I would not like the governor approach. There are times I want to floor it, and I don't want it limited to 85. Wouldn't it be better if it just shut it off temporarily where you could take over and then resume when you get back to FSD speeds? This would have to make sure you wanted it shut off...
Yep, every time there is a new speed limit, you gotta spin that track wheel down to your max of 65. At least you can manage it. The other way is annoying...
I'm definitely with you on yelling at the truck! I engage manually and drive only when I know I'll be over the 85 FSD limit and well below the CT limit!
Driving out west where they have those big speed limits of 75 or even 80, I find FSD very annoying because it keeps slowing down and I have yet to get it to maintain a speed of 83, 84 or 85, without have to nudge it back up. It will hold it a minute (at most) and then slow back down. The CT hard...
Noone seemed to suggest this temporary workaround? I tend to try to wash/squirt the windshield when the truck is at a very slow speed; less juice gets wasted and more ends up on the windshield.
I also would love the option to have it squirt on the downward thrust as well as the upward thrust!
I just got this message this morning driving through New Mexico on my way back to NJ. So found the next Service Center on my way which was Albuquerque and they are checking it out. They included an engineering group (3 letters?). It was 19 last night so could be cold issue. The warning was gone...
Come on everyone - - this is the last day of the month and quarter and Tesla needs (wants) to earn the revenue from FSD for as many vehicles as they can get! Hence, we all win. Sorry but I need to go take an FSD test drive since it finished downloading!!! Enjoy FSD and the stock bump after...
My son just moved near Carlsbad and finds it cheaper to hit a supercharger than to charge at home. Crazy expensive there. I will have him call about an EV plan. THANK YOU!
Who does that? I do! After I got comfortable with my S, I often arrived with single digits of range remaining (e.g., 3 to 6 miles (not %)) when I knew the route to the supercharger and wanted the fastest charging curve to shorten long trips. I loved taking that car on long trips!
But I...
Funny you say you expect it on your 2013 S; I got that message on my 2015 S flying through Ohio in April. Really hot day, had the AC blasting, knew I only had a few more miles to supercharger and was arriving with 3%, so pushed my speed higher. I never noticed 2%; it dropped to 1% expected upon...
Offer you some unlimited supercharging for a period!? Or offer that to all of us instead of the FSD for a different car. The supercharging has a real cost to it. The FSD is software that doesn't generate a cost which is why I liked it. I'm a shareholder too!
@StainlessVoyager THAT is a great idea and a very fair thing to do; we did pay for it and many of us have other Teslas so I love your idea. I do caution you that the transfer of valuable things like Unlimited Supercharging, is WAY LESS than optimal (i.e., see the hijack post about transferring...
Scouting is the only responsible thing I do now; just home from an Eagle Project where we recharged the cordless tool batteries in the CT.
I had a young lady earn 11 palms! The Troop has 93 Scouts; it may as well be a full-time gig.
Oh great point; thanks. It was a 70D but was caught up in the buffer adjustments/battery issues where my range dropped, a bunch of smarter users complained, and then my range went back up. I didn't much care cause I had free unlimited supercharging and by that time, there were plenty of...
