I have a huge issue with how they handle pricing and all of their software upgrades. I would have no issue with them crediting a % of your FSD purchases to a new car. FSD will always be a balance of software and HW costs so I can see why it does not transfer. When you have a major company that...

I welcome the increased competition. unfortunately we won't really see any added benefits from said compeition till they start delivering to customers.

That would be a nightmare at least near me in AZ. 80% of spots are ALWAYS filled now I can only imagine what it would be like if other car makers had access.

Elon was smart he knew that his advantage in both software AND hardware would evaporate as the years passed. That is why he sunk a ton of money into the supercharger network. Most of the people I talk to when discussing EV's always end up saying the same thing. Tesla is pretty much the only...

I agree I have been arguing this point offline with people for a while now. If a car needs AP hardware upgrade I have no issue with that being a line item charge but this nonsense with the licensing is a joke.

FSD is NOT an investment in the future because it is tied to the life cycle of the car. Do we have data showing that Tesla trade in value covers the full cost you paid for FSD?

1k/month that is most definitely not going to be the cost. It would be worthless anyone who can afford 12k/year is going to already have FSD. I am sure someone at Tesla is doing the math on how long the average FSD purchases is keeping their car to come up with a ballpark value. Let's say...

I am waiting on price drop or range increase before getting a Y.

This is why I laugh when fanbois are all like your car is an appreciating asset! Cool then why is Tesla devaluing cars?

You buy it used from Tesla direct. Anything else is a crapshoot.

I really feel like it depends how new your car is. If you got in when it was cheap you probably feel OK with how far EAP has come etc. If you are buying a new car the price is pretty prohibitive and probably not worth it. I just joined the Tesla family spending 65k+ on a 2018 Model X and I just...

S179 was the ONLY reason I opted for the X over the S or Y.

Anything that might dilute his control or influence would be a mistake. I feel like the legacy automakers are too top heavy and which kills innovation. Elon can do some head scratching things but at the end of the day I feel like his ability to cut through the BS pushes Tesla and the tech forward.
