        Supercruise doesn’t work on local roads, drive assist does. I can keep my pinky on the wheel and give it the slightest pressure every few minutes when prompted. This is a God send in stop and go city traffic. I used to have super high stress in traffic every day, now I let the Tesla do all the stop and go braking/keeping distance and it’s way less stressful

          … keep my pinky on the wheel

          In what world does hands free include keeping your hands on the wheel?

            In what world does touching your pinky on a wheel ever minute or more qualify has tightly gripping your hands at 9’ and 3’oclock position. I get it you hate elon.me too. I still think the Tesla gives me a driving experience very few if not anyone else can replicate, especially on local roads. No one has been able to dispute me on that besides some dude that quoted the new Mercedes that launched this year. That sounds like Mercedes trying to keep up with tesla, not the reverse

            Elon is a douche nozzle, does that make you feel better? Have you ever actually driven a Tesla thru city traffic ?

              Hands-free by definition requires no hands. You are using terminology that is incorrect on the internet. Expect to be corrected.

              Everything else you replied to me is you being super defensive. I never stated anything else other than what you are taking about is technically not hands-free.

      Mercedes for example - and it works better than Tesla’s on shitty roads.

        Mercedes for example has two cars that just launched FSD this year. Vs Tesla who has 4 cars that can do autopilot for 3 years or more. Again I’m not trying to say Tesla is the best car, I’m trying to say they have differntiated features that few, if not any companies have had over the years, and yea that does not excuse their CEO from being a total douche.

      Exactly. So many of the naysayers haven’t used fsd first hand, so they don’t know how close they are to solving a huge problem. And no one else is really even trying anymore. Ask a graduating senior in IT or robotics where they dream of working and it’s Tesla.

        If you’re using FSD without your hands, you’re not doing what you’re explicitly supposed to be doing.

        So basically you’re saying that so many of the naysayers haven’t used FSD the wrong (and dangerous) way.

          I’m using drive assist without my feet, I can keep my pinky on the wheel and give it the slightest pressure every few minutes when prompted. This is a God send in stop and go city traffic. I used to have super high stress in traffic every day, now I let the Tesla do all the stop and go braking/keeping distance/keeping center and it’s way less stressful. I know other manufacturers have drive assist but I’ve driven my siblings BMWs Mercedes Maseratis Jaguars Land Rovers and (unless you’ve got a 2024 Mercedes) none of them are as easy to use as Tesla.

          I fucking hate Elon musk by the way, and I’m not a Tesla fanboy, they do a lot of anti consumer bullshit I dislike. I just think to over correct and say the cars have nothing better to offer vs competitors is disingenuous

            Again, that’s not how you’re supposed to use it.

              Again, that still differentiates this company vs any other car. The entire argument we’re having is that they don’t do anything different than anyone else.
