Remember the warranty kicks in at 70%. Could you drive around without issue if you lost 29% of your range? Should not happen but it could.
....The reality is that it's now or never for FSD...
That has been said since 2016. Some one will be saying the same thing 5 years from now. Now shortage of optimism on this topic. Optimism not backed up by reality...., but it will be a complete gamechanger soon. ...
Buying FSD has been buying an out-of-the money option imo.FSD is currently a really nice option, but it will be a complete gamechanger soon. There will be only two kinds of cars, self-driving cars and everything else. You'll be kicking yourself a few years from now for not buying it at today's ~$7000 bargain price.
Watch the presentation and judge for yourself.

Buying FSD has been buying an out-of-the money option imo.
We bought FSD on our first two Tesla’s. What a waste,
Like many early Tesla fans, I’ve made money on actual Tesla stock options. I would have made more had I not gotten FSD. Buying the FSD option shares little in common with Tesla stock options. Not being on time matters to options, and there’s an expiration on the FSD option that many will pass well before FSD. It’s the time in which you’d like to own that car and/or your hardware is sufficient to run FSD.FSD is indeed an out of the money option. But mind you, many of us here on TMC have made boatloads of money on out of the money TSLA options, so that should not be a reason to dismiss it. Elon has made numerous outrageous claims over the years, including making great electric cars, landing rockets, and a neural interface for the brain, just to name a few. He may not always be on time, but he'll get it done. Don't bet against Elon.View attachment 581404
In the last 24 hours...Wow, this is a novel discussion. First time I think this topic has ever been discussed here!
I completely disagree with the first comment. If you can swing the SR+, which it sounds like range is a non-issue for you, pocket the $8K. I would hold off on FSD at least through the end of the year. Elon has said a subscription model is coming. Even If it cost a premium, not being tethered to the car is worth the extra monthly cost IMO.
Range is king is true, if you need it and in a perfect world. If you never are going more than 100 miles round trip, why pay a premium for it? I would block out the noise of people telling you about the 1 time in 3 years where you will need the range. Everyone's situation is different, and do what makes the most sense for you. $8K isn't chump change.
