statistics show self driving cars are much safer, soon insurance companies will demand it. Self driving cars never get drunk, or fall asleep, or get distracted texting or have a heart attack. self driving cars can see 360deg at the same time, you cannot. They can communicate with each other, ect....the list goes on and onnothanku
I'm a very late adopter. I've seen myself described in marketing groups about customers for tech as "the laggard" who waits until the tech is necessary. I don't own a cell phone much less a smart one. Just a laggard. Just wait, these high tech cars will be perfectly good when they stop supporting the software and the car freezes up. It pissed me off when I had to replace my perfectly operational computer when XP was no longer supported and safe to use. Our Honda Element is becoming unreliable, not because the engine is wearing out but because those damned expensive sensors are failing. So, great. car can drive itself but I doubt the self driving car will last as long as my 68 VW bug did.statistics show self driving cars are much safer, soon insurance companies will demand it.

That's OK, I found out today that drivers that manually drive their Tesla's are feeding the data used to program Auto Pilot.....You can still do your partI'm a very late adopter.

Oh and fuck Alexa. Won't have it in my house.
I'm a laggard and hate tech but my home is paid for by working in the field of new tech product development. Go figure.

Well it wasn't long ago we had rotary dial phones.....phones have evolved, but automobiles operate like they did 100 years ago.....Full self driving does have me a little stand offish...right now.
I realize we will see the day with self driving vehicles soon. Just would be weird as fuck not having to steer, brake and all the other shit done whilst drivingWell it wasn't long ago we had rotary dial phones.....phones have evolved, but automobiles operate like they did 100 years ago.....
when elevators were first invented you needed an operator to pull a lever at just the right time to stop at the right floor, today you just push a button....I realize we will see the day with self driving vehicles soon.

Hey back in my day " Facetime " was some George Jetson shit. I do embrace technology, but still cautious on its use.when elevators were first invented you needed an operator to throw a lever at just the right time to stop at the right floor, today you just push a button....

Why would it not pass ?i Just bought a 92 Toyota pickup to replace my 88 Toyota pickup that I just couldn’t force to pass emissions
I sold the 88 to some dude for $1200 and he has it listed now for $2200
I hope he gets it all!
Still in the testing stage. Auto pilot does not do thatFull Self Driving Tesla.....
ran rich. adjusted the carb more times than i would like to admit, tried this and that and the other thing but could never get it down low enough to pass. carbs are before my time.Why would it not pass ?
Each to their own.No cell phone...let alone a smart phone ?
my Echo Alexa starts my coffee and cuts on my kitchen lights, and plays jazz music just by me saying good morning. Also have the echo dots working in the bedroom and family room like intercoms. Have the light in family room dim, red, blue, yellow ,bright white just by my saying it. Enjoy playing jeopardy via Alexa. Makes phone calls as well. So much shit that thing can do. Do you have any smart devices in your home ?
Dude get one, then tell me how you don't like it
