Todd’s heart skipped a beat as he read the much anticipated “new software update available” notification sent to his Tesla phone app, hoping this would turn out to be the Tesmas Eve that Full Self Drive mode was installed.

Upon hearing the exciting news, Cassie posted to her Tesla Divas FB group, "I just got bowled over by that 'Tesmas Eve' kinda feeling... received word that we are set to close escrow on our new home tomorrow!”
