I fear we are going to be waiting for a while. Don't bother buying a Tesla unless you are going to spend a minimum of $80k. Almost everyone getting the update are Ds, RWD are obviously third class citizens in their eyes.

@Dan Detweiler @MP3Mike @EinSV - of the 51 39.7 updates from 36.2 on TeslaFi, 48 are D models. Do you not think that is a skewed push?

51 cars out of how many thousands that will get the update? How many days has it been available? Good Lord, have some patience.

I have patience which is why I said we will be waiting for a while. Having come from MB with a C-Class, I'm accustomed to being treated as a second class owner.
If they start changing their push, I'll come back here and eat crow.

For what it's worth, I have two Model 3's, one RWD and one PD. Neither has yet received the update.

I have a feeling that folks who had the earlier v9 releases are going to get 39.7 soonest. Sounds like some bugs in .5 and .6 are what held it up, and confidence is higher in .7; having said that, neither of our 3s have gotten it yet (both on 36.2). Hopefully by the end of the weekend.

I guess it's just that after waiting 891 days for the car, getting upset about waiting a week or so for the update seems sort of silly. Certainly don't feel like a second class citizen.

It's not an issue of waiting a few more weeks, it's the issue that it is not an equal push. If the push was being done proportionally to all the models, I would understand if my number just didn't pop up.

Yes, it does look slick. But is it better? I think the old UI was easier to operate and the flow direction more obvious at a quick glance. The only thing that is a clear usability improvement is being able to quickly change the temperature by sliding your finger from the temperature in the bottom bar.
perhaps more people that pay for a D are more likely to also pay for a subscription service to monitor their car? Teslafi should in no way be used as an accurate measure.

You don't even know the people that got the update and not installed it yet. With such a small sampling that could by itself sway the balance. Sorry you feel slighted but I think it is premature to jump to conclusions.

I asked earlier, but I think it got missed. Does anyone have any idea how to tell visually if the heat is on in the new UI? It no longer seems to show the orange coloring for heat like the pre-V9 builds did (even if I crank the temp way up).

If TeslaFi didn't show their subscriptions, I could almost agree.
Model3310 - 585
Model3310D - 309
Based on the sample size of TeslaFi, it has a margin of error of 2.3% with a 99% confidence level. Their statistics are significantly better than almost every poll conducted (and I'm not referring to just Tesla polls).

I don't like the turn-it-off button is now so far up and left, makes turning it off so much more difficult them before but the new quick temp adjust is better
Coincidently Tesla mobile was here to 'replace' a bunch of missing fender liner clips and the tech then asked me if I had feedback on the car, the new software etc - told him about that button and I wished dash cam did split screen capture, top view == forward cams with rear cam on the bottom.
