Exactly. Always best to reduce risk whenever possible to protect yourself and others from brain farts.

The original 50 release crashed on install and disabled Autopilot. 50.1 fixed it.

2.0 or 2.5?Yeah I was more wondering from a software geekery perspective what caused it to work fine on mine, but crash on many others
Afaik both 2.0 and 2.5 are reported crashing with 2017.50. Mine was 2.5 and somehow took this update without problems.
Just drove1100 miles from Southwest Washington to Palm Desert California. Used autopilot more than 90% of the trip.
First day - pounding rain wipers on max through the entire state of Oregon & on into Mount Shasta California.
Whiteout conditions from Semi-trucks’ wheel spray for hundreds of miles & hundreds of Semis. Very scary. AP2 2017.50.1 was amazing. It seemed to see what I was not able to.
Auto lane change is definately more aggressive now. I have rationalized that it might be more safe since it isn’t using the side cameras to detect a rapidly approaching distant vehicles in the target lane. Once committed get done ASAP before conditions change.
It is a little jarring @ 80 + mph in the rain. Especially for my wife as a passenger as she reads a book on her iOS device.
I’m not a lead foot.
Semi-Trucks going 70+. You have to go 80+ to safely get by them quick enough to avoid getting completely enveloped and totally blinded in the side or rear wake.
I have my AP set to 2 miles over speed limit.
They may take 2 weeks longer. You can hotspot your car to your phone too, which is what I frequently do.
What about a wifi extender? That would at least also give you wifi also for your phone when you are out in your garage or driveway maybe. We've talked about one since we lose signal in a few places in our yard and come summertime when we are outside more it's a pain. Much rather use our wifi than cellular for alot of things.
Yep! You may have to be hotspotted for hours for the update to complete but connecting to WiFi does tend to start the download.
But only do it based off the data on TeslaFi: once you see 75% or so of users on some new update, hotspot. WiFi won’t magically get you an update when Fremont hasn’t scheduled your VIN for a rollout yet.
We live in Chicago and have a detached garage that is quite a bit of distance from the condo's main building. We use an Eero mesh to cover our house but just logistically it would be REALLY hard to get another node between our home and the garage. Thanks for the reply!
