I agree 100%. Who spends tens of thousands of dollars on a product that they can't get their money back on if they don't like it? <--- I'll answer my own question. Super rich.

But at least we have the word Plaid on our trunk instead of that stupid square.
Kind of makes our cars limited production vehicles! I’m sure I’d see a much higher resale value if I decided to sell.
The funny thing about that is that the limited early deliveries of the Plaid had the square, then when they went to regular customers it went to the letters then back to the square.
The most rare Plaids have the wood interior.
There’s nothing subjective about it. Do I have “console quality gaming”? No, I do not. My “refresh flagship model S” isn’t capable of running Steam. Sounds pretty objective to me. Did not get what was advertised.
FSDj is complete garbage. It might not be for Model 3/Y owners as the FSDj v11 thread has proven, but for Model S it has been straight ass. I have many videos that I have posted in that thread of my experiences. There is never a no intervention drive. Especially with the latest version where it just takes random turns even though the GPS clearly indicates for it to go straight. The spill the coffee slamming of brakes at red lights, phantom braking, unnecessary lane changes, wipers that just don’t work during the rain and randomly wipe when it’s not raining, rogue turn signals that just go on and off without any upcoming turns, auto park that does 10 turns going back and forth to back into a spot, the list goes on. That’s once again not what was advertised. Here is what was advertised 4 years ago, and I have yet to see this happen.
I’m glad that you have your opinion of FSD, and it’s awesome that your experience is good, but mine isn’t. Just because your experience is good, doesn’t mean everyone else’s experience is good, try to think about this situation from outside the box.
And that’s the lesson I learned the hard way with Tesla. Unfortunately I fell for all of the shills and their nonsense, thinking they’re legitimate people who are making legitimate reviews. It was the alpha fan boys that were mentioned in the post above.
Live and learn.
This is exactly my experience with FSDb. I am amazed when I hear people claim they made zero intervention drives. Maybe they don't mind pissing off everyone driving around them.

I have the same in the MSLR...
I went to a EV show when I got it and there was a Plaid with the Carbon fiber and like 4 or 5 people asked if I had the upgraded version because the interior was so much nicer.
I hate the CF Tesla uses.

Agreed; looks like cheap plastic to me - and scratches like a MoFo.
Well…you aren’t the only one. Woz fell for it multiple times too.
Best to get first had experience.
I paid 5k during the fire sale for TACC/AP/EAP/FSD since I originally purchased my car with none of it. For that price, I felt it was worth it. I certainly wouldn’t pay todays prices for FSD.
But today I can purchase a MSLR for 30k less than I paid for my 2017 S90D and includes over 100 more miles of range, basic AP and many other hardware improvements. So I’d say that’s a pretty good change especially considering inflation. I just wouldn’t buy FSD for it for 12k since basic AP really is sufficient for my use.

You have spoken for me.
Your situation isn't what everyone else is going through. Your opinion of FSD isn't everyone else's. = Subjective.
Is it a FACT that FSD is garbage? No - It is for you, but it's not fact because it's not for everyone. Thats what Subjective is. Your opinion = subjective.
Tesla makes cars = fact. It's not opinion and not subjective.
Tesla makes good cars = subjective and matter of opinion.
As I stated earlier - The feature that Tesla made where the car drives itself - drove me today from my driveway to Schaumburg Il Tesla (46 miles away) to pick up 2 front end speed sensors - no interventions. I don't need a video or anyone else's opinion. Mine works and fulfills my expectations.
I understand that my experience is unpopular in this forum and that there are so many people caught up in the name of the product and the wishes of Tesla as to how it works. I could care less about what Tesla says. It has just gotten better and better every year I've had it. Whatever it's called.
I'm sorry you wasted your money. I didn't. (on the same product)
I have over 150k miles using the product and couldn't be happier with it. I'm saying this strongly because positive comments are not usually represented when people are happy. Complaining is todays standard.

Frankly, if I was running the company I'd do the same. Run through the wait-list and sell as many $100k+ trims as I can. The number of people who can actually afford a $100k vehicle however, is small. (Too many people over-leverage themselves with unproductive debt.) I personally don't think it will take them too long to run through the list.
I definitely hope it wont take long to run through the list, as I have cash money for my beast CT if they want it.
Tesla, if you are reading this forum - I'm ready.

As I've stated over and over - the last step to a discussion like this is to get personal. Call me whatever you want.
Name another system that will get me from my driveway to Naperville Il Tesla Service Center (32 miles) with NO interventions. If you are ever in the Chicagoland area - I'll show you how my system works.
Please participate. Name another system.

That's another way to say FSD is sweet!
