This is EXACTLY what happened. I obviously had my hands on the steering wheel, and it all happened so fast and forcefully that I couldn't have responded fast enough to even stop it. It was exactly the right maneuver to avoid an impending collision. I suspect the upcoming driver was drunk or high...

100% correct. FSD was not engaged, but all the safety features available are "enabled" in my configuration.

One point that nearly everyone in the media NEVER brings up is that FSD is, in principle, a platform that will only get better and better over time. The primary reason for this is that the training data and the performance of the hardware platform used to produce the neural network contained in...

I've driven back from Naples to Plantation, Florida, via I-75, where it's pitch-black late at night after a 10-hour day of work. When FSD catches me with an Attention Alert, I do stop at one of the many "Rest Areas," which are completely pitch-black except for maybe one street lamp in the...

I started with Sense for my house about three years ago, and what they did is pretty amazing in terms of mapping usage patterns to appliances and things that draw power in general. It takes at least a month (back then) to accurately map devices to power curves and ramps, etc. However, I took a...

I see your point now. So, this is really more about opportunity cost since Optimus is part of their core focus in the next few years, and building a new production facility is very costly. Per NBCNEWS.com "Tesla is de-emphasizing traditional cars in favor of Robotaxi/Cybercab, Optimus, Semi...

The tax credit drove sales for Tesla, which generates profits. Since they ended, sales have dropped, and their profit, so now they have to cut costs anywhere they can to drive shareholder value. In other words, cut S & X production to drive profits up since S & X did not contribute much to...

I think this is all related to the EV tax credit non-renewal. Tesla has no choice but to cut costs, so S & X are gone, which was a tough choice. It will clearly concern existing owners, but Tesla can still support the platforms and is likely to do so for at least the next 10 years. CT may go the...

Tailgating at 65 in Sloth, Chill, Standard, and Hurry is less than 1.5 car lengths lately. I constantly have to dissengage, complain, fall back 200 ft, and reengage over my weekly 105 mile trip from Fort Lauderdale to Naples.

I had it tinted. Added IR Max 50 to factory roof-glass at AWT in Boynton, which cut IR by around 98%. Tesla said they could not replace the tint or credit.

Same here. 8 to 14 hour days, 200 miles average per day, West of civilization in Port St. Lucie, Florida for underground fiber optic cable installations. I did an inside roof-glass mount with a lightweight metal frame with two powerful suction cups suitable for the task with warning indicators...

I usually charge via 240 VAC @ 24A at home. Then, while charging, current goes to zero, and message appears on dash and App indicating a charging issue. I try to unplug and cannot, and notice charging LED near NACS connector is dead. I use emergency disco procedure in manual (easy). Book...

It's gotten so bad here in Florida, that our Florida Highway Patrol gave me a "self-report" form to handle the incident when I got "barely" hit on my rear bumper while sitting in traffic on the Florida Turnpike. I wasn't even moving, but the guy behind me hit me anyway while trying to change...

I had the unfortunate event of losing my charger controller last week while charging at home. I arrived home at 28%, plugged into one of my two chargers in my garage (I also have a Model YP), and less than an hour later, I checked the app for no particular reason, only to see "Charging Stopped"...

From what I remember here in Florida, your Drivers License is a permit, which means there are stipulations and responsibilities in place on the holder of the permit. This includes liability for property damage and injury. This is why driving off without calling the local Police is not the...

The day I returned a loaner vehicle (2021 Model Y Performance) while my CT was at the SC, I noticed my Navigation Favorites list was empty on both my personal 2022 Model YP and my 2024 CT CB. I, of course, use the same driver profile for each vehicle, and did the same with the loaner. Even...

I noticed mine was not attached properly along the leading edge, driver's side, about three weeks ago when my CT was in for unrelated service, and I happened to add this to the list of concerns. My mileage was around 36,000 when this occurred. They reattached the seal. There were several new...

Make sure Camp Mode is not enabled also. Some people do this to keep interior cool in ultra-hot climates, i.e. Me. My garage will easily top 100F by 2pm. Working on an exhaust fan option, or a heat-pump instead of an electric-coil hot water heater.

100% agree. I had mine repaired the the TCC in Fort Lauderdale last month, and nothing short of 1st class handling of my repair. The TCC is Tesla, and people need to know this. They are set up specifically for these types of repairs and nobody else really is at the end of the day. Maybe they...

I use both types of car washes, no issues whatsoever after seven months.
