    Range inquiry [miles traveled vs. miles left]

    I've been keeping track of my range lately. I've been running the winter tire option. Had them replaced because they were worn past the winter compound. My range dropped at that point worse than it had been. I'll try to give you some helpful data though. Model Y LR. Highest charge I've...

    Cybertruck

    But the models you refer to are much more efficient than cybertruck will be. If they rate the other models around 240Wh/mi, cybertruck will probably be in the range of 400Wh/mi. So if you are charging at 26 mi/hr on a model Y (at 32 amps) turns into 15.6 mi/hr. If you come home at 6pm and...

    This aged well. 2021.36.5.3 downloading.

    Wiki MASTER THREAD: Actual FSD Beta downloads and experiences

    Dug through twitter and we're being rolled back to 10.2 according to Elon, but also 36.5.1 is non FSD software. Even people who were on the closed beta have been rolled back to production software. Anything is possible here, it could be that rolling back to a prior FSD version requires...

    Model Y heat failure soft recall?

    Makes sense to me. Your heat will only fail if you use it. 🤣

    Wiki MASTER THREAD: Actual FSD Beta downloads and experiences

    It for sure would have 100% aggressive turning. From the instant it starts turning, it's over that g force threshold because it's accelerating so hard. The braking would be bad as well.

    Wiki MASTER THREAD: Actual FSD Beta downloads and experiences

    I've used FSD now for a handful of trips to and from work, and the experience varies wildly. -Right hand turn at a red light. Semi coming from my left made a right turn onto the street I was leaving. FSD started to go, but I stopped it because I knew it couldn't have seen if there was a car...

    Wiki MASTER THREAD: Actual FSD Beta downloads and experiences

    for me, freeway AP is definitely worse. Radar AP was great, and now they moved to a half baked solution instead of allowing radar vehicles to keep radar until vision has matured. I get that FSD is vision only at this point, but I'm annoyed that it wasn't covered in advance that moving back to...

    Model Y heat failure soft recall?

    Got this pushed to my model Y last night. Couldn't find another thread talking about it from a quick search. Looks like they are doing a "soft recall" over the heating failures. I wonder if they are pushing this as they have parts or they figured out what was causing the failures, so they...

    thanks for this picture. I was looking at that exact wheel not an hour before you posted, and you've sold me on it. I'm not really a yoke believer yet, but I do want a cybertruck, so I'm gonna have to get used to it sooner or later.

    Wiki MASTER THREAD: Actual FSD Beta downloads and experiences

    It's not just about the torque though. With a round wheel, you can keep your hand in one spot and clamp down instantly when you need to disengage. yes you can tap the brake, but you would still need to reach for whichever random portion of the yoke you can grab in the event a yoke car does...

    Cyber truck will be the best selling vehicle ever

    Lolwut? Human eyes are definitely better than a good camera, and even further than that, the change in depth from looking at the road to a side view mirror is zero. Your eyes stay focused to infinity in either situation. But when you have to switch from looking at the road to looking at a...

    Wiki MASTER THREAD: Actual FSD Beta downloads and experiences

    I think it's a combo of being able to feel the car driving itself, and not being on routes that have been heavily optimized. Like when Sandy Monroe was taken for a drive on beta 9, he was super impressed with how it drove. Either he's the worst driver ever, or the route he was taken on was...

    Wiki MASTER THREAD: Actual FSD Beta downloads and experiences

    Such a system would be "drive by wire", and while it may eventually be implemented, I really don't think that people would be able to figure out a variable turning ratio. That would cause a lot of problems. And it would give tesla another place to tell people what they want. "oh, your car...

    Wiki MASTER THREAD: Actual FSD Beta downloads and experiences

    This was something I laughed about, wondering how many drivers would have been flagged for not using their turn signals rather than the smoothness score that was actually implemented.

    Wiki MASTER THREAD: Actual FSD Beta downloads and experiences

    I wonder if it matters how you drop out of FSD. If you drop out with the brake pedal, maybe it ignores the hard braking. But if you drop out with the stalk or the steering wheel, maybe it counts the hard braking? I got a hard braking ding and I'm really not even sure it was me that did the...

    Wiki MASTER THREAD: Actual FSD Beta downloads and experiences

    Yeah, I'm not even convinced that I was the one who did the hard braking but I still got dinged for it. Hopefully we don't get dropped out just by score dings like that.

    Safety Score

    I did get it. I'd guess FSD driving would score about a 75 on the safety score. Pretty jerky. No possibility of disabling auto high beams with FSD is enabled, and it kept flashing the cars in front of me on the highway. You can manually disable the high beam it seems but they will turn back...

    Safety Score

    I've been 100 since day 3 and have not received an email or an update, so either this is rolling out in waves or they moved the goalposts again and Elon didn't tweet about it.

    Safety Score

    I'm not making excuses for them about the data in cities, I'm just looking at it from one hypothetical perspective. With my assumption, CSA isn't necessarily that bad, but they don't want to start rolling this out more widely until they have more data in rural areas to better cover their bases.

    Safety Score

    You know, I have to wonder if this was done in this specific way on purpose. I have a score of 100, so I'm not complaining (just sweating). I wonder if they figured that people who got the highest scores would be most likely to not live/work in highly crowded cities, which they already have...

    OFFICIAL BUTTON WATCH

    This is a really bad way to do a rollout like this. Finally happened to me, something outside of my control despite everyone here saying it's always the driver's fault. Driving through my neighborhood, 25mph, 6am (dark). I see deer on the side of the road, so I slow down and slightly steer...

    OFFICIAL BUTTON WATCH

    I'm really hoping that isn't the case. I'm hoping they just more aggressively monitor how much attention you pay while FSD is active. To just start kicking everyone off the moment they take an on ramp too quickly or someone cuts in front of them too close on the highway... Or like someone...

    OFFICIAL BUTTON WATCH

    Fold 3 here, my fold 2 is sitting in a drawer now, lol. Notice how finally the app is actually capable of resizing? I wouldn't even get the pop up to restart the app, it just would pick a size and stay that way until the next reboot.

    High beams not working or I don't know how to work them

    Also, the auto high beam feature is known to be very hit or miss for everyone not in the FSD beta. It might work okay in some situations but work completely erratically in others.

    High beams not working or I don't know how to work them

    Pretty sure this is a bug. My car has enabled auto high beams at least twice since the last update by itself. Which led me to be super confused about why my brights weren't able to be normally toggled anymore. The first time it happened, a bunch of things had changed back to default...
