@SawyerMerritt However, "ok" finger gesture meaning can be very different in other cultures: South America (Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay): Often considered a vulgar insult, equivalent to the middle finger, implying homosexuality or crude references snippetknow.com.

Drove on FSD for a total of about 4 hours today. Was getting a lot of 👌 on my Model Y lol. Guy in the black Model 3 said he's picking up his new Tesla soon.

Well this is new. FSD V14.3.3 has a live counter right on the main screen that shows how many miles you’ve driven on FSD since your last intervention. It resets back to zero when you disengage (shown below):

@wisdom_felix01 @elonmusk >>try Grok Is it just me, or is Grok severely limited in my 2025 Tesla. What's up with that. 3 to 4 questions and up pops a message that I've "limited out" for 24 hours.

Grok Voice Think Fast crushing it on that τ-Voice benchmark is huge. Real-time background reasoning with zero latency penalty? That's the kind of agentic leap that actually moves the needle for customer service at scale. Starlink support just got a massive upgrade. Well played team xAI!

Grok Voice Think Fast 1.0 ranks #1 on the Artificial Analysis τ-Voice benchmark for real-world agentic customer service resolution Absolutely outperforming GPT-Realtime-2 (High) and Gemini 3.1 Flash by a huge margin That's a massive 12%+ lead over OpenAI's best model that just released a few days ago Grok is running real-time background reasoning without the latency penalty, which is why it is already handling live Starlink phone operations autonomously at scale

@SawyerMerritt Nothing here on 2025 MYLR AWD (pre-juniper). I'm thinking my switch to EERO net isn't reaching my garage with a strong enough signal. I'm stuck on 2026.2.9.1. FSD 14.2.2.5.

FSD 14.3.1 stopped for police hand directing traffic. Great. Then just went without waiting for the signal to go. Not great. 👀 I disengaged but because I am not early access I can’t report the feedback to @Tesla_AI as I was too close to my destination.

@ChuckCook Chuck, at our advanced age and our age-related slow reflexes, "Chill" is about the only speed I want to go. What's the hurry? When we were young, we took lots of risks. How we lived to an old age is beyond me. But hey, now's the time to enjoy life. Not stress out!

In FSD v14.3 I'm driving down to Orlando. I keep getting put into chill mode where it will only allow me to drive in chill or sloth. I'm thinking it's the occasional light rain. I can't think of any other reason to do it. I really don't like being forced into a mode for what the car perceives as light rain. It's too aggressive.

@elonmusk Nobody gives a shit. I sold one of my Tesla. Is Tesla taking full Insurance responsibility with FSD yet? Customers like have been generating free AI training data for you while paying premium for insurance. Put that in your first principles bullshit.

@elonmusk @aelluswamy @SawyerMerritt FSD 14.2.2.5 "senses" a vehicle wasn't going to stop at stop sign before driver ran it. FSD cuts our speed in half to avoid an accident. Jeese, I love FSD! Thanks guys!

@amitlikhyani @mikepat711 You've bought into the great car myth. You don't need "viseral impact" of a car. A car is, after all, an appliance that sole function is to move you safely and reliably from point A to point B. Everything else is advertising and car salesman bs.

Why is the Model Y so popular? You’re not a fan of the way it looks? Don’t like the minimalist interior? Looks too small? The reason the Y is so popular is because every fine grain of the vehicle’s design comes from first principals. Tesla designed the Y to be the most useful car possible for as many people as possible. Everything is driven by utility. You come to fully appreciate this as an owner, and it is why their customer retention is so high and why it is one of the most successful vehicles ever produced. The design prioritizes aerodynamics, allowing Tesla to provide as many miles of range as possible per unit of cost. They didn’t make it boxy or give it more ground clearance than necessary because they understood that this isn’t useful for 99% of the people who buy mid sized SUV’s. Maybe you think the RAV4 looks cooler, but it isn’t as optimized to be useful for the majority of people who own it. It’s just vanity that isn’t as valuable as utility for almost anyone once the novelty wears off. There is no “novelty” with the Y. You love it the same on day 700 as you did on day 10, because everything you love about it is actually valuable to you all the time. The interior is minimal because everything is automated. Beyond the buttons on the steering wheel, there is no real need for any dash buttons once you’ve set everything. Every car I’ve owned in my life before a Tesla had so many buttons that I never used, or didn’t even know wtf they were for. Tesla doesn’t put unnecessary stuff in their cars because it just adds clutter and cost. I love this not just because it helps make it affordable, but because it makes the vehicle incredibly easy to keep clean. It is a big change that most need to get used to, but once you do, you wonder why other OEMs aren’t doing the same thing. Every inch of the Model Y is optimized to be as useful as possible. Too small? This is a myth. Many do not realize that the interior storage space in a Model Y is higher than other popular SUVs like the RAV4, CX5, etc. the aero exterior design makes it look smaller from the outside, but inside, it provides MORE cubic feet of cargo space than these competitors, not less. This is why the people who own the Model Y love it, and do not go back to legacy SUVs. As an ordinary car, the Model Y packs more value per dollar than competitors. It doesn’t sacrifice usefulness for vanity. Tesla understands they lose some stubborn, closed minded customers because they’ve gone this route. But they accept this because their goal is to make the actual best car possible, not one for people who are afraid of change. Seems like it paid off considering it is one of the most popular vehicles of all time. And the craziest part? All of this is true before we even talk about self driving, which is the most insane innovation in a vehicle ever. It’s already the best ordinary vehicle for most people, but it is also a sentient robot. The Y is an engineering work of art that cannot be fully appreciated until it is lived with.

@SawyerMerritt @Tesla @elonmusk @Tesla Today I listened to the Senate committee meeting about EV adoption, safety and accessibility. I'm disabled due to paralytic polio. Our 2025 MYLR AWD and FSD shows me what the future could hold. I'd love to help develop a Tesla wheelchair van. Hope you do it!

Here is the full opening statement today before the U.S. Senate Commerce Committee from Lars Moravy, VP of Vehicle Engineering at @Tesla. “ For America to maintain its position in global technological development and grow its advanced manufacturing capabilities, we must enact a federal framework for the development and deployment of AVs (autonomous vehicles). The committee has the opportunity to position NHTSA as a global gold standard for AV development.”
