    Magnetic sticker damage - how to restore stainless steel finish?

    I was able to get pretty close to original finish using ScotchBrite.: https://www.cybertruckownersclub.com/forum/threads/matching-the-stainless-steel-finish-door-hole-mirror-delete-covers.24009/

    How do you use your ASS?

    That would be fine. Just knowing which way it intends to go as it leaves the parking spot would be a big help. I don't need to see the whole path.

    How do you use your ASS?

    I wish the app would show the route it plans to take before we start motion. First time I tried to use it, it went the wrong way and out of site around the corner of the building. At that point I halted it and jogged over to it to avoid blocking the road.

    FSD 14.3.3 is out with 2026.14.6.6 Spring Update

    Navigation definitely took at least two steps back on 14.3.3. Picks routes that don't even work (like tries to take a gated road now on my commute to work which it didn't use to). Also, it no longer displays alternate routes on the map for you to select. It just picks a [broken] route and...

    New Patent May Get Us Matrix Headlights

    Maybe they are talking about the frequency of the PWM modulation? If they could design photochromatic dye to respond to that, it would be pretty cool.

    New Patent May Get Us Matrix Headlights

    OK. This does sound clever but I am still mystified on exactly how they plan to actually change the headlight LED wavelength to activate the photochromatic dye. I thought LEDs were fixed wavelength. Even after phosphor conversion, the wavelengths are essentially fixed. I wish there was a...

    Most Useful L-Track Mounts?

    Yes. Although the shelf can stay in place with the tent (by design), the tire does have to be removed.

    ASS coming soon - "Summon for Cybertruck rolling out shortly"

    This is a feature I've been waiting for for a long time but not for parking lot use. So I can watch the clearance as I creep over obstacles. Not for rock crawling, I am often driving across farm roads and fields to do spot welding fixes here and there. I often have to straddle an irrigation...

    ASS coming soon - "Summon for Cybertruck rolling out shortly"

    Woo hoo! Great progress. I have to admit it had me worried that it was talking Tesla so long to release this. Am still hoping for "Summon On Steroids" some day (dumb summon with full front and rear steering control for self-spotting through tricky terrain).

    Are you streaking?

    I don't disagree. There have been plenty of times that I took over only to learn after the fact that there was a good reason FSD was doing what it was doing. So I have learned to be cautious before taking over whenever it isn't doing what I think it should do. In one, particularly impactful...

    Are you streaking?

    I also end my streak twice a day when I park both at work and home. I deliberately avoid trying to increase my streak. I think it was a bad idea for Tesla to introduce this feature and gamify FSD. If we are hesitant to take over when we really should it makes the roads a little less safe. I...

    Last minute lane change?

    I usually give it a nudge with the turn signal long before FSD ever decides to get over. FSD has gotten a lot better but still drives like it is in Boston.
