Iv seen many posts about people asking about how Tesla picks who gets in and who doesn't, so I thought I'd try and clear up one point that i keep seeing brought up.
A big factor for people who say they have high scores and have alot of autopilot miles seems to be their software version.
FSD is currently attached to 2022.20.18 and Tesla does not downgrade vehicles' software, so if you had a higher version of that when FSD was released you would have been immediately disqualified for that release and beta group.
I know for me, i was already at .24 (and am now .28)when 10.69 came out so i was out of luck and many others are in the same boat without them realizing it.
If you are always ahead of the FSD software version you will never get into the beta.
We don't know if the next FSD 10.69.X will be on 2022.24 or .28 (its almost definitely not 2022.36 because it seems like they are releasing a new bugfix patch every day) but people will need to once again be lower than that version to get it.
I'm not sure if it will work but one thing I tried is switching from advanced to standard software updates. I went from an update or two a week, to not having one since September. This will hopefully change me from always getting the newest software, to keeping me on a known stable version, which they are using for FSD and ideally it gets tacked on to my 2022.28, or I get it when 36 becomes the stable one.
Hopefully this is helpful to anyone who is still waiting. Good luck!
