@mikepat711 iiinteresting. I didn’t know that FSD would still work with a bike rack installed. I have a platform rack that I often use and I was hoping to continue using it when I get my first Tesla.
We finally have a clear picture of Tesla’s plan. The numbers show a well-coordinated strategy:
- Very small fleet in 2026 keeps accident risk extremely low and buys time to finish v15, further raising FSD’s safety level before any large-scale deployment.
- Testing of v15 improvements is already underway on the Robotaxi fleet, supporting a complete v15 release by the end of 2026 or early 2027 (as previously indicated in Q1).
- The growth rate Ashok communicated should allow Tesla to fully utilize Cybercab production capacity next year—clear coordination between FSD maturity and manufacturing targets.
- It also gives enough time to collect enough data from the Farzads to train FSD for the Cybercab form factor.
- Seeding strategy across multiple cities and states this year ensures enough markets are ready for the big ramp-up in 2027.
This looks like a carefully thought-through plan, not the usual aspirational statements.
I prefer short-term disappointment over hype. Yesterday’s earnings call met every expectation.
Now go cook, Tesla team.
Do legacy media outlets typically use headlines involving the make of a car in a crash or is that only for Tesla?
It would be one thing if the self-driving malfunctioned but the crash was purely human-induced.
Seems like these outlets want to associate Tesla with crashes as part of a narrative and overall political agenda.
🚨 Here is the full 53 minutes of my crew and I exposing New York fraud, we uncovered over $190,000,000 in fraud as these fraudsters use the elderly and needy to commit fraud through adult and personal home care scams in NYC. Your tax dollars are paying for elderly Koreans and Chinese to play ping pong and do tai chi, while the fraudsters give $ kickbacks to those who enroll. Like it and share this video, the fraud must STOP.
We ALL work way too hard and pay too much in taxes for fraudsters to steal from our pockets. These fraudsters have been able to defraud American taxpayers for years without any pushback from the public and politicians. Time is up.
EXPOSE IT ALL AND END THE FRAUD.
No doubt.
If we save on fuel costs, reduce mishaps through FSD and get lower insurance rates, that could be some real benefits for taxpayers when applied across the fleet.
And from a law enforcement/performance perspective, the Teslas are very fast and powerful. I’d imagine that would stack up favorably to legacy vehicles.
🚨 Tesla just released Q2 2026 delivery numbers (see screenshot) and they were a record high for any Q2 in history, only 0.6% above my most recent $TSLA forecast some jeered as laughably high.
Every journalist who lied about this has blood on their hands. They’re killing people. This is like urging people not to wear seat belts.
Go take a demo drive with Tesla��s latest self-driving software and try to tell me with a straight face that i’m wrong.
This blatantly irresponsible reporting does more harm to people than they realize.
Using Tesla self-driving is far safer than manual driving, and this was measured over 10B miles.
Planting such FUD in the minds of general public, who might not know the all the facts, might prevent them from using this technology that makes them safer.
