This sounds great and shows the advantages of an EV for this role. That said- that drop of 2k feet over several miles must have been a fantastic test of heat management since regeneration isn’t ‘perfect’ . I guess the sane should be said about the climb on the other side. Well done. Imagine how...

Insert a ‘DOOOMED!’ GIF here. Model Ys rock, this is as it should be.

You can ignore a poster :)

I wonder if the YL will replace both the S and X?

Can’t wait for the cherry picking headlines that suggest otherwise. Stock is down 3%, I guess we wanted 700%?

This will turn into a contest if we’re not careful. My memory is the first guy off a cliff in a Y was trying to KILL everyone. Tesla says no.

Would love one of these for my S :) . I bought the voice activated / electric motor one from Hansshow (?sp) for my Y back when I had it and loved it. Thing is- any shade has to be a tight fit and not rattle.

I can see the need for this but also lament the loss of simplicity. Probably should figure this out before we need to retrieve files.

It’s almost like where in shipping they talk about that last mile to deliver to a house being the hardest part to solve. The driving / nav is pretty well solved right up to the ‘last mile’ of local stuff. That’s the .99999 .

I agree, he’s got a good POV with FSD. Also like Dirty Tesla, Chuck Cook, Ananto, and I think I’m missing one other.FWIW- I had 14.3.3 just give up yesterday at a very uninteresting part of my commute. Red steering wheel and hazards came on. I took over and immediately re-engaged and FSD started...

That RTL is a good listen. L&F are a team capable of amazing things! The real question (I think) about the future S & X, or S & X replacements with different names, is- Will these vehicles be manually drivable? Right now I'd say NO. At that point maybe the old car design doesn't make sense. So a...

IIRC there were even more benefits beyond cost, wasn’t safety and charging speed better? Maybe I’m hoping. Regardless, I look forward to seeing the 4680 finally live up to the potential we were given years ago.

Oh wow, can’t believe I didn’t notice that. Good catch, lowering the time would = higher performance. What Tesla actually did was CORRECT the time. Twice. :P . Still not sure why Tesla is bringing the ‘premium’ RWD 3 in with a less-than-premium battery pack when they prolly could have brought...

For those interested- RTL had Lars and Franz on again, this time interviewed in a last of its kind model X :) . The stories are always interesting. From pumping out another 50% power on the original S (or was that roadster?) right up to the last minute- adding some noise / vibration/ harshness...

This just shows you how far we have come. I tried telling Grok to part in specific parts of parking lots with mixed success and last I remember the reply was that Grok can't do that yet. Which shows me SOME awareness that this is something in the works. That said- you can tap on a big lot...

As long as it is learning the GOOD human Habits! Even better- I’ve seen behavior where the car will switch to the left lane when a car is parked on the right shoulder close to the lane. When there’s a car parked off to the right but further off the road (with plenty of room for someone to pop...

My partner pointed out that those estimates are prolly a result of how the car was driven too, so a new owner could do better with a lighter foot or by letting the car drive itself :) . That said- WHERE it lives prolly enters into the whole equation as well. I suppose better information would...

Jeez. Way to F up a good opportunity. I guess one GOOD thing here is the LFP battery, assuming it is healthy / appropriate to charge to 100% often. I remember when my ‘86 Mustang GT was fast 0-60 at 6 seconds :) . That’s prolly still plenty fast enough for an economy car.

This may have been going on for a while, I haven’t looked at the pre-owned Teslas after getting my S last year. That said- I was curious today as to which cars have FSD included, and what the most recent model year cars are available as pre-owned. So I pulled up the Tesla site, pre-owned cars...

Aptera has a shot at unseating the CC. I asked Grok and the response was that their vehicle will / is? closer to 100 Wh/mile. Of course someone has to drive it. Also of course - right now someone has to drive the CC as well. Fun times.
