So, is that to be understood that there's a separate servo which pulls
on cables independently attached to the calipers ? That would be similar
to the leaf, though there's a button to actuate the servo.

This is incorrect. Tesla has no parking Pawl. Anytime you "park" the car
both rear calipers are independently applied, as will both remain hard
locked. It won't roll into the lake.

No parking brake. It has a break paw in the gear box that engages when in

Thanks Folks for helping me make my decision. The Ford Escape PHEV seems
like it’s made of Unobtanium anyway (factory Covid shutdowns,layoffs).
Maybe there’s a reason Ford’s stock remains in the single digits and Tesla
$300+. I’ll pick up the Blue Tesla Y Saturday In Richmond, since I’m 65,
paid from my IRA so no payments $52k, 4 wheel drive 316 mile range. We’re
no longer fossil fools now with a Leaf, Bolt and a Tesla. I’m also building
a Tesla Coil that throws 5’ lightning bolts, 6.0 kit from Eastern voltage
research.com.
The Tesla Y looks like it has a steep learning curve compared to the Bolt.
Had to sign up last night for a Tesla account and download an app on my
iPhone to access the car. It looks like you’re Information tracked For
charging convenience (automatically charges credit card without using at
supercharger stations). The controls are not in the usual places and a lot
is done through the laptop size touchscreen. Probably why you don’t see
them as Hertz etc rentals. I’ll have to dig into the wire harness to set up
a trailer hitch from Etrailers.com To tow the boat. Say where’s the
parking brake to set when I launch the ski boat at the boat ramp? It would
be a bummer to submerge a $52k car.
One big reason for buying the Tesla Y is the self driving capability as we
get older and decrepit, so we don’t get kicked out of our house to an old
fart home like the nieghbors did when they couldn’t drive. Of course
you’ll still have to have the cognition to operate this fancy car...
Have a renewable energy day
