Wish they’d add the yearly data subscription with a bit of a discount over monthly.

Have they fixed the part where the car doesn't detect the toddler and hits it full force every time?

Are you referring to the Dawn Project video? Dan O'Dowd is the founder of a competing driver assistance software, so I wouldn't consider him to have an unbiased viewpoint.

Or ignores motorcycle taillights at night, thinking it's a car far away before ramming it?

That’s awesome because it’s actually Full Self Driving, not just some level of automation! Canadians will be able to actually sleep at the wheel while their Tesla drives them from Vancouver to Toronto.

This is literally my wet dream. Fuck ferraris and supermodels and all of that, this is what turns my crank.

I also recognize we aren't there yet, but I can't wait!

Same! V12 looks promising, though there must still be some issues, as there hasn't been a wide release yet.

I'm looking forward to trying it myself. That is, if the damn thing ever gets here (and it's been like a week, but I have the patience of a toddler).

Give yourself done credit. It's been at least two weeks since it started going to employees.
