@cybertruck @thedooberhead Is there comfort drive mode for model y

Unbelievable, cameras can see better than our own eyes…

Capital is the commodity. Proprietary deal flow and disciplined execution are the scarcity.

Absolutely breathtaking ! Fsd is game changer

Hey @elonmusk, auto journalist since 2002 (1st in France to test the Model S in 2013). Saying this might not be good for my business, but truth comes first: the new Model 3 RWD is the cheapest, yet the best Tesla and arguably the greatest EV in history.

Jason Cammisa on EV haters:

"If you don't think electric vehicles or electric propulsion is a superior transportation solution, it's because you haven't spent enough time in an electric car; We will run out of fuel at some point. It is a finite resource. Give people the experience of living with an electric vehicle everyday, there's no going back."

🇳🇱 Dutch YouTuber @Enzoknol testing Tesla FSD when a car blasts straight through a red light.

His reaction? Absolute shock at how clean FSD handled it.

@grugcapital 2 buckets.

Risk, innovation, and capital get rewarded because they generate the pie that pays wages in the first place. Some people’s view treats profits as a zero-sum pot to be redistributed rather than a signal of value created for society. That mindset leads to policies that shrink the pie (higher arbitrary taxes, price controls, anti-reinvestment incentives).

[Samuel Yang @RepeGent]

This ignores consumer surplus and scale. Amazon’s model delivered lower prices, vast selection, and convenience to hundreds of millions of customers while employing ~1.5+ million directly (plus millions indirectly). Arbitrarily “sharing more” via higher wages without corresponding productivity gains would have slowed that engine — fewer jobs, slower innovation, higher prices for everyone.

Secondly, Wealth Is Mostly Illiquid Equity, Not Cash ..

@franz_huemer Does it matter which model?

[Ming @tslaming]

Shanghai honestly feels less like a regular city and more like a massive, real-life Tesla showroom. Step onto any street here, and you’ll see Model Ys and Model 3s dominating the traffic in every direction 🔥

As one local Douyin influencer put it: "在上海不开特斯拉开什么? 开玩笑吗?" (If you're not driving a Tesla in Shanghai, what else would you drive? Are you kidding me?) 🔥

A Tesla will ruin your life… in the best possible way.

Once you drive one, everything else feels like a downgrade, because they’re that good. These stories are incredibly common.

[Tesla Asia @Tesla_Asia]

To protect passengers or cargo, the powered rear seats & trunk in Model Y will automatically pop back up if detecting an obstruction while folding.

FSD literally saved my life and my wife’s tonight.

Watch carefully - a car suddenly races in and merges into our lane with almost zero gap at highway speed. On the footage it’s hard to tell just how close it was, but in that exact moment me and my wife both thought “there’s no way a human could react fast enough.”
FSD did. In milliseconds it calculated the distance to our front bumper and instantly slowed down perfectly, leaving safe room. Slow-mo shows exactly how razor-close it was.

This wasn’t a minor correction… this was a massive accident avoided because of Full Self-Driving. This is why we trust Full Self-Driving with our family.

Thank you, @Tesla . This tech is next level.

Listen everyone. We are going to be seeing more and more and more of these.... Videos of FSD keeping families safe in ways that no other car company in the world can.

Huge shoutout to copilots @DBurkland @AaronS5_ for joining along. Videos coming soon. @Tesla_AI

It’s wild that most auto OEMs still sell you a car with a 250 dollar key fob, and that’s the only way to get into/start the car. Usually you only get 1 or 2. If you’re a family, this can end up getting kind of annoying, more often than you expect. At the park and someone’s near the car? Can’t grab the thing you forgot, because they don’t have a key. Getting the car inspected, need to let your wife or kid borrow yours? Don’t forget to give them the key. Left for a business trip and accidentally took your full keychain in the uber? Son can’t borrow the car while you’re gone.

With a Tesla, anyone with a smartphone can have a key to your vehicle. It seems like a small thing, but is so convenient so often. It makes sharing cars totally seamless.

Another amazing thing? Even if you’re on the other side of the world, you can text anyone a key to your car. Don’t know them well, don’t want them to have a key, they don’t have the Tesla app, but want to give them one-time access to get into/drive the car? When they’re near the car, just press the circled button below from anywhere in the world, and they’ll be able to get in and put it in drive without even having the Tesla app or a Tesla account.

So many small things like this that add up to make the Tesla ownership experience unmatched.

My old '22 MYLR was hit from behind in Nov 2024 by a distracted driver.

Right before the impact, I felt my seat belt tighten. When impact was made, the system kept us from rolling into the car in front of us and activated the emergency lights.

This was minor in comparison to many accidents, but I am still immensely thankful to Tesla for keeping us safe.
