How smooth a ride is FSD?
FSD just saved my phone.
I’m building a gazebo in the backyard… was using our Model Y’s rear end as a ‘table’ for reading the virtual instructions on my phone.
While looking for a tool, my wife left to go pickup my older son.
She didn’t notice my phone on the tailgate area.
I had been distracted… not really paying attention to her departure.
Suddenly, my heart dropped.
Where was my phone?
I looked in the garage, I looked in the kitchen. Surely it wasn’t on the car, right?
But I couldn’t find it!
I instructed my other son to call her while I quickly darted down the road… expecting to find my phone cracked and lying on the side of the road or in a ditch at the first turn or two out of our neighborhood.
Nothing.
I ran home, sweating and panting from the Texas heat.
As I walked in my kid had a grin.
Did he find it?
Nope… but she had.
7 minutes of driving and 4.3 miles of distance, my phone had ridden on the tailgate of our Tesla… with FSD driving.
There was a very slight magnetic pull from the phone case… but not enough to keep the phone from sliding all around… just enough to keep it from toppling over the edge.
The phone should have slid right off the car during one of the turns the car made… or each time it accelerated… even onto a highway entrance ramp.
My wife got the call from my son while going 60+ mph and exited immediately.
My son told her she was wasting her time to check the car. No way could it still be there.
Both were absolutely shocked when she found it like this.
FSD had driven the car so smooth and steady… that the phone had remained on the car the entire time.
Now for full disclosure, my wife likes to ride in ‘Chill’ mode… so perhaps that contributed. But she had moved it to ‘Standard’ before the highway.
So either way it was a small miracle.
Thank you @Tesla for building a car with an ai brain so comfortably smooth, that it saved my phone from certain destruction! @yunta_tsai@aelluswamy
Let’s talk about Supercharging.
Some companies are trying to get into the business and provide their own charging.
For example @KwikTrip I love Kwiktrip. I go there everyday to buy snacks. I wish they had stock. I’d invest with how much I spend there.
They do many great things. They are always bringing new options. They are not afraid of change which is amazing.
But from a consumer standard one thing they are trying is using their own 3rd party Kwik Charge and I think it’s going to flop.
They don’t understand charging. They need to partner with Tesla. Their charging business would thrive.
Kwik trip does have some Tesla Superchargers. Here is a recent one at South Beloit with new 325 kW V4 Tesla Superchargers. It’s always full. A lot of traffic.
Then on HW45 on Holy Hill RD they recently installed their own Kwik Charge, there are never any vehicles charging. Here I parked just to demonstrate. (Actually FSD parked me there lol)
I mean never see anyone charging. In fact some times gas cars park in the spots smh
Also it doesn’t show up as option to charge or precondition. That is probably why they get no traffic.
But at our Tesla Superchargers they are alway used and full by Tesla’s and non Tesla’s
Anyway. @KwikTrip check into @TeslaCharging I think it would benefit you.
I know it would benefit the customers.
Proof: The Tesla Robotaxi rollout in Miami begins right away with UNSUPERVISED vehicles. That signals an accelerated rollout capability by Tesla - something we had yet to see proven out. It remains to be seen how fast they can continue to enter new cities, enlarge the geofence, and add vehicles to the fleet, and whether that pace itself accelerates over the coming months; but this is a good sign.
