After 6 weeks of driving with Creep ON (old habits/preferences - from driving an automatic ICE - die hard!), for the past week and a bit, decided to try driving with Creep OFF.
I may just be reading too much into it, but, for the first time, I actually felt the driving feel to be the same that I experienced during my two test drives last summer in an 85 and a P85 - much more "stiffer" (or less "wimpy", if you will) and with greater feedback through the accelerator pedal!
I seem to have much better control in using regen precisely to slow the car down just as much as needed. I am also enjoying stop-and-go driving more than I used to with Creep wherein I had to switch to the brake pedal much more often.
And, reversing into parking spots seems to have actually gotten easier with my being able to exert just the right bit of pressure on the acc pedal to precision-guide the car into the spot.
One of the reasons that I started out with Creep for was the fear of pushing back too quickly in tight parking spots and either ending up in a collision or into pedestrians when backing out; but, this fear seems ill-founded and, if anything, I feel more in control now.
Anyone else tried to compare?
