    Colorado - Loveland - FSD v12 Results

    Here in SW Colorado, I'm driving V12.3.2.1 on rural roads and it is handling aalmost all cases just fine. I agree there is somehesitancy under AutoSpeed and some navigation errors but all in all it is significantly better than the last time I tried it under V10.x.

    All US Cars capable of FSD will be enabled for one month trial this week

    Don't Panic (apologies to Douglas Adams). I received the V12.3.2.1 software late Sunday and have driven it periodically for the last 3 days. It actually performs very well, although still a bit hesitant on my rural roads. It handles turns and intersections properly, almost as a human typically...

    Does the release just show up like others or do i request it?

    Does anyone actually have FSD v12 yet?

    Ran a red light? Yikes! That’s not something a driver can intervene with. Could it have been in aggressive mode and tried to beat a yellow light? Most videos indicate a much more cautious approach. Keep an eye on that and see what 12.4 does.

    Anyone know how to get high beams at speeds below 25?

    Auto high beams - am I doing something wrong?

    We are the beta testers. Pro: we get to drive a really smart EV; Con: car drives us crazy sometimes

    Help me decide on my next tires! (Michelin Cross Climate, Sport Pilot AS, Continental ExtremeContact DWS)

    I've had the Michelin Cross Climate 2 full set on my 2022 Model Y-LR on the 19inch wheels for about 1 year now. I live in Colorado at 7500 ft with town at 6500 ft. We have snow up to 6 inches and ice, black ice and slush from about mid-December thru April. I've not had any loss of control...

    Lane Change - Autopilot

    Whoops! My apologies. I have driven UK roads and appreciate the difference. Cheers.

    Did Tesla take away enhanced autopilot subscription?

    EAP sub would be great at, say $99/mo but I'd still be taking it only for road trips, same as I've done in the past with the $199/mo FSD. I no longer pony up for FSD sub because it's only useful in unfamiliar cities or metro regions and plain old Navigate handles locating a Starbucks or a hotel...

    Autopilot

    Yeah, AP off the freeway on back roads let alone city streets is quite sketchy. It gets anxious and nervous often, shuts off AP on a whim, messes up if the lane lines are faded, etc. Skip it IMHO.

    Lane Change - Autopilot

    Good comments here but seem to be mostly EAP users or Highland. Anyone satisfied with plain Jane AP? I have used it constantly, of course only on freeways but without any problems beyond a few Phantom Braking incidents which I've gotten used to handling. I see no reason to get EAP at least until...

    Tesla FSD - A Five Year Perspective

    A couple weeks ago I drove I25 from Colorado Springs thru Santa Fe and back to Durango using AP almost exclusively. There were 2 Phantom Braking incidents and periodic lane confusions when on ramps appeared on the right. Otherwise it was flawless and uneventful. Granted when I wanted to change...

    Significant improvement on auto high beams

    Same problem with today’s gas cars, all the electronics just to spin crankshaft and move piston have put the shade tree mechanic out of business.

    Auto high beams - am I doing something wrong?

    The AutoHighBeam function still has a non-operating threshold below 266MPH, even now in December of 2023. I have the same issue as azulejo has with driving on dirt roads at speeds below 26MPH for safety. My neighborhood keeps speeds under 25 to avoid hitting wild animals, mostly deer, which...
