I believe Elon was trying to get a better price after he learned how much of the old Twitter was dominated by fake accounts and bots. Regardless, he followed through and despite cutting 80% of the Twitter staff - Twitter (X) works just fine today and even has more features. BTW - Elon ended...

I don't think it cost Tesla a bunch of money or time to push out a free 30 day demo to everyone. If anything, it has probably been a net positive with all of the new data and input they are getting from the fleet. I assume they will likely provide free demos again as new features get added or...

I really enjoyed using FSD on my weekly trip to our LA office yesterday. I have been doing the same route for the last 2+ years using autopilot (which is great) - but the lane changing with FSD took it to a whole new level IMO. I went 190 miles round trip driveway to parking lot without any...

I got one of those too. I convinced one of my surfing buddies to get a Model Y last year and he was aware of the free FSD trial but thought it was only for freeways. His trial expired a few weeks ago and I just got mine last weekend and blew him away driving surface streets to Costco and...

There is probably more than one Ross Gerber with the institutional shareholders.

Same here. I got the update Friday night and have been driving around all week running errands without a single safety disengagement. Only a couple disengagements due to navigation not taking my preferred routes. The more I drive it the more familiar and comfortable it gets. I also give it a...

Seems like all of my kids' friends in High School are HUGE Tesla fans and they are losing their minds over Cybertruck sightings. Some of my work colleagues in places like Montana, Idaho and Utah are giving Tesla a second look because of Cybertruck and they like Elon Musk. So I'm not too...

I got my update late Friday night and have been using it all weekend. Virtually every single drive has been free of interventions. Absolutely no safety interventions, just one bad navigation decision and I sometimes give it a little throttle where it is being too cautious at stop signs during...

I got mine from here. They look great! https://rimetrix.com/

Same here. Downloading now. Taking it out for a spin tonight.

My co-worker in Oregon was on 8.9 and got his update this morning and is loving it so far. I just checked my car and it says I am up to date as of right now and still stuck on 8.9. Hopefully by this weekend....

My co-worker in Oregon was stuck on 8.9 and just got the update and free trial this morning on his Model Y. He purchased a month of the old FSD last year and said this new version is light years better. He said he plans on subscribing after just an hour of driving around this morning.

That is pretty weak of Tesla. Especially since you paid for it. I'm stuck on 8.9 and don't mind having to wait longer - provided I still get a free trial. But sure wish they would communicate something.

I have loads of German relatives and have visited the country several times. Was shocked the last time I went to Frankfurt for a train connection, thought I stopped in Riyadh.

How clueless does one have to be? Based on the downvote I got, at least one TMC contributor seems more upset that I called out this garbage than upset at the garbage people out protesting Jews at a European death camp.
