"More work than having a person do it" A person? Looked like there were a couple hundred cars on the dock. And however many drivers are used, they have to disembark the boat and jog back to pick up another car. "Tightly packed for transport" Yeah; wouldn't that make it even more...

While watching some of that "B roll" video of Teslas being loaded onto ships, it occurred to me to wonder if the cars can be made to load and unload themselves onto/off cargo ships? I can't tell from the brief video whether human drivers are used for the loading process, but if they are, it...

(referring to wireless file transfer to/from in-car USB media). Yeah? How would they know? They don't ask, and seemingly have stopped monitoring fora such as this. Extrapolating from my own experience, I'd guess that a fair few users just despair of ever being heard, and keep their ideas to...

WHY doesn't the car allow you to email or otherwise transfer video files wirelessly, without futzing around with these hokey sneakernet solutions? WHY doesn't the car allow you to download .mp3 files onto the mounted USB memory's audio folder(s)? WHY doesn't Tesla have an officially-supported...

The set of floppy credit card pouches in my existing wallet are in tatters, prompting me to look for a replacement wallet. A lot of the newer wallet designs that are more focused on being credit card holders with little if any folding money storage are appealing, but almost all of them claim...

Might as well give an interim update.. Seeing as how nobody on this forum had advice to offer, I went ahead and put in a request for service via my Tesla phone app on 29Oct. That turned into a mobile service appointment for 8Nov, but in parallel, someone behind the service app curtain sent...

My first reaction is to be envious of your car's willingness to play music from USB simply because (if I understand you correctly) you press a "USB" icon on the touchscreen. I've had a Jun2020 Model Y, and although its music playback controls have changed their behavior several times over the...

After having had a warranty replacement of my 2020 MY LR AWD's infotainment/nav computer a couple weeks ago, I've noticed that Sudoku, the one game I occasionally play, will no longer start. When I try to invoke it, its splash screen appears, with an animated "progress bar" graph that I...

Thanks for the responses, Tronguy and ElectricAnt54; it helps to distinguish between an anomaly and a trend.

Followup: I brought the car into the service center as per appointment, expecting that the fix would be very quick, since the symptoms seemed so well correlated with firmware changes. Surprisingly, though, the service desk clerk said that remote diagnostics had been run, and had indicated...

Late in the afternoon of 10Oct, I got a notification via my smartphone that an update was available for my Jun2020 MY LR, so I immediately initiated its installation. I didn't drive the car until the next afternoon, when I noticed that none of its cameras seemed to work anymore; all camera...

I revisited this forum to see if anyone else had noticed an abrupt worsening of the car's ability to parse speed limit signs, because I certainly have. I drive a July2020 MY LR AWD, and on a recent trip down I-5, it ignored three 70MPH speed limit signs in a row after exiting a 60MPH section...

Thanks for the suggestion; it hadn't occurred to me that commanding "USB" by voice would be different than pressing the "USB" icon in one of the menus. Possibly I tried it once, but unluckily did so at one of those (thankfully) infrequent times when the car loses access to its USB-connected...

Being an old fossil, I prefer playing my music from MP3 files stored on the SSD tucked away in the car's console. The car's infotainment system can do that, but, exasperatingly, it fails to retain the audio source selection and sequencing preferences (play randomly, repeat, etc..) between...

Coming up on two years of ModelsY ownership, I've noticed several things about the car's software that I think could stand improving, but doubt there's any path to communicate them to Tesla. A friend suggested that there might be at least some cathartic value in airing them on this forum...
