    - been there, done that, it doesnt fix anything
    -this is a car that went for say, north of 70k and up when new. First time I've ever had to restart infotainment systems regularly in ANY car. I don't expect this on a luxury sedan.

    lot's of brilliant programmers at Tesla, but they need to fix the problems they've developed, not just add new things. Just my $.02

    Keep in mind - this is a computer that shipped in 2012.

    If you had used the Cadillac CUE system in my 2013 SRX... by 2014 I was ready to scratch my eyeballs out. And their only fix was to /buy a new car/...

    At least Tesla offers you an upgrade path to the latest computer. Who else sells a wholesale computer upgrade for a 9 year old car? That’s a HUGE breath of fresh air!

    yea my 9 year old laptop barely works now...how dare the industry innovate and make old hardware obsolete.

    The fact that Tesla is even pushing updates for your hardware is beyond me. You never needed to restart any other cars infotainment system because it was locked to a single firmware since day 1 and never changed.

    If you want the same experience just ask Tesla to roll back your firmware to what it shipped with when you got it

    Fully expecting lots of fluff and toys, and nothing useful.

    If only they would roll firmware back...

    Then maybe early adopters could supercharge at advertised speeds and drive with advertised range.

    You are acting like updates only provide new functionality when in reality they also take existing functionality away over time. Not a good trade off in my book.

    Can’t wait to get home in about 2 hours. Currently at Church for the Christmas Mass. Could this this be what we have all been waiting for.

    It’s interesting how a large number of Tesla owners are already on 2020.48.12.1 making me believe this is the holiday upgrade and features would be available soon. Who knows maybe tomorrow on Xmas day!

    This has been covered about a hundred times already. Tesla pushed 48.12.1 as quickly as possible to fix a super nasty security issue. There are no magic beans in it waiting to activate.

    You get what you expect out of life. For that reason, I’m certain you will whine, complain about it, and hate it.

    I expect I’ll love the update once it’s sent. For that reason, I’ll spend time enjoying it. :)
