Thursday Afternoon Pause for a Dunedin Tesla Saturday
Thursday, October 29, 2026
9 days to go
Halfway through the afternoon is a fine time to look ahead. Tesla's at Cars & Coffee and Lunch Convoy is set for Saturday, November 7, 2026, at VFW Post 2550, 360 Douglas Ave, Dunedin, FL 34698.
Cars & Coffee runs from 7:30 AM to 10 AM, and the VFW serves up an amazing breakfast beginning at 8:00 AM. At 9 AM the Teslas gather as one group for the inaugural EV and Tesla debut at the VFW's monthly show, and all types of vehicles are welcome to join the lineup.
Want to see what Full Self Driving (Supervised) really does, or how Actually Smart Summon pulls a car out of its spot and over to its owner? Tesla owners will host free FSD demos and free Actually Smart Summon demos in their own @Tesla vehicles and answer whatever you ask.
This one is family friendly from start to finish. There is a playground for the kids, free garlic dill pickles for everyone, and easy bike access from the Pinellas Trail.
At 10:30 AM the convoy heads toward Honeymoon Island, a beautiful @FLStateParks spot, for lunch at Cricketers British Pub from 11 AM to 1 PM.
Ski & Odin are hosting, and each guest helps support VFW Post 2550. @TeslaFamOrlando, a little over a week is plenty of time to plan the drive west.
RSVP free during your afternoon break: scan the QR code in the picture, or type Tesla's at Cars & Coffee and Lunch Convoy into the Eventbrite search bar.

Friday, October 30, 2026
@DigitalDaisyX: Halloween mode has Daisy wondering whether to sleep with the lights on tonight.
@MTNTrailDonkey: A Model Y Performance became a jump scare machine in the right hands and spooked the whole gym parking lot.
@mirthtime: The kids in the back seat lose it every time Halloween mode does its thing.
@lenscn: Owners everywhere share the same haunted garage, where the car sees phantom trucks and people in an empty room.
@McJohnnymac: Grok said Halloween mode was not on the FSD software branch yet, while this Model 3 was already showing ghosts and skeletons trick or treating.
@Fer_t3sla: A 2022 Intel car missed out on Halloween mode, so Fernando made it a costume by hand.
@ada369jp: From Japan: tap the moon and a witch flies by, tap the grave and a ghost pops up. This owner found every hidden scare in Halloween mode.

2/3 Family, owners and FSD life
@TeslaJoy: Sipping a protein shake on the 405 freeway, Tesla Joy spotted a Cybertruck driver twisting open a shake too and knew right away that truck was on FSD.
@MarsHomestead: A husband went quiet while camping in the desert in the Tesla, so Mars flashed the lights and honked through the app. The phone finally rang. He was just flying his drone.
@JM_speakss: A bitcoin saver stressed all day over buying a Model Y until a friend pointed out it was really an FSD purchase and the car comes with it.
@willfleming: The wife test: once Will's wife tried FSD for the first time, Will could not get the car back.
@EngAzamSalman: After a Model Y test drive in San Antonio, a 3 year old cried because the family left HIS Tesla behind at the store.
@Hyfly11: Every time a 5 year old in the family sees the Cybertruck, there is only one request: show me the back wheels turn.
@GrumpyTesla_: Why buy a Cybertruck when a horse and buggy was technically the original FSD?
@CKEVS1998: A baby brother who is usually Tesla's biggest fan was not impressed at all by the Halloween update.

3/3 Around the world and robots
@robotinreallife: In Bratislava, Slovakia, FSD (Supervised) kept eyeing the wrong side of a keep right sign in the middle of a street where a Model Y could never fit.
@RotersZ: A creator in Japan matched every Tesla model to an Uma Musume racehorse character, with the Cybertruck as the one who loves straight lines.
@TMo21x: Australians waited 7 years for a Cybertruck and got a refund plus a free year of FSD, which TeslaTati calls a breakup text with a gift card.
@mick6594: From Brisbane, Michael is not shocked the Cybertruck was dropped for Australia, since it was never going to fit in a Westfield car park.
@TeslaOneClub: A walk around the Tesla Diner shows the building is basically a giant Cybertruck.
@msunc1985: An AI made clip of Optimus baking Elon a blueberry pie, and it does not go as planned.
@BinPeng22: In Benjamin's AI made clip, a Cybercab turns into Optimus to fly ahead like Superman, then takes off in the opposite direction.
@twotitles12: From Fleetwood, England: whoever designed Halloween mode deserves the biggest bonus ever, because it brightened the whole work week.

Six months in, is Premium worth it
Owner Bromar (@BromarBuilt) posted on Oct 29 an honest take on what the extra $10K for the Premium @cybertruck gets you, six months in, in Phoenix.
The rear screen gets daily use from his nephew and nieces, and his girlfriend uses it on long trips with the dogs. The Vault holds a spare charger and cleaning supplies. Air suspension on auto lifts and lowers on its own.
His verdict: pay it again only if you will really use the differences. He has not towed yet, so the 11,000 lb rating has not mattered for him.

Tesla Outdoors Gear

Fridge warm by morning at camp? The @Tesla Model Y Dual Zone Fridge, $595, runs off the trunk 12V outlet, and that outlet shuts off when the car sleeps. Before bed turn on Camp Mode, or Controls then Charging then Keep Accessory Power On, which holds power until about 20 percent battery. Owners say the outlet can trip after days of nonstop use, so pre chill it at home. Out of stock at last check.

Classic Garlic Dill Pickle 🥒
Friday, Oct 30, 2026
Brine in bulk, mixed cold
1 gallon water
1 gallon vinegar (1/1)
1 cup canning salt
1/2 cup light raw cane sugar
Makes 2 gallons, about 8 quarts of brine. Stir it cold and keep it close while you fill the jars.
Per quart of brine
2 cups water
2 cups vinegar
2 tablespoons canning salt
1 tablespoon light raw cane sugar
Plan on about 2 cups of brine for each packed quart jar, so one quart of brine covers about 2 jars.
Per quart jar
1 large fresh dill sprig (get from produce market)
3 cloves garlic, whole, smashed, or chopped
6 to 10 black peppercorns
A pinch of red pepper flakes
Optional
Mustard seed and bay leaf. I don't usually use them, but they give a classic taste people like, and bay leaves can help keep pickles crunchy.
Always
Cut the blossom (flower bud) end off each cucumber. It has enzymes that can soften pickles.
Steps
1. Mix the cold brine and set it aside.
2. Add the dill, garlic, peppercorns, and red pepper to each clean plastic or glass quart container.
3. Pack the cucumbers, sliced or whole, into the containers.
4. Pour brine over until fully covered.
5. Cover and refrigerate 2 to 3 days, sampling daily.
Layer tip
In a large container (about 6 quarts), pack wholes on the bottom, then halves, then chunks, then slices on top. Start eating from the top, because the slices are ready first.

Caraway Apple Pickled Red Cabbage
The night before Halloween calls for a jar that glows. Shredded red cabbage and crisp apple matchsticks soak in a warm caraway cider brine and turn a bright magenta overnight. Pile it on sausages, sandwiches, tacos, or a cheese board for sweet, tangy crunch.
Ingredients for one quart jar
1/2 small red cabbage (about 1 pound), cored and shredded thin
1 small tart apple, cored and cut into thin matchsticks
1/4 small red onion, sliced thin
1 cup apple cider vinegar
1 cup water (1/1)
2 tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons canning salt
1 teaspoon caraway seed
1/2 teaspoon black peppercorns
1 bay leaf
2 whole cloves

3/3
Pack Tight, Pour Warm
Method
1. Toss the cabbage, apple, and red onion together in a large bowl.
2. Bring the vinegar, water, sugar, salt, caraway, peppercorns, bay leaf, and cloves to a simmer, stirring until the sugar and salt dissolve.
3. Let the brine cool for about 10 minutes so it is warm, not boiling.
4. Pack the cabbage mix firmly into a clean quart jar, pressing it down as you go.
5. Pour the warm brine over until everything is covered, press out any air bubbles, let it cool, then cap and refrigerate.
Storage
It is ready in 1 day and tastes best after 3 days, when the color turns deep magenta. Keep it refrigerated and eat within about 3 weeks.
