When I took the Model 3P for a test drive my wife told me I was making her sick and she felt like she was going to throw up. It was mainly because I wasn’t used to modulating the pedal that good. She was hesitant about buying an EV at the time because of it but now we are both used to it so it isn’t an issue, just takes a little time.
Now the only thing she yells at me for is if I hit the accelerator even halfway without giving her a heads up because her head hits the headrest so hard it gives her a headache and when I say she yells at me it’s not joking, she’s genuinely pissed.

My wife's a big wuss. The last time I hit 100 to pass a truck on a two lane highway she put her head down and was talking in only what I can describe as gibberish

back to model s plaid with a steering wheel. you know, the thread title.
saw an article about yokes wearing out super fast. so maybe the reason to get the wheel is because the yoke is garbage quality. or wait, maybe because of the way it REQUIRES people to use it, it causes premature wear.

I bet its the "synthetic leather" covering they use.

There has been some people that have yokes that have premature wear or accidentally scratch it with their nail or ring or something and some that just wear down. Pretty sad if you ask me. If it happens to me and it’s not covered under warranty I would buy an aftermarket yoke and hope it’s better quality. After seeing some pics on the forums I’m trying to be careful but I really shouldn’t have to.

Yes and no, some of it is user error where something just scratches it by accident and some just from bad/premature wear or poor manufacturing. Some have been able to get it replaced under warranty.

material wear... here's an article: https://www.thedrive.com/news/tesla-...re-30000-miles
i wouldn't be surprised if many plaid owners drive the car with a death grip on the yoke when using all that power.![Stick Out Tongue](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/tongue.gif)

The "vegan leather" seems to hold up pretty well on the seats...but a steering wheel is a whole different thing. if I got one I would get a high quality wood/leather wheel, something like this:
