    Tesla in crisis?

    Cause then the millions of Model 3s and Model Ys already on the road would be the "robotaxi". Otherwise, why would he would have to unveil something new and that doesn't exist in the market today? This is, ostensibly, why they don't allow lease buyouts on the M3/MY, cause they were going to...

    Tesla in crisis?

    Yeah, even after just two drives with FSD during this 30 day trial period, it's clear that it's still years away from being something that could even be considered by regulators or underwriters for unsupervised use (don't get me wrong, super impressive what they can do with cameras but not...

    Tesla in crisis?

    Couldn't agree more. In addition to all of this, having the FSD trial this month has shown how far away true self-driving really is. It's cool and all but nowhere near ready for me to trust it to take my kid to school or pick me up from the bar. Elon keeps talking about automation but we all...

    Stuck On 2024.2.7 After Not Having Wifi Few Weeks

    I got an update last week, it brought the 30 day FSD trial. Nice to have EAP back for next few weeks. I missed it from first Model S. The post above you was right. I think they are rolling out the FSD trial update to everyone and that left some of us without updates for a month or two.

    FSD 12 perspective from a previous skeptic

    Coming from someone who paid for FSD (like a chump) in 2017 and never got it on my first Model S, I'm impressed with the progress. That being said, I've had a fairly different experience over the past two days with the 30 day trial. TLDR is that it did really well on broad streets and multi...

    30 Day Trial of FSD on a 2017 Model S!!

    With today's update I got the 30 day trail of FSD on my HW3 upgraded 2017 Model S! Not gonna lie, it's a huge improvement over my previous experience with beta FSD in the fall of 2023 on my previous Model 3. It's way more assertive and confident. That all being said, it still had several of the...

    Stuck On 2024.2.7 After Not Having Wifi Few Weeks

    I moved a few weeks ago to a new house. During that time, my Model S had intermittent Wifi access. At one point during the move, it notified me that there was an update available. After a few days of the little yellow arrow icon being at the top of my screen, I happened to park close enough to...

    Cybertruck is a scam.

    Never gonna happen. He's even said so. After he was ousted at PayPal, he more or less vowed that it would never happen again. Purposefully setting his position up as CEO at Tesla very early on (after the actual founders were pushed out). The unfortunate reality is that Tesla is intrinsically...

    Cyber(nota)truck even more Not a truck than I first thought

    Yeah, but it's not just the range. It's that Tesla doesn't seem to be taking it seriously at all. Ok, I get it only could fit 123kwh of battery. Ok, I get it, the design had to be exactly this, or daddy Elon would be guilty of being what he doesn't like about other car makers. Then in lieu of...

    Cybertruck is a scam.

    nah... It's a crack from the heater. In the exact spot it happens everytiime with 2016-2019 Model S. There is no chip, don't worry tho, I doubt one poorly made windsheild will impact the stock price ;)

    Cybertruck is a scam.

    Yeah, I have a feeling "sell out all the builds for 2024" is EDF* speak for "we've almost hit the number of people we think that would be willing to pay extra for a 'Foundation Series' and not riot when we don't deliver on time" Best estimates put ~600 CT have been made so far. So like 10 - 15...

    Cybertruck is a scam.

    well now that you're really speculating here's the TMC chat about it: Defroster cracked windshield on ‘19 model S here's the reddit chat about it: And when under warranty, Tesla was covering this type of crack in older Model S. Since they didn't bother to taper the black enamel to fully...

    Cybertruck is a scam.

    Damnnn.... dem monthly payments are getting serious then. Cyberbeast with 5yr loan and 10% down is over $2,000/month right now. That was a mortgage payment not too long ago... But yeah, I could see our dear leader raising the price of the CT (all models for that matter) to meet potentially...

    Cybertruck is a scam.

    I leased a 2020 Model 3 through my business for a couple years. It was alright, not great and nothing like either of my Model S. I know your experience with the Model S hasn't been great but both of mine have (older models) been the two best cars I've ever owned. And this was coming from an Audi...
