Yep, and sometimes you are forced to switch to new hardware as they stop making older devices.
Not updating the code with newer features does not necessarily mean that the code is not being maintained or supported. Without OTA any critical SW update will mean a visit to a dealer or a company/OEM approved facility to update the firmware by some method as approved by the the OEM.
Denver often has afternoon rain, sometimes gully-washers. The first thing that goes is NoAP. Then it will warn that features are reduced, like max speed being 45, etc. Finally it will bail completely. Weather happens pretty fast here so some of those steps may get skipped. The rain does not have to be that severe. Once droplets are blocking the cameras, you’re screwed.
Well, this says all models, FWIW....

I deleted the post to avoid inciting conflict with FSD proponents. But to answer your question I don’t use AP.
I have, yes. FSD Beta. Seattle tends to sprinkle mist and my experience has been absolutely awful. The wipers engage to medium speed and it wipes on a dry windshield 5 times over just for a few tiny droplets.
Elon would say anything to justify a terrible decision. A car that cannot see through fog is not safer, so take it with a grain of salt. At the end of the day, you're the one who signed the indemnity agreement to clear Tesla of liability.
It bothers me because it's too sensitive, because the people who built the car don't actually experience different weather patterns. No means of submitting feedback, and the only option the driver has is to accept it or sell the car.
Don't update? Then you miss all the exciting improvements AND security updates. 2018 Model 3 70K miles and still lovin it!
The notion FSD could ever work in a Vision-only system is just laughable. What happens when an ego maniacal CEO tail wags the corporate dog...
