    MASTER THREAD: 2019.40.50.x - Driving Visualization improvements, new voice commands, Camping Mode

    Installing now. I understand these updates are tweaks to the Christmas Gift upgrade. I just wish they could tell us what the tweaks are. If anyone notices changes please let us know. Tx!

    Wow

    I wasn't excited when I first saw it. Tesla stock dropped $20 today. It's too big of a change. But the more I learn, and the more I see it, I really like it. The folded rocketship stainless steel body is actually quite a brilliant idea. The roll up bed cover is very functional. Price point...

    Poll: Is FSD a complete crock?

    Yes, there are many companies making great progress on expensive robotaxis in select environments including Cruise. How many ride hails get rejected because it requires an unallowed route? Most of these companies including GM's Cruise have no concrete plans to release in consumer cars. You...

    Poll: Is FSD a complete crock?

    Waymo is not a product for public cars. It is extremely expensive and only for Taxis. GM works only on designated limited access highways. It does not change lanes. AP is better than that. I love the fact that I can use AP on any road with lines. I'm very happy Tesla doesn't use eye...

    Poll: Is FSD a complete crock?

    What did you think you were getting? I did my research and asked around and am extremely happy with FSD. It is as I expected. A futuristic product light-years ahead of the competition. You should sell your car if you are not happy with it. Do your research next time.

    Nice job! I am seriously jealous. Did you have to buy two Tesla's for the second one? I look forward to owning zero ICE vehicles one day.

    Blog Tesla’s Full Self Driving Option to Receive $1,000 Price Increase

    Ok, I see your points. Although I look forward to L5 self driving, I agree it will be extremely difficult to achieve 100% . Even Waymo is currently using it but only in pristine selected areas with a remote backup driver for problems. Construction areas are extremely difficult. And what...

    I got the same one but decided to leave it pristine in package since I have many of these for eyeglasses

    Blog Tesla’s Full Self Driving Option to Receive $1,000 Price Increase

    I thought the same thing until I read an article on the new approach Tesla is using to teaching neural nets on FSD. Basically large amounts of data are used with human examples of driving in various situations. Apparently Billions of miles of data are sorted to get enough examples of rare...

    Boring Company

    Just watched recent Elon presentation on Boring Company. I'm actually most interested in use for cars which wasn't discussed much. I like the concept of self driving cars navigating between white lines. Top speeds would probably be less than 100mph? Adding a tail wind artificially would of...

    Blog Tesla’s Full Self Driving Option to Receive $1,000 Price Increase

    Purchased a Model X with FSD two months ago. Excellent investment!! Highly recommended. Looking forward to city driving whenever Tesla engineers deem it ready. Awesome job delivering the highest technology in the industry!! Tx. I use FSD all the time and feel safer than when I used to drive...

    Tesla Cleaning Products

    The manual says not to use any liquid on the screen. I didn't think this would work very well, but just an eyeglass cloth works great. Just water and microfiber cloth on seats and dash have been all I've needed so far.

    Predictions - "Automatic driving on city streets."

    I already use AP on almost all roads with a yellow line. I did have trouble with a few intersections in the past but I continue to see improvements in just the last month and rarely take over even in curved intersections. Love it! AP and NoA are driver assist devices. Even as they rapidly...

    TeslaFi - Sleep Pattern

    I'm not sure if mine didn't always do the same thing. Was trying a lot of apps last month and rarely slept. About two weeks ago I reset my password and only use TeslaFi now. Sleeps one hour regular naps now then wakes for about 30 minutes. Most of the awake intervals have no vampire drain so...

    I've never needed more than just water on my white seats. They clean up so easily so far.
