Note to Tesla: I'm stuck with a Comcast Data plan capped at 1TB a month .... Easy on those uploads.

"All data usage delivered over your home XFINITY Internet service, both downloaded and uploaded, is counted towards your data plan, regardless of the source."
3 GB per day would be 90 GB per month. Still leaves you 910 TB for your personal use. Dare I ask if you come close to that?
If you are in fear of going over your data caps, you can easily remove the connection from your Tesla so that it can't use your wi-fi connection anymore. You'll still receive all necessary software updates.

You can also pay Comcast for unlimited data.
I usually hit around 800GB to 950GB per month. At this rate my Tesla will be using 45GB per month. Considering how bad AP2 is in the Seattle region I'll happily make headroom for more uploads. In fact I wish they would upload more.
EDIT: I loathe Comcast and having to pay them for unlimited data bugs me. Especially with all of the ISPs in downtown Seattle that have unlimited 1Gbps for the same price I'm paying for 250/10. However, in a new development where I live they are my only option.

Yah, I'm in the same boat. I get advertisements (paper and email) offering alternatives. Every one that I call says "oh, sorry..." when they look up my address. And I'm not in a new development. My house is from '57. WTB monopoly removal.Comcast ... having to pay them for unlimited data bugs me.

I've been on the fence for a while about getting a Model X. The number of people complaining about the lack of improvement with AP2 has been a bit disconcerting. This thread makes me feel good that they are actually collecting data and actively working to improve AP2, so it may push me over the edge toward finally making the purchase..
If you can "afford" afford to wait, I would wait it out a bit. I had a dying car with 157k miles. I love my Tesla, even the EAP, but if you have the chance to wait 6 months to see how this all plays out with the EAP, FSD, Model 3, I would wait.
There are rumors of S/x interior refresh. But take that with a grain of salt as it's just a rumor right now. I.e. you could wait for interior refresh but if you don't care, don't delay.

Barely 10 miles of driving yesterday, I'm showing 600MB uploaded and slowly climbing with no driving done (yet) today.
About to embark on a 300mi roadtrip shortly, though. Looking forward to using AP2 on that boring stretch of 87 through New York to Albany, en route to Vermont.

There is no end to this. You can keep waiting and things will keep changing. Sometimes those changes are bad though. I wish I had scooped up a steal AP1 car when AP2 came out. Another big change was the discontinuation of fully customized cars (I got to choose each option and aesthetic choice vs. a bundled choice now). Finally, the change from leather to vinyl was a mixed bag (I like leather but I'd like adjustable headrests. So with Tesla you just buy if you like what you would get now and the rest is rolling the dice.
I'm in Glen Allen, so if you need any help, test drives or want to banter about AP2 i'm happy to help out.

If you want for features or refreshes you'll be waiting forever. Tesla is much more iterative with their cars than anyone else. You will forever have FOMO. The lease on my Audi was up so it was time to finally jump ship.
Oh, I agree on not waiting forever. But we are sitting at an inflection point with the 3 coming out and a month or so from when Tesla has traditional made the bigger changes. If you don't like the new, there are always inventory.
Anyway, sorry for the off topic reply.
Now back to reporting data uploads!
4 miles in the car today. 674mb data uploaded.

I suspect that if you disable the ability for the car to communicate with Tesla from within the main interface it will probably stop all the uploads.
I presume if you toggle the privacy options for video clip sharing, it will also substantially decrease the upload sizes.
