I need to get off my butt and get some of these. It seemed strange to me why someone would buy cupholder protectors for cupholders and never heard of such a thing before but after a couple years my cars cupholders look like crap even when I wipe them down. I need to get some asap.
Also the floor mats you got look similar to my Maxspider floor mats and look great. I never cared for the way weathertech mats looked so I never bought them.
Totally worth it. They make cups fit more snug, cans now don't make a bunch of noise, and you can just pull them out and wash them every now and then
Tesla bolsters navigation with new trip planner and map updates plus a new entertainment feature
Tesla quietly bolstered its navigation with a new trip planner option and map updates, but that’s not all. The automaker also added a new feature to an in-car entertainment option, making it a little better for those who might use it.
These updates are part of Software Update 2024.20, which includes Adaptive Headlights in the U.S. and Canada, along with improvements to the headlights in Europe.
However, Tesla is making more changes and improvements to its in-car navigation. Earlier this week, we reported on CEO Elon Musk confirming a new “Avoid Highways” option for those who require a little more adventure during their drive. According to the comments and responses on that piece, it was a feature many were hoping for.
VOYAGE TRIP PLANNER
Tesla hacker green reported that a decompile of some of the changes in Software Update 2024.20.1 showed something called “Voyage” Trip planner.
Likely a rewrite of the Trip Planner it already has, Tesla will probably bring new features with this. It could include the “Avoid Highways” option that we discussed earlier this week, along with better performance and other navigation preferences.
MAPS IMPROVEMENT
Tesla is using Google Places API for points of interest, helping drivers find nearby coffee shops or parks simply by using their maps.
This is a relatively small adjustment but could pay dividends for those who are in unfamiliar areas.
TOWING PROJECTION
A new range projection of what your travel distance is expected to be while pulling a trailer or towing a boat or other car will now be included. This is a handy feature for those who travel and camp, as it previously kept people at bay by having them calculate their own range as they traveled.
Range depletion is increased when towing because of more energy expenditure. Now, it will be easier to pull something as your car will tell you how much longer you can go before you should stop for a charge.
CARAOKE RECORDING
Caraoke is the in-car karaoke feature that Tesla rolled out a few years ago. A great entertainment option, the only thing missing was the ability to record your singing session in your car.
The spoiler was a complete fail. One side of the spoiler has a gap as it's not fitting properly, this is probably due to the heat we've been having causing the spoiler to curl on one side. Tried putting more double sided adhesive, no luck. So this weekend I'm going to take it off. Thankfully, it's only $26

So, will this allow me to put in a route and have FSD follow it? Couldn't figure out an easy way to do that other than put in multiple stops and canceling them as I go.

Just order one from Tesla. That's what you get for trying to shortchange poor Elon.
