I disagree with Chuck on this one don't like how fast FSD went around the dude with a death wish working on his truck on a busy road.

The "free" streaming service that has been included with Premium Connectivity, is going away in December. It was nice when it didn't cost more, but since I already pay for Amazon Music Unlimited, I really won't miss it.

I had to do about 2 hours of conference calls from my car yesterday in a parking lot - heat index still about 105 here.. so the AC was running, screen was on etc. the whole time. When i was finally done, I walked away from the car and had 37% battery. I came back about 30 minutes later (car not plugged in) and had 41% battery. Anyone ever experience this? I have no idea how the car could have gained battery life. This was a first, so just curious if anyone else has seen this.

TSLA down over 5%, in large part because Q3 deliveries fell short of “analyst expectations” by …wait for it …. 1007 vehicles.

“The EV maker delivered 462,890 vehicles in the three months to Sept. 30, up 6.4% quarter over quarter but below the 466,000 EVs the company delivered in the year-ago period.Wall Street had expected Tesla to deliver closer to 463,897, according to Bloomberg.”

absolute madness.

Welcome to wall street. My own company's stock takes a slight tumble (1-2%) if we exceed analyst expectations, but not by "enough". Like ours, TSLA will recover quickly unless there are other factors to drive it down.

Nope, never have I seen that. I've sat in my Model Y for an hour in sweltering heat and lost about 3 percent

I think they added solar charging in their last update. j/k

I have seen ours go up a percent or 2 after sitting. I've never really thought about it.

perhaps it was predicting you'd be on your conference calls longer than you were.

or it predicted it would have to keep cooling the battery down after you were done but it didn't have to...

or it's a bug.

I used A.S.S. last night to show a family member - really cool, worked perfectly again. However.... also went to show them FSD and at an intersection where we were going straight and had a green light, the car started slowing down - like it couldn't figure out if we in fact had the green light. There were 2 lanes going straight - so 2 green lights - and 2 left turn lanes that had the red light (red arrow). Very straight forward. Have used FSD on that road in that same spot probably 25-30 times (it's 2 miles from my house). Had never had it behave like that. Totally bizarre.

There was a recent update (got it last night) and that could have thrown things off. Try that same area again in a few days
