After lurking for a year…I pulled the trigger…and you guys were right!
My son was born last year and I wanted a bigger vehicle with more space. I was driving a 2020 Mustang GT (my dream car). It was paid off and I loved it — but driving the little one to daycare with it was tough. My wife has a 2023 Honda Civic which works well, but we just really wanted more space. I was so indecisive for a year. I didn’t want to let go of the GT, but with the 0.99% APR and Tesla approving a higher trade in amount than initially offered, I pulled the trigger.
And wow. This thing is freaking incredible. It drives so ridiculously smooth. FSD has really helped calm me down on crazy traffic days and I can just peacefully listen to my audiobook. My son loves the screens and gets excited to see Mickey Mouse Club House lol. It’s an incredible vehicle. And to all the people who told me to pull the trigger — thank you! I’m glad I did.
This is the best daily driver I’ve ever had. It is efficient, practical, and just fun to drive when I decide not to have FSD on. I do miss my Mustang GT — it was an amazing vehicle and it was a brilliant piece of engineering. I do plan on getting another Mustang in the future as nothing beats the sound of a V8. However, for my daily driving and taking my son to daycare, the Model Y is where it’s at — and the future Mustang will be my weekend fun car.
Thank you to this community for all the feedback and guiding me through all my crazy indecisiveness over the last year. 🙏
Proud to be in the Model Y family!
