Taking on the persona of a boring consumer, who has had to go into the dealer to get several updates with their unconnected car, and sometimes charged for it ($200 to $700), I don't see this as bad, if it's done well.

That doesn't strike me as a tradeoff based on a realistic assessment of the likely outcomes. For example, VW issued updates for the 2012 GTI only until 2018. Meanwhile, even if Google or Apple were to stop operating their maps services, you could switch from one to the other, or you could switch to OSM or whoever steps in.

#9I'd venture to say that this locker function being delayed is a good thing. It'll force people to learn how to drive their truck off-road instead of hitting the Locker button, getting themselves stuck even worse, and then blaming Tesla.

Maps also caches tiles along a route when you plan a trip and if it thinks you are on an unmetered internet connection.
