I don't know if it's the FSD update, or just the normal morons that buy Teslas that can't figure out driving laws or charger reservations, nor do I care.

I completely understand driving to conditions, that there are perfectly reasonable and legal reasons to drive above or below the posted speed limit but giving people a default "I would like to always drive above the posted speed limit" seems like obviously this company is developing this technology in a completely irresponsible way.

Do you even drive IRL? I can comfortably say there are *zero* situations when i would be enabling TACC (cruise) and *not* doing 5 or 10km/h over where i can, such are the lovely speed limits and the habits of other drivers around me In fact if i was on a typical freeway and enabled cruise only to have the car suddenly decelerate to get back to the posted speed limit, THAT would be more hazardous than anything else

Also, if it was FSD, shouldn’t one of its most core abilities be to decide on it’s own if it is driving at a safe and prudent speed?

My Ioniq 6 gives a slight speed alert (just gives the speed limit display red text) whenever I'm one MPH over what it thinks is the limit. It often thinks freeways are 50MPH and don't you dare go 25 past a school zone on Easter Sunday!

Hilariously this seems to result in a lot of the fsd shills online setting their speed offset to like +15mph just to get it to drive at the speed limit, though that often makes it drive over the speed limit at times as well.

El Grillo posted:In the latest updates it does, per a bunch of feedback posts I've seen on v12 and 12.3.3. Apparently it was very bad in 12.0, somewhat fixed now but not in many situations. I used v12.3 a bit the other weekend, mostly interstate and midwestern rural roads (ie very straight, minimal intersections). And found it a fair bit of an improvement over the previous version. It now moves to the left of the lane while passing trucks with trailers, or while passing other vehicles that were close to the line. It did seem occasionally to be averse to returning to the set speed which *gasp* I did set to be above posted speed limits, and I did manually make it accelerate once. The biggest issue (and an understandable one) was when we came up behind a bit of farm equipment, there was a.. disc plow(??) being towed by a pickup, and it had an orange warning triangle on the back. The car slowed down and stayed like 100 yards back from it, so I disengaged and passed it myself, otherwise no real issues. I haven't tried out v12.3.3 which got pushed to me a couple days ago.

I won't be using FSD again until there's some way to have plain old cruise control. For some damned reason (probably an effort to force people to experience how great it is), enabling the *ability* to engage FSD disables the *ability* to engage cruise control. It used to be that when you grabbed the steering wheel and took over, it would fall back to cruise. No more: now it disengages everything. I really hope I can do both again come April. I actually preferred FSD to AutoPilot on the highway. But I also want to be able to steer the car and have it maintain speed like I can in the 2017 Nissan LEAF I just bought from my dad for like $186.

I've seen quite a few people complaining about 12.3.3 showing regressions from 12.3/12.3.2.1 so you may or may not want to hold off on updating for a while.

I'm also mad about this, and the inability to just tell the drat car to stop executing lane changes all the loving time. Something about this FSD stack is allergic to just chilling in the right lane even if I'm only using the highway for a mile. There's a limited lane change option but for some idiotic reason it's only available for the current drive and you have to toggle it on every single time.

Hi thread. I saw somewhere that said that Tesla had a bad quarter and are slashing prices on some models. For shits and giggles I built up a Model Y Long Range on their website and it does seem that a dealer an hour away slashed $5200 off the model I put together as "price adjustment?"  I've been randomly building 3's and Y's a couple times a year when I'm bored to check the pricing and never liked how expensive they were. Now with that $5200 off the Y, and combined with the $7500 tax credit, I think I might be more comfortable with paying the current prices. This would be replacing a 2016 Subaru WRX ($10-15k KBB value), and our other car is a 2018 Abrams Suburban (we have 5 kids). The WRX has 2 kid car seats in the back, so I can essentially ever only drive 1 other family member without the annoyance of taking them out and putting them back in constantly, hence the 7-seat option in the screenshots above. And yeah, I know cramming 7 in the Y is like a clown car, especially with 2 car seats (if not impossible), but being able to drive 5-6 around at once without paying 42c/mile for gas in the Suburban would be nice. Our electric is just under 15c/kWh and I just filled up my WRX for $5.25/gal. So cheap-ish electric and expensive gas here in the Sacramento CA area. I've averaged about $1700 in gas and 9500 miles per year on the WRX. Now I realize that that going to an EV isn't going to magically pay for itself over gas, but at least it sort of dampens the blow. Plus, being able to charge overnight at home and not wait in Costco lines anymore, except long trips, is really appealing. Plus, the WRX is a stick shift and I'm the only one in the family who knows how to drive it, and everyone else has no drive to learn, so it sometimes puts us in a car conundrum if I ever need the Suburban for errands, kid soccer car pool, or whatever. Everyone else is just stuck at home until I get back and franky I'm sick of fuckin hearing it from all the lame non-stick shift drivers in my house. ANYWAY I've been trying to solicit feedback about the Y, but also Tesla in general, from my friends who own one, and the only con they ever give me is "giving shithead Elon more money," and they all seem to love their Teslas. But a common sentiment has also been "gently caress you, I paid $10-20k more for the Y a couple years ago." So thread, what don't you like about your Tesla? What regular maintenance besides tires and brakes need done on Teslas? Henrik Zetterberg fucked around with this message at 23:04 on Apr 5, 2024 |

Henrik Zetterberg posted:ANYWAY Washer fluid is another consumable, but no different than any other vehicle. Also used to be the case that folks recommended that you hand-wash and do touchless car washes at most, but it’s hard to tell how much of that is people being Car People. My understanding is that you’re only going to be able to fit your smallest, least-liked kids in the “third row,” so if that’s a serious selling point for you, you might want to look at other options. On the Model 3 and Model Y, there’s some pretty infamous hoops to jump through if you need to mechanically release the rear doors. You’d also want to make sure you’ve got some sort of roadside flat repair kit so you and yours don’t get stranded somewhere, since there are no spare tires. The fit and finish bother some people - panel gaps and alignment, road noise, cheap plastic interior panels, etc. Mine has some screen discoloration since Tesla cheaped out on the adhesive, but I think they’ve fixed that since. There’s also larger Tesla design choices like avoiding physical controls that you’re either going to not mind or actively loathe. I’ve said it before, that this is more of an indictment of the rest of the auto industry than a compliment of Tesla, but mine has spent the least time getting repairs of any car I’ve owned.

Henrik Zetterberg posted:Model Y feedback req I liked my model Y. I had my share of issues in the first 2 years of ownership like a Pt sensor failure, hood latch sensor failure and an upper control arm failure that were all covered under warranty. I sold it because I moved across the country. My biggest complaint was the way their door opens w/ the inset handles and windows that have to roll down to open the door. That is only because I lived in an area with reliable snow and ice during the winter and I didn't have a garage to park in.

Can't really help you out much on the Y feedback, but this is the platonic ideal of "no one but yourself to blame". They're "stuck at home" for no reason other than laziness.
