Is nobody gonna mention this horrible KITT steering wheel?!? That damn thing is dangerous.

They also don't ship with the yoke by default anymore, the default is a regular round one and have been for a while.

Yeah round wheels are not a fuckin style choice. It’s so you can grab it anywhere in any situation. This steering wheel looks fuckin deadly

It’s a yoke because top tier race cars use yokes and Elon thinks his teslas are that for some reason. Completely disregarding all the setup and engineering race cars have that make a yoke the more viable option than a wheel…

They are the worst drivers by infractions. Dead wheel is a culling tool.

You can’t even grab 10:00 and 2:00 on it. Looks like the closest you can get is 4:00 and 8:00

10 and 2 is actually no longer taught. 9 and 3 is the new thing

Or 8 and 4.

Keep those arms away from the airbag's path

Ever seen what real life F1 car steering “wheels” look like?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

They aren't meant for public roads, just like Teslas.
