    Wiki MASTER THREAD: Actual FSD Beta downloads and experiences

    Yes, I have tried assertive. Have also tried playing around with following distance and such. Kind of assume FSD overrides all that in the interest of having consistent feedback-loop data for improvement? Regardless, I haven't been able to perceive any difference based on those settings, though...

    Wiki MASTER THREAD: Actual FSD Beta downloads and experiences

    As I've said before, no one is rooting for Tesla and for FSD's success more than me. Have now owned multiple Tesla's (not a flex, I am just a foolishly committed early adopter, always drooling for the latest Tesla tech - wish I was smart enough to have bought their stock rather than upgrading...

    Wiki MASTER THREAD: Actual FSD Beta downloads and experiences

    Yes. Here in Los Angeles, more often than not FSD Beta is unable to handle tight right turns, even at lighted/stop sign intersections. If the curb sticks out even a little, for example, immediately before initiating the turn the car jerks left, over-correcting for curb at last minute, starts to...

    Wiki MASTER THREAD: Actual FSD Beta downloads and experiences

    I am as big a Tesla fanboy as there is. Just got 10.3 this afternoon. I am so bummed to say that over the last couple of hours I have found that this iteration of autopilot is utterly worthless on West Los Angeles city streets, and requires constant, aggressive intervention. Really shockingly...

    I see so many model Y owners having issues. Would you buy again?

    Absolutely and my wife wants one when her Range Rover lease ends in a few months.

    Late 2017 Model S 100D, HW3/MCU2 $61,900

    Yes, it had FSD as indicated in ad. Yes, it sold at full asking price, which I believed was always fair (slightly above the mid-range of the KBB private party value) and became more than fair when FSD price increased during listing period. So, I did not negotiate with anyone, and did not feel it...

    Ride quality on 19’s vs 21 inch wheels

    I've had both - changed to 19's very reluctantly because I so prefer the look of the 21's - and the ride with the 19's is much softer and I am glad I did it. But it is definitely a matter of personal taste, since the ride with the 21's (and air suspension) is still pretty terrific, IMO. If cost...

    Late 2017 Model S 100D, HW3/MCU2 $61,900

    The free supercharging I have is from my original purchase of a Model S, VIN #701 or so (if I recall correctly) 10 years ago, transferred from that to next and then to this S. Or at least as I understand it. This S was purchased in August or September and built and delivered in October 2017...

    Late 2017 Model S 100D, HW3/MCU2 $61,900

    I've seen some comments here suggesting charging is not transferable to a new owner. I asked the sales person who helped me with ordering the new vehicle at the store - though with the desire to transfer it to the new car, of course, as was the case with my prior purchases. He said it "stays...

    Late 2017 Model S 100D, HW3/MCU2 $61,900

    Autotrader for some reason defaults to 210 and has no option to change. As text from me in ad notes, it charges over 300. I haven’t range charged in a long time so I don’t know upper limit but I have seen no noticeable degradation. It is a 100D. Not the Performance model.

    Late 2017 Model S 100D, HW3/MCU2 $61,900

    I am selling my October 2017 Model S to replace with an X due to family needs. This is my 3rd Model S and has been treated with all the care that one would expect from a crazy Tesla fanboy. MCU2/HW3 upgrade of 2.5 original hardware, told by Tesla the free supercharging "goes with the title"...

    Yellow screen? Force Tesla to Replace it!

    I don't think Tesla can plausibly deny this is a warranty issue, should this ever be tested in litigation or arbitration, as they have replaced many screens under warranty (mine included) prior to changing the policy. Seems to me the replaced screens are, under any reasonable interpretation, an...
