New feature request-creep mode

[Aarondiil]

Now that it’s spring time and I’m using my truck to haul my jet skis and trailers around, I would love to have a feature wear. We can open up the app and hit the button that would make the truck either creep forward or creep backward very slowly to help me align my truck onto my ball hitch properly.

I can usually get pretty close right on with the camera, but sometimes if you’re trying to attach a trailer on a hill or something, the truck move slightly when you put it in the park then you have to get in and out of the truck to try to move it a half an inch. A feature like this would improve my life greatly right now.

I love this “Creep Mode” option. I lower my truck then get under the ball on camera THEN just lift into place. Works about 90% of time.

The creep mode would allow us to do all this backing up / in out the door WITH the door open and unbuckled.

ELON, listen to Aaron please.

I enabled “creep mode” once, and now I can’t drive within 500 feet of a school

OMG this would be an amazing feature. Please someone get this idea to the brains at Tesla!

Great way to run yourself over. Tesla has had for many years features to prevent this. Butt belongs in seat, buckled, and door closed.

Haven't had any problem hitching up my raft trailer. All trucks do the little movement post park. One can use parking brake to minimise, but account for the movement. Not sure if one can do that the same way in a Cybertruck.

Either way. Only creeps use creep.

LOL.... You never disappoint, Gus.

I've always been able to shove my vehicle/trailer around by 1/2 inch or so to align the hitch. just rest about 50-100 pounds of the trailer onto the ball and shove until it drops a bit, then lower the trailer the remainder of the way.

You've never used dumb summon? All of Teslas have it.

As far as I know, any Tesla without ultrasonic proximity sensors does not have "dumb" summon. My '24 Y and CT certainly don't.

Cybertrucks don't have dumb summon.

I think dumb summon would be beneficial for the OPs case.

I love it. Pebble RV type hitch mounting but in reverse.

How about if we have some sort of "fine adjustment" mode, where the scroll-wheel will nudge the vehicle back and forth by a few inches for each click? ?

My John Deere tractor has buttons at the rear that allow me to raise or lower the 3-point hitch, and also allows me to move the tractor forward and back a few inches while standing behind the tractor to make attachments easy to connect.
