This Tesla owner reminds us that you might want to wait a bit before you take delivery of your Tesla Model Y. This is not to say it's a bad car or an unworthy option. With any first-year model, there are always potential concerns and important considerations. The Model Y has a bit of an edge over other cars since it's built on a Model 3 platform and shares many parts, but there are still other reasons that may make rushing a bad idea.

There's always a whole lot of buzz about Tesla vehicles. This is especially true when a new vehicle like the Model 3, Model Y, or Cybertruck are revealed. Once these vehicles come to market, it seems there's a mad rush to take delivery. While it's great that people are super excited to buy an EV, it's important to relax, remain calm, do your homework, and take your time to make an informed decision.
