Try mixing up your routine, such as starting Wednesday morning at 80%.

I thought I read this somewhere, but can't find it now. Do you have a link to documentation?

I finally received FSDS ("Supervised", no longer "beta") and was able to try this out. I agree that the acceleration from a stop (or near stop) is harder than how I drive or would expect from FSDS. It's only for a short time at very beginning of acceleration, but I can feel my ab muscles kick...

That's not an FSD problem. That's a navigation system problem. When you first put in the destination, it sometimes offers alternative routes, but you only have a short time to select one of them. Otherwise, you can add way points, or use an intermediate destination. It would be nice if the nav...

In my 2020 MSLR+, in Controls > Autopilot there's a "Full Self-Driving (Supervised) Profile" setting. Have you tried setting that to "Chill" to see if it makes a difference?

Not sure if it changed, but I found this in latest manual: To Use Full Self-Driving (Beta) Once Full Self-Driving (Beta) is enabled, activate it the same way you would Autosteer (see Autosteer). Enter a destination. If you do not choose a destination, Model S chooses the most probable driving...

I think that's how Autosteer works, but OP said "with FSD on".

Search in the Manual for "Automatic Navigation". To enable, touch Controls > Navigation > Automatic Navigation .

Did you know that with Nav off, FSD will look at your Calendar (if integrated) to see if there is an upcoming appointment to decide where to go, otherwise, it will go Home? Does that help explain it?

That sounds correct to me. I wouldn't want it to be treated as a red light and stop. What would you expect it to do?

Obviously, Tesla vehicles currently don't have the hardware to sense curbs, but that's an interesting idea for a feature request. Seems like it could work for the front wheels, but not sure if steering could be safely adjusted enough to prevent rear wheels from hitting curb. Might need rear...

My car and driving habits are roughly similar to yours. I suggest that you leave your car plugged in whenever it's convenient, set charge limit to 60% for normal usage, and then charge it up to 90% before you go on a road trip. It helps main battery for car to be plugged in to reduce the amount...

I, personally, will be holding on to my 2020 MS as long as I can because it still has the stalk controls, so be sure to also consider that in your comparisons.

Yes, but to be clear, Tesla will have to assume some responsibility for all SAE levels L3 and above.

At the slow incremental pace that the software is being developed, how could Tesla FSD possibly skip L3 and achieve L4? We're the beta testers. We're the ones they release it to. Who else are they going to get to secretly test the software before releasing it to us? I can't see that happening.

The biggest difference for me is the stalk controls. 2020 and earlier still have them, but they were removed in 2021. No stalk controls is a show-stopper for me. I also prefer the vertical screen on 2020 and earlier because it is built into the dash.

That article is behind a paywall, so I couldn't read it. How did we get from "nearly 1,000 crashes" to "8 people" ?

You're writing this fictional novel. You tell us. LOL.

In my 2020 MS, I pull stalk control toward me to turn on TACC and push away to cancel. Flick/tap down is to reduce speed and up is to increase speed. Are the MS and M3 really different, or is this just a difference in terminology?

I notice that 057 Tech has recently been removed from the Vendor page. Maybe as a result of this thread?

V12 is just another release number. I'm more concerned about particular levels of functionality and not arbitrary release numbers.

Not here

I have never been contacted for anything except a recall. You need to be proactive.

You'll miss that all of the controls from the steering wheel stalk have been removed. This is a show stopper for me, so I would take a look at the Taycan.

I recently shipped a vehicle (not an EV) across the country from Florida to California using American Auto Shipping. Besides showing up to pickup car outside of the specified time range, everything went well. For a little more money, they had an option where you could choose if vehicle was to...

My MS was delivered in San Diego in Sept. 2020 with front license plate holder already installed. That is fine by me. No need to give anyone a free "pull me over" card.

Every time I take my Tesla in to the service center, they do a free maintenance check. So, I'd take it in for a tire rotation before the warranty expires.

There's "Pearl White Multi-Coat".

For longer trips, even when I know how to get there, I use the Nav because it will re-route around traffic, road construction, etc.

Weather forecasting always has to report the worst case scenario. Especially for hundred year events. No surprise. The worst weather for hurricanes and tropical storms traveling north is the northeast quadrant. I live near the coast in San Diego, and the storm went 30-40 miles east of us...

That's probably true if the goal is to match human capabilities. But I'd like the car to exceed human capabilities

Look elsewhere on your bill to see if that's true. If so, it will tell you how many days at the old rate and how many days at the new rate.

This may be a mid-cycle rate change.

Why waste time discussing level 4 before level 3 has been achieved?

The "End Trip" button ends navigation, not FSD.

I think you're referring to the Mission X, but who knows when that will reach production. https://www.porsche.com/usa/mission-x/

Post a comment in the app for your scheduled service entry and they will respond.

Maybe get something like these "flatstoppers" to keep tires from getting flat spots: https://evannex.com/products/flatstoppers-for-all-evs-set-of-four

I received FSD Beta v11.3.4 (2022.45.13) today for my 2020 MS LR+, but I haven't had time to try it out.

Couldn't we just...

AI creates information, but people post it on the internet. Same with FSD videos.

Yes, it's not easy to enforce. But GPT and FSD are both machine learning, so it seems hypocritical for Elon to try to make a distinction between the two.

I love my Tesla and I purchased FSD, so I'm not sure what to think about this: https://www.reuters.com/technology/musk-experts-urge-pause-training-ai-systems-that-can-outperform-gpt-4-2023-03-29/

The Owner's Manual link I posted was for 2012-2020 Models, which do not come stock with staggered wheels.

Where did this info come from? The Tesla Owner's Manual for North America recommends rotating tires every 6250 miles for 2020 Model S. Interesting that the recommendation was 6000 miles when I bought my MSLR+ in Sept. of 2020, so not sure what caused them to change it...

I have a Sept. 2020 Model S LR+ Raven. It just has "Dual Motors" on the back. Performance models have the same with an orange bar underneath it.

You need to look at your SDGE bill or account and figure out which plan you are signed up for. Then you can look up the rates for each hour of the day.

After discussing environmental concerns of making and using EVs, it would have been nice if they mentioned that making and using ICE vehicles is even worse over the long run. After that, it seemed like mostly well-balanced reporting to me.

Sometimes my driver side mirror doesn't unfold when unlocking car. Mirror always unfolds when I step on brake pedal.

My BMW and Land Rovers always reset seat heaters to off on the next drive. I can't remember any car, other than Tesla, that leaves seat heaters on.
