    Does a battery ever have a positive ROI with net metering

    Also, resale value. We’ve agreed on terms to sell our house (closing soon) and we had a $150k price benefit attributed towards the sale from the solar panels, Powerwalls and the other energy reduction things we did (upgraded many of our electronics/appliances to be more energy efficient, some...

    Full FSD Free Trial: Why I'd never buy it . . . ever.

    I’ve found that I need to keep in mind what FSD is supposed to do: get its passengers from point A to point B safely with no accidents. If I summon an Uber to take me somewhere and the driver doesn’t drive fast, maybe even cautiously, and the driver doesn’t take the route I would take, it...

    Auto Wipers

    We have an M3P and an MYP and before the 2024.x release, we couldn’t use auto wipers - just worthless. However, since updated to the 2024.x release (with 12.3.1 FSD), we’re now both happy with the auto wiper function. We’ve had a lot of rainy days the past couple of weeks and, so far, so good… 🤞🏼

    FSD beta v12.3 pulls the ultimate April Fools joke

    I posted a similar thread from my experience last night. FSD curbed both passenger side rims and it wasn’t a matter of not being vigilant. The car was in FSD, driving great, there’s a turn near our house and the car, previously, never had a problem making it around. This time, it was going...

    Curbed the holy EFF out our MYP Ubertine wheels using FSD 12.3.3!

    Be CAREFUL with 12.3.3! It lulls you into a sense of confidence and then completely shits the bed. My wife and I were coming home from dinner, using FSD (v12.3.3), and while taking a turn, it ran into a raised curb and trashed both of the passenger side wheels on our MYP. WTAF! I’m actually...

    This Latest Attempt to Force FSD Upon Everyone is Hurting the FSD Cause More Than Helping

    Ugh! Here I was praising v12 and guess what? My wife’s MYP was driving us home and curbed the holy crap out of two of our wheels! WTAF Tesla!!!

    This Latest Attempt to Force FSD Upon Everyone is Hurting the FSD Cause More Than Helping

    HA! Yes, MB has all of those things and it will drive you off of a highway bridge if the car in front of it does that too. Also, who drives 40 MPH on an highway? Looking at a few articles, it looks like MB Level 3 is certified in only parts of California and Nevada. Tesla’s FSD can drive...

    This Latest Attempt to Force FSD Upon Everyone is Hurting the FSD Cause More Than Helping

    Hi @bobbyjae, Mercedes’ level 3 is not only limited to 40 mph - on freeways only - but it can’t make fast, sweeping turns on the highway unless there’s a car in front of it so it can follow. Level 3? Sure… I’d argue Tesla Autopilot is already level 3 in capabilities (with the caveat of...

    This Latest Attempt to Force FSD Upon Everyone is Hurting the FSD Cause More Than Helping

    Thanks @Ostrichsak for your feedback. It seems sincere and well-thought out and I’m sorry you’re getting some backlash. My perspective has changed over time about FSD. My wife and I both have Teslas, an MYP and an M3P, and we both have FSD on the current version as of yesterday (12.3.3). For...

    Tesery Wheels

    @dvssolid, please update if/when you receive your wheels. I’m really tempted to get their Zero G-styled wheels…

    FSD Beta 12.3 GA

    I’ve had several drives (~10 trips) using FSD in the city - lots of construction, workers holding stop signs, people/pets, delivery vans, crazy lane shifts (from the construction), road humps. Most of the drives have been short (around 20 minutes) but a few have been in the 45 minute range and...

    FSD Beta 12.3 GA

    Hi @RobK, my M3P received 12.3 yesterday. I have a test drive loop I take that repeatedly made my cars disengage with multiple merges, corners, and whacky, hilly back roads that would crumple the V11s FSD. My wife and I took my M3P out on the test loop today and… absolutely perfect (although the...

    FSD Beta 12.3 GA

    @RobK, my wife’s MYP was updated last week but my M3P is still on 11.4.9 so you’re not the only one.

    The Cybertruck's fatal flaw that they don't want you to know:

    Yes, JPinaJeep is a troll. No doubt. That said, unlike Jeep, Tesla will take the feedback, validate it, and if needed improve the CT. Jeep has had - what? - ~60 years to get it right and they still make the Patriot.

    Uncamoflaged Model 3 Ludicrous spotted in Valencia, Spain

    Lovely car. Probably produced in GigaShanghai.
