But honestly people should be furious at Musk and demanding the board do something. He has damaged the brand beyond repair, forget the product being a piece of junk.
Just like the poster before you, they tried to do the right thing and is now probably getting unfairly targeted by people seeing him in a Tesla.
K, but if you bought one and got the credit at that point, you still knew you were supporting a fascist Nazi bigot sexist racist piece of ####, so congrats on it being above board I guess.
If anyone is interested, Tesla has two cases going this week about their misleading advertising around FSD capabilities. This is a thread from the one in California yesterday. it's kinda hilarious, sounds like the Tesla lawyers are getting Better Call Sauled with their own incompetence. Their entire argument seems to hinge on small print disclaimers.
Tesla has updated its vehicle configurator in the U.S. to remove its full Autopilot suite from all new Model 3 and Model Y trims. When ordering a new vehicle, the final configuration no longer includes Autosteer, the integral part of the Autopilot package that performs lane centering.
Will probably happen elsewhere. I like, not love, my 2022 Tesla, I've had it for 210 kms with nothing going wrong, but when the time comes will look elsewhere for a EV option. Kind of similar when Microsoft Xbox360 was on top, but then kinda self owned their demise.
Test drove a Model 3 recently. Not really in the market but was always curious.
Get 50 metres away from the dealership before I realised you couldn't turn off one pedal driving. Saleswoman assured me I'd get used to it but I really hate one pedal driving.
One pedal driving really isn't that hard to get used to, we have it on the Jag and it even allows you to turn it down to behave like a normal automatic -- haven't bothered yet. It took the better half not even a day to get accustomed to it.
What is a problem is being unable to disable it or reduce the engagement, since you really don't want to have it turned on in exceptionally slippery conditions. The electric motors aren't able to detect traction loss, whereas anti-lock brakes can prevent lockup and sliding. It's like engine braking in an ICE car, same reason why you don't want to downshift in a manual transmission-equipped car on ice.
