If you just took delivery of a Tesla in 2026, this is the stuff I want you to do immediately—because most new owners skip a few “boring” setup steps and then wonder why their range looks weird, their charging is annoying, or their car isn’t doing what they thought it would. In this video I walk through my day-one checklist: setting up the Tesla app properly, building driver profiles the right way, and fixing your charging settings right away so you’re not accidentally living at 100% or fighting with scheduled charging. I also cover the practical ownership things that keep the car feeling new: getting your home charging situation dialed in, protecting the interior before it starts looking worn, and setting up Sentry Mode in a way that’s actually useful without murdering your battery. Then I show you why connecting to Wi‑Fi matters (so updates can actually install), how to think about “range” without stressing yourself out, and how the car likes to be driven so your daily experience is smoother from day one.
