I've been keeping track of my range lately. I've been running the winter tire option. Had them replaced because they were worn past the winter compound. My range dropped at that point worse than it had been. I'll try to give you some helpful data though. Model Y LR. Highest charge I've...

But the models you refer to are much more efficient than cybertruck will be. If they rate the other models around 240Wh/mi, cybertruck will probably be in the range of 400Wh/mi. So if you are charging at 26 mi/hr on a model Y (at 32 amps) turns into 15.6 mi/hr. If you come home at 6pm and...

This aged well. 2021.36.5.3 downloading.

Dug through twitter and we're being rolled back to 10.2 according to Elon, but also 36.5.1 is non FSD software. Even people who were on the closed beta have been rolled back to production software. Anything is possible here, it could be that rolling back to a prior FSD version requires...

Makes sense to me. Your heat will only fail if you use it. 🤣

It for sure would have 100% aggressive turning. From the instant it starts turning, it's over that g force threshold because it's accelerating so hard. The braking would be bad as well.

I've used FSD now for a handful of trips to and from work, and the experience varies wildly. -Right hand turn at a red light. Semi coming from my left made a right turn onto the street I was leaving. FSD started to go, but I stopped it because I knew it couldn't have seen if there was a car...

for me, freeway AP is definitely worse. Radar AP was great, and now they moved to a half baked solution instead of allowing radar vehicles to keep radar until vision has matured. I get that FSD is vision only at this point, but I'm annoyed that it wasn't covered in advance that moving back to...

Got this pushed to my model Y last night. Couldn't find another thread talking about it from a quick search. Looks like they are doing a "soft recall" over the heating failures. I wonder if they are pushing this as they have parts or they figured out what was causing the failures, so they...

thanks for this picture. I was looking at that exact wheel not an hour before you posted, and you've sold me on it. I'm not really a yoke believer yet, but I do want a cybertruck, so I'm gonna have to get used to it sooner or later.

It's not just about the torque though. With a round wheel, you can keep your hand in one spot and clamp down instantly when you need to disengage. yes you can tap the brake, but you would still need to reach for whichever random portion of the yoke you can grab in the event a yoke car does...

Lolwut? Human eyes are definitely better than a good camera, and even further than that, the change in depth from looking at the road to a side view mirror is zero. Your eyes stay focused to infinity in either situation. But when you have to switch from looking at the road to looking at a...

I think it's a combo of being able to feel the car driving itself, and not being on routes that have been heavily optimized. Like when Sandy Monroe was taken for a drive on beta 9, he was super impressed with how it drove. Either he's the worst driver ever, or the route he was taken on was...

Such a system would be "drive by wire", and while it may eventually be implemented, I really don't think that people would be able to figure out a variable turning ratio. That would cause a lot of problems. And it would give tesla another place to tell people what they want. "oh, your car...
