THIS is Why I Barely Use Tesla's Full Self Driving Beta … For now | FSD 10.12.2
Tesla's Full Self Driving beta continues to be a challenge for me to use on a daily basis. Each time that I try to use it, I typically will have at least one event which deeply shakes my confidence in the car. I recognize that the problem of Full Self Driving is extremely complex and will likely take many more years to solve. As a beta tester, I feel it is my duty to be critical of the system and highlight areas where improvements are needed.

Is the Tesla Model 3/Y White Interior Worth the Extra $1,000? | My Experience After 2.5 Years

    Helpful, important video, thanks! If I replace the Tesla glovebox thumb drive with something much bigger, like your 512GB SSD, then would the time before Tesla overwrites the footage be greater than that 1 hr you mentioned or would it still be 1 hr? Are both Sentry and Dashcam footage saved to the same USB in the glovebox? Update: saw your reply in the comments that the Dashcam will still idiotically overwrite after 1 hr, even with a bigger drive attached. That's pretty pathetic in 2024, Tesla. Any cheap dashcam you find on Amazon would do better than that. They need to re-assign engineers working on useless crap like ambient lighting, light shows and fart sounds to fix that ASAP. A bigger drive should at least let me store a lot more Sentry clips before running out of space at least, yes??

Any advice?

    • @KilowattAuto
      @KilowattAuto 8 месяцев назад

      The dashcam does loop and overwrite footage but sentry mode also saves to the drive. You likely have too many sentry mode clips saved. You can plug the drive into a computer and see if it’s actually full and delete files that way or there is a “format usb” button in the security menu if your car. If you use the formate usb option it will delete everything on the drive.

    The white interior certainly does get stained.. I attest you’re non stained and non torn up seats to your scrubs. There is no careful way to enter or leave a car unless you enter and exit like meth gorilla. The best thing to do is to buy a seat cover for the bottom half of the drivers seat. You do not need one for the passenger unless you ride with one 2/3rds of time you’re driving. I love the look of the white interior and it truly doesn’t get as hot in the sun as black but once you get the stain it’s very very hard to remove.

    Well it is 2023 and prices have gone up on EAP - 6,000 dollars and FSD - 15,000 dollars. I will stick with just the Basic Auto Pilot and Cruise control - free comes with every Tesla. I don't do Freeways for lane changing or need auto park/Summons features of EAP. The Tesla vehicle is costly enough without adding the FSD feature. Plus I do not see a justification to having my vehicle drive itself. FSD still has its problems in certain situations. Also EAP and Basic Auto Pilot (BAP) are not without some problems. I know there is a 200 a month subscription for FSD, but still too much money and again using the feature. If you have money you don't know what to do with, maybe these are for you. but not for me. Take care.
