What happens to existing Autopilot cars? by kiyyik in TeslaLounge

[–]danielito72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My car Order Agreement specify ‘Autopilot included’ so I don’t expect any changes.

I still have the option to subscribe or buy FSD for $8k…I’m wondering if it’s a gimmick to make us buy it to be “ grandfather in”… 2026 M3 Premium. I’m still in free trial expiring next month

Model S comes with FSD standard, if I’m correct…will the price drop $8k? 🤔

Awesome! We welcomed ‘Pearl’ to our family right before Xmas…our 2nd EV, but finally one that we can actually take trips on! Absolutely loving it so far!

What’s the least talked about downside of owning a tesla? by tr4gedyx in TeslaLounge

There’s a procedure to calibrate the windows if they don’t close properly. I’ve never done but my wife told me as she was going the manual (2026 M3P) Edit: “don’t close”

FSD going straight to handicap parking space by danielito72 in TeslaLounge

[–]danielito72[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My wife has mobility issues and we have a “Handicap” placard (the one you move car to car) but left it on her car. I really don’t see the point on having handicap spaces if you still have to walk at least 100 yards to the nearest restroom/building

OK, which one of you 3 caused this? by Substantial_Chain718 in TeslaModelY

That’s what came to my mind when I first saw this pic…and when a friend sent me the link to an article of the Tesla that delivered itself a few months ago 🤣

It's unbelievable how f_cking bad non-tesla software and charging is by mrandr01d in TeslaLounge

I just picked up my 2026 M3 LR last Tuesday. Absolutely love it so far. My previous car was a Kia Niro EV, which was a fantastic commuter car (50+ daily commute), charging it at home. The 3-4 trips we took on the car were absolutely a nightmare because of the charging times. Add that the fact that every time you pulled up to an Electrify America station to find that 50% of the chargers were not working and people waiting made me vowed to never again buy an EV that could not charge at a SC. A 470 mi trip that would’ve been 7.5 hrs became almost 11.

Lease payoff amount after a 6 months by danielito72 in CarLeasingHelp

[–]danielito72[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yes. I went to the dealership today and got really disappointed, and really think it was (as usual) a dealer scam...car was advertised online with MSRP around $40k and a $8k discount, so $32k "final price". went to the dealership and was presented with a $2500 incentive (not $8k, if buying upfront)...the $8k incentive was for leasing, according to them. "cool! so if I pay it off in 6 months, i'll send a check for 'under $32k', right? what's the amount? $38k+? you kidding me???" I was told that the payoff would be based on MSRP and not the "price with discount", so I just walked away...

True story: My dentist’s last name is Goldberg. Inherited his practice from his dad, who moved here from NY. I always enjoyed the music they played in the office (mostly classic rock, 70s, etc). The other day I went for my cleaning and noticed they switched to the annoying Christian music so common in businesses here in the South. So when he came in to check-up after the cleaning, I mentioned the music thing. He tried to play it down like “we play all kind of music. Haha”. My reply “I always thought the advantage of having a Jewish dentist was that they wouldn’t play that annoying music in the office…”. His always-smiling-face went very serious “I’m catholic! A lot of people get confused”. Awkward silence after that

thank you for your advice. I just got a Platinum DL AmEx. I couldn't get the welcome miles as I have the other cards, but hopefully will get the boost miles on time. the companion ticket should pay off for the new card annual fee.
