I get it. I like the old software better than the new. But I'd welcome your review of the pristine software constantly being pushed out over the air by the other car companies. I'll wait.
I don't understand what you're saying about old software better than new. Are you talking v11? I'm talking about people with Refresh Xs that were working and then after a software update get a constant stream of errors about rear restraint, brake warnings, beeping, you name it. Clearly, Tesla QAs their software as well as they QA the actual cars. Have you read the S/X Refresh issues threads?
Further, I was talking about things that existed in the old S/X software but are missing in the Refresh like the energy display (missing completely) or the ability to select what you want displayed on the sides of the driver's screen (I like the energy screen to be displayed on the driver's screen). It's that kind of stuff that the software team could have been working on for the last 2 years. Heck, they already have the code working in the previous S/X. It's just a port job.
You asked about other car companies. Ok. But I think you should sit down first. I have had a Volvo XC40 Recharge for 5 months now. In that time I have received 1 OTA update which added some new features. Prior to the update, I received an email from Volvo. This email told me that a software update was coming in the next few weeks, gave a link to the release notes with what was changing, and instructions on how to do the update, turn on/off automatic updates, etc.
This is really not that hard. Tons of companies turn out quality software every day. You can literally buy books on best practices for doing this. Releasing software this bad (and physical vehicles for that matter) is a choice that Tesla has made. They refuse to invest in Software Development processes to both write better code and use a robust QA process to test code prior to going out.
Ok, i finally got a delivery date between april 23-29th
NO vin,
but they are asking that I send a bank draft BEFORE delivery with all the bank draft details?
Is this common practice?
HELP and thank you!
Don't do it! Do not pay until you have inspected the car and you want to drive it home. You can bring a cashier's check or pay through the app when you pick up the car. You will be able to schedule your delivery date through the app regardless of payment status.
