I do have an F150 Powerboost if I need a car for off-road use, and it has a lot more clearance, too : ))
Model Y has a harsher ride than other Tesla models, though, and I'm sure it'd benefit from a good set of quality shocks.

I had my air suspension Ram 1500 that could lift up to something like 11" of clearance. I didn't enjoy driving it, though, and it sucked gas.

In the SS1LE I could get up to 30mpg on the highway (70-72mph). I agree with fun on track. I had/have fun with both. I sold my 2SS1LE because I bought a new ZL1 1LE for 53k, then sold that for more than I paid after beating on it for a couple thousand track miles with no issues at all. If I wasn't so against welding a cage in a basically new car I'd still be tracking it instead of the FRS. IMO though, for the money, an SS 1LE with ZL1 brakes and solid rear subframe mounts is a combo that can't be beat for a combo DD/track car. And with the 2SS you get to use the ventilated/heated seats installed in all SS 1LEs lol

I do agree with that.... the voodoo sounds amazing and is lovely to drive. The chassis.. well it's subpar but whatever. Still a great car that I love to see being used "properly" though!
