This doesn't say that anything is being upgraded, just the drivers for another camera added, maybe. Is it needed for FSD? 99% probability of no. Is it because it may be cheaper? High probability. Will they replace existing cameras? At this point 110% probability of no. Much ado about nothing

Staying on FSD for long trips has been a piece of cake for years. That's not much more than adaptive cruise control with lane guidance. It's when you get off the big roads that it shines. I'm currently on a 600 mile trip and will probably be over 90% FSD. But I am driving a HW3 car with V12

Have you calculated the range loss with the additional weight? And if I read correctly, all of this range anxiety was much ado about nothing.

Can you not get the hint? They are not working on one-off issues at this time. If they are looking at the report, I can assure you that they have giant bins accumulating issues for specific disengagement reasons. Definitely not listening to your specific issues. But more importantly, they are...

But it is so much easier to come up with conspiracy theories than the truth.

Nope, it's not going to be any good. Not going to make a difference to what Tesla will do to replace your battery. And it does degrade your battery beyond normal. It takes at least an entire cycle out of the limited number of cycles that the battery has. It is an absolute given that in the...

Try this. Go find a parking lot covered with snow and some room to play in. Get in one corner and floor it. You may be surprised at what happens. 0-60 in 4s?, ROTFLAMO.

Maybe the better idea, when cars are off the side of the road is to not be on the road in the first place. You really didn't give any evidence why FSD would have made the trip worse, to the contrary, it may have kept you more rested.

Interesting that you could feel the additional wind resistance of about a sqft of extra material. (The wheels have a lot of metal as well) But the really interesting one, as others have pointed out, is that the "drag" created by the wheel covers is actually negative, they smooth the airflow...

Isn't this the same guidance for every vehicle?

I think that you are reading more into NEVI that the states that are deploying it have. I really don't see it being deployed in areas underserved by Tesla locations. It's mainly locations that the politicians *think* are underserved, or underserved by CCS, or in their covered areas. But it...

It's called Lombardy Street. Honestly, not really a challenge.

Agreed, it's not a simple issue and the only real alternatives are to have a battery large enough to take s day's worth of solar output and then dump it into the truck when the sun sets. With 400W of solar power and an average of 5-6 hours of effective charging, that's about 3kWh of batteries...

Things happen. The fact that the techs can't readily find it suggests that it is not a common issue.

Interesting, I just charged at a V4 pedestal in Orlando and it has a relatively new cabinet with V4 multi-connector, really thick cords. That's doesn't appear to support 861A charging to an individual post.
