I suspect the added option cost will be in the $5-10K range. In all-day direct sun, you might get an average of 2-3 miles of additional range per day. If 80% of the days offer sun, and 80% of the time you park outside all day, oriented towards the sun, that means each year you get 3 * 365 * .8...

I could be wrong but I thought the credit card companies required refunds (for any company) to go back to the original credit card. It is interesting that those with expired cards still get the refund - which makes me suspect that is still the case. I wonder if the few owners with problems...

Good to know! Thanks.

Ok, a few minunderstandings. If the Pryo fuse blows, the 16v battery is still connected and powers the doors and windows. So the low voltage electricity is not cut off, only the HV. All four doors have interior mechanical door releases, should all power be lost. You might want to consult the...

My understanding is you need full FSD to get the free camera upgrade. I got the free camera upgrade in my 2016 S, but I had bought FSD too.

It is amazing that a small group of haters spend so much time dissing the Cybertruck. It makes me wonder who is paying them!

Any thoughts as to the reasons for the two forks? I'm on the 2024.3.x fork (2022 - FSD, MCUZ, HW3). One guess is 2024.14.x is for HW4?

I've never seen the distortion myself on my cars, friends, or loaners and I think I'm fairly observant. Ok, one idea, could it be a side effect of owners using polarized glasses or glasses with special coatings? I do wear glasses, but not polarized. Polarized lenses seem to magnify slight...

While it may have changed, FSD in the past has used far less camera resolution for the neural network - perhaps in the order of 1/8 what you see in the captured video, as higher resolution wasn't needed (and the hardware couldn't handle it). In the past, it also uses software controlled areas...

Many MCU2 cars (all?) don't have the cabin camera either. My guess is those without the cabin camera will always have to use the steering nag. Looks like FSD 12.6 will get rid of the nag, if you have the cabin camera.

No. At least not unless the owner pays for the MCU2 upgrade. It's not needed, but MCU2 does provide a better FSD presentation. Otherwise functionally, FSD works with MCU1.

I'll get some heat from the haters, but it is a cool design. I'm not sure why a few people require a truck that looks like every other truck. I gather some people just can't accept anything new or exciting. They will continue to buy boring generic antique-styled vehicles. Luckily for them, a...

Strange, my old yoke thumb wheels were never hot, not even with steering wheel heat on. Same as the new. Not sure what could cause that.

My 2022 S has a separate temperature control for the rear and mine is set at different temperature than the front. I suspect all Teslas with a rear screen have it. When you tap on the front screen temp up or down, there is a "Split" option (to lock left/right). It didn't appear to lock the...

Isn't this normal? My S rear screen goes off when the car is off. Do you mean it stays on when the car is off and locked? Is this when the slots are empty? If so, that sounds wrong. If it is when your phone is charging, it might be your phone that is getting hot and transferring heat to the...
