Any Tesla that’s on 2024.8.x has not gotten the FSD trial yet. We have to wait until Tesla merges the FSD 12.x code into version later than 2024.8.

Don’t worry. You complete everything when you pick up the car. Hope you get a great build today

It’s never too early to schedule for service because the next available service appointment maybe 2 weeks out. And you can keep adding more issues to your service if you find more issues later.

I was shocked when I first saw the announcement. And then I realized what they meant was starting at below $80k and you can upgrade up to 440 miles. So, very likely the below $80k one won’t have 440 mile range. But if I’m wrong, then it’s a good thing for the customers.

From what I read, self open still works if you have keyfob (which doesn’t come with the car). Without keyfob, you must press the door handle and the door will slightly ajar. There is no close all door in the app (unless I missed it). Close all doors is only available in the center screen.

All we can do here is speculate. I bet most people who work for Tesla don’t know the answer either. The tax rebate may go down. But if the demand weakens because of that, Tesla may reduce the price again to boost demand. So, for those who can’t get your car in 2023, keep your hopes up

Login to your Tesla account using a web browser. The MVPA will be there. The app didn’t list my MVPA before I took delivery either. But the web version did

The reason why people will never get used to the horn situation is because it is not used often. Very likely you will only use it in an emergency situation and when you need it, your reflex kicks in and press the center of the wheel.

The stalks and horn at the center of your wheel. These are major problems for some. I adjusted well to no stalk. You can’t never get used to no horn at the center. Having said that, you can activate the horn by placing your palm on the right side of the yoke/wheel where the horn button is. But...

Tesla have removed rain sensor from any of their car for a long time. I’m fairly certain cybertruck won’t have it either. Even model X don’t have it

I could be wrong on this. But I believe if you have key fob, self presenting door still works with the current X. I don’t have key fobs so I can’t test it. But I read it somewhere that I works with key fob

One more stupid thing about the safety score. If you brake hard trying to stop when the light turns yellow, it counts as hard braking. I meant don’t you want me to stop for safety reason? Because of this, some people (not me of course 😉), accelerate to beat the red light instead of braking

You just have to slow down enough before turning to avoid aggressive turning. It’s hard to do when you are in a hurry. I agree that after 10 pm driving deduction is stupid. And it deducts like 20% from your score for that driving session. In bumper to bumper situation, I usually let the...

If you have version 2 of the Safety Score, it will penalize you for excessive speeding, which is above 85 mph. The factors that really kills your safety score are forward collision warning, driving after 10 pm and hard braking. Try to use autopilot as much as possible to avoid the collision...

I heard 2024 model will not have steering wheel as standard because Elon thinks FSD will be fully ready by the end of 2023 🤣🤣🤣 So, you either have to pay for FSD or pay extra for the steering wheel.
