Tesla, if your listening, please start a rental program where us classic owners can rent an AP car for a modest fee when we want to do road trips. I'll be happy to beta test for you on my trip to Florida next week.

about to be a first tesla owner

Im happy to drive under my own power

but I like the music

PS I swear it looks like he keeps adjusting the wheel.....

 

[JMG]

I think he's either hitting the turn signal or increasing the cruise control speed.

Try that.

I see him touching the wheel a lot too. Hope you don't have to fight with it a lot.

I never saw him touch the wheel, but he just can't seem to keep his hand away from the two stalks on the left side, adjusted speed and used turn signals for lane changing almost constantly.

No, look closer. He's manipulating the cruise stalk and turn signal. No hands on wheel.

The reason no nag appears is because he was never in the far right hand lane where he would encounter an exit lane or a lane widening on ramp. The lane lines were constant and the same width apart.

 

[msnow]

Yep you're right. Just watched it again. Main display looks the same.

Nice find on the video.
I found a few things interesting:

1. In the IC's center display, there is a graph that reflects when the side ultrasonic sensors are picking up something (the left rail was making it come on a lot)

2. While changing lanes, the line in the direction of the lane change went from solid to dotted, and the car made its way across it in sync with the car's actual movement - nice touch on the UI

3. There's a seemingly new icon in the apps tray that looks like a home - could it be they moved the homelink (garage opener) to an actual app? EDIT: never mind, its probably just the energy app icon.

I think he was trying to demonstrate the automatic lane changing quite a bit, which requires that he initiate the lane change with the directional signal.

This is almost like Christmas Eve except I don't know if Santa is coming Thursday, Friday or next week.

Are you just guessing here, or is this based on actual experience with v7 in Tesla? Is this an assumption based on your experience with cars that have Lane Keeping?

So funny, and so right.

Where have you read that? That would be pretty useless, it would mean that you have to stop after every parking spot, and switch to R just to see if the spot is suitable for auto parallel parking. I don't think so. And the guy here who could already try it out clearly says the P appears on the dash as soon as you drive past a suitable spot lower than 15mph. Then, if you want to park in this spot, you stop and switch to R which activates the camera and auto parking guide on the touch screen with a button to start the auto parking process.

That's the way in works in the MB. It sees the spot and then you activate the auto-park by shifting into R. But it took a long time. Any reasonably good driver could have parked it much quicker. I never used it in my MB for that reason.
