I posted on Twitter/Instagram our trip to Florida over the holidays from Michigan. Granted, I could have done a better job at organizing the posts, all of the information is there for our trip. I used NOA as much as possible for this trip. The drive back was similar but split between 3 days. Round trip was about 2,600 miles on NOA.
Amazing.....did you used the options of lane changing with out drivers assistance? I am still quiet scared and not comfortable enough, maybe more driving is required of me....thanks for the info

The settings I used were:

Enable at start of every trip: Yes
Speed based lane changes: Started with Average then eventually switched to Disabled while still in Ohio
Require Lane Change Confirmation: No
Lane Change Notification: Chime

The reason I switched the speed based lane changes to Disabled was because the car was sometimes wanting to attempt to pass a car barely going slower than me while almost cutting cars off that were passing us. Mild was working for me for a bit, but I came to the conclusion that I am much more relaxed not anticipating a random lane change while going slightly slower. If I decided I wanted to move around a slower vehicle, I would then initiate the lane change manually via the blinker stalk and go on my way.

Hands down the easiest drive I've ever taken. It's like driving as a passenger. The micromovements of the steering wheel are handled by the car, no longer requiring your mind to constantly be processing where the wheel needs to be.

I was skeptical about AP during my first trip to Tennessee from Michigan but I was more curious than afraid. I guess that's just the engineering mindset I have, trying to understand how the system behaves.

Cheers!

That the way I do it and Elon was right when he said “you will not care about going slow - if you are not driving.” Took a few to understand him, originally I did not get it, but now I do.
