@JeebsTX @Tesla @tesla_na @TeslaAUNZ @teslaeurope Or get 0% financing

The MAX car price you should pay based on your income: • $60k salary: $21,000 (Used Model 3) • $80k salary: $28,000 (Used Model Y) • $105k salary: $36,990 (Model 3 RWD) • $115k salary: $39,990 (Model Y RWD) • $120k salary: $41,990 (Model Y AWD) • $130k salary: $45,990 (Model Y Premium RWD) • $145k salary: $49,990 (Model Y Premium AWD) • $165k salary: $57,990 (Model Y Performance) These numbers keep your total purchase price capped at ~35% of your gross annual income. Financing more than this traps you in a cycle of high-interest auto loans and leaves you car-poor. Keep your overhead low, ignore the bank's maximum approval limits, and make sure you leave room for the $99 monthly Tesla FSD subscription.

@SawyerMerritt Not fair for states that already have an EV surcharge like Minnesota

U.S. House lawmakers have proposed ​bipartisan legislation that ‌would require electric vehicles to pay ​a $130 fee ​to pay for road ⁠repairs annually ​and $35 for some ​plug-in hybrid models. The House is working on a ​five-year highway reauthorization bill expected to ‌cost ⁠more than $500 billion ahead of the current law ​expiration on ​Sept ⁠30, 2026. Most revenue for ​federally funded ​road ⁠repairs is collected through diesel and ⁠gasoline ​taxes, ​which EVs do not pay. I think $130 is fair since over time there will be fewer gas vehicles on the road generating tax revenue, They'll need to make up the difference somewhere so they can keep repairing roads, etc. Full bill text in thread below:

@AndyZeGerman Tell me you don’t see 100 other people doing it though…

Sprinkle of Cybertruck FSD mishaps. FSD v14.3.2, build 2026.2.9.10. Crossing double white line is illegal in Georgia.

@kneubuehl Preference: takeover to put your car where you want to park or to take a different entrance to a place that you prefer. Discomfort: taking over because you aren’t comfortable with what the car is doing like tailgating. Pretty much anything the car does that you don’t like.

Can anyone explain to me the practical difference between these two options?

@DavidMoss So they reinvented the camera just more complex

Ouster has made the world’s first native color LiDAR sensor Tesla is still going to win, this is a very interesting product though. The race is on!

@mikepat711 Let’s agree to disagree, 14.2.2.5 has been doing worse since 14.3.x came out

My current feelings after a few weeks of 14.3.1 is that it was pretty significantly over-hyped. There are hints of higher intelligence during certain edge scenarios, but in routine day-to-day driving, I find it less consistent than 14.2.2.5. This post is going to sound negative, but please remember that it’s still V14, and still mostly incredible. I am just judging it against the hype, and relative to 14.2.2.5. There are a lot of “I’m going to go, OH FUCK, maybe I shouldn’t” moments that did not exist for me on 14.2.2.5 at all. Or “I’m going to go. AHH PROBABLY SHOULDNT HAVE” moments. Just not as polished. Also random moments where it’ll miscalculate deceleration curve and AEB it at the last second of a deceleration because it realizes it’s not slowing down fast enough. These are not super frequent, but frequent enough to notice it when it really never happened on 14.2.2.5. Parking seems better I guess, but honestly not that much different. At first it felt a lot better, but after more testing has ended up feeling pretty much the same as 14.2.2.5. Sometimes it crushes it, sometimes it’s annoying af. I think whatever was significant about 14.3 to make it “the final piece of the puzzle” either didn’t actually happen yet, or just exists under the hood today and isn’t visible to the customer yet. Definitely eager to see how this series evolves with point releases.

@KobraToldya @Tesla But do you have an original roadster?

Do I unlock some achievement badge for owning every @Tesla including solar panels? At least an invite to an event?

@wholemars @fsd_database When will it be my turn…

42.4% of vehicles on @fsd_database are now running Tesla Self-Driving 14.3

@Deandawiz Engineering test sample vs the prototype vs the high volume

Same company btw

@TexasTSLA The rims underneath look worse, they are just steel rims with no style to it

Does anyone really keep these on?? 👀

@MattWallaceTech Same boat with a 2025 Model 3, been wanting this update since the first build of 14.3.1

Anyone else still stuck on FSD V.14.2.2.5? Should I just switch my software update preference to standard because the advanced tab clearly doesn’t do anything.

@JuniperDriver 14.2.2.5 has really been doing bad recently since 14.3.x has been released

FSD indecisive lane selection on this turn. Turning onto a two way street, no lane to choose from, one lane in each direction. I had to intervene to avoid smashing the curb. 14.2.2.5

@megagoose11 Shut down the outer engine to cause a torque motion away from the core during BECO

Do I not know something about Falcon Heavy or… is this not ideal

@TeslaTim2 @Tesla Did you get the side seat controls to work for recline? I have a Tesla desk chair but I have a separate switch for the reclining function.

Or you can get mine from a @Tesla for a FRACTION of the cost. Even Less if you just want the recline feature

@MarioNawfal @Tesla I think they need to allow you to control it via Xbox controller for maneuvering around your driveway to properly park it when it doesn’t want to park

It’s happening. Cybercab is in volume production. No steering wheel. No pedals. Nothing to take over. It’s made to drive itself from day one. Under $30K. Can’t be ignored. Now it’s real. @Tesla

@brandenflasch The v4 stalls were made so you didn’t have to block 2 stalls but you decided to do it anyway

The only DCFC issue in the last 2000 miles was a V4 post derating after just a couple min to 354A - luckily swapping stalls didn't require moving the truck with long cables 😅

@jeremyjudkins_ Especially you @jeremyjudkins_, dude everyone makes fun of you because of how you act in your videos

So can every Tesla owner

@DBurkland I had 14.2.2.5 do this the other day day where it started to pull over for no reason, the only car around was a school bus a few hundred feet behind me

Emergency Vehicle False Positives w/ FSD v14.3.1 Based on the release notes for FSD v14.3 and v14.3.1, we know Tesla recently improved the model's ability to detect and respond to emergency vehicles, school buses, and other rare vehicle types. During my drive to the gym yesterday, we encountered several emergency vehicles, and these enhancements were immediately apparent in how fast the car reacted and pulled over to the right for each. With that said, the new functionality could definitely use a bit of refinement. We encountered two false positives along the way, one of which I still do not fully understand.

@anonimuhabir Why in the hell are you doing all this with a 9% arrival, that’s nothing, I once arrived home at 1%, even then teslas have a massive buffer to them.

480 km menzilli elektrikli otomobiliyle uzun yola çıkan bir kişi, şarjı hızlı tükenince yolda kalmamak için farları kapattı: “Farları kapattık, ışığı telefonla tutuyoruz. Arabayı da boşa aldık. Yüzde kaç oldu hemen bakalım, %9 ile şarj yerine varacağız inşallah. Klima da kapalı, her şey kapalı. Birazdan arabadan inip koşacağız. Çok ışık yok çünkü ışıklarımız kapalı. Tesla kullanmanın sonu bu.”

@ZacksJerryRig @teslascope @Tesla_Optimus HW1 and HW2 were never promised to be full self driving

@teslascope @Tesla_Optimus That's also what they said for HW1, HW2, HW2.5, and HW3 but ok. Source: I was there from the beginning.

Elon has reiterated that there are no plans to use AI5 chips in customer vehicles for the foreseeable future. The chip will be focused on @Tesla_Optimus and supercomputers. Tesla remains on track for releasing Full Self-Driving Unsupervised on the latest FSD computer (AI4).
