Feature Request: I would like the ability to turn driving lights on or off manually. I am a big fan of having the lights come on at dark or when it rains but sometimes for safety reasons I want my lights on in the day and sometimes I would like to turn them off. I imagine having a menu option like my iPhone's flash option would be easy to understand and operate.

Feature Request: When using the hands free menu to create a new Slacker Radio station, the current music is muted. When the car accepts your request for a new station it continues to play the old song for a second and then plays the new song. Please refine the procedure that after the initial song is muted the next music is the new song, not one second of the old song.

Feature Request: Easy suspension raise/return option.

My sedan has the air suspension. When I get to a troublesome spot I can raise the car. Apparently the GPS software will remember the raise/lower the car when that location is reached. My problems is that it is unsafe to navigate to the control screen while in busy traffic. I would like to have a raise/return(lower) option available at the top of the screen.

"ALLOW DRL TO DEFAULT TO "ON" UPON VEHICLE ENTRY"
When I arrive at a location in the dark and choose to sit in the car for a few min, I can shut off the head lights and shut off the Day Running Lights which is nice. When I later return to the car, the head lights default to auto, but DRL remains off. I would like to see DRL default to "on" because its easy to forget to turn them back on. In some states the insurance companies offer a discount for DRL. For those that have no interest, perhaps tesla could allow us to choose "default DRL on or off"
