If you use FrogPilot (works best for GM cars), it makes the driving experience much more pleasant on long highway drives.
There is a mode where the lateral control will keep you in the lane while you can still use the accelerator/brake or one-pedal. If you have an older model, it can still do it but you'll need what's called a "comma pedal" to make it work.

- The base parts cost of $575.
- This will be marked up 0%.
- There will be a $0/0-minute physical install, and that's before flashing.
I feel like you've never paid to have car work done before... Like ever. If you did it yourself, absolutely $575 OTD, but if you go to any mechanic it will EASILY go over $1K based on the pricing you yourself provided. Your argument is that mechanics/dealerships work for free, which isn't my experience.
When my car was in the shop, they gave me a '24 Soltera as a loaner. Even that LKA was enough to make that commute that much better. I can't wait for the gifted folks at github can get this to work properly on my car!
If your car is one of the hundreds they support, you plug it into your car and it will essentially drive your car for you to a certain extent.
It is run by a well known computer programmer and former hacker: https://wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Hotz

Loved the device because
1. I don't need to put my hands on steering wheel
2. It does very well on hwy (level 2 autonomy)
3. My commute was 80 miles round trip on hwy in LA area where I can pretty much free up my time to do something else.
I won't buy again because
My experience with newer vehicles' adaptive cruise/lane keep/lane center/ etc (2022+ Hyundai, Toyota, Honda) performed well enough that I don't think spending another 1100 is worth it.
I would 100% buy again if I drive an older car though.
The biggest difference from the factory system is the steering wheel nag, and better quality/performance.
Steering wheel nag - the factory system forces you to yank your steering wheel every X seconds or it yells at you. This is meant to ensure the driver is awake, but it's mostly super annoying that I have to constantly tug at the steering wheel to appease it. In flat/straight roads, the factory system was worse than a mother nagging their teenager, there was no need to tug at the steering wheel cuz there were no turns! With the Comma you can simply pay attention to the road and the other cars without being nagged. It's hard to understand how mentally taxing this is until you have a long drive with the Comma. My record is 214 miles without touching the steering wheel (2am interstate drive). Note - the cabin facing camera is constantly watching the driver, so it will yell and disable itself if it sees you not paying attention. It's quite accurate for me, and seems safer and more proactive than forcing the driver to jerk the steering wheel every 15 seconds.
Performance/quality upgrade - my 2021 factory LKAS was pretty decent on the interstate with solid lines, but it is still helpless if the lines are bad, and I forget if it worked at all when wipers came on. I have driven in driving rain at night and even a blizzard, and the Comma camera is simply better at seeing the road than I am. I look at the road and see snowflake reflections and struggle to see anything else, if I glance up at the Comma, it can clearly see the road lines. Maybe it's cuz HDR or cuz polarized lens, all I know is that it sees better than me. It doesn't try to jerk me into exit ramps like the factory system. It also reduces the minimum speed required to start LKAS, so it actually makes bumper-to-bumper traffic on the freeway on my work commute easier. My Hyundai still uses it's own radar for speed/braking, but the Comma is still a huge improvement. I'm running the stock firmware.
Tesla FSD will brake for stop lights, stop signs, it provides enough torque to the steering wheel to never have to put your hands on the wheel, it will even turn from a dead stop. It also turns on your turn signals, has active avoidance, and many other things that Comma.AI does not have.
I am not sure if you are just making things up and are a fanboi, but I have no clue where you even came up with your blatantly false statement.

I have a 2020 Hyundai Kona. I'm tempted to get this even though my car does not full compatibility (cannot do stop and go; lower limit is 6mph). I have a long daily commute so it might serve me well. I'm sure I'll enjoy it. But then I think how long am I going to keep the car? I might upgrade in a few years and then what? Am I really to choose the next car based on device compatibility? Not likely — too many other considerations go into a car purchase. So this might be paperweight in 2 or 3 years. My wife is leaning towards buying the 2025 Hyundai Santa Fe. But who knows whether it'll be supported and to what extent. I do realize this device is much better than the systems in cars today. But is it going to be that much better than the new systems in cars 2-3 yrs from now? Fans of this product might not like to hear it, but the fact is that unfortunately, there is a bit too much uncertainty involved with this purchase.
