Thoughts?
Should I spend the $4000 for enhanced autopilot or $8000 for FSD.
Let me know what you think.

It stays with the car so it is transferable to the next owner.Neither. I am happy with what I got in autopilot. Since EAP or FSD is not transferrable, I will sell my MY in 2-3 years and get another Tesla (cybertruck or compact Tesla). Hopefully, by that time, FSD is more mature and won't be more than a $10k option--assuming Tesla just keeps hiking the price of it.
I would think so. I recently sold my 2018 LR RWD 3 and had EAP. Each time it went up the price went up but it was a fraction of the price. It was last at $5K to upgrade (which is the same price if you get on EAP now and want FSD later)I didn’t vote because I am also on the fence. My question is if I get EHA now, but later decide I want the FSD; will my price be reduced if I upgrade later? For example if it cost 10K for FSD will I get it for 6K because I already paid for for the EHA?
I do intend to get the cyber truck, but I have a model X with free lifetime supercharging; so I really never intend to sell this vehicle. Also my Tesla stock will more than pay for my cyber truck as I’m sure the SP will jump dramatically once it is released.

And that is based on today. I'm assuming that the 5K add on will only go up in price. Not down. So, by doing this deal for EAP now, Tesla does well, but any buyer who gets FSD anytime in the future has committed at least 1K more.I don't know about what the prices will be in the future, but I did see on another thread that someone purchased EAP for $4000 and then they had the option to upgrade to FSD for $5000. That would be $9000 total as opposed to $8000 that FSD costs. So, it seems it'll cost you an extra $1000 right now if you get EAP and want to upgrade to FSD later instead of just getting FSD.

Initially I wish to have auto lane change. Quite only feature I’d like from EAP combo.
NoA not really as our trips usually never go as planned. Summon and auto park not for me.
But after driving a bit with autosteer I thought I’d stay put. 4K for ALC when it works too much. And you need really hold steering wheel tight for it to work. Lane departure warning seems quite enough for me and I can just hold a steering lightly and relax.
TACC is most I enjoyed even could be a bit jerky on acceleration and too spooky when car ahead turning away...
You DON'T need to hold the steering wheel for Auto Lane Change to work...I am taking delivery of a new Y this coming Saturday. I have a LR RWD Model 3 from 2018 I purchased new. At that time, I purchased EAP for $5000. Just upgraded to FSD on my Model 3 as it was on "sale" for $3000 and I basically wanted the new hardware upgrade. Don't really care that much about FSD but when and if it ever arrives I know I will get it now. On my Y, I got the FSD as we keep cars for at least 7 years and I think before we get rid of either of them it might have a chance of appearing. If I were not keeping the car that long, and the new cars come with hardware 3, I would opt for the EAP for $4000. I also use Enhanced Summon sometimes at the supermarket or it it's raining out (or just want to be obnoxious and freak people out when my car pulls around by itself and they see me get into the driver's seat). No need for FSD and if by chance you get it in a couple of years and have to pay $5000 then instead of the $8000 for it all now, it's only $1000 dollars more. Better off putting that money into Tesla stock. In a couple of years it will be worth more anyway. Trust me...I purchased the stock in 2013 at $50/share and I could buy a fleet of Tesla's now. Go for the EAP today.Initially I wish to have auto lane change. Quite only feature I’d like from EAP combo.

I bought FSD from the get-go. I know it's somewhat of a "vaporware" still but I figure I was paying for future improvements. Who knows where the software will be in 3-5 years? I mean you can only improve on it, right? When I come to unload my Y, I am betting on FSD costing well over $10k which will help my resale value over the ones without it!
