Description:
In this episode, I sit down with Steve Sheridan to talk about his upgrade from a 2020 Tesla Model Y Performance to the new 2026 Model Y Performance. Steve shares what motivated the change, including the significantly improved ride quality, quieter cabin, and refinements Tesla has made to the vehicle over the last several years. We discuss why the Model Y continues to be the right fit for his needs, from garage constraints to the features he values most, such as one-pedal driving, visibility, and Tesla's user interface.
Steve also walks us through the ordering and delivery process, including a few issues that popped up at delivery and how Tesla addressed them. We chat about his decision to go with the Quicksilver paint option, paint protection film, ceramic coating, and some of the cosmetic changes he made after taking delivery. Finally, Steve shares his thoughts on the latest version of Full Self-Driving, where it's improved, where it still falls short, and why he remains attentive behind the wheel. It's a fun conversation packed with real-world ownership insights for anyone considering the updated Model Y.
