your in control to be a 'beta tester' or not
You can choose how quickly and often you receive software updates. To change your preference, navigate to Controls > Software > Software Update Preferences and choose either of these options:
• STANDARD: Receive software updates using the normal rollout timeframe for your region and vehicle configuration. When a software release is made available it has generally been running on other customer vehicles for a period of time.
• ADVANCED: Receive the latest software updates for your region and vehicle configuration as soon as they are available. Tesla determines how, when, and where to send updates to vehicles based on various factors unique to each release. Keep in mind that although you receive updates as soon as they are available for your specific vehicle, you may not be in the first Tesla group of Tesla owners to receive the update. Choosing Advanced does not enroll your vehicle in Tesla's early access program.
Exactly. That's how I take my aforementioned pass. I am on standard and was still being prompted to take 2020.12.5 so one assumes that Advanced users have all had it and no ones car has exploded so the update would then go to the wimps like me. Which is why I am a little surprised that I was prompted to take it and it now seems to have been pulled for some reason......
