I thought the GM Silverado RST had four wheel steering would may help it ... but you have to get the RST trim.

A critical thinking aspect of this is what's the best selling car size+shape (maneuverability and inside volume) for sales not only inside and outside of the USA ... if you are trying to move toward large volume sales.
Not sure that is a good comparison of sales numbers considering that the X (Late2015/2016) and S (mid-2012) have been around for years and the CT just 1.5 yrs (Nov-2023).
We'd need to see how the CT does over 2+ years and especially in the 2025 pivotal year.
The S hit 50K one year and had some...
" 1 January 1970 – this date is also known as the Unix epoch or POSIX time, and is used by many Unix and Unix-like systems and programming languages "
All the other new Tesla cars get AutoPilot (AutoSteer & [T]ACC) for *free* with the purchase of the car.
Tesla would like to force you to pay for FSD on your CT ... ideally pay them monthly.
Keep in mind that other car companies outside of the USA are providing AP/EAP/FSD like features for...
"As we improve our Autopilot technology, our feature sets will change. Accordingly, Autosteer will
not be available for Cybertruck outside of Full Self-Driving (Supervised)."
All info is clear that Autopilot is a combo of 2 things ("suite"): AutoSteer (lane centering) AND TACC (aka Adaptive...
It sure seems like Tesla was trying to force CT owners to buy FSD but not initially putting in AutoPilot.
All info is clear that Autopilot is a combo of 2 things: AutoSteer (lane centering) AND TACC (aka Adaptive Cruise Control -- distance to car ahead).
See manual differences in this post...
People have been questioning Tesla "method" of counting for a while.
You can search for this in Google/X/etc to see various questions: Tesla airbag NHTSA

That is a redirection/misdirection. I'm not biting.
We were specifically talking about how the CT is being strongly associated with EM.
You thought there was only one reason. I pointed out there are many reasons and they keep stacking up. CT is tied closely to EM and his "recent" actions and...
FYI, I asked several LLMs (5+) and they all gave long list in 3-5 different categories. Many more than your Nazi salute example. I include Grok in that LLM list and it had 6 categories and 2-3 bullet points in each. Using LLMs is only one example where you can get outside of a Tesla bubble to...
Telling you what I see outside the Tesla bubble.
EMs changes have been very very recent in people's memories by comparison to WWII (80=2025-1945).
P.S. my profile to the left tells you what I drive.
Everything I see once I'm outside of the Tesla bubble place is that you made the choice of the CT (closely associated with EM) *after* EM showed his current self.
Therefore there is no "benefit of the doubt" on your conscientious choices.
In their minds you find it all OK.
Just telling you...
Thanks much for all that. Very interesting indeed.
The above part to me is still fuzzy in that I don't know if a robotaxi is a 'car in the fleet.' eg. in their public purchasable fleet or a specialized Tesla taxi fleet with a different legal defn. Also I think the specialized geofenced (etc)...
To be clear, I'm not at all doubting your expertise here. I rather like your no-nonsense logical post.
I have followed AP & later FSD pretty closely and have used it since my 2016 Signature TMX (ordered 3 yrs before that ... thinking it would be 1 yr or less!).
Here is the million dollar...
Curious. I suspect Tesla will drag their "beta" and "supervised" nomenclature on for many years. (eg. what will be the claimed 'complete' date - years from now). My June built 2017 TMX was prior to HW2.5 but I paid for "FSD" so I did get HW3 and upgraded cameras. The new cameras (along with...
That is unclear. I'm finding references to it in articles and the Munro video.
There is also a question if redundancy is 'required' for unsupervised ("level 4/5") FSD. ala RoboTaxi. [Level 4 Requirements: Level 4 autonomy means the vehicle can operate without human intervention within a...
Tesla/Musk was bragging about their new "FSD chip" and how it had redundancy. That was 100% talked about on the Tesla’s Autonomy Investor Day. Green has consistently pointed out when they went over their limits and could no longer have redundancy. Some people (not necessarily you) have really...
Tesla very recently went down an AI 'company' route. Look at their early master plans (URL). Build expensive cars up front ... then build smaller cheaper cars. You are late to all this only only look at the past year. I can't take you seriously at all with those types of remarks ignoring...
