    Version 17.4.14

    75D. AP1. I received the update last night. Showed up yesterday afternoon and downloaded overnight. I have not tried it on the highway. I am hoping for some improvement to autosteer. My car moves all over the lane. Recently it took a dive towards a car on the right. At 70 mph this can be a bit...

    Tesla moments

    So I have had my car here in Tesla barren South Carolina for about 6 weeks and I have been waiting for my Tesla moment. It finally happened. I arrived at the gym and hopped out of the car when a cute guy (I am in very late middle age) asked me about the door handles. Door handles? Really...

    Firmware 8.0

    I truly believe my car is trying to kill me. I have tried AP on highways, wide roads, fast, slow etc. Once engaged, besides the truck lust it moves all over the road. I seem to dive from one side of the road to the other. Is my car unusually dangerous or are others experiencing this as well? I...

    Firmware 8.0

    I was driving South of Asheville on the way to Columbia. Finally gave up on AP due to terrifying swerving and attempting to spear trucks. Do you think it is the lack of system knowledge here on the East Coast?

    Firmware 8.0

    Warnings and such are and issue but I have a greater concern. I updated to 8.0 last Wednesday. This weekend we drove the car to Asheville. We attempted to use the autopilot but it wondered all over the road including diving into the adjacent lane. When switching lane the car would drive off...

    Firmware 8.0

    Took possession of my MS (yeah!). My car sat on the lot for two weeks before pickup. The only car at the dealership that had the update was the show car in the sales area. It seems like it may be a long wait. Geofencing does not seem to give an edge.

    Tesla in South Carolina

    I will be picking up my MS 75D in Charlotte tomorrow. I live in Columbia and have seen three other Tesla Model S's and one Roadster in my area. If you are near Columbia we need to campaign for a super charger in our area.

    8.0 Autopilot rollout

    I am picking up my MS on Saturday. Will my car have 8.0? How do these updates work? Do all cars update at once? Rollout West to East? I will be picking up in NC. Will we ever have It? Thanks for your help.

    Tesla Autopilot v8.0--highway interchanges

    So am I eagerly awaiting the arrival of my MS 75D. As a soon to be owner, I have read extensively the blogs posted here and listened to Talking Tesla, Ride the Lightening etc. and I understand that the upgrade to the autopilot will rely a great deal on the fleet information being provided by...

    Will an 8 year old Model S be almost worthless?

    Putting maintenance issues aside. What about the tech changes? I am seriously considering a lease because the new features will render my MS obsolete in 3 years let alone 8.

    Quality ? For tesla MS owners (past Toyota/Lexus owners)

    As I await my new MS 75D I am preparing to say goodbye to my 2011 Lexus 460LS. It has been an amazing car, not only beautiful, a joy to drive and easy (but expensive) to maintain. I inherited it from my father when he passed away. He loved big cars with lots of technology. The sadness comes...

    From the sparse Tesla state of South Carolina

    Greetings from Columbia. My 75D is in transit with arrival in 2-3 weeks. There is no supercharger near me. I am working to get my garage charger installed. I have been stalking the two Teslas I have seen in my area.

    Consoles

    While I eagerly await production and ultimate delivery to the Carolinas of my blue 75D, I have realized I have not considered the console issue. Apparently I was so thrilled during my test drive and ordering process I have no idea what comes with the car. So experts, should I do an upgrade...
