Hard work paying off!

@Genyosai @Tesla Hey, yeah it’s been a while Yes! 1.5 year old now! Going on 16 😂 Thanks!

@AUE_61 @Tesla Hey. It's been a while. You have a "family" now?? I know it's late, like I said... it's been a while. But, CONGRATS (on the car and family lol).

I did a thing. Time to get a bigger car for the family. Here comes Silver Bullet 2.0! @Tesla #ModelY

@1ssve Close the social media app and reopen it. It’s not Apple, it’s the app.

Dear Apple and CarPlay please STOP pausing my music every time I open a social media app. I can doom scroll and listen to music at the same time.

@mikepat711 FSD shouldn’t have to do this. The supercharger station already knows when a non Tesla is charging and they consume more spots to show the correct number of available chargers. The supercharger just didn’t communicate this information to your car for it to handle this.

Interesting FSD edge case. FSD was correctly backing up into a supercharger spot, but a Ford Mach-E was parked to our left, using the plug that would normally be ours if the design team at Ford had the brains to realize their customers would be using Tesla’s charging infrastructure. Did they think their customers were going to use their charging network? 😂 The crazy thing is that FSD is going to recognize stuff like that eventually.

@TSA This service is paid for! It should not suffer Reducing staff at precheck is ok, but do not close it!

At this time, TSA PreCheck remains operational with no change for the traveling public. As staffing constraints arise, TSA will evaluate on a case by case basis and adjust operations accordingly. (1/2)

@HinrichsZane No Cell production here. Skylights/uncontrollable light sources impact vision systems Controlled light sources means repeatable vision systems.

Who can tell me what part of auto or truck assembly lines don’t have skylights? The southeast section of Tesla’s Giga Semi is the only section without them. Is it battery cell manufacturing?

@TrevorScottReal That’s how it was before they had FSD transfer Even today, if you have a totaled car and wait to buy a new one but the old one is removed from your account, you are not able to transfer FSD because the original car is no longer in your account.

Wait…. So if my car with FSD gets totaled, I will basically just lose the $10,000 FSD purchase. Confused by this.

@BStarr119 @BeardedTesla @grok Thinking the same thing. Left is the speaker, right looks like a radar at first but definitely not. Next thought was homelink, but there isn’t a 48V module for it.

@BeardedTesla @grok what’s that component on the right corner of the bumper from this view in the video?

Still amazes me how much they can fit

@HustleBitch_ I live near a distribution center, but sometimes we still see more than 2 days. This has been going on for years though. People are just now realizing this?? I’ve complained multiple times to Amazon.

🚨 AMERICANS ARE REALIZING AMAZON PRIME "TWO-DAY" SHIPPING IS OVER Videos are stacking up of customers calling out Amazon for the same thing: Prime promises speed, but deliveries now arrive days or weeks late, same-day windows get missed, and “arriving today” quietly turns into tomorrow… or next week. This woman put it bluntly: “Why are we paying $130 a year for 2-day shipping and getting it 5 to 7 days later?” People say this wasn’t just a holiday issue, it was happening months before Christmas, and it’s still happening now. Two-day shipping feels like a label that stuck around long after the service disappeared. Is Prime still worth paying for in 2026?

@JoshWest247 Tow hook and the wires are probably to open the frunk, just like all other teslas.. no real frunk on the cab, but this would help unlock the latch.

Both the Cybercab spotted in SF and the Cybercab I spotted in Austin have a circle cut out of the front plate bracket. The left photo (California) shows cables or plugs hanging off it of it while the right photo (Texas) shows just the hole. Any ideas what this is for?

@mkg254 @teslaflexx MyQ =/= HomeLink

@teslaflexx Pretty crazy seeing that was standard equipment on a 2007 Camry

Homelink retrofit done by yours truly 😤

@EZebroni If they tint the rear window, good luck because the heating wires for the defrost will come off with it..

A strange request from my Turo renter. The last time a renter put tint on the windows of one of my Teslas, they were flash banged at a Tesla supercharger and arrested (video pinned on my subscriber page). What should I say?

@SafetyinNumbrz @MyLordBebo Yes, they do. The sensors detect this and will command the doors to unlock. I’m not positive when they are unlocked during/after the event, but in the event that there is no power from the crash, how do you unlock? That’s the point

🇨🇳 China reacts to a crash and bans retractable door handles! In the accident (video), the door handles stopped working and bystanders couldn’t rescue the person inside. Sadly he died in the fire. Now doors need to be working fully without electricity, so that even after a crash you can open the door. Sounds good to me, so we are back to classic standard door handles that work since the invention of the car door?

@gregm12 @ChadMoran There’s other data that can be used, but my thinking is that this would basically trigger an event to save the data and then the reasoning determined later and then classified for training - object in road, pot hole, etc

@ChadMoran @AUE_61 That was actually one of the first things I thought of - I would guess collaborative steering is even better/stronger reinforcement for the model than using general driving data.

I really liked the way Rivian implemented collaborate steering input without needing to disengage. Also, universal hands free*

@Joshs_wx @brandenflasch It will get there. The gov was backing some routes, unsure if that’s still happening, but the true Tesla way is to just do it yourself, so with time I bet we’ll see those.

@AUE_61 @brandenflasch Hopefully. Destination charging is going to be more of the issue, rather than origination.

4680 is a total flop

@Joshs_wx @brandenflasch The trucking industry is a mix of driver owned trucks and company owned trucks. First will be company owned they will be the first to add the private? charging infrastructure and as the public charging infrastructure grows we’ll probably see a shift in driver owned as well.

@Joshs_wx @brandenflasch I mean there are plenty of orders for the semi truck. Many companies have committed orders. It’s also different when companies own the trucks. Many semi truck drivers are excited actually. Many companies provided feedback and they improved it for what they wanted.

@Joshs_wx @brandenflasch Not really true, but even if there’s a slow ramp there it will be a large number of 4680 cells compared to other programs which would consume a large amount of GFTX capacity.

@AUE_61 @brandenflasch Semi won’t be high volume for a long time. Charging infrastructure isn’t there yet and fleets are slow to adapt.
