Just my opinion by why would anyone pay $6000 to have FSD.
The autopilot feature itself is a gimmick and borderline dangerous and Elon expects people to pay another 6k for for some other gimmicks??
If FSD were to never be more that autopilot I would agree. But I expect it to continue to evolve and I expect the price to increase as it becomes more advanced.
As it is, I am happy that I have autopilot. I have been driving my Model 3 for less than four weeks. My odometer is 4997, most of that highway driving. Most of that highway driving is trips of one to three hours starting after 6:00 p.m. and a long day at work. Most of that I am using autopilot. I don’t rely on it to be FSD, but it has sure made driving that 5,000 km/month easier than it was a month ago.
Autopilot May be “borderline dangerous” when misused by people who ignore the warnings, use it in city driving, use it in two-way undivided traffic, use it as if it were level 5 autonomous FSD. I have seen no statistically significant evidence that autopilot is “borderline dangerous” when used as intended. I would be interested in seeing such evidence and reevaluating my views if you can provide such evidence.
