I've never used it, but I've never encountered snow or ice to-date. Recommend it for rainy conditions where highway driving often has standing water that causes slippage? TIA.

Thanks, @gtgarner. I'll check that out. However, the scroll wheel functionality I miss is the ability to increase and decrease the CT's speed with the right scroll wheel. Now I have to change modes, which doesn't precisely go to the targeted speed, or disengage FSD and now answer Tesla's...

It seems schizophrenic for me, but I find myself having to use the accelerator more and more often to drive at the speed I want. And, it's getting worse at maintaining 85 mph on the highway--after a period of time during which it was quite solid on that front--even when traffic and road...

I'll remain content driving my Beast like a beast and getting closer to 200 miles range. :LOL::cool:;)

To get that range do we need to drive in the equivalent of Chill mode? It seems to make sense that our battery draw driving in the equivalent of Mad Max mode would have a similar impact as accelerations and higher speeds in an ICE have on fuel economy. Thanks.

I think that would look great on my all-black, carbon fiber CB . . . especially when I'm racing (and beating) Kias!

@mongo, thanks for the idea. I have done that reset for other reasons at some point after the driver's side mirror started acting up, but worth another shot. The other reasons I don't think it's a profile matters are (a) no one else has set a profile and (b) it's only the driver's side mirror...

I'm 100% certain that my driver's side mirror self-adjusts in a way that requires me to reset it several times per week. I'm toying with turning off the adjustment that lowers them when I back-up in case that might cause it. Unfortunately, I like that feature since I back into my garage, my...

I purchased a CT-specific dashboard tray that holds my phone (landscape mode) in front of me but out the internal camera's view . . . simply so I can push next on a YT video, music playlists or whatever without getting warned by FSD. Even with the tray, I don't watch anything on the phone while...

I play this for my Beast from time to time:

My disengagements are way up too, as are the inaccuracies re: posted speed limit. It was showing 45 last night on the freeway we'd spent 10 miles on already, all with a posted speed limit of 60. That said, I have found some aspects of the FSD to be improved. Mad Max makes lane changes and...

And, ironically, you seem to be refusing this change to the change. ;) A year and a half and over 20K miles later and I still f-up my signaling from time to time. Worse, I instead sometimes light the vehicle in front of me up (hitting my brights by mistake). In Texas, that can get you shot at...

Most of my driving is "off hour" freeway driving, so my problem is that even Mad Max FSD is too slow . . . and fails to maintain the Tesla-imposed maximum speed even when road conditions are safe to do so. I'm constantly re-pressing the accelerator to re-obtain that max . . . rendering FSD more...

As an endurance cyclist who has done over 20 Houston-to-Austin MS150's and as a League of American Cyclists cycling safety instructor, the whole "slower traffic keep right" thing is ingrained in my DNA. On a long, fast ride, it can be downright dangerous to pass on the right and is frowned upon...

Any prohibition on passing on the right relates to use of the shoulder, not an active lane of the subject roadway. And, regardless of the OP’s speed, he had the right away. Unless he’s doing the speed of light, he’s visible. Max speed of 117 mph is fairly shy of that speed and his speed was by...
