    Cybertruck in Accident in Olathe, KS

    My guess on the comment is cabin intrusion and the safety of passengers. Cars can be replaced.

    Rebooting does not work

    Unless you are on a legacy S/X I don't think the tabs above the wheels do anything. they use to reboot the drivers display computer on MCU1 cars where the drivers display was a separate display and computer. I don't know what turning the car off means. Are you talking about Power Off...

    Rebooting does not work

    Note clear what you mean by reboot, hard reboot, turn the "car off" -- many use those terms loosely. There is a Power Off menu option (2 minute wait without touching anything) See: Wiki - Model X Reset Techniques

    FSD v12.x (end to end AI)

    As well v12 is often not staying centered in lanes and touches or even goes over neighboring lane lines. My spouse is pretty tolerant of my FSD testing but geez when it is near the lane line (right) and there is a car in the right lane she questioned what the he11 FSD was doing.

    no one knows that ... where would the data come from? Realize that there are two distinct v12 FSD forks. 2024.14.x & 2024.3.x and a v11 FSD fork 2024.8 See: TeslaFi.com Firmware Tracker I have the MCU2 upgrade it is worth every penny. Here are my updates. See 'Days since...'

    Another distinction is that vehicles without the cabin camera only get 3 warnings before the ~1 week "timeout" vs 5 warnings.

    Acceleration Shudder Question

    I take a lot of road trip and I used Range Mode on those highway drives. I can't imagine it stresses the front halfshalves tho cruising down the highway. I have Scan-My-Tesla hooked up so I can see that it is using the front motors when cruising. ______________________________________________...

    Acceleration Shudder Question

    Not sure if I've read that before or perhaps just forgot. Range mode, I think, just emphasis front motors while cruising down a highway. Not a lot of stress on the front shafts there I wouldn't think.

    Is it really super dangerous to go over the 120pound weight limit of the stock tow hitch? I’m about 30-50 pounds over.

    Re: " It’s one strap looped around the central roof pillar." There is not "one center pillar" so I was confused. :rolleyes:

    Tesla model Y? Where is there a 'central roof pillar' in the middle? Sorry, I'm missing something.

    FWD still have issues in the sun?

    Had this happen to our 2017 the other day. The FWD just went up part way thinking there was an obstacle. I could override it of course. Once it cooled down it worked as expected.

    Aside: we carry our e-bikes exactly as you do (without batteries and heavier one closest to the car). [I never considered the strap but I bought some recently for a move. I may try them "down the road.")

    Trucks have been evolving for decades LONG before Tesla. Now most are like SUVs with a short pickup bed.

    Nice effort. That reminds me of an enhancement I'd love to see to the terrific app/site ... add the date of the last (or initial) visit to the repeat (in format YYYY-MM-DD).

    Tesla trips site has weird direction but only if you own MX. This won't happen from in-car navigation, right?

    Which model X you have will make a difference in your planning. Guessing you are getting a new 2024 (or a used inventory or service vehicle). The ABetterRoutePlanner (ABRP) planner is more what you want to do a simulation with. Google search it.

    My FSD (12.3.4 '17 TMX) works OK but awful in the rain (limit speeds in light rain) and does not handle narrow mountain roads very good at all as far as lane centering. These types of roads have "rumble strip" under the center/yellow and side/white line. My FSD would make noise on both of them...

    Hey @ChrisC (!) --- I see what you mean about Rivian and there current state. The only adapter I've seen that seems to have gotten great reviews by a few tech people I respect were the A2Z ones. Aside: I'm currently on a roadtrip and did a segway tour in Atlanta GA and had a great time.

    Did either of you go into the 'service' menu and do the reinstall OTA option. I've done it once successfully after a failure. The software is already on your 'harddisk' partitions so it just reinstalls what is there.
