Quick introduction: I'm on the fence about getting a Model Y LR. I test drove one, and I've been reading a LOT about the car. In short, driving it sure was fun but I read some of the negatives and I wonder if it's really worth it. So...
What pros outweigh the cons for you, and make you love your car?
Not what features made you buy a Tesla Y (or 3), but what now makes you glad that you did?
Here's a quick list of some of the things I've read about, and I am concerned about, but couldn't really test on my test drive:
I guess I'm wondering if I can't use AutoPilot, auto headlights & wipers, experience problems playing musing on USB, if rear view and blind spots are worse than my current car, would I really be happy with a Model Y? Or is driving it just that much fun?

Here's a quick list of some of the things I've read about, and I am concerned about, but couldn't really test on my test drive:
- Phantom braking so bad that some people don't even use AutoPilot, and no "ordinary" cruise control at all
- Auto headlights too unreliable to rely on
- Auto windshield wipers unreliable whereas other cars do it well
- no Apple / Android integration
- lots of issues playing music from USB (I'm old fashioned and like having my 10,000+ song collection on USB in my current vehicle)
- it forgets where you were when you leave the car and get back in (that would really annoy me)
- issues searching USB by voice commands
- paying luxury car price for the car but not getting luxury features common in other cars in this price range
- rear visibility - tiny rear window, small side mirrors, no blind spot warning like many other cars have now
