    Stalk or no stalk argument [not] settled

    I just demo drove a Plaid, and had to do a 3 point turn. That was very awkward, slow, and dangerous. I didn't try parallel parking, but that would be just as bad.

    Mac: divide USB into 2 partitions (for dashcam and music)

    For those of you saying the the Partition box is greyed out, be sure the Scheme is GUID Partition Map and not Master Boot Record.

    EAP and FSD: is the hardware currently different?

    Thanks again for your input. My big question I still don't have answered is why Telsa won't. If I understood why, I may have just dropped the request. But when I asked them, I got a lie in response, which just riled me up. That was the start of this post, to confirm with TMC whether there...

    FSD refund attempt: Tesla rep is lying

    The reps are trained to respond to what their management instructs. So I don't blame the rep for being ignorant. It's what her management told her to say. The TMC audience though knows a lot for sure. I think a lot of us see clearly what is happening, and do not accept it as unchangeable.

    FSD refund attempt: Tesla rep is lying

    Elon repeatedly said it was coming soon. In Jan 2017 he even said 3-6 months. You're the smart one who didn't buy FSD up front. I'm the sucker who did, and wound up paying more than you did, even though I was promised the "best price" for buying it up front.

    FSD refund attempt: Tesla rep is lying

    Tam, thanks for your interpretation. "We do not process refund requests" is clearly true, but the reason they gave is not. What I'm confirming in this forum is that Tesla could easily change this configuration, as it's just a setting in the car. There is no hardware difference. And there is...

    EAP and FSD: is the hardware currently different?

    EAP is awesome. FSD is vaporware and I do feel like a sucker for buying it. There are lots of other people on this forum who feel the same way. And you are correct that there are people who feel fine with it. The key here is Tesla could easily supply refunds to the former group if they...

    EAP and FSD: is the hardware currently different?

    I asked Elon. He tweeted it was coming soon. He's been consistent on the very soon, around the corner message. In January 2017 he even said it would be 3-6 months. I am a shopper who pre-ordered a product with the promise of it coming soon and getting the lowest price for pre-ordering, sees...

    EAP and FSD: is the hardware currently different?

    Sounds like you approached EAP/FSD the smart way, as you didn't believe Tesla's story. I believed them, which is why I'm in this predicament. You are correct that this clearly is "Elon Time". But so was the whole Model 3 launch timeline. They did offer refunds on M3 deposits for anyone who...

    EAP and FSD: is the hardware currently different?

    Where I feel misled is that I had no idea the timeframe could be a year or more. Had I know that, I would not have purchased it up front and would have waited. What's misleading was probably not the official Tesla wording on the timeframe, but Elon's tweets that FSD features would be imminent...

    FSD refund attempt: Tesla rep is lying

    I contacted Tesla for a FSD refund, and of course they refused. But the reason the rep gave was a lie. She is saying when my car was ordered with FSD, they installed different hardware which cannot be removed. My understanding is that every car (with or without EAP, with our without FSD) has...

    EAP and FSD: is the hardware currently different?

    That's what I thought too. Thank you for confirming. FYI, I have been unhappy with my FSD purchase, as I feel misled by Tesla regarding it's timeframe. I've asked for a refund, and of course they said no. But I think they are lying to me now as to why they are refusing. I'll make a...

    EAP and FSD: is the hardware currently different?

    My understanding is that all M3 are installed with the same hardware (at least currently), whether ordered with EAP or FSD or neither. Then EAP or FSD purchased after delivery is just a software mechanism, requiring no new hardware be installed. But a Tesla rep is now telling me that no, when...
