    2022 Model S Base versus 2024 Model 3 LR

    I'd go with the S - so many more features. Here's one comparison guide that allows you to compare the S against the 3 (although it uses the 2024 S, there is not a lot of difference between that and 2022). https://teslatap.com/vehicle-comparison-selector/

    So few Teslas for sale on TMC?

    Perhaps one way to fix the spam/crap comments is to allow the seller to validate comments before they appear. The seller could delete spam/hate comments in their sale listing before they appear in public.

    I am frankly shocked by how stunningly beautiful the Cybertruck is

    So how many Tesla vehicles have you owned to form your extreme hate about Tesla? I suspect none. So to make all that imaginary money, short TSLA. Be aware many have lost billions doing this.

    I am frankly shocked by how stunningly beautiful the Cybertruck is

    I suspect some (most?) haters are paid bad actors. There is lots of money to be made from oil interests, stock shorters, competitors, Russia, and more.

    Solar Powered Tonneau Back Bed Cover

    I suspect the added option cost will be in the $5-10K range. In all-day direct sun, you might get an average of 2-3 miles of additional range per day. If 80% of the days offer sun, and 80% of the time you park outside all day, oriented towards the sun, that means each year you get 3 * 365 * .8...

    Anyone else having a hard time getting a refund?

    I could be wrong but I thought the credit card companies required refunds (for any company) to go back to the original credit card. It is interesting that those with expired cards still get the refund - which makes me suspect that is still the case. I wonder if the few owners with problems...

    Legacy S Camera Upgrade - (Lost Features) (FSD)

    Good to know! Thanks.

    Is the glass distortion still a problem for ‘24 model

    Ok, a few minunderstandings. If the Pryo fuse blows, the 16v battery is still connected and powers the doors and windows. So the low voltage electricity is not cut off, only the HV. All four doors have interior mechanical door releases, should all power be lost. You might want to consult the...

    Legacy S Camera Upgrade - (Lost Features) (FSD)

    My understanding is you need full FSD to get the free camera upgrade. I got the free camera upgrade in my 2016 S, but I had bought FSD too.

    I am frankly shocked by how stunningly beautiful the Cybertruck is

    It is amazing that a small group of haters spend so much time dissing the Cybertruck. It makes me wonder who is paying them!

    Tesla MCU Index - ARM Tegra, Intel Atom, AMD Ryzen

    Any thoughts as to the reasons for the two forks? I'm on the 2024.3.x fork (2022 - FSD, MCUZ, HW3). One guess is 2024.14.x is for HW4?

    Is the glass distortion still a problem for ‘24 model

    I've never seen the distortion myself on my cars, friends, or loaners and I think I'm fairly observant. Ok, one idea, could it be a side effect of owners using polarized glasses or glasses with special coatings? I do wear glasses, but not polarized. Polarized lenses seem to magnify slight...

    Legacy S Camera Upgrade - (Lost Features) (FSD)

    While it may have changed, FSD in the past has used far less camera resolution for the neural network - perhaps in the order of 1/8 what you see in the captured video, as higher resolution wasn't needed (and the hardware couldn't handle it). In the past, it also uses software controlled areas...

    Tesla MCU Index - ARM Tegra, Intel Atom, AMD Ryzen

    Many MCU2 cars (all?) don't have the cabin camera either. My guess is those without the cabin camera will always have to use the steering nag. Looks like FSD 12.6 will get rid of the nag, if you have the cabin camera.

    Tesla MCU Index - ARM Tegra, Intel Atom, AMD Ryzen

    No. At least not unless the owner pays for the MCU2 upgrade. It's not needed, but MCU2 does provide a better FSD presentation. Otherwise functionally, FSD works with MCU1.
