    All US Cars capable of FSD will be enabled for one month trial this week

    So far, I’m liking FSD for what it is, reducing driver workload, but not eliminating it. You still need to babysit. If you engage the autopilot in an airplane, you need to pay more attention. A 747 400 pilot told me it’s more stress on landing because you have to check every move and take...

    All US Cars capable of FSD will be enabled for one month trial this week

    Made some changes in AP settings, I feel it’s much better after lowering to Chill. Acceleration from a stand still generates some g-loading, kinda fun, I never once did a “screaming” acceleration run prior to this. Feels a bit like a rollercoaster.

    All US Cars capable of FSD will be enabled for one month trial this week

    I activated this new feature today on my Model Y for the short drive home in congested traffic. First impressions, it’s about twice more aggressive than my normal driving. Maybe this is actually safer, I don’t know. I think it’s very good on the freeway, but less able on surface streets. I’ll...

    Safety score 99?

    yes CA. I thought score was used to some extent to determine premium, as long as it’s above a certain number. But after seeing my score jump from 96 to 99, and being within stated miles per year, my premium is the same. So there’s been no consequence of being a near perfect driver. Aside, I...

    Safety score 99?

    Yes, but the loan was from my bank, not Tesla. I think with the volume of transactions occurring at Tesla , it’s not reasonable to think they could react this fast to a single customer.…..it took a while for my bank to send me the title to my car. There is something else going on not related to...

    Safety score 99?

    No, but it shows up on the app as an upgrade, both full price and monthly options. It did occur to me if Tesla knows my car is paid off, I might consider FSD.

    Safety score 99?

    I've owned the car for 3 months, no problems at all. A few weeks ago, my Safety score was stuck at 96. I couldn’t figure out how to get it higher. Then I paid off my car loan, I never intended to keep it for long anyway. I drove the car a couple miles, then I noticed my safety score jumped to...

    Build quality issues are exaggerated!

    Took delivery of my MY last Saturday from Burbank, put 140 miles on it. The build quality is fantastic! Austin is killing it. If I had more money and a much larger garage, I’d buy another Tesla in a heartbeat, MS Plaid Trophy car.

    Scheduled pickup on Monday at Burbank!

    I took delivery today! I found the entire experience positive. The drive home was confidence inspiring. easy to drive, good visibility, enough power to keep up in traffic in Chill mode. But I felt safe and in control in stop and go traffic as well. Came home and the car barely fits in my garage...

    Scheduled pickup on Monday at Burbank!

    Thanks @zoomer0056! I loved the single pedal driving during the test drive. All wheel should help also, never thought I would actually need it here in So Cal!

    Scheduled pickup on Monday at Burbank!

    They said it could be as soon as this weekend. Heavy rain and thunderstorms from Hilary expected all weekend through Monday. Guess I’ll know if the leaking lift gate issue is resolved. Then the drive home on slick roads. What could possibly go wrong?

    Older Tesla owners

    In my early sixties, Model Y will be my first electric. My interest in EVs other than the green factor is the idea of instant torque. But I'm really buying because the tech keeps you aware of what is happening around you. I'm not getting the enhanced AP or FSD options. I don't drive enough to...
