Tesla: please add a "follow them" feature on FSD

By ShadowDrift987 · QUESTION · About Tesla Model Y

I have a 2026 model Y with FSD. I was following a friend to a social function. His car and my car were both full of people. It was about two hours of driving, mostly on the interstate. He had his cruise control (not Tesla) set at 67 mph. My Tesla doesn't have a normal "cruise control", which drives me crazy sometimes. I put it in FSD and the "chill setting" wanted to go 65 mph and the "standard" wanted to go 69 mph (and pass him). This obviously made it impossible to follow my friend in FSD. I would like to be able to click on the image of the car in front of me on the FSD screen and have the option to "follow them" until I tell it to stop. Match their speed and take all the same turns.

ZenPanda516: I assume you got your car before autosteer was removed. When you are stopped, disable FSD and use AP. It will be perfect for this scenario (freeway, no lane changes).

HappyFox759: I miss the minimize lane changes button.

SwiftMaker952: Can't you use tacc

StormVibe941: A follow that car feature would be very useful as part of FSD.
