Sailing boats usually have radar reflectors mounted in the mast I believe. Bicyclists should have radar reflectors as well.I passed bicyclists at two different times this morning and neither appeared on the AP screen.

I've had mine for 2 yrs and found the nav has improved a lot since then. I rarely have issues with it. So not everyone is having a negative experience.
Quite possibly because the system doesn't detect bicycles and has never claimed to.
Anyone with a S75 rear wheel drive get the update?
I've found the nav to be exceptional about 99% of the time. I'm sure it must depend greatly on where one lives.I've had mine for 2 yrs and found the nav has improved a lot since then. I rarely have issues with it. So not everyone is having a negative experience.
The catch with beta testing is it often fails to test the actual installation process. The beta testers would have been installed a while back, and then periodically upgraded on their own isolated stream.While the zealots will take exception with my POV, it appears Tesla has been lax focusing on functionality beyond perhaps AP with any rigor, AND/OR Elon has elected to do this very slow roll-out of 8.0 with the fleet performing even more of the real-world testing one would expect any EAP to have accomplished. In either case perhaps he felt the need to get the AP changes out faster, or was pressured to get the new radar-biased code into the fleet by NHTSA or his legal team sooner than later.
IMHO whatever is going on does not bode well for a top-notch engineering firm quality-wise. Tesla's selection of EAP testers should be extremely representative of the fleet, while feedback expectations and Tesla's analysis of that input, should cause even non-safety failures like missing USB song alpha-sort to be caught in advance of a deployment GO decision. For anyone that's run major rollouts or been responsible for significant business critical system migrations, it just looks sloppy, or that Elon/Tesla really does not care about anything except (his) visionary improvements -- I hope the latter is not the case.
Tesla no longer has just a few enthusiast vehicles in the fleet. To be successful with an exponentially growing fleet owned by the masses in the near term, Tesla can't rely on perhaps an older-style "put it out there and we'll rapidly fix the big problems" approach. While Elon and most of us are impatient to get things done, Tesla must become more disciplined when it comes to thorough testing, ensuring only quality code from top-to-bottom reaches the fleet.
Anyone figure out how to put the MS into camper mode? Heard it was a V8.0 feature but don't see anything..
Just FYI, the MP3 codec has been supported natively by Bluetooth for a while now, so there is no loss at all. The audio system receives the same stream of 0s and 1s as if it were a wired connected or USB.I'd really like it to have phone integration as well, not having that puts them behind almost every other manufacturer at any price point. Having said that, I agree that Bluetooth sounds decent, but a direct connection would be noticeably better. I'm not going to load up a USB stick with music, so it just means that I'll never really get a high quality source for that extra $2,500 option.
Understood but that doesn't explain what we are hearing about USB. If it's that obvious then it should have been identified.The catch with beta testing is it often fails to test the actual installation process.

From reading Ingineers log analysis it seems the only problem was package installation of a subset of the packages.
I'm confident that the actual content of the code is solid.
I didnt know that. I had always thought that hard wired was preferable to BT.Just FYI, the MP3 codec has been supported natively by Bluetooth for a while now, so there is no loss at all. The audio system receives the same stream of 0s and 1s as if it were a wired connected or USB.
Note: other formats such as flac or wma will continue to be compressed over Bluetooth, so do benefit from hard wired connection.
Anyone seeing problems connecting to TuneIn radio? The Tesla media player wasn't able to connect to it for me, either on the LTE with a strong signal, or from my home wi-fi.
True, that would fall squarely into the "content" categoryUnderstood but that doesn't explain what we are hearing about USB. If it's that obvious then it should have been identified.
Installed 8.0 today, and though the new autopilot is all that and a bag of chips, I do have a few gripes. I'm going to list them here, in case Elon is paying attention, or in case anyone has any good workarounds...
1). Trip planner shows estimated battery remaining after a round trip, but doesn't route you through superchargers for a round trip
2) No waypoints
3). Trip planner plotted a ~200mile trip for me, and had me arriving with 6miles left on my battery, but told me I had to drive 55mph or less the whole way! Trip planner should allow for more flexibility, and should at least give you an optional supercharger stop if you're going to be left with, say, 10% battery at your destination
4). When using a USB drive, the media app will no longer subdivide an artist's music by album. Selecting an artist will give you all of their songs in alphabetical order, but if you have it organized by album on your usb drive you're out of luck
5). Tune in stations are no longer listed under favorites
6). It should give you the option of disabling auto hide for the app icons
Anyone else having any problems with 8.0?
