My wife's Model Y, dual motor is approaching a year old and something like 14K miles. She still loves the damned thing more than me. It's given flawless service so far even though Consumer Reports gave it a pretty poor rating in terms of maintainance (what maintainance?) & quality issues . They advertised 300+ miles on a charge but the 80% threshold only gave around 290, which has since shrunk to around 275 - for whatever reason, I don't know. The car is perfect for what we use it for, and it will be interesting when we get our true up on our solar panel net metering next May to see if charging it causes us to have to pay something. When it needs tires, I'll try to check for some that have the least rolling resistance and road noise.
