Much greater FSD use. With more FSD use the roads become safer and other car manufactures are visibly shown to be further behind. Lower insurance cost for drivers. Both of which will help Tesla sales. (And eventually will reduce advertising income from other car makers)

That is my understanding. Tesla is encouraging the use of FSD. Now if only their insurance was priced lower than my current insurance.

My understanding is that Safety Score is turned off (or at 100%) whenever FSD is used.

There are plenty of reasons to have an X, ease of entry being the biggest one.

They look hungry and have big eyes and a sad face.

While true, people still have interest rate sticker shock. Even if the actual payment is lower, that doesn't sink in.

That's true with any loan where rate > 0 and worse for long term loans. The only way to reduce cost is to pay it off early.

I believe that is what each billion consists of. The amount was something like $90B. Correction $60B not 90.

A Tesla ought to really look as if it is a Tesla (or Cyber) to promote brand awareness. If it looks very different, then more education will be required. The more people see Teslas on the road, the more they will consider getting one.

You got it. I don't cycle in Texas for obvious reasons. (I'm might if $TSLA really goes down well below double digits.)

Can't wait for the, umm, unboxing video.

Agreed. Although I nitpick FSD, I wouldn't be without it. I've driven at least 45K miles on FSD (mostly highway until the last few V11 releases).

So will this be similar to Star Trek movies? Every other one is good.

That's a whole seven cars. Seven cars, which might be due to shipping, is not a trend.

At least, not the public one.
