Leaving Someone in Car..

Last night I used camp mode for the first time while attending a historic narrow boat event (rather than sleeping onboard in a tiny cramped cabin).
A very comfortable night - front seats remained in their normal positions (I’m 5’10”) including easy entry but there was still room for a full length sleeping bag & foam base, climate at 16C, fan at the lowest setting & the car remained free of condensation. Battery loss was -4%.
It’s a very good feature and I’ll definitely use it again.

Yes you’re right about the Model Y, it’s got plenty of height and width and I’ll probably never use a tent again while I own the Tesla.
I’ve had the sleeping bag since 2006 and it has been used for numerous music festivals & for canal boating etc. It’s ‘one and a half’ size so very comfortable (always used with a washable liner) but I can’t recall where it originally came from., sorry.

I took his comment to refer to the overall space where laying out the sleeping bag and generally moving around is easy including exiting via either rear door or the boot (which I did at one point using the app to open it).
I've camped a lot over the years and the Y is a much nicer experience than any one or two man tent, even if a Tesla didn't have a means to control the temperature.
I also forgot to add in my original post that I am grateful to the thread here for advice about locking with the screen, not phone so I stretched forward to do that once I was ready to sleep.

Dog mode... we use it all the time with our 3 year old who regularly arrives home asleep in his car seat. The internal camera is fantastic to monitor him waking up. Be aware that there's a daily restriction on how long you can stream the internal camera before it will tell you that you've used up all your data.
