Haven't gotten the 69.1.1 version yet: I'm part of the May crowd.
But if Tesla is being slow about letting me in, I understand.
I'm in Central NJ, one of the most congested places in the U.S.. Our roads weren't laid out by drunken cows (that's Boston's story, and it's sticking to it), but we got our fair share of Colonial-era ideas about how to route roads; they're not pretty. On top of that, NJ has this historical bit where, as competing railroads extended themselves west, every little po-dunk rail stop acquired a small town which promptly seceded from the larger townships. The larger township's farmers would maintain the roads in the townships in lieu of taxes; the small towns each thought they were the next best thing to NYC or Philly. As a result, there's lots of vaguely straight roads between NYC, Philly, and points south, but going NE or SW.. no two towns
ever agreed on a straight road that went between them. A major E-W road terminates on one of those SW-NE roads, people hang a left (or right), then go into the neverwoods (there's actually a town by that name..) to go cross-country. Road maintenance and planning was, shall we say, an extreme afterthought.
So, my 20-odd mile (as the crow flies) commute is along a NW<->SE axis. There's easily, depending upon where the latest accident was on I-78, the GSP, I-287, the NJT, local roads, etc., and normal variable congestion, a dozen ways to get from point A to B and/or back. Local roads, 4-way stop signs, 3-way stop signs, six-lane local roads with lights, occasional rotaries, narrow roads going over hills with heavy woods on both sides and no lane markings and
everybody going 20 mph faster than the limit, one lane roads splitting into three lanes as it goes over a hill, where one must be in the middle lane to go straight (and 12.2
always gets the lane wrong), interstates with a two-lane on-ramp merging onto the five-lane main artery, and one must shift over three lanes to go straight, and it's always congested, and so on and so on. It's no surprise that on a given day that little video recorder button get hit anywhere between 5 and 20 times a
trip, never mind both ways.
I don't know who it was at Tesla that let me into the Beta back in May, but, by now, I'm betting they sincerely regret that move. (Assuming that it wasn't a robot. Do robots feel regrets?) So, if I'm dead last on the 69.1.1 brigade, it's not going to be surprise. I mean, Tesla wants feedback.. but there must be limits
