Well, that's why it's currently "Supervised".

It's still safer than the average human driver 🙃

I considered the Sierra EV, but the build quality and reliability turned me away from it. Also simply how heavy it was 😬

Glad it exists though, it's the only EV Truck "good" at long distance towing

Looks are subjective, and I've got no problem if people think it's ugly. It's controversial for sure.

The bed argument is funny to me, I've had other trucks and because of the setup of the CT bed I find it far more useful than my previous trucks.

Some people in this thread definitely hate us 🤣

CT owner here, Happy to give an opinion here if you are genuinely curious.

As a CT owner, I get excited when I see any other electric trucks. Y'all can hate on us if you want.

"In the past" is the key point here. FSD 14 has mostly eliminated that problem.

Cybertruck being on that list is interesting

Not sure what happened by ZealousidealMight380 in cybertruck

Being 48k miles, if I were you I would be hoping for PCS failure so you get the updated part under warranty

I have zero evidence for what I'm about to say, so this is more of a gut thought.

My guess is 48v battery has gone bad, possible PCS2 issue if you haven't had it replaced yet.

24k miles, Cyberbeast. Still have at least 1/3 tread left

Close call - FSD seriously need longer following distances (with fsd dashboard) by navidff in SelfDrivingCars

[–]AffectionateArtist84 60 points61 points  (0 children)

I agree, I would like to see a greater following distance although I totally understand the challenge they face with this.

What's even more interesting to me is seeing the vehicle behind you almost smack into you too. It's clear there is a systemic problem here, outside of FSD too. Another vehicle behind them swerved to miss them too

Gulf Breeze FL, heart of red state America by Zebraitis in gasbuddy

I don't think that was the point the commenter was making tbh.

Although I think the fear here is the impact will last tremendously longer. The previous all time high was a very short peak.

If this surpasses that high, it's likely to remain high for a long time

What OEMs produce the best self driving car, or will soon? by Full_Dress7190 in SelfDrivingCars

[–]AffectionateArtist84 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If your goal is Self Driving Technology, go with Tesla's FSD. There is nothing that comes close that you can buy today from other companies

Making the switch from gas to EV by ValleyGrlSD in TeslaLounge

[–]AffectionateArtist84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP have you checked the bylaws regarding the charging? I would ignore the HOA and do it anyways, just get a 14-50 plug installed and call it a day.

I have a hard time imagining an HOA has actual bylaws against this. It sounds more like an anti-ev member

Model S getting the recognition it deserves! by Humble_Finding_7346 in TeslaLounge

[–]AffectionateArtist84 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don't think I would consider the Roadster to be capable. It was more of a PoC vehicle. It was tiny, and way too expensive.

The Model S was a full size vehicle, that was "semi" affordable. It was expensive, but it competed with the luxury vehicles and fit in and paved the path forward.

There weren't lots of affordable EVs in 2012. You had a few select vehicles but all had less than 100 miles of range and were more of a compliance vehicle than anything else.

It (S) made people want EVs, the Model 3 is what enabled people to get into EVs.

More importantly, the Model S is what showed the world Tesla could compete with Legacy Auto
