    I know I can’t go five minutes on the road without seeing a Model Y, but I had no clue they made up 95% of Tesla’s production.

      It makes sense. There’s really no reason to get any other version, especially given the price of the X

        Except, yknow, the vast majority of people don’t need an SUV, and they’re objectively pedestrian and child murder machines

          I mean, the Y is far from an average SUV size. It’s barely bigger than the 3. It doesn’t have the murder tendencies that, say, a Suburban has.

        Model 3s are excellent cars, more than enough for many people, cheaper, more range. I see a lot of these

      I mostly see Model 3s but do see some Model Ys.

      I think I’ve maybe seen two Teslas that weren’t Model Ys in the wild. Granted, I don’t live in a big city, but still, there are plenty of Model Ys I see driving around.

        I live in the LA area and saw 3 of those stupid cyber trucks last week. I see a lot of 3s, the occasional X and S too. But the 3 and Y are everywhere, almost all are in white only. They’re almost as ubiquitous as the Civic and Carolla were in the 90s and early 00s.

          White seems to be very popular. My Prius was white, but I didn’t get to choose the color. It was the only one available in my price range on the lot and my previous car totally died on me when an asshole mechanic fucked it up, so I didn’t have a choice.

          I hate it. It looks dirty all the time.

            Ugh, that sucks. Who knows how far your Prius could have gone otherwise.

            I was looking at a 3 when it was first announced, but I’m driving my Prius till it dies. Sucks Toyota supported the election deniers.

              No, sorry about the misunderstanding. The car before the Prius died. I replaced it with the Prius. It’s doing fine.

            White is currently the color that you don’t pay extra for. When I bought mine back in 2019, black was the “free” color.
