    87 Tesla Multi-Car Light Show

    Hey All, Just thought I’d share a cool event with you. My son and I were honored to be asked to help design a Tesla light show for a Make-A-Wish event. The Utah Tesla Owners Club was invited to help make the event extra special. 87 Teslas showed up!

    Light show security

    Not a silly question at all. I create light shows and also sell custom USB drives that people can put light shows on. I also have a background in cyber warefare (military). While the actual files that are used in the process are relatively simple (and easy to scan) it does bring up a very...

    2 20" Model Y Induction Wheels Only

    I'm selling two 20" Model Y Induction rims. They do have center caps, but no TPMS. Great shape, no curb rash. They do have a couple minor scratches where the tire guy, in his infinite wisdom, stacked the rims on top of each other. Great for a spare or if you rashed or bent one. These are...

    Thanks! Let me know if you want it on a coffee mug! :)

    Tesla UIs are like the the weather in Florida (or... er... Birmingham for OP?). Don't like it? Wait an hour and it will change.

    Anyone else having trouble using the turn signals?

    If you press only to the first detent, it will blink 3 times for lane changes and then turn off. I feel you though. I've had this happen to me, too.

    Is safety score attached to car or user account?

    Should be tied to the VIN, but regardless, you could just "opt out" and it resets your score.

    10.3.1 FSD visualizations disappearing

    If you disengaged by pressing the brake or pushing up 2 detents on the stalk, this is expected.

    10.3.1 FSD visualizations disappearing

    Mine does the same thing. I believe it's to show a clear difference between being on FSD versus TACC. When you "break out" of FSD by turning the wheel, it still keeps you in TACC. Same behavior should happen if you push up one detent on the stalk to cancel FSD, but stay in TACC. I'm on 36.5.3

    Tesla Vision's Autopilot speed limit reduction from 90 -> 80 MPH has been a pain roadtripping across the country.

    I know you can toggle off FSD, but I don't know if it would give you the "old AP" speed limit of 90 if you do. Might be worth a try for a mostly highway trip.

    Mysterious speaker in passenger footwell.

    It's not possible that it could be for both? Did this info come from Tesla? How do you explain the "eCall emergency call system requires service" above?

    Mysterious speaker in passenger footwell.

    This looks like a future "OnStar"-like system. Speaker would be dedicated to the operator incase your battery/main sound is dead after a collision? Operator: "Sir/Ma'am, first question: were you on FSD Beta when the collision happened?" Driver hanging upside down: "Ummm.. yeah?" Car: "Self...

    Safety Score

    I hit 100 miles mid day on day 4. Didn't get FSD until late (9pm) on the 5th. Just a data point.

    Safety Score

    I'll answer my own question, as I really didn't have anything to lose by trying it. I "opted out" of the FSD Beta program by hitting "the button" and selecting "opt out." Then I went for a few minute drive. Then I opted back in and went for a few more minutes of driving. It basically just...

    Safety Score

    Has anyone tried opting out (turning off "the button") and then back in? Does it reset your score? I made the mistake of trusting that AP wouldn't count against me on 200 miles of driving the first couple days and must have had following on too close. Got me a lot of miles at 85-88 score...
