Yeah, I’ll miss it, but….

They offered me WAY more for a trade in, I couldn’t resist. Also, I’ve been waiting for PCS and other fixes for so long that I’d been driving my wife’s 2026 Y AWD Premium more and more and have really enjoyed every moment of that car.

So I looked to see what was available and…

Well the Y Performance is next.

So yeah, I’ll have a few accessories coming off (tsportline light bar, and a few smaller accessories) but the overall experience was ok - the truck was amazing when it was at 100% but has been rather aggravating lately as it is DEFINITELY not anymore.

Congrats, Tesla really trying to keep the demand up by offering more for the CT and moving deliveries to 6-12 months. Imagine the CT would probably be going for $35-$45k used today if they actually sold 250k per year for four years.

What was the “too much” quote may I ask?

With the S and X gone, there is nothing I would trade my CT in towards. It's a damn shame but unlike so many I have no experienced crazy issues and love the CT experience. In a perfect world I would keep the CT and gotten another Plaid but that's gone.

I had a Model Y (2021) and I know its been improved but still not the quality I would want overall. I love that blue though, looks awesome! Congrats!

Perhaps. We have a pre order for the Scout, and my wife is really keen on that.

My wife traded her 21 in on the 26 and the quality is MILES beyond the 21. And imo, I say it’s nicer / better built than the truck.

OMG! Don't get me started on the 2021 MY! It was "horse and buggy" quality ride, I test drove a 2023 I think it was, the one that got "comfort suspension". Holy shit! Night and day difference so I get it, but premium comfort is the way I roll. As i've gotten older I deserve a comfortable cloud like riding experience. ha!

I'd like to get a Y too, waiting to see if they get this extended Y into production anytime soon. I want to get away from ICE vehicles completely..
I have both a 2026 Model Y and a 2025 Cybertruck. Both are so fun and enjoyable. Can't go wrong owning both!

Don't make me go check out a new MY. I refuse...ha!
If you do, premium or performance is the way to go. You won’t be disappointed
