    Tesla wins first US Autopilot trial involving fatal crash

    I wonder how many people are killed by having the cruise control on and get lulled to distraction. Eliminate cruise control or pay attention to the warnings/disclaimers?

    Tesla recalls 2 million vehicles to limit use of Autopilot

    Bingo, it's nothing more than Tesla bashing and a lot probably comes from the "short-sellers". But the few always screw over the many in situations like this.

    Tesla recalls 2 million vehicles to limit use of Autopilot

    and is anyone surprised that people don't follow the rules/limitations of a feature. Again it's the "few" that screw over the "many"

    Never Happened Before: Both Screens Go Black At Stoplight!

    Ok, I have a 2018 MS with 70k miles and software version 2023.7.30. Pulled up to a stop light this morning going to work and I hears a low "zap" sound. Now it could've been through my Sirus XM app that I play through Bluetooth I really don't know. Anyway, both screens go black (17" screen and...

    Model S Sliding ArmRest

    Well my 2018 MS has "vegan" leather so it's vinyl! :D

    Model S Sliding ArmRest

    Unfortunately I am out of warranty and it is "wear - n - tear" from the previous owner. Actually, I was told when I purchased it from Tesla back in Dec 2021 that it was wear - n - tear and not covered by the warranty. To the upholstery shop I go! BTW, tldickerson, how much did it cost you...

    Model S Sliding ArmRest

    I know this is an old post but I really like how you can pop out the sliding armrest. Looking underneath the armrest in the pictures above I see the staples holding the vinyl in place. My problem is the drivers side sliding armrest has some worn marks on the "leather". I assume I can pop that...

    Tennessee Tesla Thread

    Not a good look at all. Disappointing. It's not like this is a brand new Tesla facility just built new and the first time in the area, it's just moving the existing work space into a new facility.

    Blind spot monitor on newest update?

    Well at least that is an answer and somehow in Tesla's universe it sort of makes sense. :cool:

    PPF & Ceramic costs and products

    That right there is a winner for me. Bug guts and bird crap are enemies of my Tesla MS especially since it’s MCPW. I think it’s a target.

    DIY Ceramic coating - don't waste money with a pro

    I know my limitations and a DIY ceramic coat or PPF installation are two of them.

    DIY Ceramic coating - don't waste money with a pro

    After reading this and many other threads on PPF vs Ceramic coating or PPF and ceramic coating I’ve come to conclusion of paralysis by analysis. 😮 I have a 2018 Model S with MCPW paint that I bought from Tesla in Nashville exactly 2 months ago. It has 50k miles on it and I am still going back...

    How’s the 3 holding up? Everything still as glossy as when you picked up your 3 from Lux? I bought a 2018 Model S in multi-coat pearl white from Tesla here in Nashville on 12/31/21. I just sent off requests for quotes from AA, Lux and Mad Tinter. I live in Gallatin so probably either of the...

    Blind spot monitor on newest update?

    I have a 2018 (8/18) Model S. Will there ever be a blind spot camera option for my car? How hard is it to write the software?

    Full Self-Driving Capability In Model S Sold By Tesla

    Well I still can't figure out why/how I have FM radio which obviously means I have the radio upgrade but no XM symbol. I don't see how you can have one without the other but I guess you can because I seem to. If it costs $500 to get XM I'll just listen to the app through my iPhone into the...

    Full Self-Driving Capability In Model S Sold By Tesla

    I found my FM radio plus TuneIn etc. but no XM. I have a glass roof (no sun roof) so am I outta luck? I can stream XM fine from my phone app through Bluetooth but I would my channels on the screen instead of having to scroll through the app. I also looked and I have a Full Self-Driving computer

    Full Self-Driving Capability In Model S Sold By Tesla

    It has MCU 2 since it has full self driving capability. Ironically the car, when I test drove it, had FM radio (didn’t check for XM) but it’s gone now. I stream my XM app through the infotainment and it’s not bad. I just wish I could control the app from the screen. I have spent a lot on the...

    Full Self-Driving Capability In Model S Sold By Tesla

    UPDATE: Well I was fortunate and drove to Memphis from Nashville on 12/23 to look over the car (2018 Model S CPO car) described above. It was in excellent shape and they had just marked it down on on Wednesday 12/22 to $61,800. I guess those year-end sales can work. ;) They did say that the...
