Another setback for the Cybertruck

[Merc_s55]

The only thing I dont like about the cybertruck is that mine is the only one I see.
Not having any problem with FSD I use it all the time. This morning the power went out right in the middle of our bible study. So I went home, turned off the incoming breaker and plugged in power from cybertruck. (I do have an interlock). It ran for a half hour until I observed power was restored. only lost 2 miles charge. It was just a test. my buddy up in Gary Indiana was shocked that it could drive it self autonomously. we need to spread these features around. See my thread on "Let's emphasize how strong and tough this stainless steel body is".

I've had mine since December. No complaints. Admin needs to recognize trolls and toss them. Glad to hear you're enjoying yours as much as I'm enjoying mine.

It's becoming pretty evident that Tesla really doesn't care nor places priority anymore on the Cybertruck. Had the sales matched the pre-orders, I feel like we would all be in a different boat; enjoying all the benefits that other models get.

Don’t know about that later rambling. But Ok I will bite…if Tesla would had kept to their original prices and sold a forth $120,000 Luxe version later they would have sold most pre orders the first year and let the greed come later.

COVID prices and inflation didn’t hurt the ones who could afford the up price.

I've been reporting the same lane issue at the same highway exit for 8 months. They've never fixed it. I'm convinced using the microphone to report an issue has zero effect.

The underlying map could be the culprit. Have you gone to maps.google.com to see if the road is mislabeled or lanes are identified wrong? Just a thought here.


and no, it shouldn't be expected that every person would be capable of making the change or that they should be expected to. But, you could.

I can pay attention and stop it from driving crazy but there is no way to stop the stupid wiper other than turning it off - which requires a dry wipe? Is there another way to disable it?

Step 1: Press button to enable FSD
Step 2: Say "Turn off the wiper"
Step 3: Relax

OK. So now we live in a world where it's considered "greedy" to not want to lose many billions of dollars simply because you unnecessarily sold a million trucks at far below your cost to produce?

It's kind of a strange intersection. Four lanes heading north. Left two are for turning onto the highway. Right two are for going straight. I usually turn left at the next street, so it needs to be in the 2nd from right lane, and then turn left immediately after the on ramp:

I can see where that would be difficult. I think you can assign turn lanes in Google Maps. The left 2 should be identified as turn lanes into the highway. The right two should be straight through and then the left one becomes a left turn lane, right? Or does it also go straight?

If you'd like me to give it a go with google maps, give me the two intersecting streets there and the nearest town and State. I'd assume it was Portage, MI based on the picture and the species of trees... Well, and the fact that you said you make this trip a lot and your info here says you are from Portage, MI... LOL.

The left 2 are turn lanes into the highway. The right two go straight through. The left one you can turn into a center turn lane to turn left on the next street. We get a lot of people in the right side highway turn lane going straight to turn at the next street. Lots of near accidents.

It's at the intersection of I-94 and Oakland Drive.

Did you REALLY expect to pay those prices 'estimates' from 2019 when they came out 5 years later? We didn't...

I am bummed about the range a little bit... Wish it got just 50 more miles per charge, but it's not like we can't go on any long trips...

But not much is priced the same as it was in 2019...

AND, I fully believe that they WOULD be cheaper if enough of the people that 'ordered' them actually did buy one... It's why the Model Y and 3 are so much cheaper now... Mass sales helps...

BUT we know the media took over and 'decided' for us like the usually do...

I STILL get people telling me "Yes but you can't even take it to the car wash or it might catch on fire!"... COME ON!! And that was from someone YESTERDAY at a festival nearby where the local EV Advocates group had our personal cars/trucks out for people to see...

Tried it tonight (a couple times) and it navigated correctly. Since the last update it seems to be working now.
