Why assume defensiveness? Many of us are simply tired of the massively anti-EV/anti-Tesla mainstream news and the constant reporting of things like this which raise fear without providing any context or followup. Everyone who read that story thought, "OMG EV FIRES KILL." Almost nobody will...

How much less could you care? Do you care a LOT and therefore could care a lot less? Or care just a little bit and could care just a little bit less? Wait, never mind, I couldn't care less. This is news because EV BAD EV DIFFERENT SCARY EV!

The ticket is open, the SC rep who looked at it thinks it's likely covered since there was no impact. He said to give him until tomorrow, the final decision-maker was unavailable.

Just had this happen. It hasn't been off road in months. Hasn't been run into a curb, that I can see on the sidewall, and also the crack is on the inside. I haven't started a service incident or anything. I'm at a Discount Tire real close to the SC so I might just go and ask.

Arizonans and Floridians don't have anything in common when it comes to yellow/red lights. No idea what you're assuming here, but two different things. Yellow anywhere on a motorcycle, even the NW, means blaze it if you can. In FL, it means, even in a car, you get 2-3 cars through the red...

It's funny-sad that my explanation of how ADAS works in the real world across tens of thousands of miles and many years has been turned into a bizarre set of assumptions from people who apparently have zero experience with it. Which sadly mirrors a discussion right now on a medical forum where...

I only napped in the back seat of the Tesla on the highway Sorry but as a motorcyclist my first instinct at a yellow light is drop a gear and go. The chances of being rear ended by a cager looking down at his phone is infinitely higher than any danger from running a yellow. Even in a car, I’ve...

I can't believe I have to say this, but, you would...press the brake. Hardship I know, the car should just handle 100% of everything. For 98% of driving, it works hands/feet free. Not always. I wish I'd said that. Wait...

No, you made something up that was not said or implied.

LOL what? Ok, stop signs sure. I never use it then. Stop lights? Tens of thousands of miles where I don't touch anything because there are cars to make it stop at lights. Nearly every light. False. That's why my wife wouldn't use it, I was fine with that limit. That would be very...

What??? I'm totally confused on what you've assumed that "remove 98% of the workload means" or how any of these systems work. If there's a car in front of you, AP, Comma, Toyota/Honda/everyone stops for the car. If you come to a light without a car in front of you...you press the brake. Then...

I've got tens of thousands of miles of AP on streets, and a few hundred of EAP on streets. It was excellent. I have no idea how to address "meant for" but I don't believe you, and the evidence is clear that it works. Absolutely false. I've driven a lot of ADAS on city streets, many brands.

Some of us, spending significant time on streets, also think that it's important to have basic lane keeping and speed management there. There's no reason a 2018 Kia should have more ADAS than our Rivians.

VERY important difference, and trying to understand why people change meanings of carefully chosen words is a challenge. On top of this, the entire security aspect is something I got wrapped up in years ago, and could not find any evidence that four-door unlock was commonly being leveraged as a...

I agree, but AP is now gone (or being removed soon). I think that EAP or what the Comma does is perfect, because you give up 98% of the workload. So I have to turn into a parking lot manually. The old Rivian highway-only system is far from enough however.

I'll assume this is an honest question, because to me it seems so odd. When my truck drove me 1700 miles recently, in very high comfort, with a lot of space, and all my creature comforts at hand like a fridge with cold drinks...that made it worth the cost. To me. I have a Comma self driving...

The desire to base a decision on buying a 50-100k object to only solely drive it around makes me wonder how many Enterprise rentals you could do for $60k. That was actual math we did when we ran as a single-car house for a while. But the answer is that both Lyft/Uber and rentals added too much...

I didn't, but carry on. Someone lamented "What is the world coming to" and I pointed out it's not new. Nobody has posted their experiences. This is hilarious. And a learning experience. You're making up a lot. Back on topic, I tested and confirmed that my truck, if auto-unlocked with the...

There are a few threads here with discussions of this, and I've posted my additions before.

Yes, it is. I was there in the 80s and again, this is not new. It's a useful learning experience.
