    Took a test drive - Need to better understand Blind Spot warning

    Well I did pay for FSD and I don’t have a beta version but it works as I described for me

    Took a test drive - Need to better understand Blind Spot warning

    Yes, signal and then look. If you use autopilot you signal and it looks and it goes when it’s safe. It sounds dangerous but I like that I can now look around without worrying about the car in front of me slamming in the brakes.

    Model Y, no blind spot warning?

    I’m worried about hitting the car in front of me when I check my blind spot, not the car in the next lane. I find the center display works great and if the vehicle is red and your signal is on it beeps at you. Makes me happy. And if you’re using autopilot it won’t turn into that lane (and I use...

    Model Y, no blind spot warning?

    I have no idea what you are talking about. Our Model Y has amazing blind spot warnings.

    New Y SR owner 32amp vr 48amp home charging question

    Two things — supercharger charging is totally different, it’s true DC charging and bypasses the car’s internal charger. There’s a reason they call it supercharging. Home charging is done by connecting an AC power source — hence the official name of Wall Connector (and not charger) — and then...

    Disaster Averted!!

    I am convinced that if you always physically turn your head to check your blind spot in LA traffic then you will eventually rear-end a car that slammed on its brakes when your head was turned. And those that say to give more distance from the car in front of you haven't driven in such conditions...

    Disaster Averted!!

    Seriously? Just what he needs now. I guess he could have slammed on his brakes prior to checking his blind spot. Or perhaps stayed in the slow lane the entire trip with his flashers on. Comments like yours discourage the next guy from posting something that we might learn from.

    Just let the other cars provide the crumple zone.

    Will The Revolutionary Tesla Windshield Wiper Debut On The Cybertruck?

    Since you mentioned flight -- and I'm the first to admit that it's an apples and oranges comparison -- it was just a couple of years ago when many people "in the know" were stating with authority that NASA would NEVER approve Space-X's plan to fuel the Falcon 9 just prior to lift off with...

    Cybertruck With FSD

    It’s not people having angst about ordering FSD, it’s people trying to rationalize their decision not to have done so a year ago ;) You know, like a couple generations ago, “real truck drivers wouldn’t want an automatic transmission in a truck.” Or a generation ago, “cruise control? It’s a work...

    Anyone Plan On Making The Cybertruck Their First Tesla?

    Well the CT was my first EV reservation but in the meantime I got my wife a Model Y and have ordered Tesla Solar including four power walls and I self installed two Tesla wall connectors already. #drankthekoolaid

    3D Maxpider Model Y Floor Mats

    So I mistakenly ordered two sets. One arrived two days ago, with the exact same crease in the middle and the second set arrived today -- folded the exact same way but no crease. I think the difference is this set had the other mats inside the fold so it wasn't as hard of a bend.

    Maximum charge level for daily use

    I sometimes have the sun in my eyes and it seems to move up or down while I drive. Is it better to put the sun visor down all the way or just partially, as required? I find that sometimes I can just move the seat up all the way but I’m tall and then I can’t see as far forward. I’m working on a...

    Is this really true ?!

    Seriously, that concept looks like an ugly running shoe. I’ll take the CT as is over anything else that I’ve seen.

    Delivery Today with 8 Paint Issues

    After closer inspection in sunlight I found three very minor issues. 1. The trim below the front seat passenger window seemed to have a few quarter-sized air bubbles under the leatherette. Like it wasn’t quite adhered. Almost flush but not quite. 2. the driver’s side floor carpet piece that goes...

    Tesla Delivery Timeline

    Last that I heard, my wife's MY was supposed to leave Scottsdale tomorrow (Tuesday) for delivery to us in NM on Thursday. Tonight I got a call from a Spokane number and I almost didn't answer. But I did and it was the driver saying he was around the corner. We took a good look at it and it is...

    Just got the text to schedule delivery...!

    I am taking delivery on Thursday and have a Friday appointment to get the XPEL wrap. I'm not wrapping it because of poor paint quality, I am wrapping it to protect my investment. I don't want to see small dings and road rash and have my wife asking me whether it can be taken to the body shop, I...

    Dashcam Memory Card

    So how was the car upon delivery? You happy?

    Dashcam Memory Card

    If the card is bigger than 32gB then you need a 3rd party app to format to FAT32. Here's a good YouTube link that shows you how: YouTube

    Is there a ‘max ac’ setting?

    Max AC mode in normal cars runs the A/C compressor continuously and selects recirculation mode. By using recirculated air it is both already cooled and dehumidified. This makes a big difference in areas of high temperatures and humidity. In the Model Y the compressor does what it thinks it needs...

    Any SSD capacity limitations?

    My guess is you have a drive greater than 32GB that requires a 3rd party app to format to FAT32. Look at my post up the chain a bit.

    Any SSD capacity limitations?

    Well, my Owner's Manual p. 144 says. "Model Y requires the USB flash drive to be formatted as FAT 32 (for Windows), MS-DOS FAT (for Mac), ext3, or ext4. NTFS and exFAT are not currently supported."

    Delivery Today with 8 Paint Issues

    I didn't mean to imply that they were being OCD by reporting the flaws. I meant that a lot of folks, such as myself, are OCD when it comes to surfing this forum multiple times a day because we are impatiently awaiting our car and it somehow makes us feel more "in touch" with our car or something...

    Any SSD capacity limitations?

    I bought the Samsung 65gb that was one of the two recommended in the owner's manual but had to use a free 3rd party app to format it in the required FAT32. Here's a good YouTube link that shows you how: YouTube

    Delivery Today with 8 Paint Issues

    I figure this forum is a lot like surveys and critiques in general -- I rarely fill one out and if I do it's because I didn't like the experience. My guess is you have a lot higher percentage of posters on this forum than are dissatisfied than those that had a great experience and are enjoying...

    Please pay off your remaining balance prior to delivery?

    I don't know what you have to do but that's what I did. I was told my car was completed on May 18th and I immediately paid the balance in full and got an insurance policy. Today I finally got a delivery date of June 4th. I figure I can worry about saving some bucks but in the big scheme of...

    That's probably not true. I was able to simply provide insurance information for my current non-Tesla car to get past that phase. My MY is enroute as we speak.

    Got called today and my MY which rolled off the factory 5/16 is still in Cali awaiting transportation. “Should be on the way be the end of the week.” Hopefully, it will be pristine.

    Model Y, no blind spot warning?

    I've done a lot of SoCal LA driving and feel that checking my blind spot is a catch-22 situation. If I don't check it I will likely hit somebody in that blindspot within a week of driving. But if I do check it then I will probably rear end somebody within the next year because they slammed on...

    Finally Canceled

    I replaced the windshield on my FJ Cruiser a couple of years ago and the custom painted long panel that goes above it needed replacing too. I purchased a new one off of eBay and it came with some minor scratches that really bothered me. But I installed it and have never noticed it since. There...

    AZ Deliveries Scheduled?

    Well my MSM LR AWD, black interior, 19" wheels, with FSD is supposed to be going to dealer prep in Scottsdale within the next few days for delivery to me in NM so I would assume others are going to AZ too. Ordered 5/16/2020
