Thanks, Mom for joining me on camera! Always great to include you in what we are doing. Who else thinks we should have my mom on the channels more??

Your Mom is awsome. And she is right, the black caps look better.

Kyle, it's refreshing to see perspectives from actual owners/drivers rather than KZfaqrs. Keep them coming!

The black wheel cap kit looks fine -- the trim is all black so it ties the wheels into that.

You are Sooooooooo LUCKY Kyle , Your Mom is very supportive of You and SHE’S ABSOLUTELY AMAZINGLY AWESOME ❤️🥰❤️

She bought and installed the correct center-cap and lug cover set. There is no chrome on the Y, the black color matches all of the trim on the car.

You have an awesome Mom, Kyle! She’s a little younger than I am, so I can appreciate her perspectives. I doubt you can be too nice to her on Mother’s Day!

More Kyle's Mom videos please. I have my parents interested in an EV after riding in my Model 3, and videos like these help break the idea that they're "too old" to get something innovative.

I am with your mom. Main things I think Tesla could do to improve the Model Y is take some easy cues from other autos. 1) Light up symbols on the mirrors when there is a car in your blind spot. 2) The rear view visibility sucks, make the rear view mirror togglable between a screen that shows the view behind you and an actual mirror. 3) All Tesla's should come with Out of Spec bumper stickers.

Love how mom embarrasses Kyle 😂 You liked noisy cars now you don't like them 😂

This is probably the best car review I watched in a long time. Great questions and answers that touched basically everything we need to know about this vehicle I am interested in buying.

Thank you, Kyle. People thinking you are a Tesla hater, that's exactly why I subscribed to your channel. There are only a few EV channels that I follow because most of them are only talking or even worshiping Tesla and totally ignoring the issues they have. You are a true car enthusiast and a real EV owner. Only the real owners will "earn" the "XX hater" title. I got that for commenting the cons on almost every car, phone, computer, motorcycle, firearm, or other "men toys" I own. People just straight out thinking I'm a hater of what I owned. But why would I buy them if I'm a hater? There are many issues and design flaws that only real users would discover over time. As much as I like your enthusiasm, I love your optimistic attitude even more. You seems always being patient even the car refused charging late at night🤣. If I have that many issues with Tesla's quality, Mach-E's charging, I'd be exploded, LOL 😆

This was an incredible video. The back and forth between you both was very refreshing. I hope to see more videos like this in the future. Keep up the great work!

Your mother is a very nice lady. Great video.

Love your mom and your relationship!!! You can tell she really loves you! Loved this video!

Really enjoy watching videos your dad does, and seeing your mom now, great stuff! Love how she loves her Y.

Def a great video partner. Builds up the older generations' ability to withstand change (ICE to EV.) Congrats.

An electric vehicle seems the right choice for a conductor :-).

Two Things Kyle. One, your Mom is charming. Two, I really agree with her points on the car as a Model 3 owner. It's an awesome ride and I agree with her point concerning the blind spot situation. She's right about the aerocaps too! After you "drift" your test rides you need to get her opinion!

Tesla does need blind-spot monitoring in the side mirrors. That would make it even more aweasome.

Kyle your impressions are spot on. The steering is too quick. It would be more relaxing to drive with a slower ratio. The ride is sports car firm. I think the non performance models should ride more smoothly and be quieter.

I loooove these kinds of videos. Real people with real opinions about their cars. Excellent!

It is so interesting to hear your Mom's back story and her love of music. Excellent video.

This is one of my favorite review videos you've done. This was such a fun, genuine conversation. Loved the whole thing!!

I was just coming to say your mom is AWEsome and realized all the other comments say it already. So here's another!! ❤️

Your mom’s review is spot on. Agree 100% on missing blind spot monitoring. For pet owners, dog mode is awesome. We use it weekly since our dog loves to go everywhere with us including grocery runs where he’s not allowed. In general, I prefer my wife’s 2021 model y over my 2019 model 3 except for long highway drives since I have fsd on the 3 but not the Y.

Like to see her on a road trip with charging stops and auto pilot. She is very engaging on camera and really comes across well with her perspective!

Love this interview. Your Mom is great!!. I agree with the comments regarding supercharging stations. Great network. Love my Model X.

great video with you and your mother, I loved her honesty!

Good job Mom! I think people underestimate how the older generations adopts EVs quicker and in greater numbers because they have the financial means.

I really enjoyed this video! I just ordered my Tesla Model Y which will come in October. I live in Connecticut, in Fairfield County and hoping to see Mom driving around and I’ll beep and wave at her.

Kyle and Mother, what a great video. Very nice seeing Mother and son ❤ driving and having a great chat about the model Y and others. I think she likes it. I bet the Y will be the road trip car right after they take the ID4 on a long trip. I too like the ID4, but when I have been on a trip with my friend in a Bolt EV, the Electrify America charging stations were broken and way too hard for a new EV owner. Being charged different rates if you had an account or not. He thought they worked like a Tesla Supercharger, plug in and go eat - using the phone app to know it was still charging and when to be back.

I like theses videos you've been shooting! I think the Model Y looks much better without the aero wheel covers. I like the black wheel and lug caps. I made the same changes on my Model Y. I thought concerns about the aero covers were silly until I took some photos of my car. Yikes! Your mom is great!

This conversation is so wholesome.

great video....loved how your mom spec out her Tesla, the wheel caps match the door handles. I love the interaction between you and your mom....I can see where your manners come from:-) Amazing job.....and I would love to see your mom in more videos!!

Oh Kyle, you spoiled it now by revealing that the disagreements with Tom are just fabricated :)

Good to see your mom Kyle. Great review of the Model Y.

Your mom is a gem, you’re lucky to be her son, and I am 100% percent in agreement with her review of the Tesla Model Y. Cheers!🥂

I love your videos we are from the UK , you are very inspirational and professional in your reviews keep up the good work. Stay blessed

Re: Steering ratio -- my understand it is speed sensitive (highway speeds vs slow speeds); AFAIK the comfort, standard, and sport mode is just a resistance (how much human input) but doesn't change the ratios.

The slight passive aggressiveness in Kyles voice is so funny.

Your mom looks very professional.

I love your videos. I think you are a honest cool guy. Nice to see you guys don't have any filter when it comes to sharing your family. Something rare this days. btw. If she is concern about blind spot monitoring , the upcoming Ionic5 has an very nice interesting choice that I'm sure your mom will love. thanks

Tell your mom thanks to her you earned another subscriber. I really enjoyed her feedback. Thank you.

Awesome Video!! Love your mom!! , Many blessings🙏🏽

“I drive what I drive when it shows up in the driveway”😂😂

"Welll I think I disagree" I'm convinced we have the same mom 😂 I like the black caps for the wheels!

I think the black wheel caps look fine. I have a Model 3 with the aero wheels. I had a metal polishing shop media blast the wheels and polish the aluminum to a mirror finish. I expected them to do the wheel caps too. They didn’t, but I wasn’t exactly disappointed by the contrast in the caps against the rims. Also, I may be wrong, but I think her car should have the heated steering wheel available. I didn’t notice the horizontal seams at the 10 and 2 o’clock positions. That seam indicates the older style wheel. She may be able to request a software update to activate the heated wheel.

I love to hear owner perspective! What a wonderful mom. Kyle please give us the white seat cleaning formula. If I had unlimted money, I'd buy a porsche taycan.

Very cool. I like the black lug nuts and center caps. I think they look great. But then again I like chrome as well. And I'm older than your mom. So of your folks generation plus a little. Bring her on more. She seems to be a cool Lady. Thank you.

I also have a 2021 Model Y long range. Took delivery December 2020. Didn’t get the new scroll wheels or heated steering wheel or the year of free supercharging. But I also have a vacation house in Naples. I will be on the lookout for your mom during my next trip there. LOL

At 82, I bought the NFC Ring Key with a Gold looking KOA wood finish as I don't need my Phone or Key Card to Get In & Drive. It is really Handy and never needs charging. It is a key card in a ring and in fact, there is a KZfaq video of guy disolving a Tesla Key Card in Acetone and making his own Key Ring.

I love your mom, she is wonderful!

Thanks Mum (Aussie spelling), your driving the Model Y that I would like ... when we can get it here in Oz!

Great video Kyle. Your mom is delightful.

Random observation, my B pillars were also a bit loose inside like hers, at the service center they tucked them in and reclipped them and they are super tight and flush now!

Your Mom rocks, and Daddy must have a good job!

You have such an amazing and beautiful relationship with your mom :) excellent video too!!

If someone is in your blind spot and you turn on your turn signal they will flash red on the screen and the car will beep, I think I would agree about having a blind spot light on each door if the car didn't beep when someone is there

You are 100% correct about the steering ratio … and the autopilot “on ramp “ issue.

Watching this as she's about to take delivery of yet another Model Y. Haha. Thanks Kyle!!

I am from CT. Grew up in Westport. Lived in Fairfield and Old Greenwich.

Kyle, Tesla started doing model years at the end of 2019. All Q4 / 19 production had the 2020 model year in their VIN. My M3P being one of them, delivered by december 2019.

With my latest software update, my car now uses the left lane marker to position the car rather than use the middle of the road at on and off ramps.

You have a wonderful Mom. Thanks for the Video. Interesting as well. Greetings from Germany where we drive an E Golf and an Enyaq iV 60.

Man what does your Dad do to afford all these nice cars? I'm struggling here to keep my 95 maxima going every other week.

Great video there Kyle and I guess that it’s pretty high praise on The Tesla From your mother because she used to drive even more expensive cars than the model Y and she loves it.

Instead of comedians in cars getting coffee, you could start a sons and moms in cars channel

Great video showing what an ordinary owner’s experience is. 👏

Great family video - thanks Kyle. Greetings from CLT.

Great review, thank you! I would love to see an update after 1-2 years of owning the model Y and a comparison with ID4, Ioniq 5, GV60 etc.

I love how evs you can go fast and people won't call the cops because it's so quite they don't get startled by it as easily.

Her comment about the blind spot actions is not a minor one and shouldn't be dismissed out of hand. All this technology, and they couldn't warn you if someone is in your blind spot and you put your turn signal on in that direction? Our Explorer has a light in the mirror whenever someone is in the blind spot, and I have wished for all 7 years we've had that vehicle that it would sound off when I put on my turn signal and someone is in that blind spot. All the information is there, it's just a matter of a software change to make it happen, but it never did and never will. With OTA updates, Tesla could at least sound a warning chime (if it doesn't already). On that note, one of my all-time favorite features on the Explorer is the cross-traffic alert. When you are pulling out of a parking spot, it will warn you with audible and visual alerts that someone is coming from one of the sides. This is such an important feature that I can't imagine an advanced car not having it, but I get the impression that there is no such warning system in Teslas, is that correct? If so, that's a glaring omission... please tell me it's not so!

Kyle my mom has blond hair too but she is crazy. You're lucky to have a normal mom.

Your mum is great...she should have her own channel. 🙂

"Tesla Haters" It isn't that most of us think you are a Tesla hater - it is when you said "Tesla SCs most of the time" when comparing to other charging networks. Luckily your dad corrected the statement :) BTW - your mom is AWESOME! Seems like she is real cool. Your dad as well.

now Dad has had three 3's - crazy!😜🤪😝

Kyle get her some Martian Wheels!

Great video, Kyle and Mom...

What a great pair! Fantastic mom and son. I love the interview. Why can't you let her test the Taycan Cross Turismo on a tour from Connecticut to Florida? She dream about the Porsche...

First. Your Mim is awesome!! I had the exact same experience today at a stoplight facing into the sun with the visor down. Keep doing what you are doing, love the content.

I have a 1/6/21 MY build and the same unique transition-year quirks are on mine (double pane windows, new stroll wheels but no heated wheel, old console). I have a M3P on order now and my wife will then drive the MY. My parents also have a MY ordered, so was cool to see your mom's perspective on the car as my mom will be the primary driver on their MY. Guess we sort of caught the Tesla family bug. We visited Marco last February and pretty sure we stayed at the same condo high rise your parents live - Good spot!

Great job mom. Now I wish I had ordered my Y with white seats.

Nice mom :-) I ordered a white Y in March 2019. Could come from Berlin in 2022.

So cool your mom is a ‘cellist! Before retiring from the Seattle Symphony, (Principal Clarinet) most of my colleagues’ favorite instrument was the ‘cello. Love your reviews, and my short list for cars is the Model Y and the Hyundai Ioniq 5.

Your Mom is an awesome lady

GREAT interview….your mother is enchanting!

Dam, my 2020 Y will be a year old on July 28th and I just turned 81xx miles. I pulled my Aero Caps and painted the Gemini wheels gloss black with red calipers. Even off the car averaged 270 wh/mi during our first long road trip from southern IL to southern MD over the Independence Day weekend and it was HOT and HUMID.

For blind spot, hyundai/kia have the best system so far. They automatically show you the blind spot camera on dash when blinker is on. It's just a software update away that Tesla just didn't do.

BTW a workaround for steering heating is to poitn the airflow towards the steering wheel when exiting the car in winters. Then do preheat operation. the airflow will heat the steering wheel.

Your mother is a really beautiful woman. I noticed her doing the same thing I do with the seatbelt. Even with it in the lower position the seatbelt cuts across my neck. I’m constantly trying to adjust it. Wish Tesla would give us one more lower setting for the seatbelt for us shorter drivers.

I think the black caps look great!!! Kyle you are wrong. Silver would look terrible. You have a great family. They seem to have supported you in a untraditional career. Never forget how blessed you are.

I Agree Kyle. I own. 2. ID-4. A Pro S w Gradient Package. Moonstone Gray. &. A. 1St Edition Pearl White. Love them both. Both of my ID-4. Are super Quiet. Very calm and quiet

The square steering wheel for tesla is perfect 👌😁

I do agree the steering wheel is very touchy.

Maybe my fav video yet.

Didn’t have the time to get beyond the first couple of minutes initially. This is very interesting viewing. The wheels look great.

As a musician, it would be interesting to see what she thinks about the sound system.

Mom is doin right removing the aero covers and grabbing the black center caps and lug nut covers. It’s a great look.

A good thing about the Model Y: There's always room for Cello.
