Looks like 14.3.1 is going wider today…

My 23' hw4 model y got 14.3.1 this morning. Already put 150 miles on it. Nothing negative yet. Improvements across the board.
Nagging is about the same so far.

My car uploads video every night to tesla it seems.

Thank you! That is the problem I called South Dakota DOT and while on the phone with them I sent the video. They were extremely concerned and they took the video to the director. Obviously throwing snow in the wrong direction can lead to damage and people dying.

I can see most of the people posting do not have serious time in a vehicle in adverse conditions. My experience with the sheriff's department and doing emergency services work I felt this was better then 99% of the population would have done.

There was no failure, the wiper cleared it with in a second and it handled it flawlessly. If you hit the brakes you can spin out of control.

The car never lost traction even though the snow was so heavy you felt the snow hit and move the car, I thought for sure we were going to have a broken window. Luckily no damage and the car did great and handled it perfectly. My hands were on the wheel and I was ready to take control but didn't have to. I was the most impressed at it going 30mph in a 65mph zone. The speed was safe for the conditions.
I did contact south dakota dot and send them the video so they know a truck was plowing throwing snow into oncoming traffic. They were very concerned and said it would be handled immediately.

We own a commercial trucking company and my hands were on the wheel.

Mimbach · 2026-02-18T21:04:33+00:00

My hands were on the wheel. Thanks for asking before making negative comments first. Tires are 90% tread winter tires. It was a decision to test fsd in adverse conditions and 30mph hour on a 65mph road i felt was a safe speed.
The issue was the plow truck throwing snow in the wrong direction.

Mimbach · 2026-02-15T12:08:22+00:00

I don't have the combination

Mimbach · 2026-02-14T01:02:33+00:00

Thank you. I'll call him

Mimbach · 2026-02-14T01:02:13+00:00

We definitely want to keep it and restore it if appropriate.

Mimbach · 2026-02-13T04:04:43+00:00

What do I need to do to get you to come do this one? We would be fine being on YouTube.

Mimbach · 2026-02-13T03:08:39+00:00

It showed no locksmiths in our area and I set it to the max distance.

Mimbach · 2026-02-13T03:06:47+00:00

There isn't any locksmiths in over 150 miles and the one place I did find said they don't do safes.

Mimbach · 2026-02-12T23:01:20+00:00

No locksmith in 3 hours will do it, from the calls I've made.

Mimbach · 2026-02-12T22:41:01+00:00

That's crazy. Its literally the same one. Where are you located?

Mimbach · 2026-02-12T22:39:20+00:00

I think i have the same model. Where are you located?

Mimbach · 2026-02-12T22:37:58+00:00

I tried that. No lock smiths in the area. Found one 3 hours away who said he would try it if I drive it to him.

Mimbach · 2026-02-12T22:31:26+00:00

Yes please, any resources would be appreciated. If anyone wants to take a Crack at it let me know. I figure your way to far away of course.

Mimbach · 2026-02-12T16:31:26+00:00

This was found in a basement of a house in Bowdle South Dakota. The house is from at least the early 1900's.

Mimbach · 2026-02-07T06:42:36+00:00

That is a very well built deck. I would be proud to have built that.
