    Programable Sequence of steps/settings

    I am due to pick up my Model Y. Just logged in to my Tesla Account to work on getting a loan. Now see LEASE as a payment option. The data looks crazy. Anyone see this and did Tesla just roll this out? What do you think of the lease terms?

    Waymo teams with Jaguar

    Well this will make the electric and autonomous race more interesting: Waymo and Jaguar will build up to 20,000 self-driving electric SUVs Maybe it will get Tesla's butt in gear and get their autonomous software release moving. Too bad the consumer can't buy this I-Pace.
