This is why I don't used FSD supervised. The driver clearly had 5-6 seconds to react and didn't. This should never have been that close to disaster. I fear I may also become complacent and needlessly endanger myself and others trusting an ADAS system just good enough to let your guard done...

You're not missing much. This should go both ways. Musk should have to pay back shares if the valuation of TSLA goes dow There are already vehicles (including my wife's) that let you text and drive. It's done hands free by voice commands. Much easier to do that than reduce FSD errors a 1000...

I think the biggest issue is he'll potentially get paid hundreds of time more than any other CEO, if TSLA stock price increases at a little over 3% annually ($2 trillion market cap could pay out $200 billion) for the next decade. That's an absurd payout for what is likely underperforming the...

Thanks for backing up what I posted. Since the Cybertruck is roughly 0.1% of pickups on U.S. roads its fatality rate is very similar to all pickups. However the average pickup on the road is over a decade older than the average age of a Cybertruck. Now go compare the Cybertruck fatality rate to...

Unfortunately with Teslas there is an extreme mismatch with IIHS safety ratings and real world fatalities. So far the Cybertruck is no exception. Ford Lightning has sold more overall and been on the road longer than the Cybertruck. Not surprisingly given it's a low volume vehicle there have been...

0-60 mph in 6.5 isn't slow for a truck. This is especially true for one that weighs over 3 tons. Cybertrucks already have a very high fatality rate per mile driven. How many of those incinerated after losing control of their Cybertrucks were in Cyberbeasts.? The problem isn't the single motor...

Not something I would try. Obviously for clicks. But whatever floats your boat. Speaking of boats why don't you try crossing the mile long Brazo Santiago Pass (waterway between SPI and Boca Chica) as Musk advertised it would be capable of. At least when it sinks, it won't take 3 days to recover.

Just be sure you want to keep your Cybertruck longterm. Trading in very low milage Cybertrucks that are a year old currently comes with a 35-45% depreciation. On the flip side you might see if you can get a low milage one and save 40 grand while only losing 5000 miles of warranty.

Saudis have a 10% Tarrif on U.S. Vehicles imported.

No surprise. It was always vaporware to draw attention away from the trimotor being almost 200 miles short of original predictions.

I'm glad I dumped my Cybertruck before Musk went totally whacko so that I loss relatively little. But seriously who would have thought that exposed stainless steel panels with adhesive only and without sufficient back up fastening would eventually fail. Certainly not a durable design from the...

Looks like he skipped the coffee for several Bloody Mary's that morning. .

Technically? He was 100% at fault. I doubt he looked at all. Even if she had stopped when she saw him backing up, it would have just changed where he hit her.

At 65 mph on winding and uphill stretches like Park City to Evanston, WY most Semis do drive faster than 65 mph but not at 80 mph. So they'll get in the left lane for long periods of time and block others because you chose to drive very slowly on the Interstate. If you wanted to drive at 65 mph...

"Speed: set to a max 65 for duration of trip" Really you did 65 mph on I-80 through Nevada, UT and Wyoming? In much of that it's 15 MPH below the speed limit and 18-19 mph below typical traffic flow. How much did you get honked at for impeding traffic and unnecessarily causing a road hazard?

You're way too kind. But I'll bite my tongue and not go into detail how rational people see the Cyberbeast. However I don't think it's a coincidence that the 4 individuals that were totally incinerated in Cybertruck accidents were in Cyberbeasts.

I'm surprised by Ford F150 Lightning sales, maybe that's partially because the vehicle isn't very noticeable unless up close. That gives the lightning about 73,000 vehicles sold since introduction. I remember being shot down (about 3 years ago) for stating the Cybertruck would likely pass the...

To donate is to give a gift. Here it could be give Cybertrucks or give a service (temporary use of Cybertrucks). Again the recipient gives a receipt (ie 12 Cybertrucks for 28 days). Tesla could then present that to the IRS with fair market value of the service (Cybertrucks generally rent for...

I don't know about all the Cybertrucks but it does mention : " Tesla has donated multiple Cybertrucks to be utilized as battery banks for Altadena Mountain Rescue at their station until power is restored." above. Altadena Mountain Rescue Team is a 501(c) (Nonprofit). They give Tesla a receipt...

Simple answer just garage it all the time. Oh wait..... never mind.
