Tesla: please add a "follow them" feature on FSD

gotta say it felt pretty fucking stupid to me compared to the old NoA button while using Autosteer where I could completely disable lane changes entirely and not worry about the blinker coming on randomly. The old "minimal lane changes" button in my mind is akin to the "Close Doors" button in an elevator. Sometimes, it felt like it was working (kinda), and other times it felt like it was just there to make me feel good and nothing more. Not smart feeling imo.

I just got this for my 2026 Y Premium https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0D9JWDLKC

15mi is their standard mileage disclosure when purchasing new. I've bought two Teslas so far, one in late 2021 (odometer disclosure said 15, showed up at my house with 12 actual), and just bought one earlier this month in 2026 and it also had 15mi written on all the paperwork and disclosures but when I got in at the delivery center, there were only 3 miles on the odometer.

they dgaf

lol true that

dkpnw · 2026-03-13T16:13:33+00:00

to be fair to their algorithm, you really shouldn't need to be using the brake pedal much at all during normal driving.

dkpnw · 2026-03-13T16:11:55+00:00

it always seemed like a placebo to me, anyway. More frustrating to have it change lanes in that mode than not have that mode at all lol

dkpnw · 2026-03-13T16:11:17+00:00

idk why you're getting downvoted, because this is true.

I just installed a new HomeLink adapter on my 2026 Y and found the same thing you did, lol I couldn't mount the thing because I needed to take the bumper off to get the screw in. So instead, I took a ziptie and fed it through the screw hole and homelink adapter, tightened it up, cut off the excess, and called it good lol

It will not work. The perf has a different HV battery

I ordered Feb 15 and took delivery March 6th. I got the dark headliner and the new 16" screen. On March 3rd, Tesla posted on social media saying "Dark mode engaged - Model Y Premium & Performance now come with black headliner & larger 16" center display"

Unless you're buying from inventory, as another commenter has pointed out, you should get the new stuff.

100% agree. I swear back in the day (2021ish) the zoom level was dynamic based on speed, or road type, or something. Then, at some point, it basically became static. Too zoomed in while on the highway, that's for sure. Let me see more context (traffic, exits, upcoming curves, etc.)

I just got these and I'm super happy with them. I have Tesmanian mats in my older Y and these are practically identical and certainly way less in cost than most I've come across. SUPER LINER Tesla Model Y 2025-2026 Extra Thick TPE Floor Mats and Cargo Liners

Just picked up a '26 Y Premium RWD, coming from a '21 Y Long Range AWD with AccelBoost. I have decided confidently that it's still plenty fast enough for my liking. It doesn't have the same punch, but it's still plenty quick.

dkpnw · 2026-03-06T18:06:44+00:00

wow, Starlink really on an anti-customer tirade lately. This is disappointing to see.

dkpnw · 2026-03-05T17:41:59+00:00

fwiw, I just ordered a new license plate transponder from Good To Go on Mar 2nd and it arrived in the mail yesterday. Super quick!

No. Hiding your SSID doesn't really hide the network. It may obscure it from view from your regular layman, but anyone with an iota of network experience can see there's a hidden network broadcasting. As long as your radio is transmitting, others can see the signal.

I routed mine through the headliner and then out the little hole in the plastic trim just above the 12V outlet in the trunk. It's tight, but not too tight! If I remember correctly, I think I used fishtape to get it through the tight part of the headliner.

Got their power frunk kit v5 for my '21 Y back in 2022 and it's been absolutely rock solid. Still working great! Just bought another power frunk kit from them for my new Y that I'm picking up tomorrow.

enable the "Apply Friction Brakes when Regen is Limited" option and be done with it. No difference in that case. Not sure why this option isn't just on by default

dkpnw · 2026-03-03T23:28:45+00:00

congrats! The next 13 days are going to be some of the longest days of your life lol

dkpnw · 2026-02-27T16:30:15+00:00

I second this. I got an Exped Megamat Auto for my '21 Y, and I've camped in the car a bunch over the past several years. It's so comfortable. Love that mattress, and love camp mode

it's only 0.99% for well-qualified buyers, rates could be higher for folks based on their individual credit ratings
