Software Update Preference Poll
- Thread starter d21mike
- Start date
Given the increased bugginess and poor QC of software updates for the last year or so, I want to read about the problems before doing the update.
I chose Advanced because I have a risk-taking, beta-testing, "boldly go where no human has gone before" spirit that makes me approach the new shiny like a moth to a flame.

Who is buying a Tesla that is also the type that patiently waits for all the kinks to be worked out??? Advanced or bust! 
That person should be buying a Toyota, a company so extremely conservative they’re still figuring out if remote start is a feature worth offering...in 2019.

A very small poll but I wonder if with 86% wanting Advanced if it will make much of a difference in how fast we get the new update?
Advanced here as well!
It’s great fun, a computer on wheels running beta software at 70 MPH. It’s powerful, it looks great, and you can run it into the back of a stopped fire engine at 60 MPH and hop away with just a broken ankle. It’s got a live Internet connection, it’ll play any obscure song. More software updates, constantly adding new features, video games, a web browser, and I can drive from coast to coast and not spend a penny on fuel or electricity. You never change the oil, there’s very little maintenance. It steers itself and slows down if traffic slows, and when I come across that miles long line of nearly stopped traffic, it creeps along automatically so I don’t need to inch along myself. When it’s hot outside I can turn on the A/C with my cell phone a few minutes away so I never have to get into a hot car. Its all wheel drive is great in any weather, I don’t think I can get it stuck.
They added free supercharging after I ordered it, then they uncorked it.
Sure every now and again there’s Bozo braking but that’s getting better and better.
This is the most fun I’ve had with any car, I’ve been driving for 50 years so I’ve had dozens of them, and driven dozens and dozens more. This is the best of the bunch, it isn’t even close, this is the best by a huge margin.
New software, sign me up!
I grin every time I drive it.
I grin even when I think about driving it.

Sometimes I wonder if some folks forget that all who choose to enable autopilot are beta testers. Having been a beta tester for computer software I'm fully aware that beta = bugs. So I drive accordingly, prepared for bad but hoping for good.
