It's not unique to West Texas. The navigation system's main focus is freeways, and even there it is lacking (eg. I-35 South of Waco, post-construction, Hwy 290 near Houston, post-construction). Coverage on two lane rural roads has a long way to go.rideincircles: nice write-up! I'll get with Tony at Terlingua Basecamp.
Autopilot also has issues with passing lane sections on 2 lane highways. It goes to the middle and then jerks to the lane once it realizes its a new lane. Also, sometimes it would ride the median on right turns.
Autopilot's programmed speed limits are wrong on so many areas in West Texas
Agreed - 100% correct on both of these.
Can anyone tell us how to submit this as a bug report to the proper team at Tesla?
The only way that'd solve it is they re-implement the AP V1 feature of reading speed limits off of signs. Don't know the details but that might have some legal hurdles regarding their past contracts with Mobileye.As far as the autopilot issues go out here, I just hope it does not require the processor upgrade to solve the current issues. Right now that is not in my plans, but do wish I would have purchased the upgrade for $3k while I still had the chance.
Good luck with this. National Parks are not at all EV friendly as a general rule. Plugging into a random outlet can at the very least get a severe scolding for theft of electricity, and likely a ticket if you push things. I'm sure it depends on management attitudes, but I certainly wouldn't rely on it. Even though they are concessionaires, they still are under park control. Check Plugshare -- there is a listing there in the basin for an L1 plug, but they just didn't get caught, I suspect.I am heading back to Big Bend NP next weekend in the Chisos campground. Any idea if there are any 120v outlets available to charge around the lodge in the chisos mountains? I was hoping to see if any were available and talk with management about possibly seeing when they will install some chargers around there.
Not exactly what you are asking for but might help you in this area; The RV park on the east end of Sanderson has 50A breaker's NEMA 14-50 plugs. Talked to the manager (owner?) and he didn't really name a price but I told him we drew about 70c/hr electricity at most, and he said if he isn't around just stuff money that you "think is fair" into the butt of the pink pig at the RV check-in hut.I am heading back to Big Bend NP next weekend in the Chisos campground.

Not every site has the 14-50s, the list of sites that do is painted onto the side of that check-in hut (which is also a bathroom I think).
I'm going to add it to plugshare tonight.
Campgrounds have TT-30 outlets, NOT NEMA 5-30. Please don't buy/make a NEMA 5-30 adapter hoping to charge at a campground! Also note that the TT-30 will give about 9 mph charging on a Model S/X.If relying on campsites and RV sites, consider acquiring the third-party 5-30 adapter ($85) in case you run into a situation when you have access to 120v/30A but not 240v/50A.
Would be good to find an outlet ahead of time near your house and see what happens.What outlets do they have at Big Bend National Park? Do I need any other adapters? I just have what came with the car. Worst case scenario is drive to Big Bend and back just drive in my friends car around the park. IT should be able to handle Fort Stockton to chisos and back.
This looks like the only one I could order today and get it tomorrow before the trip.

Edit: Based on comments and reviews, it sounds like this wouldn't work, but the Tesla comments were a couple years old.

I bought the 220 plug adapter for the "old style" clothes dryers that have those angled plugs. I've run into those types of outlets several times, which prompted me to get that adapter.

I'm pretty sure Tesla doesn't sell that one anymore. If one is desperate, and there is a plug ... Always set to scheduled charging and set the current limit before the charging starts, just to be careful.The kind of adapters that adapt 50A plug to a 30A socket are dangerous and should not be used. They are a fire hazard because they baypass one of the protection against overloading the circuit. I'm surprised it is legal to sell those. If you want an adapter for NEMA 10-30, buy the one from Tesla that directly connects to the UMC and set the correct current limit.

Tesla just doesn't sell an adapter for every socket. My most used is the TT-30, for which I have to manually set the current limit to 24A, because it adapts to the Tesla 14-50 plug, which tells the car is can go to 40A.
I'd rather have the adapter and do a manual limit than have no charging option while camping!
