Took delivery of the 2026 Model Y about 3 weeks ago and here are my thoughts.
I won't go into every detail of the new vehicle because there are reviews ad nauseam on the web. In general, the new Model Y is much more refined and has a more premium feel.

The seats, steering wheel...
Like another poster stated, I don't see Tesla selling a Tri-motor for 69.9K. That said, I don't see your other pricing that far off the mark for the other models and I think it is a slam dunk there will be price adjustments in the future.
Yeah. I felt like 69K was a great price, especially since Carvana was only offering me 58.5K. I know Carmax is a large company and they get most of things right, in terms of their buys, but I can't help but feel they were looking at Foundation Series pricing when they made me the offer. Stranger...
I'm really excited about the new Model Y, which I *should be getting tomorrow. I'll post my delivery day thoughts for those that are interested. I may indeed miss the CT in the future but if that happens - well - I'll simply buy another one. There is another post a few lines down that mentions a...
Previous to getting the CT I drove a M3P and the size was a bit of an adjustment but adjust I did. IMO the steer-by-wire makes the size *much less cumbersome.

Bahahahahahahahahaha. I completely get that. I currently have the 1 Cattle Dog but I have a feeling she's gonna have a brother or sister sooner than later.
Thanks! I plan on hanging around because if nothing else this forum has a great bunch of people. Yeah. I was Googling squircles for the new Model Y and there are tons of them out there so I'm on it! I'm gonna have to check out that Landcruiser!
I paid 80K for my non-foundation CT so I only took an 11K hit. Eh. It was worth it considering I drove it for almost 6 months. Carvana only offered me 58.5K. I would hang on to at that price. 69K seems super light for a CyberBeast!
Funny you should mention that. I’m pretty sure the two things I will miss the most are the steer-by-wire and the squircle. If there are aftermarket squircles; I’m on it.
Ha! Just read that Tesla plans to enable bidirectional charging on *all Tesla's on 2025. Elon being Elon that may go into 2026 but at least it is apparently coming!
