Supercruise doesn't work on local roads, drive assist does. I can keep my pinky on the wheel and give it the slightest pressure every few minutes when prompted. This is a God send in stop and go city traffic. I used to have super high stress in traffic every day, now I let the Tesla do all the stop and go braking/keeping distance and it's way less stressful

In what world does hands free include keeping your hands on the wheel?

In what world does touching your pinky on a wheel ever minute or more qualify has tightly gripping your hands at 9' and 3'oclock position. I get it you hate elon.me too. I still think the Tesla gives me a driving experience very few if not anyone else can replicate, especially on local roads. No one has been able to dispute me on that besides some dude that quoted the new Mercedes that launched this year. That sounds like Mercedes trying to keep up with tesla, not the reverse

Elon is a douche nozzle, does that make you feel better? Have you ever actually driven a Tesla thru city traffic ?

Hands-free by definition requires no hands. You are using terminology that is incorrect on the internet. Expect to be corrected.

Everything else you replied to me is you being super defensive. I never stated anything else other than what you are taking about is technically not hands-free.
