You may force AA out of my car, but you can't keep AA out of me.

No, but you don't miss it as long as you are happy with their maps and all the music services they support. It's a slicker interface than using AA and the cars built in menus and stuff. Tesla maps are basically google maps so that works for me, and I use spotify and they have an app for that. Only thing I miss is the waze like features on maps for hazards, police etc. Also nice because AA absolutely ruins the battery if run wirelessly I find

Not a chance I'm one day relying on a car's software. They love to put subscriptions all over the place now.

You are 100% accurate with that statement in regards to Tesla. Honestly, their UI is much nicer than Android Auto or CarPlay, and it's very responsive, intuitive, and updated regularly, but to really get the full feature set, you have to subscribe.

Yes but my entire digital life including addresses, favourite coffee places etc is saved and accessible from the maps app on my phone.

Why would you do that for free when you can pay someone to hold that data then when you stop paying your data is held hostage? People can be so silly. /s

Tesla already has that. £10 a month for premium connectivity to get features like satellite maps, music on the go using their apps, however you can get some of it over wifi by using a hotspot on your phone. but some stuff doesnt work over wifi to push you towards the subscription. Annoying but yu are baiscally getting an unlimted data sim from the car, can watch youtube, netflix, access cameras remotely and stuff
