Date: September 15th, 2026 7:33 AM Author: biglaw associate asking if link is worksafe @ 11pm Pros:
-It is never distracted -It is hyperaware of its surroundings and will see things you don't
Cons: -It does make mistakes. When making an unprotected left, it might start to go because it thinks it can beat the oncoming traffic, then hesitate or stop and leave you in an awkward (but not dangerous) position. -I once had it scrape a wheel pretty badly while pulling into a driveway.
The auto Youtuber savagegeese said it's better than 70% of drivers, and I think that's accurate. |

I am also physically and mentally blown the fuck out by the end of every day. Is FSD for me? (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5904046&forum_id=2#50136677) |

Date: September 15th, 2026 11:05 AM Author: S'mores-flavored cold brew (gunneratttt) It's pretty amazing and works incredibly well. You have to take control if there are irregular traffic patterns and it does have occasional hiccups, but 99%+ it's faultless.
The only people who shit on it are either anti-Musk or anti-technology types. I don't think it's possible for an unbiased person to use it and not think it works very well. |

Date: September 15th, 2026 1:19 PM Author: S'mores-flavored cold brew (gunneratttt) It's notcibly improved over time but it happens slow enough that you don't really notice a difference outside of major updates. For example Mad Max mode is a huge improvement in navigating in cities. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5904046&forum_id=2#50136702) |

personally i never want to be a passenger. need to be in control. sitting back while the machine takes control seemed like the literal most soyboy thing that could possibly happen |

Date: September 15th, 2026 12:59 PM Author: Gay Grandpa Try driving minimum 250 miles per day. And 700a few times per month, averaging 80k miles per year. Is it worth sacrificing your health? (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5904046&forum_id=2#50136688) |

Date: September 15th, 2026 1:03 PM Author: S'mores-flavored cold brew (gunneratttt) Idk faggot do you feel emasculated replacing the mechanical act of walking with an automobile?
See what I mean about only anti-techmos hating it? When you want to drive for fun you can and I often do. But no, I don't feel emasculated letting my car drive itself during my commute to the office. Do you feel poor having to manually drive on a congested road while I POAST? |

I am literally salivating at the thought of double-billing this class of obnoxious 3.5-hour trips I sometimes have to make for a certain set of cases.

Date: September 15th, 2026 5:44 PM Author: Darnell it's definitely pretty good but far from perfect. the huge caveat is that because it's pretty good, it's nearly impossible for people to pay sustained attention and be prepared to take over in situations when human input is needed. this can lead to catastrophic accidents (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5904046&forum_id=2#50136904) |

Date: September 16th, 2026 6:37 PM Author: .,.,...,..,.,.,:,,:,.,.,:::,...,:,...:..:.,:.::,. I have both a Tesla and a Mach E GT so I can compare BlueCruise. BlueCruise is perfectly comparable on freeways that are mapped. The real difference is that only FSD can get you from point A to point B including city streets. I don't know of another product that can do that.
I'm also pissed at Elon/Tesla since they discontinued the Model S/X. I have no idea what to do when my Plaid gets outside of warranty in 2032. |

Date: September 16th, 2026 6:57 PM Author: .,.,...,..,.,.,:,,:,.,.,:::,...,:,...:..:.,:.::,. You learn what it sucks at. I don't try to have it work parking lots generally. We have a 5 way that it treats as a regular stop sign so I just stop FSD before it hits it. If it is raining really hard I won't risk it.
My car has some cosmetic damage to it. FSD? Nah, wife. |

Date: September 16th, 2026 7:23 PM Author: wait till biggus dickus hears of this It's amazing and better than all humans some of the time and some humans all of the time. Haters include retards who say "yeah but what about that video where a Tesla got stuck behind a parking cone?!?!?!" And MANLY bobbies birdshit with wraparound Oakleys who derive their self worth from driving their F350 Raptor or Bronco. Every situation where people say "oh it can't really handle ___" (heavy rain, complicated busy intersections, crowded parking lots) are also situations where humans are also dogshit. |
