The car is returned now, but as far as I can remember, it I thought it had full autopilot based on the options, including the ability to enable autopilot during navigation. However, the release notes say it is in beta and not meant to be used on local roads.

Gotcha. What I meant is it won't make turns at intersections.

The area of NJ I live is overflowing with Teslas of all makes. OTOH, I received my MME in March and haven't seen a second one until a couple weeks ago. So yeah, the Mustang does stand out and I've frequently had people stop me to ask questions about it*. Almost everyone is surprised that it...

Doesn't shock me. Granted, my only actual experience with Tesla's build quality is a sample size of 1. But, that combined with lots of similar complaints I came across during research leads me to believe my brother in law's was not a rare isolated case.

The last time I drove an autopilot enabled Tesla was shortly after the feature was first rolling out. I'm not sure if it has changed, but there are two things to note: 1. Auto-steering only works on highways right now. It will change lanes and take the correct exits automatically. On regular...

He was one of the early adopters of the Model S and reserved one before they were released. They started shipping in mid 2012 if I remember, but his didn't arrive until January or February of 2013.

The Mach E is the most comfortable driver seat that I've ever sat in. It feels slightly extra cushiony compared to the rest of the cars I've been in. My wife says the same about the passenger seat. In fact, we both immediately noticed that the first time we sat in our Mustang. I've driven...

I was kind of surprised about how choppy the interface is, but again, I leased this knowing it was a 1st gen product and would have lots of room for improvement. One problem Ford faces is that it isn't exactly the kind of company that would attract top talent in terms of UX design and...

Yup, according to the release notes, they added that feature last year.

Apparently they are. He got the Model X and the Model Y in the same month.

My brother-in-law/boss has a lemon of a Tesla Model S* he got back in early 2013. Since the thing is frequently in the shop, he gets loaners that he'll let me drive. So far, I've driven multiple Model S, a Model X, and most recently a Model 3. The more recent loaners had autopilot, and the...

I don't know if they changed it after I applied but I received the NJ $5000 rebate check last week.

I switched from Google Maps to Apple Maps full time starting last year, and haven't had any problems with it in the NY/NJ/PA areas. It is much better than it was for the first 5 or so years of its life.

I just got my check today.

I ended up disabling it since it wasn't particularly good at guessing where I'm going. Also...Car play.
