Reporting on the industrialization of Tesla Cybertruck 🇺🇸 📐 Foundation Series Cybertruck #38,598 + Model Y owner in Grand Rapids 👍

Just paid off my Cybertruck, less than two years after taking original delivery. 🥳 In 2024, purchasing a $100k vehicle made me pucker. Our payment was well over a thousand bucks. For the last 2-3 years, I've been aggressively building my digital marketing & videography business, and 6 months ago I quit my job and dove in full-time. While both purchasing a $100k truck and quitting my job were both insane risks at the time, we've been unquestionably blessed with sustained business and endless work. Late nights and working weekends to create content, build websites, photograph events, write articles, film weddings, you name it. I now own my Cybertruck exclusively, free and clear. Blessed.

Curious your thoughts on this one. FSD did not react at all to vehicles squealing their tires and swerving out of the way. This is a pinch point in the highway where two lanes merge. I mashed the brakes to avoid being involved in the mess, which allowed another driver to use my spot to avoid a potential rear ending. I saw folks slamming the brakes far earlier than I pressed the brakes and waited for FSD to react. It did not.

Rear axle steering is one of my favorite features on Cybertruck but I never get to see it in action. Here is Mrs. Cybertruck Guy pulling out of our driveway. It's tight, usually a 2-point turn. Rear Axle steering is a work of art. Hang it in the Louvre.

Has nobody at Tesla Charging noticed that the entirety of I-90 in South Dakota is still 120kW and 150kW Superchargers? Unusual.

Have you ever noticed this little moving part on Cybertruck’s sun visors? And I’m not talking about the magnetic plunger. The engineering on this truck is wild!

FSD V14 has one major new regression— swerving at high speeds for fake road obstacles. In this case, it was a bridge. On camera, this looks minor. But, at 80mph, you can see my immediate reaction & attention snapping back to catch the wheel. It was alarming.

Well, this one is confusing. Tonight while getting out of my truck, my shoe caught the edge of the seat trim, ripping it from its fastener. Now I can’t snap it back into place. 🫡 I haven’t investigated a fix yet, but am open to suggestions 😏

Is CyberFSD the only one that you can nudge left and right with the wheel? I just noticed this. By applying pressure to the wheel, I can make the truck hug the lane markers, and in some cases, cause it to change lanes sooner. Maybe you can see it in this video:

WOW v14.3.2 is very decisive and is able to execute with great confidence. Big fan. That said, in my first drive it messed up *spectacularly* twice in <15 miles of suburban driving. In one instance, it swerved out of its through lane of traffic into a lane that was ending, right as it was ending. It was not trying to overtake any vehicles, it just swerved over violently. ugh The other, in the video below, it did not consider that the left lane was turn-only, and tried to use it overtake other vehicles while their light was red. (this intersection begins with left turn green and through-lanes red) It is still very slow to merge into the proper lane in time for a turn, and ended up cutting off a large truck to make its turn. Could it have completed its maneuvers and continued without intervention? Yes. Would it be safe or legal to do so? No. Plenty of work left to do on FSD.

Broseph came up behind me on an on-ramp, merged over a lane, then decided to box me in and not let me merge. Then he thought some styrofoam would hurt my feelings 🤣😭😂

FSD 14.2 STUNS IN WINTER DRIVING! Just got done driving ~100 miles on a snowy interstate and a little suburban driving. A few notes: FSD absolutely, definitively detects snow as a separate substance from rain. As the snow began to fall, there came a point where FSD first detected the snow and immediately slowed. From then on, it drove in a *completely different profile*. Generally, V14.2 kept 40-55mph on a 70mph interstate. When driving in Sloth/Chill and you try to increase the speed profile to Standard/Hurry, the truck displays a red error saying inclement weather is preventing FSD from speeding up. Fantastic! V14.2 takes corners slow as molasses to keep traction. It does NOT shoot gaps and pull out in front of other vehicles. V14.2 waits for BIG gaps to make its merge into traffic. It is properly cautious! One instance of Red Hands occurred when it was merging into a center left turn lane. This center lane was the only lane not plowed, so either 1. it got confused with lane markings or 2. Slid sideways very slightly and got upset. On straightaways on the interstate in areas with little snow coverage, V14.2 would speed up close to the speed limit. While the roads were wet today from road treatment, I was concerned for slick & frozen areas and manually backed off on the speed. While not technically unsafe, I did this out of an abundance of caution. IMO this is a grey area between "driving safely" and "not driving how I do" lol Not much ice today. Just snow and slush. ***Tonight, 6-12 inches of fresh snow is forecasted to fall here. I'll be out at dawn tomorrow to test in worse conditions with less traffic.*** Stay tuned.
