Judging by some of the comments here, you'd expect Tesla to release a manual... Really, outside of a sports car with plenty of room to enjoy it, they aren't convenient. A manual in typical commuter bumper to bumper traffic is part

I was very disappointed to find it on a 2015 model as well. The "staingate" name is odd, it's definitely not staining, the laminate just wipes right off with little effort.
