the perfect car for you. If only you knew someone who had one. 🤔

[@modestino73]

I bought my Y Performance 2 years ago and was excited. Flash forward to now and while I still think the car is great, there are just SO MANY of them EVERYWHERE I go .. it's lost cache vs the S or X which are much less common. Given the S is now considerably cheaper .. it's compelling to just bite the bullet and step into the S and at least not see 100 of your car every time you go for a drive.

[@kacatley9258]

Agreed..that's the dilemma I'm facing. Love the ride height and presence of the Y and the seats and modern look but then an (older) S is so sleek and is is much more of a head turner especially in the bold colors. Hmm.. decisions.

[@sanchez911]

Model y is just an incredible car. If they tune the suspension a little bit it is just perfect! Most sold car 2023

[@6SecondSilence]

And the S is an infinitely better car.

[@sanchez911]

@@6SecondSilence doesn’t look as good

[@walkerb1734]

Can’t speak to the Y, but I own the S and LOVE it! Great vehicle and fun to drive

I was definitely wondering about the golf clubs so thanks for including it!

@@Gjeebs Thanks!!

[@phat_gunpla_etc]

what about the build quality of the s? since you are paying 100K + or its the same o tesla quality

[@Gjeebs]

Same old Tesla quality

[@phat_gunpla_etc]

@@Gjeebs but faster and more tech?

[@jimadams2113]

Don't the new Y's have an 83 kwh battery?

[@Gjeebs]

I have a 2020 so mine doesn’t but Tesla also doesn’t release the size of their batteries so idk

[@mikefroehner9846]

Waiting for My Model Y, LR. Like your videos.

Do you have to wait almost a year to get the Model s Paid after you win?

Whatever the wait is yes. Haha.

[@ihamptonii]

You can get them now for high 40s mid 50K.

[@CaptainThomasMilitaryTactics]

I still hate the fact that with a 100K+ car that Tesla is still using the chrome logos. Just black it out with the rest of the car. But I’m sure Tesla has a stock pile left and we will see in probably 2023 a another “refresh”

[@Gjeebs]

Agree or make it an option

[@robchiste3638]

The Y needs a bath, I can see how dirty it is. 🤨😉

[@mratkins2611]

The Y is cheaper and tends to self-accelerate, the S is more beautiful and more reliable.

[@Branman345]

I've been a fan for years and I do well with change, but you have became a total tesla fan boy. I enjoy your content but i miss the petrol vehicles. Dont take offense too it but i think both cars are trash quality. For the amount of money you pay for the vehicle I feel that you are getting an unfinished vehicle for what you are paying. Every other car company have this down, I feel for the prices you are talking about you could get a mercedes or Bmw or Audi and they have electric cars and you are gaureenteed a finished vehicle. Not to mention the service center experinces you will have with them much better than the Tesla. I think you did a great job and I enjoyed watching it but the more I watch the more I stay away from the brand. I don't think it is all worth the hype and drama getting into one of those cars.

[@Gjeebs]

I agree the build quality need to be better but the driving experience is amazing in them. That’s why I own one. Also I still do about half petrol videos

[@USNEM]

Charity stars....scamming since God knows when lol.

Save your time and just compare the cars on your website. He doesn’t even talk about how they drive.

Just allergies. All good now. Thanks for asking

[@danpaul4975]

I have a china made model 3 here, I won't buy a model s if they don't build them outside of America. The quality there SUCKS

[@dalet8777]

The front of the S looks cheap.

[@Gjeebs]

Driving the S made me realize how much of a bargain the Y and 3 are

[@sikco]

Model S refresh the worst fit and finish in its price range which is why I got rid of my Plaid.

[@truepersona6804]

The battery pack of an EV is so heavy that it's equal to the weight of six adults that's before the real passengers sit in. The US government will "surprisingly" announce later the repair cost of roads and bridges have tripled because of the impact the millions of EVs have had on the infrastructure not to mention ecological disaster that is involved in making and dumping the EV batteries. FUN FACT: If we take curb weight to be 25% extra for Telsa Model S compared to Toyota Camry thats 550 kilograms or 1200 lb which is the weight of SIX Americans on diet 🤣🤣🤣

[@beachcrow]

Yeah, but think of all the massive tank trucks full of gasoline that will no longer be impacting the roads to supply *150,000+ gas stations* with fuel.

[@truepersona6804]

@@beachcrow the EV batteries are ecological disaster, a mega pollution generator unaccounted for during manufacturing and waste afterwards.

[@kamelnawf8900]

These cars are extremely poorly put together, Tesla mass hires 150 plus people at a time because their turnover rate is so high, I personally worked at the Tesla factory, I’m not a bad person but have criminal history and not a single backround check was done pre employment and when I worked their I had 2 days of training and immediately put us on the assembly line from their, they will “teach you” as the cars go so you will have people that have never operated a car let alone build a car working on assembly, the treatment and quality of work at the factory is extremely poor and is a bout quantity with this company not quality, their has been many Tesla workers injured or experience unjust treatment, with a hostile work environment is the reason for a lot of these flaws, untill Tesla ramps up tesla production quality and give proper training and pay they’re cars will forever continue to decline and have issues, less then quality is passed thru all the time to meet quota for the day on the hopes you guys would accept the defects on delivery day, STOP ACCEPTING LEST THEN WHAT YOU PAY FOR AND THEY WILL STOP PAYING LESS TO HAVE THEM CONSTRUCTED after personally working at the factory I would never buy a Tesla
