IMHO the Radio/Music interface could be much nicer. what they have for Radio displaying the stations is extremely boring. They could make it look way cooler by copying some WinAmp skin and putting some equalizers that move on it....and give more space for the RDS text.

Last year at this time I got 2.49% with Scotia thru Tesla. Some others got a bit lower. It really sucks that rates are going up, and it's just the start of it :(

Now they need to bring back the cards and enlarge some of the fonts. From what I see people have been asking for larger (or adjustable) font sizes for years, yet the trend is for Tesla to introduce smaller fonts and even make the colour of the fonts grey - harder to read. I hope for a...

I noticed it got slow after the V11 update. Before that it was much faster.

I don't mind changes as long as they make sense. Many of them in V11 just don't. It's a step backwards in terms of usability and functionality.

It's designed by 20'something year olds that don't actually drive a Tesla or maybe even own a car. They were probably told to "simplify" and "de-clutter" the interface and that is what they came up with, without living in reality, doing any usability testing or anything else. "Oh it looks...

Yep that Cold Weather tip is a stupid idea - the fact that it comes up EVERY TIME with no way to prevent it from turning on again. What, so 7 months of the year I have to deal with this now? It's something I would have expected from a legacy automaker, not Tesla.

My condolences.

Agreed. This just reinforces that they just made changes for changes sake. Maybe the Management said the goal was to "de-clutter" the GUI. So the software guys just say, "hey we can remove these buttons and put them all in a single screen". They did not THINK about these changes and the...

Here is my take...I agree with many this in many critical ways is a step backwards: 1) Controls should be customizable on the bottom, just like Apps are. You should be able to place front/rear defrost, heated seat control, etc, on the bottom row. Removing them to a secondary menu when there is...

Here is my take on the GUI. Nice update, but for sure room for improvement. 1) Controls should be customizable on the bottom, just like Apps are. You should be able to place front/rear defrost, heated seat control, etc, on the bottom row. Removing them to a secondary menu when there is ample...

Yes well it would depend on your situations. I have a busy family life with kids and you would be surprised (or not maybe) how busy you can get, thus the need to get things from the car unexpectedly (or not). I'm not saying it's every day.

I was wondering what anyone else things of this or if this happens to them. I park my Model Y in my garage every evening. It may so be the case that for various reasons I have to go to the car to get something. I forgot my wallet. I forgot my glasses. I forgot XYZ. Or you need to quickly...

Well mine started to get the stretch marks after only a few months...but it's only in that specific location. So likely due to wear and tear. But for the life of me I cannot find a seating position to get out of the Model Y without hitting that part of the seat every time. I've tried...

I don't think anything can fix the "stretch" marks though... :(
