    FSD Beta 10.12

    It worked, I’m now amongst the chosen ones. I’m glad I made the decision to not drive my Plaid X like a grandma for the last 5 months and just wait.

    FSD Beta 10.12

    Cool, well if anyone needs me, I’ll be out driving 100 miles to prove I can sit still with my eyes on the road for about 2 hours.

    FSD Beta 10.12

    Wow, and here I have been only driving without autopilot because I didn’t think those miles counted towards the 100.

    FSD Beta 10.12

    Do you mean that I have to go hit the road with 100 miles of autopilot on?

    FSD Beta 10.12

    Is the mileage requirement to get into the beta 100 or 200 miles? I have seen both posted.

    Yeah it seems that way. I wouldn’t do it with serious snow though. That can stall you for several hours up and down the mountain. I offer free EV charging at my cabin rental if anyone wants to DM me for the listing.

    There are no “lines.” However, Plaids will come faster than regular.

    Haven’t been on here for awhile but thought I would check in to give everyone else who is waiting some motivation. I have had the car now for about a month and it has far exceeded my expectations in every way. When I ordered it, I was ordering my dream car and it has been just that. During...

    The first couple times you launch it are kind of scary haha. So yes, it’s very very very fast. I don’t zoom around normally though (especially as I’m trying to maintain my FSD safety score). I always leave it in Plaid mode though. Not sure why I would pick anything else since I can just go...

    My understanding is nobody has been added since late December. Our X’s are on 2022.4.5 which I don’t believe supports FSD. I think all FSD Beta cars are still on 2021. So basically, we won’t get our new X’s into the beta until 2022 builds support FSD (I think). I hurried up to get a 99 score...

    I was in my window 3 separate times before I finally got a VIN. They just kept pushing it out 3 days every time I got past the beginning of the window. However, once I did get the VIN, delivery happened two days later.

    For what it’s worth, I thought mine may not work too. First day home though, I brought it next to my charger port, pressed the button on the handle and boom, the charge port opened like a charm. Charging started perfectly. It was shocking actually ⚡😂

    Ha! Don’t miss the part about the text message. I got a text first and then checked the app and nothing was there. I checked the webpage and the VIN was there. It took the app about an hour or two to finally update with the VIN. Best of luck!

    If someone told me back in Feb that I would be here almost a year later, commenting on page 1000, I would have definitely just purchased another vehicle. Now I’m so deep down this rabbit hole, I can’t leave.

    I really think it just has to do with configuration luck. Most of the earliest ones I saw were white and most had 22’s. Mine is black/black with 20’s.

    Others were told they get the current higher pricing and go to the back of the line. It’s as if they just started a new order online today. No timing given either.

    The range is 333 versus 348 for LR. I can’t imagine anyone really noticing a 15 mile range difference (which is probably more like 10 in Tesla miles). I’m guessing this is part of why it isn’t actually called LR anymore. It doesn’t have much more range at all. Probably the only range...
