    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    Michael Dell's "super impressive" X posting after using V12 got a lot of attention.

    No way. Not until another Boston professional team wins a championship so we can have a duck boat parade. Celtics are looking good :)

    Edit- Just saw a car from Massachusetts get V12. Yahoo!! Getting Closer So now the question to Tesla is why wasn't I first. Probably somebody with the last name of Kennedy got it!! I have 2023.44.30.8 with HW4 but I guess living in the Northeast pretty much disqualifies me :) 5 cars so far...

    Don't buy it. Well over a year since the last state was added. There is more to the delay then just state regulations. The question is what?

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    So if the car insurance companies are gouging the public, which they are, one has to wonder why Tesla hasn't added a state to their insurance program for a long time or made money underwriting? Anybody care to speculate?

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    Tesla doesn't need FSD solved to Level 5 to bump the take rate and stock value. Level 3 with a graceful FSD to person in the driver seat handoff would be a significant improvement. Owners could then do pretty much anything from the driver seat like watch video, read, text etc. Pretty much...

    I should have been clearer. I was mostly referring to Stop sign intersections. And I rarely do jackrabbit starts unless it's needed to avoid cars coming up to me at obstructed view intersections which I have a lot of. Staying too far back is just not as safe. For traffic lights just stop at...

    Interesting. When my kids had driving school recently their instructor said this advise is old school and they no longer advise staying that far back. Their reasoning was the added safety feature of being closer to the edge of the road for improved visibility is far greater than the extremely...

    I'm not optimistic for 2 reasons. First, I live in the Northeast where only a handful of owners have V12. Second, I have HW4. But I do expect a bigger drop overnight.

    Obviously. My question was if you were a passenger would you notice the speed issues you mentioned? It's not unreasonable to think that most of use who adjust speeds would care less it we weren't driving. Especially if we were in the back seat. I adjust speeds frequently and I'm beginning...

    If you were being driven by Waymo do you think you would have noticed the problems reported above if Waymo did them and you were in the back seat? With every release I've always found my number 1 intervention is to adjust speed yet when I'm in a taxi or Uber I never pay attention to speed. I...

    Have 11k miles on my current Model Y since last August. 95% using FSD. Why not 100%? That's easy. Thats when my spouse is with me on city/street drives and not a chance I'll use FSD unless it is on the highway with her. :) Of course the reason I don't have V12 yet is I live in the Northeast...

    Going wide.......next joke :) When FSD is rolled out to the Northeast states than FSD will actually be going wide. Does help to validate my experience that FSD struggles mightily with our unusual intersections and roads. Good example below. To take a left onto Boston Road from Lexington road...

    Thanks for brightening up my day :) . Driving in the land where many roads (i.e. paths) were designed by horses and cows in the 1600's and 1700's testing V12 will be interesting. Can't wait to try it at some of the obstructed view intersections where FSD is simply unsafe to use now...

    Elon initially said that last summer when Tesla offered to transfer FSD if you purchased a new car by 9/30. Everyone was pleasantly surprised when HW4 support came out within a few weeks. HW4 support was available for V12 within a couple of weeks after the Employee rollout and Omar and many...

    Your post in wrong on a couple of points. First "to place all responsibility" is not accurate. Tesla has FSD QA drivers doing validation along with Tesla employees before the public gets the release. On several occassions the result of Tesla employee testing has resulted in update point...

    Cybertruck is a scam.

    I won't argue whether it's ugly or not since that depends on who you talk to. Just remember that when the VW Bug came out many said it was ugly too but over 23 million were sold. Only time will tell after the CT has been around a few years what it's legacy will be. I just think we should wait...

    Just wondering what you will say when the production run rate for the CT is greater than any other EV truck. Good chance that will happen sometime next year.

    @sdtslafan If you own a Tesla you can see the different camera views when you're in park. Select Service then scroll down to Camera Preview. You can then select which camera to view. As mentioned above the cameras have a 360 degree view. The problem is when you have obstructed views.

    Cybertruck is a scam.

    For those wondering how the CT ramp is going at GigaTexas these snippets from the daily GigaTexas video are pretty surprising. The ramp appears to be going much better than most expected. Not included are more trucks at 10:09 getting charged and 12:21 where the trucks are being loaded, Link...

    Lumping L3 and L4 together doesn't reflect the significant difference in the requirements of each. I could easily see L3 being available long before L4.

    Except that she goes all the back to the Roadster, has owned other Tesla's since and been testing FSDBeta for awhile so doubt she wasn't aware of the potential consequences.

    FSD V12 (end to end AI)

    My understanding was she was a Roadster owner back in 2010 along with owning other Tesla's thru the years. Will be interesting to find out what happened. If she was an original Roadster owner good chance Elon knows her which may explain why he replied to her posting.

    She called it a "perfect" drive. Is it always necessary to nitpick every video when we don't have the same perspective as the driver?

    TeslaScope has reported they expect a quicker and larger rollout for 12.3 than 12.2.x so let's hope a lot more of us get V12.3 soon.

    Teslascope also stated V12.3 has been under going general testing but they weren't clear if that meant employees or internal FSD QA testers.

    What does this video have to do with the title of this thread?

    We're basically saying the same thing just differently. FSD should have moved over if there was room and/or at least slowed down.
  38. A

    FSD V12 (end to end AI)

    And how is this different than any vehicle that potentially can move into your cars space from any direction? As a driver you make decisions like this all the time. FSD could have behaved differently based purely on vision.

    Agree. Where I live two things are common. First, school buses with flashing lights and other drivers who flash their headlights telling me to go. The latter happens every day. Or some people wave you to go. And once winter has passed then it's the daily or multiple times a day police or...

    Thanks for all your feedback. Assuming V12.3 continues the improvement how far away do you believe FSD is from being safe enough to take elderly parents to places like the doctors office or the grocery store? Assuming the elderly person can handle parking at the end of the ride and/or a...

    Getting closer? First indication issues may be resolved so maybe something will happen this weekend. Even so would likely just mean employees get a new build first but who knows.

    This statement isn't consistent with the driver/passenger feedback I've heard in the majority of videos. Comments are much more positive than any release we've seen before.
  45. A

    FSD V12 (end to end AI)

    Well with the high number of recent videos which are including parking lots I'd say V12 users disagree with you. Since your going slow as long as you're really careful shouldn't be much of a problem. I know once I get V12 I'll try some out.

    You'll just have to ask your wife to sit in the back where passengers don't seem to pay as much attention. (Disclaimer here- I cannot use FSD on city/streets with my wife in the car). :)

    FSD V12 (end to end AI)

    Funny you say that because I've seen a lot of videos with parking lots included. Far more videos relative to the small number of testers and for the most part V12 parking lot driving is significantly better than V11 based on what I've watched and driver feedback. And yes I know all about the...

    This happens frequently to me with V11. (a few times a week) Usually if nobody is near me and if I'm familiar with the corner/posts I let FSD correct itself. I used to disengage and let Tesla know but I figure nobody at Tesla pays attention to anything V11.

    Would love to see V12 try this with heavy traffic. Regardless still something I've never had V11 do. Even if heavy traffic prevented this I wonder if V12 would have driven up the road and then done a U-turn which we now know is supported?
