Hey everybody, it's Chuck. Welcome back. Well, we got a drop yesterday and I know I'm a little late getting this one out. I had some things going on yesterday with the fire I had in my barn and dealing with that. But we have version FSD 14.3.1 on build 2026.2.9.7. And this build is, and some people did ask for a nav database update. We are still on 2025.44, which many people are saying is problematic. Still having some navigation.

Navigation and turn issues and turn issues and things like that. So we'll see if we see any navigation issues. Navigation is still the Achilles heel of FSD, in my opinion. And we are going to do a right turn here. Ooh, slow down for the squirrels right off the get-go. I'm forcing it now to go to the unprotected left turn with that disengagement right there. My route, I need another waypoint to force it from where I start these drives these days.

Anyway, any case, some people have driven this version already. We're going to do the standard Memorial Park Drive. We are going to see what we see improved. The first version was a rock-solid rebuild, really, really good version. But there was a little bit of brake stuttering. Parking was not great. I never saw the P that I noticed.

And so there's some things, I think, to be tweaked on. I am hearing that parking still isn't perfect and things like that. But hey, we're going out on a... What do we got today? Today's Wednesday morning, 8 o'clock. And there's a train right out in front. A short train, not a long train. Rush hour should be a little bit more of a factor today. I don't know if I'm going to catch a school zone or not. It's 8 o'clock. There's a possibility we'll catch the tail end of the 8 o'clock school zone.

There's our schnitzel stop. And there we are rolling out to our creep. So this situation is like one of our old UPLs. We got a car here who's got the right-of-way. We are slowly creeping all the way out. And there's a... Okay, we got to wait on him either way. He's going after this gap. So he basically used it up and we didn't budge. So it correctly identified and honored that. Traffic stopped to the right. There's a tiny gap here. It should not go for that.

Okay, it's not going to go because this car braked with his blinker on, which made the gap shrink. Now we got two more cars and then we're going to go. Let's look for the question mark. Let's look for the merge. I see no oncoming traffic, so this should be a roller. There's our q...
