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

    Very different to hand-build/hand-verify ~120 packs/year (787) vs. up to millions of EV packs. Process control will accept that manufacturing is never going to be 100.0%, so build resilience in design, packaging, etc.

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

    I rented a LR MY from Hertz in July this year - no drama, no big announcements; they just had 2 in their fleet (in a pretty small area, this was not a major city). This was during the period when rentals were difficult to find anywhere, and the price was in-line with other nicer SUVs. It even...

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

    To pile on this admittedly OT area, there is a simple reason why "everyone else uses LIDAR". "Everyone else" traces their heritage to the DARPA Grand Challenges of the mid-2000s, when LIDAR was the only way to perform localization and detect obstacles. With the CNN & computer vision revolutions...

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

    I usually don't go for the conspiracy theories (recent fire, etc.), but look at the amount of money this industry is spending to delay the inevitable a little longer. A "team" to stay engaged with Joe Manchin has to cost more than a Plaid and some publicity-seeking lawyers.

    Of course, I don't have a refresh S, so I'm piecing this together like the rest of us, but I don't think that is the case. The manual excerpt states: "In most situations, these buttons are not available until you press one of the gear buttons to activate it. When active, the LEDs associated...

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

    I don't mean to presume, but that doesn't sound like my experience at all except for about a month when I had an undiagnosed asymmetric tread-wear and alignment problem - AP seemed crazy, s-turning and ping-ponging until it eventually left the lane and I needed to intervene. A new set of tires...

    I believe this counts as official information per guidance: Calling it now - nothing the constable initially spread to the media will turn out to be true. They got their clicks, though.

    Since I just want to punish myself for lack of conviction, did anyone catch what the low was this morning for the 26 Feb 700c? I'm assuming someone here made a killing...

    Watching all the swings and MM efforts, reading all the articles dissecting the inclusion and spike drop, and we end within a couple bucks of the pre-auction close last Fri. Good entertainment though!

    This is from June - cs_umd even mentioned it was from "earlier this year". Assume the employees are about 3x happier now!

    Autopilot bobbing side to side

    I have been having the same issue for the last three weeks on a 2017 AP2 MS75, coil suspension. For me it started after a tire rotation- I have re-rotated, had an alignment and balance done all to no effect. Like the OP, autosteer will depart a highway lane when engaged above 70MPH after a...
