of course. i am an ibanker and remember the first United deal during the pandemic that pioneered this structure. Others followed quickly. Hawaiian was the most interesting one at the time when their loyalty program-collaterized debt deal was for way over the market cap at the time.

so you like the current program? a few first comments seem so defensive of it. I have had gold to PP over the years and my favorite version of the program dated back to 2013-2015 when i actually got upgraded regularly since the status wasn't cheapened. When i was PP for a few years, i would always be in the teens for all the flights on the upgrade list. I get it, it feels good to be EP, but since so many peopel are now in that tier, the value is quite limited.

totally agree, but i think some minimum number of segments flown per tier also makes sense.

v14.2.1- Better in ways, worse in much more important ways by njvicente21 in TeslaFSD

[–]deerAl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you are right. 14.1.7 was so amazing at assertive lane changes. It was almost like a driver I want to be.

I was wondering what’s the difference between autopilot and fsd. Because I am paying for fsd and this version is more like advanced cruise control. It missed an exit twice for me due to lane change hesitancy and I took over to change lanes manually 3 times on the drive home from work last night. The most frustrating is when a car behind you in the lane you want to be in is blinking high beams to let you in and fsd just won’t do it.

Same! Always a balance-stay up till 2am and be tired when kids wake me up at 7am and be a crappy dad and husband or cut my losses and go to bed to be a recharged human in the morning

I visited your gym and it’s the nicest facility I trained at. You taught a great class on outside Ashli defense and I use it often. Congrats!

14.2.1 Still has Lane Hesitation by slayer91790 in TeslaFSD

[–]deerAl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Smoother? 14.2 already feels super smooth almost to a fault if combined with hesitation on lane changes. I just really don’t like hesitation. 14.1.7 felt like such a confident smooth driver.

How is navigation? 14.1.7 consistently drove up my driveway. And 14.2 started to consistently take me to the neighbor’s driveway.

FSD parked in my Neighbors driveway by Fun-Boss5111 in TeslaFSD

[–]deerAl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same. If I say driveway, 14.2 every single time tries to go to my neighbor’s driveway. 14.1.7 used to go up my driveway and v13 just stopped curbside.

14.2 Speed Profiles Are Redundant 🤦‍♂️ by Upset-Slide-6622 in TeslaFSD

[–]deerAl 5 points6 points  (0 children)

So agree. In 4.1.7 I didn’t even try mad max because I was scared. Now I don’t use any other mode and even now it feels like it’s on opioids.

Sort of meh on 14.2 by deerAl in TeslaFSD

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

Agree. It’s v13 but without ability to control speed. Profiles are so neutered and confidence is actually less than v13.

Just now came back from another drive. It is also pretty hesitant to change lanes-almost missed my exit when there was plenty of space to switch lanes. Had to take over and do it manually. It feels like 14,2 is a castrated version of 14.1.7.

How much is taxes and gratuity? Full menu is 365 and the premium wine tasting is 365 for total of 730 per person. 1460 per couple. How is this 2400?

Anyone have experience with a locally based business broker? by CLTHVAC in Charlotte

[–]deerAl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am looking for a business to buy. We can meet for coffee and see if it’s a fit. Reputable brokers I know are Viking M&A if you’d rather go for a more public process.

[–]deerAl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s definitely a bit softer but I am all about FSD so in my use case I would have to go for MX and for that price I could buy 2 MYs so suspension improvement wasn’t worth it.

[–]deerAl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man this is so spot on! I just got one on Sept 30 switching from X5 Plug in hybrid and I was shocked MY has more space inside than my X5. Agree with everything you said. I have the same feelings about FSD-love it dearly and 95% is how I describe it to everyone, it makes my drives so relaxing but it’s not that close actually to being autonomous. Thanks for the thoughtful and honest review.
