For those who got the trial, is EAP activated right away, or you can choose to defer the trial period?
Free Autopilot Trial?

There was no obvious button for deferring — only an option saying you didn’t want the trial at all.
I would like to know this as well, how long can I delay the trial start, or does it start right away? I received the notice that it will be available tomorrow. (Canada, model 3)
Thanks. I was hoping I could defer the trial start date until my road trip to the States in a few weeks, but it doesn't look like that can be done.

Don't install the update until you want it to start. I have it waiting for me for a couple days now, just trying to decide when to install it so I can make use of it.
I got the update to 2018.32.6 on Thursday, and I got the offer for the free Autopilot trial this morning.
Tried it on highway earlier today. It was a bit scary at first as I was going around a big curve and there was an on-ramp as well with lots of cars coming onto the highway. It navigated it well (a bit jerky though). Also got a bit scary when entering a construction zone and the road markings changed to the temporary orange lines and the car didn't seem to compensate well.
However, when on clear well marked highway such as on the 407, it was pretty cool.

It's stupid that we don't have adaptive cruise control without paying for EAP. It's standard on any new car.
So that’s showing summon as a feature - does it work in Canada now?
I got 2018.32.6 yesterday but no sign of the free trial.
Got the free trial yesterday. It's a little terrifying for the first few km's. Really enjoyed it on the HOV lanes from Toronto to the 403 though.
One thing that did change after the latest update (but may be unrelated) is that the frunk won't open. It pops open but the latch doesn't release. Anyone else have this - or is it just a coincidence?

I think this us just a coincidence. I upgraded to 32.6 on Friday morning, and then got the free EAP trial this morning. I have had the frunk issue a couple of times previously, not related to any specific software version. Frunk pops open but doesn't fully release from the latch. Just requires a second press of the open button on the touch screen or in the app to fully release it.
Yes. Summon worked for me during this trial. Got to use it on a road trip from Whistler to Banff and back. I'm a horrible driver I found out!

With regular EAP you have to drive 30-50 km or so for the car to calibrate itself before it becomes available. Maybe that's all that was going on.
My trial popped up this morning, a couple of days after the update loaded. Quite cool from my brief experiments on the way to the airport. Couple of scares too. Going to be fun learning about it and seeing if it can prise a few more thousands from me!
