@Speenuh @MissJilianne No kidding eh 😂

@arctechinc @MissJilianne Yeah I’ve really had to learn to stop buying the hype and set realistic expectations over the years. For a company that was so hell-bent on “setting expectations” (you know what I’m talking about 😉) they seem to love to overhype 😂

I call 🐂 💩

@Tesla Honestly driving a Tesla shrinks your idea of a long trip

FSD Supervised shrinks your idea of a long trip

@JoshWest247 🤣🤣🤣

I can’t unsee it… Ferrari has unveiled a pool vaccum

@Speenuh @MissJilianne Oh 100%, the issue is the overhype by Elon on Tesla on what's its actually capable of. It is not a level 3 system yet and I'm convinced it will never be level 5 with the current hardware stack. It's an AMAZING level 2++ system and I wish people would just accept that reality.

I don’t know if I’d necessarily say you’d be fooling it so much as it just understanding the context of the situation it’s in. FSD is still far from perfect but it has certainly gotten substantially better at handling these kinds of things, in the right context, albeit not always perfectly.

@ntwork @spotted_model Ok, thank you for confirming.

@arctechinc @spotted_model Not presently.

Congrats Lucid! Also interesting advertising NACS with the “Tesla” name prominently in the hero shot 🤔🙌

@ntwork @spotted_model Any way to use a Tesla supercharger membership with plug and charge with our Lucid, or only way is still to enable the charger via the Tesla app first to get the cheaper per kWh rate?

@spotted_model Quite a few consumers are still not aware that Lucid Gravity and Air offer plug and charge convenience at Tesla Superchargers in North America. They still have the best charging network in North America so we are pleased to showcase a Supercharger to reinforce this capability.

@MissJilianne My favorite is how they say it's perfect, no interventions required yet complained about the selection required when they disengage and how it was in the way. But if they never disengage how do they ever see that? 😂

Here’s a short script of TSLA stock pumpers. Don’t believe me, watch for yourself. FSD V10 was flawless, perfect, you could drive endlessly without any disengagements. FSD V11 was flawless, perfect, you could drive endlessly without any disengagements. FSD V12 was flawless, perfect, you could drive endlessly without any disengagements. FSD V13 was flawless, perfect, you could drive endlessly without any disengagements. FSD V14 was flawless, perfect, you could drive endlessly without any disengagements. FSD V14.3.3 is flawless, perfect, you can drive endlessly without any disengagements.

@Speenuh Happy birthday!

I’m officially:

As Trump posts AI videos of him assaulting Stephen Colbert, here’s what Colbert was doing: Dancing with his wife, having fun at the Fired & Festive!” afterparty in NYC.

I’m super excited for the R2 (and hopefully getting one!) but my 2017 Model S 100D is my favorite car I’ve ever driven. I truly feel at home every time I get in it. The way it goes down the road, the sound system, the seats, the practicality of it, the way it just eats up miles all day… you name it. It’s just such a fantastic car. Outside of FSD continuing to develop, Tesla as a brand, for me personally, dies today. As cool as robots, “robotaxi’s” and AI are, it’s just not enough for me to find the excitement I once had for the brand that I used to consider my favorite in the world. Not anymore. I wish them luck, and hopefully the massive bets they’re making on the future pay off, but I’m glad there are other players in the space now (Rivian, Lucid, etc) that are making compelling EVs. Rest in Peace, Model S (and X, as much as I disdained servicing them). 🫡

Uneducated voters are more dangerous than illegal immigrants.

You could start by walking down the hall. See why your boss keeps pardoning people convicted of money laundering, wire fraud, tax evasion, and securities fraud.

The backlash over Tesla's self-driving promises is heating up. bit.ly/3PlHhBP

I haven't been able to drive the new software FSD v14.3.3 yet as I'm going to work for a few days. After reading the release notes I want to say something about the gamification of FSD intervention free streaks. In my opinion, this incentivizes not disengaging when it might be necessary. Keeping an intervention free streak going is not important. Driving safely is the most important. We are still supervising these vehicles. I implore everyone to not let this display, or keeping a streak alive push you into making a bad decision. Take care of yourself and those around you. Supervise safely.

@Speenuh @spotted_model I wish Tesla included the MCU upgrade with HW3 but honestly that MCUv2 upgrade was worth every penny at the time 😂

@spotted_model If they owned FSD then the HW3 upgrade was free, the MCU upgrade was not lol

My first estimate for the P100D. MCU1 is annoyingly slow. First owner upgraded to HW3 but not the MCU 🙄

V14.3.2 in my sister’s Model Y was great but it’s nice to be back in my Model S. Can’t believe Tesla discontinued these 💔

Time to allow Chinese EVs to be sold tariff-free in the United States. Let the free market compete and consumers decide who wins.
