Plot thickens: Is this a way for Putin to pleed/whitewash insanity? Seems too convenient for all the war crimes that have transpired. If this was true they probably bought the media too, and heads will fall there soon, too. But it seems just too far fetched with all the initial dialog...

True, but maybe humanoid drones will just operate things like tanks, mobile launchers, etc. without the risk of loss of operating personnel.

Drones, drones, drones. Soon maybe humanoid drones.

Unless you have satisfactory aftermarket replacements for these, a couple of seconds is not worth tens of thousands of dollars if you don't have them in excess. BTW: There is nothing good in the new steering wheel with its haptic buttons, it might even be a showstopper. At least I am going to...

If you don't expect to get your CT by the end of 2024, or need more wading depth /s Or need a tank turn (so cool):

Bad optics

No, they were told it's not nice to do that /s

I hope the "free world" is taking notes. It would be embarrassing to be unprepared and say "we didn't know" when the next drone superpower(s) arise after this war.

I don't see any value added on highway in comparison to autopilot (assuming autopilot will get as good as FSD when it is all single stack). And I doubt it is sufficiently mad max for my liking ;)

It's simply not that valuable or average Joe, but if you'r into having a ride sharing business, that's a whole different ball game. If Tesla bots would take care of all the grunt work related to renting out a car, I might consider having a fleet, but only if it required zero of my time and...

Record video of footwell as well as the screen for evidence. We would love to see it and you should report it to NTHSA for recall purposes.

Sounds like you haven't driven the X 🤣

I doubt Tesla can control the interest rates, they don't operate as banks for the financing deals.

I have to admit I got mine in a mad Demo discount. Wouldn't pay anything for it, but it's nice to have in case it becomes useful and starts riding my kids to school without me in the vehicle. But I doubt that happening within the time I plan to keep the car (hopefully it's transferable to the...

Closer to end of quarter latest you'll get all kinds of inventory discounts, or more for Demo cars.

Cool. Take Russia to the stone age with respect to Oil refineries and war technology. Leave the peaceful citizens be.

Nice summary, live by the sword, die by the sword:

Nice alternative for the CT.

You mean $77,990? And Plaid $92,990. It seems some serious deflation going on. Stock prices tanking. Prices tanking.

In my previous car I blew (well... wore out) my own DSG transmission and it never felt the same after that, but I guess the more moving parts and power you have it's to be expected.

They might leave more legroom to the rear.

From the sound of it, seems all was good with the transmission you got, except the one month wait time (if they gave you a similar loaner for that time you would have been good?)?

Why didnt you get the new Taycan instead? I can barely stomach an ICE car any more, I don't have the patience for the laggy throttle response/downshifting.

Which figures are better for this thickness rather than the 5.5mm shim?

I finally understand why Audi and BMW drivers don't use blinkers. They must have these darn haptic on-steering-wheel-blinkers. I just don't bother anymore (/s), they work 70% of the time even if I try. I was about to propose swapping the blinkers for the left scroll wheel/button/joystick, but...

It looked like the Tesla can be so crooked it's a crap shoot what you get ;) Nevertheless, an interesting crapshoot ;) My guess is the bolt is that 5mm longer as there is space for it.

Why not:

Here, several pages worth of suggestions.

The red ones are 5.5mm.

Edutainment.

I believe they are preparing for similar build process for S/X as the 2-series car (wouldn't make sense to build in a more inefficient way) and will eventually sell these in large volumes at lower cost. Should come out (deliveries) before the 2 so they can charge premiums for "sigature edition"...

Are they retrofittable?

Extreme form of recycling similar to the stealing of car headlights. /s

I wouldn't buy the Highland for a year since bleeding edge, especially after a bad experience. Thus I'd go for a solid Y.

This is why stories teach not to kill all the baddies ;)

Some good perspectives/arguments:

I hope they don't use that to build dams ;)

That's a bit extreme for something you can easily DIY with aftermarket parts less the fsd bit ;) I personally wouldn't wait for a mini refresh it's not worth the wait or price as all mini refresh items you can get easily aftermarket if you 'really' want them.

There goes a foregone conclusion ;)

I guess everyone who wanted, already got theirs. It might be time to start a new thread for the next refresh waiting room where S/X actually become good cars. (sarcasm not sarcasm)

Funny one:

Both sides can't afford to lose the war:

Interesting read/thread, unclear how accurate:

If you hold/press your head against the headrest, while driving rather slow on any of the suspension settings, does it ever stop rattling? I'm on Model X Plaid.

Good idea that you can use this as blocker also. However, if you want to work around this “Sorry, you can't access YouTube for Mobile Web with your account” for kids accounts, I found out that if you log into the same kids account also via the browser, then it starts working.

Only happens in movies and fairytales:

Couldn't resist:

If it's faster than a Model X Plaid people will simply buy two Model 3 Performances instead, if they need the space. And Model X can forget about selling any future "refresh" at elevated $140k price levels. /s There will also be very little reason to buy a Model S Plaid for the price/performance...
