Just got word that someone pulled the trigger on the NLR GT Lite through my review — congrats to them 🏁

If you're getting into sim racing but don't have a dedicated room, this foldable rig is worth serious consideration. Holds up well, comfortable to use, and stores away easily.

'Supervised' wasn't in my 2021 FSD contract. The goalposts didn't just move — they erased where they used to be.

5 years, three hardware generations. What I can say with confidence: HW4 IS smoother on back roads. The 2026 cabin is genuinely better. And FSD still hesitates at stop signs just like it always has.

The retroactive FSD contract change hits different when you remember what you actually signed.

I bought FSD in 2021. HW2.5, then HW3, then 6 weeks in a 2026 loaner with HW4. The hardware improved. The cabin on the 2026 is genuinely better. But the contract has been quietly rewritten.

And FSD still can't handle a stop sign without hesitation.

Tesla just retroactively modified FSD purchase agreements to add 'supervised' language that didn't exist when owners originally signed.

I bought FSD in 2021. The promise was full self-driving. Now the contract says something different and it still can't handle a stop sign without hesitation.

5 years of this. HW3 vs HW4 honest breakdown:

Five years in, FSD remains a promising highway assistant that occasionally surprises you — wrapped around a set of quirks that have become very familiar. Hardware 4 didn't change that story. It just told it in a slightly nicer cabin.

Started on HW2.5, free retrofit to HW3, now 6 weeks in a 2026 loaner. Full breakdown:

The 2026 Model 3 cabin is genuinely better — solid door close, thicker glass, ventilated seats that auto-switch between cooling and heating. But the softer suspension trades driver engagement for comfort. If you liked the 2018's planted feel in corners, you'll notice what's gone.

6 weeks in an 800-mile loaner. Full honest take:

Just published: 5 years of Tesla FSD — HW2.5, HW3, and now HW4. My 2018 hit 180k miles and ended up in the shop, so I spent 6 weeks in an 800-mile 2026 Model 3 loaner. Honest owner take on what improved and what didn't.

Short version: the cabin is genuinely better. FSD still argues with you at stop signs.
