    Guide To A Perfect Safety Score for the FSD Beta Queue, or Tesla Insurance reasons. (Whether you like it or not)

    I am, but not in a state where safety score matters. I’m monitoring in case it moves to leverage it, at which point I’ll have a decision to make

    Guide To A Perfect Safety Score for the FSD Beta Queue, or Tesla Insurance reasons. (Whether you like it or not)

    Same here. Completely ridiculous. Why not include rain, high-traffic, city driving, New York at all times, etc...? What about parking on the street vs garage? or too close to the person next to you? I "get" what Tesla is trying to do, but I think exterior conditions is going too far

    Matrix Headlights Capabilities Enablement Timeline

    I enabled "fully functional" on my 2015 BMW M4 -- "anti-dazzle" as it was called -- since 2015 and it's been working super well since. It's a bit of a shame that, 8 years later, I'm back to standard on/off on my newer ultra-high-tech Tesla.

    Big price drop - LR down $10k, Plaid down $21k

    That hurts

    MX and MS prices slashed!

    Wow that's a HUGE price cut. Definitely stings...

    New changes to Model S

    I wonder if Tesla realized that the brakes they put on the Plaid originally were not good enough. And if we can use that fact to get ours upgraded... at no cost to us.

    Steering Wheel / Yoke option

    Looks like better brakes for the Plaid, too

    Guide To A Perfect Safety Score for the FSD Beta Queue, or Tesla Insurance reasons. (Whether you like it or not)

    Wow the late night driving has material impact. I wonder if/when folks will start complaining about that, especially those who have jobs that require late night / early morning driving The one thing I'm still surprised to see *not* show up here is speeding, and potentially ridiculous...

    Plaid 21” rear tire woes - factory defect?

    That's odd indeed for a street car. Good for the track, though.. but this isn't a track car

    Plaid 21” rear tire woes - factory defect?

    Wow thanks for (1) taking the time to work with Michelin, and (2) spelling out steps for us to take Please keep us posted here if/when they get back to you. Definitely curious to know whether it's a manufacturing defect with the tires, or something wrong with the cars. I'm at 1k miles and no...

    Plaid 21” rear tire woes - factory defect?

    Looks like that's the older version of the car, which happens to be heavier and on 19s -- agreed that they make it dependent on the tire size. I'll keep to 40-42, with 40 being recommended

    Plaid 21” rear tire woes - factory defect?

    FWIW I checked my tire pressures after 1,200 miles and found that they were all at 35. Door sticker said 40 so bumped them to that. Where does this group get the direction to pump up to 42 or 45?
