I have a 2018 Model 3 with FSD and have been using FSD on that regularly since 2019. So lots of experience from all those versions. I've had the Cybertruck since February (first group in Florida, yay!). What my experience between the two with regards to FSD is it feels like the Cybertruck is on...
"Progressive Insurance? I'd like to file a claim on my Cybertruck. I was hit by... uh... a bison. Yes. That's what I said. A bison. It came out of nowhere!"
We made a trip to LaGrange, GA where they have an animal sanctuary that is safari themed. Most people rent a beat up vehicle on site to drive through the safari, but they do allow you to drive your own vehicle after signing a waiver about possible damage done by animals. We signed the waiver and...
What's funny is the old highway stack was amazing. It wasn't perfect, but it didn't require me to intervene in some way or another so often. I have a 2018 Model 3 I bought new and that used to be our long distance vehicle because driving it on the highways was stress free. Now with the truck...
Just drove about 700 miles on the new update (north Florida to south Florida and back again. Ugh.). Some quick observations to answer earlier questions (while it is fresh in my head). The trip down was all daylight and with automatic speed control off, and 15% above speed limit max setting. The...
It's all swamp down here in Florida. We have some trails nearby where I regularly take people to in the truck. Water goes up over the wheels (and I'm in wade mode). Tons of fun, but my truck is literally never clean. I joke with people that when it gets a bit dirty (dust from the dirt parking...
I'm happy your service center is well staffed and treating you well, but that doesn't help the others who have had terrible experiences at ours. Some centers are just simply overworked, understaffed, undertrained, and under equipped.
I guess it would be more helpful if the original poster asked...
I don't blame you, and that's a decision everyone should make with full info. I don't regret the truck purchase one bit because it's an incredibly useful truck while also being very fun to own, but lords that period of it all was very frustrating.
We documented ours in this thread here:

TLDL: the experience was awful. Took 5 months to replace one defective tire and a rattling glove box in the end.
I have a 2018 Model 3...
Or "FSD is not good enough to make left turns in the CT". Because that was my experience as well as others here. I turned it on, drove straight for 5 blocks, and nearly crashed into the car sitting patiently at their stop sign as I turned left nearly into their car before having to take over...
Oh, hi! I sort of me you and your family early on then. Your husband and I nerded out some before my wife, daughter, and I hit the offroad trails there. :)
Cheers!
Okay, back with some videos of driving on the offroad portion. Forgive my novice video editing. The first video is my wife driving who has a healthy fear of heights. She struggles to stand on ladders. These "Florida mountains" were fun!
Then for those of you who care, here are some spliced...
Here are some quick photos of the lightshow setup, the truck that drove to the Arctic and back, and my wife and daughter getting ready to drive the trails (we'll have videos on this once I've done some editing).
Links are to a couple of the practice runs we did setting up for the lightshow...
I will add some photos and possibly a video once I get it all together. It really was a blast. Just a bunch of like minded geeks together sharing one afternoon of amazing fun. Can't wait for the next one!
We have one of the very first Cybertrucks driven off the service center's lot in Florida mid-February. It has about 6200 miles of city, highway, and regular offroad driving. AWD version. Plenty of fast acceleration moments when showing off the truck to friends and family, but daily driving is...
That is indeed my plan going forward, though we are a couple of months away from the service center here in Gainesville being opened up. It's literally right down the street from me. So while I'm not looking forward to needing service on my truck (the two current open recalls), at least I know...
Which service center was it out of curiosity? I've had absolutely miserable experiences with the Jacksonville, FL one for example. But others have had wonderful experiences at their local service centers. I too have to drive an hour+ to get to the nearest one (Jacksonville), and pray I never...
