    Pulled the trigger on Jaguar i-pace as second EV

    I have placed an order on MY a few months ago then saw a great deal on I-pace while waiting. I took a chance on the I pace as I too got a trade-in offer from Tesla that could make me some money after tax credit if I decided to trade the I pace for a MY. That did not happen for reasons that I...

    Pulled the trigger on Jaguar i-pace as second EV

    Currently, you can get an I-pace under 50K (after $7500 tax incentive) that has many features that are not available for MY such as: Air Suspension; HUD; Cooled and Heated seats. 18 Way Adjustable Leather Seats; Four-zone Climate Control; Ambient Interior Lighting, Apple Car Play and Android...

    How much quieter is Y than 3?

    She may want to check out the Jaguar I-pace. It is a great car with some issues. They still have some 2019 left and one can get it for like 30k off and still qualify for tax credit. We have a MB ML350 but want an EV. We placed a pre-order for Y but ended up getting an I-pace.

    Waymo brings in $2.25 billion from outside investors, Alphabet

    Again, I do not understand why Tesla (or Elon Musk) insists on Camera only. If we all agree that computer vision/software is the hardest part, then why not add some hardware to make it easier? Is it true that add a lidar system only costs $500 extra? Maybe camera only is enough but any...

    Waymo brings in $2.25 billion from outside investors, Alphabet

    I just watched a test drive video on "Tesla Autopilot Vs Openpilot" Self-Driving Test: Tesla Autopilot ($7,000) Vs Openpilot ($1,000) Seems a cheap aftermarket kit with open source software can do very good job as standard AP function on Tesla. I am sure that Tesla's software development is much...

    Waymo brings in $2.25 billion from outside investors, Alphabet

    Thanks for all the information. This is the future and I am very interested to learn. I am a newbie on this but the common sense tell me one needs two critical components to make the AD happen: Sensor system to get information (hardware) and then the AI (software) to tell car how to drive based...

    Why cannot Tesla learn and build on Waymo's technology? What is the fundamental difference?

    Accident for unable to brake efficiently: Tesla's or my fault? [early 2020]

    How to use regeneration braking safely? For example, should one start regeneration braking early than one would use regular break. Do you think using regeneration braking may increase the chance of accident as one may misuse it?

    Y - LR - AWD - 19" - FSD

    For LR AWD, seems only 20 inch ones got the email, not for ones with 19 inch wheels.

    Is worth to order FSD now?

    Thanks for all the comments. We should ask Tesla to make FSD as licence to owner, not to the car. In both the above cases, the cars were totaled in just a few month and seems not fair have to pay another $7,000 for the replacement. Maybe a 1K or 2K transfer fee.
