I think this is the most dangerous thing about AP. Occasionally I will have to hold the wheel to prevent the car from going onto an exist ramp. That will kill autosteer but keep on TACC. I will forget that I now have to steer manually or re-engage autosteer and start drifting out of my lane.As silly as it sounds, I lose track of whether it or TACC (which I use a lot) is on, because your brain defaults to whatever you tend to routinely use.
Because of where I live, where we don’t have divided highways, I don’t get the benefit of the AP. Usually put it on if I am looking for tunes or a podcast, or reaching around for something, because it is way safer than a distracted driver. When I take a long trip on divided highways I will occasionally use it...
Yes, AP1. It nags every 3-4 minutes. If in the right lane, it ALWAYS tries to exit the highway. When I approach a truck (only on the right side) it veers right to the point where I always have to take control. Otherwise, lane changing is fine. Generally it tracks fine for lane keeping. Acceleration and braking work fine.
Also - it's boring. I like to drive, not be driven.
So, as I said previously, I wouldn't re-order auto-pilot.
I'm on 2018.6.1.641ef. I've had it for a couple of weeks. I tried autopilot on the 410 (6-8 lane "interstate") just after getting it. Results: It tried to take me down the Bovaird off ramp incorrectly, and hugged a couple of trucks, on the right side. BUT, it was smooth around bends, lane changed perfectly, kept to the speed of stop and go traffic between Derry and Queen, and generally held lanes. A couple of nags in the 10-15 minutes I had autopilot on.What firmware version are you on? Have you tried it in those situations recently?
I haven't seen truck lust in several months, and while it still approaches exit ramps more than I'd like, it's much less than the car did under older firmware.
Boring in heavy stop and go traffic is exactly what we're paying for.
Just drove to and back from Florida, ostensibly for the war air, but really I wanted to try a super charging trip. We took our X 100D. We got the AP update while we were down there. So I have had 2,500Km recently each on the old and updated versions. Quite a difference. In particular the tracking and lane changing were much improved. Used it all the time. For me, makes driving way more relaxing. Wish the nag was less frequent. I have to say it is so good now on a highway in either stop and go or flowing traffic that it is in a way more dangerous - it is simply so easy to not pay attention. The final 'regular' thing it needs for highway driving is to recognize earlier when another vehicle is entering you lane. My original S does not have AP and now I am going to miss it a lot - even for 400 series highways.
The super charging is simply the way to go. 40-60min to stretch and eat is barely enough time. The car was often ready before we were. My wife wants to drive all over the place now whereas before it seemed like an odyssey to her.

DMC-Orangeville, I travel most Fridays to Collingwood. Use AP quite often on Hwy 26 with no problems. Frustrates some of the pickup speeders behind me because of the 90 kmh limit. My AP1 car also never has exhibited the "truck love" a lot of drivers complain about.
At least you haven’t found yourself doing 140 yetIts a terrific experience. There are occasional issue and yes, you absolutely still need to pay attention to the road, but works wonderfully most of the time. With the new release for AP2, the lane changes are fantastic. Previously the car was slow in changing lanes, and I'd rarely use it while downtown because of how tighter cars tend to drive during higher volume times. AP2 with the latest update moves nicely between lanes. My only real complaint is I was an avid speeder (nothing crazy, but I'd cruise with the flow in the fast lane) previous to buying the Tesla, and now sometimes I find myself behind a car doing 115km/h and not caring.
When not using AP it is very easy to find yourself doing 140 since the car accelerates so quickly, not to mention silently and no gear shifting.At least you haven’t found yourself doing 140 yet
