It presents on the screen. It does not activate. My wife had subscribed to the Tesla MyQ app for a month and we decided to drop it. It's not for everybody. For one, operation was spotty. I would expect that that has improved by now. But, more importantly, we have large dogs. Having the gate automatically open as we approach could have...ummm...complications.
Just be careful with that. I turned the option off of my Tesla when it automatically closed on me when my wife pulled on to the court. You can't see the garage door from the entrance to the court.
Just wondering...how far apart are your gate and garage and what's the topography? Mine are about 20' apart and straight away.
I'm not using MyQ. My Model S has an actual Homelink transmitter built into the car with the option to program 3 devices. I've used this for going on 10 years, first with my mid-2016 MS 90D and the past 2+ years on my Dec '23 MS LR.
I understand the caution, but I've been using it for close to 10 years with no issues. I have it set to open when I'm 70ft from the garage, so it triggers as I approach the driveway where I can see it opening. I have had issues at times if our kid's car is parked in the side pull-out of the drive that it may do a double trigger and door will start to open then stop. I had that same issue with Homelink on a Honda Odyssey, so it think it's more a signal reflection issue. Either way I have clear line of sight with sufficient warning.
No and I wouldn’t want it to
About 20 yards. It’s pretty sensitive geo, because the road then goes around the gate and the Homelink pops up again
Nobody got time for that!I like that version better - I've programmed the steering wheel button to be homelink - I wouldn't want to have to reach aaaallll that way to the Clearview panel to push a button.
I think Lucid provides an appealing alternative to a Model S. But do keep in mind that the 3.0 version of Lucid's software is less than a year on the market, and what you see people talking about here today is probably going to be very different from what the software provides in four years.
It does change the order so the one you’re closest to is at the top when it presents it, and sometimes it gets rid of any that aren’t nearby entirely when presenting it.
“Range spider”
I'm sort of liking "amoeba blob". Wish we could edit labels...
Understand. A lot can change in four years, just like Tesla could reverse it's position and bring out a new Model S equivalent by that time. But also possible that my replacement timeline could suddenly change if something unfortunate were to happen like getting caught up in an accident and my car getting totaled. That's part of the reason I've decided to start following alternatives a little more closely just in case.
Yeah, I think that everyone here is really hoping and expecting that Lucid will greatly expand their service locations and the size of their service team. Right now they're struggling in part because the new(ish) Gravity is having some teething pains. But even if they resolve some factory and software issues and streamline support for the Gravity, It's a bit hard to imagine how they can successfully support larger volumes of vehicles without a bigger service organization.
It’s mostly AAOS…I do like the themes tho.
I was insulting my Apple Maps yesterday only to realize I had turned a block early and was in the wrong parking lot.
