Nothing happened to cause it, but I have a new theory about some of the haters. Ethic jokes (such as Polish or Italian, to pick some less sensitive examples) have been a no-no for some time now - not saying that it isn't an improvement to be rid of those, but they were an outlet for some sort...

Seems like the sort of update that might require both vehicle and app updates (since they have to both be able to communicate about something they didn't before).

Not weight, aerodynamics. Wouldn't expect much of a difference, the shape isn't bad in that regard. Not a mod fan for cosmetics or unless the practical gains clearly outweigh the maintenance complications. Even with a good compact multiview (rear and both sides) display, IMO mirrors are a...

Many people name their vehicles (and there's a place you can enter that on a Tesla, so you can tell them apart on the app if you have more than one). A name might suggest some non-gender-specific attribute (like "Enterprise"). In English although not all other languages, ships tend to be...

And while I don't know if I'd bother for something so impractical, if it were up high when parked it would cut out those "is it really a truck?" remarks. :-)

If you find the right seat (not backrest) angle and height, you might not need your legs straight out to be reasonably comfortable.

Golf carts are geezer mode all the time. :-)

Use chill, which also reduces unnecessary lane changes. Yes, you should be willing to adjust settings. Not everyone wants the same behavior you want. Would be nice if there was a “strict” mode with an easy toggle, for small towns, school zones, etc.

Cheap? I wonder what the average cost of that is, esp. for a CT/CB. I suspect that if someone takes full advantage (charging minimally at home), that could be $200/month easily, probably more. In ten years (and a CT should last easily twice that), $24k. Granted they'd be getting your "fee" up...

Vin number shouldn't matter. Location probably matters, that seems to be what really determines when one gets an update relative to everyone else. That and maybe how aggressively it's being pushed out. Some just seem slower than others.

Hydrochloric (muriatic) acid is available in big hardware stores by the gallon, about $10 (not sure the strength, but it will etch concrete). Also as 14.5% HCL powder for swimming pool pH adjustment. And that's one of the most damaging acids with respect to stainless steel. Vandalizing a car is...

Since AFAIK it doesn't read "no right on red" signs (some of which are even worse because they only apply during certain hours, such as one by a school near me), IMO if there's any doubt at all it should wait for you to tap the pedal. I'd also like to know if it's aware that DC is entirely no...

I had a very brief (less than a minute) glitch yesterday later than that. But it was shortly after pulling away from home WiFi causing it to connect to cellular data...which apparently didn't happen as smoothly as usual. Insofar as it was hitting multiple people at the same time, it was likely...

I didn't miss the point. I also didn't feel deceived, or anything at all. (Spock, minus the seven year problem, is the ideal.) Obviously no filter provides a spring fresh scent and unicorn fart bubbles. My point was compare facts; advertising is not about truth anyway. It has accomplished all...

Basenor: $44.99 Tesla: $100.00 That assumes the Basenor is about as good. It MIGHT be better, given that it claims an activated carbon stage, and Tesla's doesn't. Of course that's more use for smells than particles, and doesn't inform about particle count or flow rate or filter life or any of...

Have you tried recalibrating the cameras? (quickest place is clearly marked middle lane of a 3+ lane each way interstate, probably in the daytime) Not saying it will help, but be interesting to know if it did.

If positional accuracy were sufficient, you'd think it would be easy to set a specific parking spot. But I think that cellular+GPS etc is borderline on that, although it's better than some years ago. And AFAIK, recognition of markings or signs for a parking spot name or number is zero...

Googling around some, comments suggest that they once used Gotham but now use Universal Sans.

Weight difference? Does it interfere with any attachment or lifting points, or affect ground clearance? Is it reasonable to suppose that it would transfer force in an impact at least as correctly as the OEM bumper? Is the size about the same (so that FSD/autopark allowances for vehicle size...

Pushing the voice button and saying “turn off wiper” worked for me. Don’t have to look at the screen to do that.
