Of course, people will adapt to the Yoke. For those that buy the car, they will have no choice but to adapt to it. Aside from visibility being better, when you're going straight only, I simply can't find a reason why it's "better" than having a full steering wheel. I've never once thought about visibility of the screen being an issue in my current S. To its credit, I guess it will force people to drive with two hands on the wheel a lot of times, which could be safer in that particular respect.
While many will say they've gotten used to it and accept, I simply don't believe that any near a majority will prefer it over a full wheel. I would venture to say that a majority of drivers drive one handed with a large number of drivers simply resting their arm / hand on top of the wheel (count me as one of them). It's simply where I'm most comfortable driving. I've tried to drive my car as if the top wasn't there and for me, simply just uncomfortable. This just my take. But, maybe forcing people to use two hands more often will prove to be more beneficial???
On another note, I miss the days when Tesla offered configuration options. For my 2015, I was able to choose the items I wanted and not have to pay for the items I didn't want. I was also able to configure the colors of the interior the way I wanted them. I loved my dark headliner with light seats and no wood. While my Raven is an amazing car, I loved my 2015 interior configuration so much more. Never been a fan of wood in a car. I loved the panoramic sunroof I had in my 2015 that could open up. I had no need for the upgraded sound system and was able to save that money. For a car in this price range, I want options to make it the way I want it. Tesla used to offer. Most other manufacturers still do offer that capability. The lack of choices simply adds another element as to why, especially with the now increased pricing, won't buy another one. I use my car for work and spent A LOT of time in it. I want an interior that I love, not one that I've had to settle for while paying $140,000+ for it. I understand Tesla took away the choices to simplify and reduce costs and maybe that's fine for the cheaper Model 3 and Model Y, but for the flagship model in their line up that's more than double the price, saving a few bucks just isn't worth it. I believe most buyers that would purchase a car in this price range would gladly pay a few extra dollars to get what they want rather than have to settle for something less.
The biggest theme with Tesla that comes up over and over and over again is that "you'll get used to it". That simply means you'll accept something inferior or settle for something inferior. Again, for me personally, at this price point, I don't want to have to "settle". Unfortunately as time goes on, there are more and more items that we have to "settle" on. One or two things, ok, but, the "settle" list has grown too large for me. Tesla cars have many AMAZING features, many of which make "settling" worth it. I've loved my past cars and was happy to settle in not getting things I would have preferred due to getting the things it does have. The positives outweighed the negatives. With the new Model S, for me and my personal needs and preferences, at this point, sadly, the positive list no longer outweighs the "settle" list.
