I was responding to a post with photos in the daytime. And no, the ones in bright daylight are the worst. It increases the contrast between the very bright car and the dark gaps.

That, or working for Tesla implies an IQ higher than the average commuter.Thats what autopilot teaches. Relaxed commute driving with safe distances
In my BMW, my use active cruise control quite a bit. I have noticed that doing this has required brake pad replacements quite early compared to earlier vehicles. Even the service technician noted this as being odd. Is this also true of the Tesla autopilot? if used > 80% of the time, would it wear out the pads even faster than otherwise normally for Tesla?
Regardless, can't wait to get my 3.. east coast 1st time buyer here and totally excited!

Should not use any brake pads at all, just regenerative braking.

Model 3's sculpted lines has a high number of personalities depending on which direction you look at it from. I wonder if that optical set of illusions was cast into it on purpose. They look nice!I prefer the view of the front but unfortunately it wouldn't be safe for me to take pictures that way.
From the vantage point of the roadster (low to the ground), it looks like a squished X in the rear
Yep, brake pads last forever in a Tesla, cruise control or not.
Been using AP1 on my Model S (New Oct 2015) since Jan 2016. Original pads, 25-26k miles.

Eh, not exactly... TACC can't see very far ahead so it ends up using the friction brakes quite a bit more than an attentive driver would (the key to maximizing regenerative braking is being attentive and driving predictively rather than reactively). TACC's braking behavior has improved significantly over the past couple years, but it's still not perfect.

Well known fact in the auto industry; white accentuates uneven panel gaps and black accentuates panel blemishes and distortions. Choose wisely.

That is 91.44 meters, so around 4seconds from 0-100m which is slighlty faster than Usain Bolt record of 9.58 seconds
I ask myself how the Camera man did know that the car will stop exactly at his/her position? Maybe just coincidence or they did know that they do stop at the same spot all the time.... or its a leaked video designed by Tesla to create some good mood.....
