    Using FSD for 3 months - Is my experience typical?

    Thanks everyone. I appreciate the feedback and sharing. I think it's fair to come to the conclusion that cameras only are not sufficient hardware to enable safe(er) FSD. Most of the bad behaviors I encounter fall into a just a few categories. 1) Mr. No Depth Perception (remember that SNL skit?)...

    The competition has completely crushed Tesla FSD (AP).

    I just recently updated the sw on both the FSD enabled 3 and the non FSD Y. The AP on the Y will still aggressively brake on a highway if a car crosses an at grade intersection very far down the road but FSD does not even thought the car turning across my path was much closer.

    Using FSD for 3 months - Is my experience typical?

    with the light holiday traffic I tried to get door to restaurant about 8 miles away. This trip went pretty well, including the windy 2 lane road the route planner picked which isn’t my normal route. All was good until on the way home on a 4 lane road with shared center turn lane. I was...

    Using FSD for 3 months - Is my experience typical?

    In that case it's just regular AP, which works great. I use AP on the highway all the time an only have to put up with the 'merge swerve'. It would be nice to get lane change on blinker but not for what they charge for enhanced AP. The Ford system lets you overpower auto-steering without the...

    Using FSD for 3 months - Is my experience typical?

    Interesting. I didn't do an exhaustive search, but most of the threads I've read on FSD performance see a lot of traffic downplaying the faults / shortcomings as sensational exaggerations. I really expected better, especially since my first experience is so many years after Elon claiming that...

    The competition has completely crushed Tesla FSD (AP).

    I just used up the 3-month FSD trial on a new Tesla (2nd Tesla, I've been an AP user for a year) and I find the article pretty close to the truth. Some of it is sensationalized, but in general, I found the same FSD behaviors in my experience. As for "learning curve", I LOL'd at that. I think...

    Using FSD for 3 months - Is my experience typical?

    I own a '23 MYLR which I've had since Feb, no FSD. My wife just bought a '23 M3P that came with FSD for 3 months which just ended. I've run FSD in a combination of highway, suburban, and rural environments. Two things are very clear to me after three months. First, it's performance ranges...

    Can someone help me understand the speed limit settings under the Autopilot tab?

    It will do this on roads where AP is limited to 5mph over the limit. These are usually 2 lane roads. On 4-lane or divided highway, where it lets you go as fast as you want on AP, it won’t slow down. It’s just strange that it doesn’t do this and makes one wonder why the setting exists at all.

    Can someone help me understand the speed limit settings under the Autopilot tab?

    But there’s a separate option for the “set current speed”. The function description states that the purpose of the setting is to fix the target cruise speed at a fixed mph or percentage offset from the speed limit. If it doesn’t actually do that it’s kind of pointless. Additionally, it doesn’t...

    2023 Model Y - Retrieve Dashcam videos to view on PC

    Not in pa. I have had a lot of routine safety inspections done over the years (2 cars and a pickup every year) and not once was a road test part of the inspection.

    2023 Model Y - Retrieve Dashcam videos to view on PC

    I dropped my new MYLR off at a shop for safety inspection and within 20 minutes of leaving it looks like someone decided to take it for a 5 mile joyride. I didn’t realize it came with a USB drive so I’m looking forward to the video. TezLab shows the route and 43% efficiency which indicates a...

    Can someone help me understand the speed limit settings under the Autopilot tab?

    I’ve wondered what it would do approaching a sharp curve but I haven’t tested that yet. I’ve seen most of the scenarios you describe, but I’ve also experienced what I’d call flaky or unexpected behavior. The most specific example was on a 35 rural road (well marked) and the set speed jumped...

    iPhone 14 Pro Max in Model Y

    It’s even inconsistent between left and right. I can charge my 13 pro max on the right side but not the left. I have a new ‘23 MYLR and a thin plastic case on the phone.

    Can someone help me understand the speed limit settings under the Autopilot tab?

    I have a new MYLR and the cruise speed setting doesn’t seem to work correctly. It seems buggy. I have it set to a fixed 6mph over the speed limit bit when I engage cruise control it doesn’t honor that setting. Sometimes it does limit to the hard limit +5 on non highways (good) but not always...

    Discussion: Model 3 Price reductions - Jan / April / Oct 2023 and all other pricing discussions

    This change is targeting people like me. I honestly didn’t expect to be a Tesla owner. As of Friday I had a Mach E GT on order in since last year that was still 4+ months from possible delivery. I saw the news Friday morning and by lunchtime I placed an order for a MYLR and cancelled the Mach E...
