Is this real? Seems like a good tip

It is real. I included this in one of the threads from being a FSD tester on 3 cars since Oct of 2021.

Tesla won't roll back software, so if you're ahead of whatever FSD comes on, you just won't get it until it catches up.

This seems to be widely pushing to all CTs now so I couldn't imagine that they wouldn't move 13.5 to it before long. Could be a case of having to wait on HW3 cars though?.

Tesla knows every CT out there is anxiously waiting on FSD. I guess the question is, do I think they are pushing us ahead of the FSD branch to buy more time for the "catch up"? The fact that they pushed it to Chucks truck makes me think the eventual FSD release for CT will be on this branch instead. I think I'll probably install it.

Nah 100% trust from me. "take me there truck... take me to the future!"

Honestly, if you've never driven the truck before and you've never driven FSD before, that's stupid. I'm completely serious about that.
That may indeed get yourself killed, at a minimum completely turn you away from FSD and the Cybertruck.

You HAVE to be proficient in the truck first. You have to know where all the controls are and be able to access quickly. You have to be able to take over and drive the truck at less than a moment's notice. It WILL disengage at the worst time doing the worst thing. That's pretty much guaranteed.

I'm hoping that you were joking, because it is a good way to die.

I've learned FSD over 6 years and have two cars with it. I can pretty well guess exactly what the car is going to do. It rarely surprises me anymore, but it did the other days with one of the fastest lane changes that I have ever seen. It happened to someone else, and they took over and got into an accident because of it.

It takes time to learn the Cybertruck. If you haven't driven a Tesla before, and even if you have, the things that are built into your muscle memory have changed.

• Music too loud
• Turn on turn signal
• Put in reverse
• Starts to rain
• Regenerative braking
• Obnoxious acceleration
• On Hold stopping

None of these are hard to do, but you do have to get used to doing them.

FSD will scare you. You will try to wrestle back control. You won't know when FSD is off, but TACC is still engaged. You won't know what the big red screen means. So many things that FSD do aren't the way that you would and take back control.

Tesla is testing FSD on the CT for the first time in public!

I had seen this before ...

2024.21.5 (FSD 12.5.1.1) Official Tesla Release Notes - Software Updates (notateslaapp.com)

​

Upcoming Improvements:​

​

- Earlier and more natural lane change decisions.​

​

- Vision-only driver monitoring with sunglasses.​

​

- End-to-End on highway.​

​

Thanks Dad. You have to be proficient? Are you a driver instructor? Or a ??

No, I've just listened to thousands of postings of people complaining about FSD. I've read too many detailed descriptions of scenarios where I know that the car could handle, the driver just didn't believe it could and effectively chickened out.
I know that I've been in many of those situations where I aborted, but then repeated them by slowing the car down and seeing exactly what it was going to do, then slowly speeding it back up.
I've seen passengers freak out in my right seat in situations that I know the car was going to handle.
That's why I don't tell them I'm not driving anymore.

FSD is not like getting in the back seat and letting a chauffeur take over for new drivers.
It's feels to new drivers much more akin to jumping in a yellow cab in NYC at 4:30 in the afternoon.

After a few months, it does get closer to the chauffeur. You just get used to the way you drive and right now it often does drive as slow as some chauffeurs.

Ok Dad and Grandpa combo thanks.

I'm assuming we'll get it late month. Likely won't have time to test it so I plan on YOLO-ing with FSD for our family Labor Day trip. Zero Fear. How fast can we set the FSD over the speed limit?

I suspect that with default settings, you can't. It chooses the max speed for you.
With true FSD you aren't driving, you don't get to make those choices.
If it goes too slow, it goes too slow. It is goes too fast, then it's going too fast.
When it's driving, it's driving.

When it decides that it doesn't want to drive, and it probably will, you have to know what to do.

It sounds like Friday the 13th might have been an appropriate day for this to roll out, but, I’m still waiting. Maybe when the apocalypse comes?
