    Curious. I backed my car up earlier and it was super easy. Didn’t drown, didn’t need to break a window to save myself. Maybe I’m just infinitely smarter.

        Because I’m too busy thinking of ways to not drown in a pond.

          during a gold rush, don’t be a gold miner, be a not-drowning-in-ponds-advice seller

      Making a three point turn in a newer model x requires tapping on a touchscreen to shift between drive and reverse.

      There’s also an optional “smart” feature that’s supposed to automatically switch into either drive or reverse but because it uses cameras and not ultrasonic sensors shadows often confuse it.

          If you got the time to watch a video on it, it’s from a stan but despite his praise (well mostly) it’s a pretty good demonstration of how absolutely ridiculous it is now.
          Either swiping on the side of the screen, relying on a beta feature that doesn’t work well, or touching essentially hidden capacitive “buttons” that by default aren’t lit.

          Edit: this is for the 2021 model S but the 2021+ model X works the same way.

          Yeah I’m not gonna mourn her passing and from context clues she was probably a little drunk. But Tesla still “innovated” out the physical shifter making this sort of thing an inevitability.
