    Amazing example of Tesla's ability to characterize obstacles

    Why do you think they call it In and Out? But I usually keep it to 25! :-)

    Amazing example of Tesla's ability to characterize obstacles

    Seems like it would need to know the difference between a pedestrian next to a STOP sign, and a road worker holding a STOP sign to do the correct thing on auto drive. One, you stop and go again when no other traffic, but the other you need to wait for the STOP to disappear. Seems like an...

    German Court Bans Tesla from Advertising Autopilot

    <2 cents> I'm not sure I agree that the hardware is capable. There has always been an argument that without a LiDAR or something similar to properly measure distances and objects, that FSD might not be possible. Musk wanted to prove everybody wrong. S far, he has not. I seldom turn on the full...

    Poll: Is FSD Worth the Cost?

    I am not holding my breath on FSD. NOA I also find worthless. It seems to want to change lanes for an upcoming exit way too early. I use auto-steer and smart cruise control all the time, but often have to leave auto-steer off. In California, I have stickers that let me use the car pool lane by...

    The four cameras saved me $1000 and my driving record...

    Hope this works out for you. I got hit like that the third week I owned my car. I was very pleased that I had video. In the front camera video, it looks like has started to change lanes and you just kept going forward. So I can see why he feels you "hit him." Nice try on his part, but since he...

    Updated iPhone X to iOS 13 now doesn’t work as key [Update: go to Settings > Privacy > Bluetooth]

    I am on latest updates on all, and only noticed this immediately after the iOS update. A buddy of mine who worked in test at Tesla said when near the car, turn Bluetooth off and then back on and try again. Strangely, that worked. I do note now though that the Tesla app needs to be running...

    Plaid Edition Model S to Get Seven Seats, Production Starts Late 2020

    The only problem it that damn explosion that happens occasionally after leaving Hyperspace. :-)

    Tesla Supercharger network

    Thanks for the update. Good info. And yet still no Supercharger in a city were there are many packed freeways (580, 880, 980, 80, 24, 13), thousands of Tesla cars on the street, and a very large tech population: Oakland, CA This city is a desert for SuperChargers

    Stream Amazon Music?

    I don’t believe I said “any Tesla” actually. But in scrolling through the screen options for connectivity on my Model 3, I saw an entry that said WiFi sharing. I have not tried it though. Maybe it means something different?

    Stream Amazon Music?

    I have been in a model S where they had an Amazon Dot Bluetooth paired (not sure exactly how they did that) and plugged into the usb port for power. You may still have to use your own phone as a hot spot. I think the model 3 lets you share it’s WiFi. Talked about here: Amazon Echo Dot in your...

    Oakland, Berkeley, Alameda & Piedmont such a desert for Superchargers

    Bruce: Not exactly Bruce, it was the other way around. The change of jobs was the reason for finally buying the Tesla. I have a long commute in mostly heavy traffic, and auto pilot and cruise will make that drive MUCH less stressful. Before, I did not drive much at all, worked from home, and...

    Oakland, Berkeley, Alameda & Piedmont such a desert for Superchargers

    Thanks BluZap, I appreciate the message. I solved this a different way. I started working at Apple (again) and they have ChargePoint chargers in many garages near me. So I am charging to the 85% point each day, keeping it mostly full at work. My daily round trip is about 100 miles, and I can't...

    Oakland, Berkeley, Alameda & Piedmont such a desert for Superchargers

    Wow there are a lot of self-righteous people on this forum. I thought this would be a great place to chat and share some tips and experiences, maybe get some help, but obviously I was mistaken. Or should just plan on becoming just as self-righteous after being here for some time? Is it the...

    Oakland, Berkeley, Alameda & Piedmont such a desert for Superchargers

    Thanks jboy and econalan. The install and pull of the circuit and cable should be in two weeks. I was just looking for a short term solution. I have to pass the factory every day so maybe I'll add a little there. Thanks. M3BlueGeorgia, ecarfan, thanks, in the works. There is 240v to a spa about...

    Oakland, Berkeley, Alameda & Piedmont such a desert for Superchargers

    Wow, a snarky answer. Thanks, I was expecting at least one. Not at all disappointed. (Its why I bought a long range, thank you.)

    Oakland, Berkeley, Alameda & Piedmont such a desert for Superchargers

    Thanks JPP. That I do know, which is why I mentioned all the freeways that converge and go through the cities. 880 is used for long distance travel, 80 across the bay bridge is used, and finding charging in San Francisco will be even more difficult. 80 is also a router to Sacramento and north...

    Oakland, Berkeley, Alameda & Piedmont such a desert for Superchargers

    Having JUST acquired my Black on Black Model 3 (dual motor, long range) I am surprised that there are no superchargers close to Oakland. There are hundreds of Tesla owners in my neighborhood alone. And Piedmont is awash with cars, but not a supercharger to be seen. We have a lot of freeways too...
