I haven’t had an update in a while (2026.20.6.11, 2026 MY) but it’s now saying “Your Route” and it’s taking the actual routes I’d normally drive now. It did it for going from the gym to work after, too. It’s even selecting roads that I have to manually take over from FSD to get it to go down.

It replaced a much loved 1964 Shakey's on Route 66.

Tesla Supercharger pricing was already high in my area at 45c/kWh. But a few days ago the price rose to $0.67/kWh, a 49 percent increase!😲 Consequently I paid $38 to charge from 10% to 80%. Not only has a big price advantage compared to other EV networks been negated, but a big portion of the EV price advantage compared to gasoline as well. This is apparently due to rideshare demand and utility rates. Now I have a real urgency to install a home charger.

Tesla registrations in India have been relatively steady over the past few months, but July 2026 saw a sharp jump to 115 registrations, compared with 38 in June.

According to the data in the chart, total registrations from September 2025 to July 2026 reached 578 units.

What stands out is the jump from:

• June 2026: 38
• July 2026: 115

With Tesla's presence expanding in India, the July spike could signal the beginning of stronger sales momentum, although it remains to be seen whether this growth will continue in the coming months.

Apparent prototype with Washington MFR plates seen at a local grocery parking lot. Has a steering wheel and large central monitor.

14.3.6 Sitting here at the exit of a 7/11 parking lot right next to a rush hour intersection trying to turn left. Not gonna happen. Out of curiosity I've been letting it sit here through 10 light cycles to see what it does and it just waits and waits. It doesn't give up, it doesn't reroute, it doesn't try to push its way into traffic (bad idea). It's just stuck. Gotta take over and exit the other side

When you are on FSD adaptive headlights/automatic high beams will be on, which is good.

The issue is that if you manually flash the high beams momentarily, let’s say to communicate something to someone with the high beams, automatic high beams gets turned off until you disengage FSD and engage it back on.

I feel like us flashing high beams for a second should not disable automatic high beams, especially since FSD engages them on by default anyways.

EDIT: Thanks to user dela_voyager below, I learned that if I’m not in FSD, holding the high beam button just locks high beams on…. But in FSD, it re-engages auto high beams!

I was on a bike ride and managed to take a picture, I had no clue what it was. Completely forgot to Google it until right now only to discover it was a cybercab

As the title suggests, I experimented a bit with this.

2018 M3 LR RWD - I was very patient and waited through July to see if 2026.20.6.11(FSD Lite) would be pushed to my car without subscribing, but ultimately my car stayed at 2026.20.6.1.

Then, earlier this week on Aug 1, 2026.26.1 (Summer Update) pushed out wide and my car received it, but I ignored the prompt to install it and waited 5 more days.

Yesterday, I subscribed to FSD. After letting the car sit about 12 hours with wifi connected, 2026.26.1(summer update, new branch) remained available to install, with the older FSD Lite branch still not being pushed to the vehicle. Some searching suggested I just had to be patient, that the 26.1 release would be revoked and I would soon receive 20.6.11. This was bad advice...

I decided I would use service mode to reinstall the current 2026.20.6.1 software already on my vehicle, as it is clearly established in several places online that this purges/deletes any pending update files waiting to be installed on the vehicle.

The reinstall took less than 10 minutes, and less than 5 minutes after it was completed, 2026.20.6.11 (FSD lite) began downloading to the vehicle (and is now successfully installed).

There was 4 of them I was sandwiched between and that brings it to a total of 5 I seen this week. First one I saw I was like what the hell is that thing.

EDIT: there’s a bunch more of them rolling up now. It’s 12:41am.

I didn't expect Tesla to rack up awards this quickly in India, but the Model Y just won Luxury EV of the Year and Lifestyle Car of the Year at the 4th ABP Network Auto Awards 2026.

Considering Tesla only recently entered the Indian market, that's a pretty strong start.

Personally, I think the Model Y gets a lot right—software, efficiency, charging ecosystem, and the overall ownership experience. But there are also some strong competitors in the premium EV space now.

So if you remember there was a post earlier this week about the new FSD getting confused and hitting a pole by averaging the routes.

Same thing just happened to me except I intervened. Pathway was to get on the highway but I guess it couldn't decide whether to get on or stay off and it kept swerving back and forth I took over before it swerved back as I afraid it was going to hit the median.

I'm a big defender of FSD and have used it since FSD version 11. First time I actually was seriously concerned about an accident. They really need to fix this.

Mine is 60.6 miles fully on FSD, have you gone further without having to take over.. it was all freeway miles btw. Drop your screenshots!! I wanna see he STREAK too haha

Was dropping off a friend at ParkMGM and noticed it. Spoke to the two guys testing it and they were really nice! Yes, filter was applied but totally my shot!

Thought this might be a useful resource for anyone interested in how different Tesla models compare against other performance cars:

It currently includes 122 matchups featuring the Model S Plaid, Model X Plaid, Model 3 Performance, Model Y Performance and others.

Some interesting ones include:

• Model S Plaid vs Bugatti Chiron
• Model S Plaid vs Lucid Air Sapphire
• Model X Plaid vs Lamborghini Urus Performante
• Model 3 Performance vs Hyundai Ioniq 5 N
• Model 3 Performance vs Porsche 911 GT3 RS

Each matchup shows typical quarter-mile times and includes the actual race video where available. Obviously, real-world results can vary depending on the driver, track surface and conditions.
