Thanks to all for your help and advice.
Trip down to Palm Desert went well as far as supercharging goes...
Weather was quite another story - pounding rain - wipers on max through the entire state of Oregon & on into Mount Shasta California where it turned into a light rain/snow mix.
Whiteout conditions from Semi-trucks’ wheel spray for hundreds of miles & hundreds of Semis. Very scary. AP2 2017.50.1 was amazing. It seemed to see what I was not able to.
Auto lane change is definately more aggressive now. I have rationalized that it might be more safe since it isn’t using the side cameras to detect a rapidly approaching distant vehicles in the target lane. Once committed it gets it done ASAP before conditions change.
It is a little jarring @ the 80 + mph necessary to get passed Semi Trucks in the rain. Especially for my wife as a passenger as she reads a book on her iOS device.

This trip definitely took less of a toll on my body than It did I n my Toyota Hylander. Longer (30-50 minutes)(yet fewer) stops with time to walk and rejuvenate.
Kettleman Supercharger WOW!
