What, no ultrasound for us?

My worst case scenario would be... I drive South for about two hours, arriving in San Diego for the annual gathering ”Comic Con”. At this point I should have about 70% of my charge remaining. Then, I drive around for approximately four more days looking for a parking space large enough for the...

Easy to take a card, soak it in lacquer thinner and pull out the tag and antenna, then, you could sew it into a shirt, build it into your watch and, or maybe sew it into your shoelace?

A joystick would be so easy to accidentally bump and send the car into another lane or braking hard while driving on the freeway, etc. Once the car is autonomous, it could work by being only able to over-ride with a button press of some additional action for manual driving. Still, seems like it...

Well, if you are pushing/pulling a motor that is engaged, it starts generating power. So, if a Tesla fails and needs to be towed (or one motor out of two fails) and you start rolling that “bad” motor, the electricity generated needs somewhere to go. If it pumps back into your battery, what...

Heck, I used to grab the passenger side handle when making a hard right turn, just for stability. Funny, this topic reminded me of that, but I can’t remember what car that was! Maybe the Mini Cooper S?

I really like the yoke style steering wheel on the Cybertruck prototype, but I realize that it is not entirely practical for everyday driving. I like the new Audi steering wheel, it has some style to it, but still looks practical. I don’t know what else is out there that might be a contender...

Well, because I am driving! Seriously, I would expect a screen in front of the passenger to be smaller and mounted above/behind the airbag like the model S screen that is in front of the driver. If it couldn’t be done safely, I would also be against it. maybe It pops up, mirroring the drop...

I like the look of it, but agree it is too much screen. Being able to change color palettes, font size and have a small binnacle (like the model S) in front of the driver with user selectable information would be great. And, as much as I love the controls at the arm rest, a touch screen there is...

Well, if they bought zero, to produce their cyber quads, I could see that, or maybe another electric vehicle manufacturer if one comes up with a great innovation. Otherwise, I agree, Elon was being polite and it makes little sense for Tesla since converting ab existing factory to one optimized...

LOL! Yeah... “Well, the accident would have been survivable if not for the steering screen decapitation...”

Stainless steel is not magnetic. For the Mandalorian stickers, check out fanwraps.com They now also make stick-on passengers! https://fanwraps.com/product/passenger-series-boba-fett/ I like going with the rusted accents and subtle look more like a ship in the Star Wars universe than a bunch of...

I would put the truck into chilled wimp mode if I was loaning it or if one of my kids was going to drive it.

That’s a good point. Of course, that also argues for something like the HUD, which - at least in theory- keeps your focus out over the road (or at least the hood).

Well, since Tesla is battery-constrained at the moment, I think the OP‘s kit might nor have them. Here’s what I am thinking. Please forgive me ifs some or all of these have been posted, I admit I red the first few posts and then wrote this. solar roof, for sure specs for a hardwired connection...

Yes, that crowd might like having controls at hand, as well as data. I’m am not thinking of an “us” v.s. “Them” with regards to asking about features other vehicles are getting (or have already). I like having steering wheel controls, I have had them on Mini, BMW, Volvo, Mercedes, Subaru and...

Okay, so if someone made an aftermarket kit to retrofit a HUD, where would it plug in? Do Teslas have an ODB-II port? Certainly not for emissions, but to connect to the car’s computer? Is there a different or proprietary port Tesla uses to interface with vehicles? Or is it all wireless? Maybe...

I would think the solar panel would be embedded in the glass of the roof. Maybe that would compromise the strength of the roof too much?

I would love to see this in a pdf or an .ai file! Thanks gor making this :-)

Yeah, I would appreciate more, hidden storage, maybe a small vault to store a sentry cam SSD? I think the chain, towing hitch, gloves, etc. might be better stowed in the lower rear vault storage... not sure I was really heavy stuff in the center console. A place for glasses, for sure.
