I too considered both with a similar buyer profile as the OP. I test drove the CB and it certainly had the wow factor above and beyond the AWD. So I placed an order for one (FS CB in Jan-25). The CB’s weren’t as readily available then so as I waited for my order to get filled, I thought...

Try backing in yourself and then on your next drive start FSD from that parked position. I think it remembers how it was parked and returns in the same way. I used FSD today from a backed in position and when I returned, completely on FSD, it went right back to that position - hands free, no...

Good research Gus! Maybe it's just an oversteer situation resulting from the gains being used in the CT's steer-by-wire controller. I drove the route again a couple times this week. On one day, conditions included patches of dense fog and drizzle to further challenge FSD. Again, there were a...

Hairpin was to the left and it seems to oversteer into oncoming.

Supercharging as the root cause for a disparity in efficiency doesn’t make sense to me. Admittedly there is some hit for preconditioning but this has to be fairly small given the relatively short time this occurs and the low electrical drain compared to energy used to drive the vehicle. I also...

Yes, the one-ways you found are accurate and FSD performs them correctly. The issue where it has consistently crossed over to oncoming traffic occurs in the hairpin near the following Google+ codes 7945+3HW Mt Baldy, CA, 7946+M7R Mt Baldy, CA and while driving in the downhill direction. I...

Congrats on the accomplishment, impressive indeed! Besides an adventuresome spirit, your perseverance with flexibility was more than evident. Thanks for taking us along.

I have had this happen and wondered the same. I often use FSD on Mt. Baldy Road in SoCal as a test case, simply to see how software updates perform. The drive consists of a mountain road with tunnels, GPS satellite obscuration, hairpin turns, and steep grades. My CT/FSD generally executes the...

I was as well. Thought they’d simply check the satellite view as it’s plain enough there. I suppose the drone gave them the most accurate and real time answer.

Although I live in an urban area, I had a similar experience with my CT/FSD and the map system. In my case, FSD attempted to use a private, gated driveway to get to my preferred parking spot in the back of my home. Using a desktop, I went to Google Maps, selected Edit Map, further selected Add...

I love FSD; I hate the “beta version” wiper that auto turns on, rain or shine (generally shine here in SoCal) at the same distance from my home during FSD. By the way who releases beta versions of sw where functions are auto-activated as default? I get that cameras are vital to FSD but until...

Now that I’ve owned a CT, I’ll never buy non-SBW!

WOW, impressive! That’s a little under 150 miles a day, every day for 18 months. Of course if they’re averaging 100mph, it’s just an hour and a half jaunt. Hope he chimes in.

I hadn’t thought of that; better step up my imagination! At this point I’m sure there is someone out there who has skinned their game with an air compressor plugged into the bed outlet. :unsure:

No, it’s not mine for sure. I’ve had mine since the end of January (‘25) and air travel has kept me from driving mine very much. Nevertheless I’m guessing that others beside me want to know what CT has the highest mileage out there. If you respond to this thread, please include the following...

Why make a smaller CT version for general sales? IMHO this seems even more niche than the current CT which in itself is the game changer. Furthermore, I’d say that in order to make a smaller truck, Tesla would have to go with traditional body panel materials to lighten the vehicle and enable...

On mine (‘24 FS AWD) the wiper self activates randomly but only during FSD, and of course on sunny clear days. Very annoying as I have to manually force it off. I notified Tesla who said that “auto wiper is beta version right now and required during FSD to ensure clear forward camera.” To me...

I don’t think you’re missing anything. Mine is a ‘24 Foundation Series AWD I bought at the end of January. VIN is 36XXX and I haven’t had any issues with it. Fitment of panels etc. is much improved over the early prod CTs. I paid more than folks today but that’s behind me. I don’t think you’ll...

I think you’ll really appreciate FSD on a long trip. In my case I drive through LA traffic to Santa Barbara monthly. Distance is ~120 miles of freeway with lots of pockets of congestion, occasional incidents or road repairs, freeway changes, HOV transitions, and a stretch of ocean and Channel...

In January I bought a FS AWD w FSD. The steer-by-wire is the #1 technology that sold me on the vehicle. In fact, driving this big, heavy vehicle with traditional steering linkages and all the other advancements would not have cut it. My wife loves it too and we thought of purchasing a Tesla car...
