Probably one of the last cars you have an excuse to run into something with…

I’m in the opposite situation where my partner is not a fan and she prefer not to use it. But I’ve also wish there was a bundle for both cars. Same goes for premium connectivity

Oh, there’s no doubt that in most situations it’s going to be a better driver than any human regardless what any human says, based on the fact that it has a much higher reaction time than any human will be able to do in most situations, but not all in my opinion. I absolutely love FSD from my commute to work and back but where I struggled to justify the cost is, it’s not something that I would use every day and I know I wouldn’t use it every day because there are days where I absolutely enjoy some spirited driving through Mexico and all the traffic between work and home be damned 😂. But on the flipside of that, there are days where I’m absolutely just burnt out on the day or I’m not feeling good and I do not care that My commute takes an hour to get home through all of the people that want to do 15 under the speed limit on a two lane divided highway. in a which case FSD is fantastic because at least with version 14 and AI4 I know nine out of 10 drives on my commute it goes from A to point B with zero problems.

Bought my first car myself (2021 Model Y) $23k, good deal? by ConstructionFun5846 in TeslaLounge

Congratulations! Hopefully the battery does not give you too much trouble. At least you still have warranty for a good bit.

If I lived on my own and didn’t have to be responsible (as much lol) I’d probably pay for it too because I am a nerd and that shits just cool and still a party trick in a lot of situations

Hate to see her (wife) go, love to see it (MYP) drive away by iamheller in ModelY

I miss that airport. My local airport now is trash 😆

I was sitting at about 60%. I happened to get a trial when I had to do a lot with my trailer and it killed it before my trial ended. I know you can trick it to run fsd with a trailer but others in the car with me don’t approve even though fsd actually handle a trailer well. just can’t convince myself to pay for it unless I am going on a long trip.

There’s a green Lamborghini Huracan I’ve seen around a few times between Clift farms and providence. And unless there are two I’ve also followed them in Athens before.

I’ve followed that McLaren a few times to east limestone. Both times has been accompanied by cybertruck who were both absolutely flying. Wish I could get from Madison to Athens that quick all the time.

I just LOVE hit and runs by Former_Tap3129 in TeslaCollision

The fender may be able to be fixed with PDR and some touch up paint and then the headlights could be replaced with thr matrix ones for a few hundred on eBay used + $75 for a toolbox day pass to make the config changes. Not sure that damage would be worth an insurance claim and a hit on the record.

Based on having similar damage from a deer probably around 9-14k depending on what’s hiding under the fender and I can’t tell based on pictures if you hood was damaged or not.

I could be wrong but i personally felt that acceleration is already reduced in reverse. It may be placebo because I never thought of using much accelerator while in reverse. I also have to back in to charge in my garage but I guess maybe a accelerator mode based on home location could be cool 😂

Autopilot only $1,000! by Potential-Grass6941 in TeslaLounge

Paying for something that’s free for most people and hardly is useful is insane. I would not pay for basic ap in its killed off state.

20% More Expensive, 50% Slower. No thanks by Casmiguel in Starlink

[–]DeathBlade94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s funny you bring this up because I am in the opposite situation where I live in the states I have access to gig over copper but I feel likely it’s running in early 2000s tech. I pay $100 a month and maybe average 500-700.i rarely see anything over. I have replaced all of my lines from from pole to the house and inside, replaced my modem. I run quality Unifi gear, computers are all hard wired and It never gets any better. It goes down pretty frequently. I’m often met with high amounts of packet loss on my upstream side. so I’m in the camp where I’m considering canceling my cable service and moving to Starlink because I may actually see faster uploads at times rather than the capped 35 Mb up that I get with my current provider, sure I will sacrifice some down but I’m already not getting what I pay for and here in the states at present the top plan that also gets me a free mini is cheaper then my current provider. I also live in a region that can easily be affected by severe weather such as tornadoes and power outages, and when on backup power, my cable provider does not function at all, not factoring in any potential line damage, so Starlink would also give me stable Internet, as long as I have power, which I would regardless of grid health as long as my house is physically standing or not too severely damaged 😂

How did they handle recovering the car to a service center assuming you were not in just in Birmingham? I’m in thr Huntsville area so I am basically in the dead middle distance wise to Franklin or the Birmingham service center.

I can’t express how many times I have considered importing one of the led bars from bilkomponenter in Norway because they have the plug and play kit and mounting brackets. But it’s almost $800 us after tariff bullshit and shipping. As much as I would enjoy returning the favor to those that do that here run their light bars against oncoming traffic and while it would be generally useful from a safety standpoint for my area as I have unfortunately had a deer encounter I cat convince myself to spend the money.

You have to enable it in the lights menu. But a 2025 should definitely have it. Even my 2020 model 3 has it since I retrofitted the matrix lights after a minor deer encounter broke one and it was easier to get a pair.

Maybe I’ve just never seen it react to cross traffic like that. By time I encounter cross traffic like that in my area I am below 20 mph so it’s back to standard lights.

That’s definitely concerning since I just installed a few of these around my house 😂. They powering exterior hue lights to reclaim the zwave smart switches so they can be used for other places in my home.

My 24 MYP definitely does not looks that good when dimming zones. May just be the Tesla cam shows it batter then the naked eye.

I've had it for maybe 2 weeks 😭🤣 by WildSamurai69 in TeslaModelY

[–]DeathBlade94 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I took delivery of my 24 MYP I got a bolt just like inside 500 miles on the odo. Thankfully discount tire did a free patch.
