My Tesla picked me up at the curb. This feature is called Actually Smart Summon and is used in parking lots. Heavy items to carry? Is it pouring outside, or do you have a gaggle of kids? No problem! I overlayed the screen recording from my phone so you can see the app displayed.

I'm amazed people will avoid an EV becuase they take long trips 2X a year, yet stop weekly for gas (waiting in long Costco lines to save a buck) when you can easily charge at home. Then there's the time wasted on emissions inspections, oil changes, etc. There's no range issue

12.5.1 1st impressions. Gone is the lane indecisiveness, too-slow approach to red lights and stop signs, and any wheel-jerkiness present in 12.3.6. Auto speed was perfection. There used to be how FSD drove, and how I drove. Now, the difference is almost imperceptible.
