Sorry to jump in on this question with a question. I am curious why you do this. There is the free roll drive mode. Maybe you like hold(and regen or one pedal) most of the time but then sometimes you want roll mode to coast? Seems like if that’s it, maybe another drive mode that lets you switch...

I have had this(dry wipe) happen a few times. Then I notice that my dry windshield had water spots. So I just hit the windshield washer a few times. After the wipers cleared the residual fluid off, the issue stopped. This is not a theory or even a hypothesis. Just one observation I had which...

AM stands for “Aging Majestically” Somewhat dated article(2021) that explains AM and uses. It is refuting that AM is dead of course. Ed Markey does like to listen to Boston Red Sox games in his 1962 Chevy2 I bet 😅...

Yeah. More like the frequency bandwidth of the motor switching phases. AM radio has long been susceptible to motor controllers or SCR noise. I am not an expert but EMI noise can be shielded and extra filtering done. Extra hardware is a cost and more parts, more weight, etc. so this seems like a...

Still beta software. Or have we forgotten? Now I didn’t pay $10000 or $15000 so maybe my opinions here do not count for much. I was lucky enough to get offered the subscription. So for me, I am happy and feel that finally with v11.3.4, this leading edge AI based “nearly autonomous” driving...

Ha ha ha! When I read this, it makes me think the Elon movie will be coming out soon! After all, all the the investor media pundents seem to think Tesla’s success or failure hinges on one man and his tweets or dumb decisions or how much time he alone wastes on that mistake called twitter. Sorry...

The turn signals to me is particularly annoying and dangerous. Every have a driver pull out in front of you from a parking lot on the right when you going left on a bend in the road in the same direction? Wish there was a way to desensitize to over usage of turn signals. On another note, driver...

Anybody pay attention to how lavish praise was given to employees for this years success? Or how Tesla in there mission wants to be the best at manufacturing and driving out cost to max profit? I think these cost reductions are also about motivating Tesla to exactly as E is saying. Drive the...

It would be nice if Tesla would just, dare I say it, give enhanced autopilot, for FREE😆 Maybe tweets to the big guy are in order

Thanks for that Father Guido Sarducci clip! Had forgotten about that SNL bit. Anyway, seems like this issue is nothing to get steamed about.

Ah I think that’s a Merry Xmas everyone

Feeling unlucky at 95%. Of course I want that beta button be not wanting to drive like a complete grandma. Anyone know if Tesla is going to share the safety score data for the fleet with the general public? I actually applaud this whole idea as it motivates safer driving and I see my own...

I don’t disagree at with this. Unfortunately there are all kinds of numbskulls out there and it ain’t all about just their drivin. Don’t get me started! Recently bought a Subaru ascent. The eyesight tacc with stay in lane is pretty close to plain autopilot. Except it gives up a lot on secondary...

Just a quick update after I’ve had a few drives with this FSD puppy. First, very happy I didn’t decide to plunk down $5k. Now I will say that the 1000ft or show warning that the car is approaching a 🛑 or 🚦 is a good extra. It can be annoying in lots of ways; pick up on a 🛑 that is from a side...

Here’s the feature update screen… I may post my impressions here after I try it out.
