Self driving is being slow-rolled by the government in the name of safety.

No, it's not close to ready, and that's not just a government defined pronouncement

CSoul

What other company has self driving cars? I'll wait.

Self Driving with full government approval to drive anywhere? Zero!

Individual words can be very important when you are trying to argue a point. "BUT he also"

Taking advantage of government incentives isn't luck.

Uh, yes it is luck to be at that point of time. It wasn't luck to take advantage of it. I'm a business owner myself

😂 SpaceX has done more in under 20 years for space travel than NASA in 80!

Tio

SpaceX is doing some great things but...NASA landed 6 separate missions on the moon, sent 24 astronauts to the moon,

I have one linked example, but pretty much every major promise. Self-driving, Tesla semi, roadster, solar panels

Have you driven with fsd? It’s amazing. No one else is anywhere close.

Swish

Yes, it's cool. Has tons of limitations. Doesn't have many safety benefits over stopping and lane assist.

CSoul

FSD is awesome. . . I would say it is too good to ignore.

Zoobieman

It will grow exponentially in capability. It’s the worse it will ever be right
