NEW EAP Trial

[Striker3000s]

You had from the time you picked up your car all the way until last week to buy it at the lower price. It isn't Tesla's fault that you didn't take advantage of it during that time.

After the first trial I was doing overtime to save up the 6K, which I was willing to spend. I didn't want to put any on credit. Then without notice, it goes up to 7K and again, I'm short.

You're correct, my lack of purchase is not Tesla's fault. The sharp price increases are. A notice to all customers saying the price will be going up on X day would have been nice. Gives people the chance to make a good decision.

I got the trial this morning. I do not have nav on autopilot or autopark though. Autopark might be the only thing that would sell me, well that and summon once it's smart enough to get into and out of my tight garage space.

Untrue, the lowest ever offered deal post delivery was 5500. 5500 is offered now.

@Striker3000s was mainly offered 6000 and now 7000 which is a crock of *sugar*.

It's a a mad house at Tesla and no one has authority to just set common place policies.

I would be like....

"Anyone who paid $6,000 is just going to get back $500. Anyone who wants the 5,500 price better get in before 12/31/2018. Last and final chance."

New owners starting Jan 1st, 2019 get trial with car. 14 days for $6,000. After that it's $7,000.

How hard is this?!?

I was just told by email that I would not be getting the trial. Nor could I get the pricing. They will only sell me EAP at $7,000. I asked that it be escalated to someone that could sell me EAP at $5,500 but I assume it will just get lost in the shuffle.

Sad day. I was willing to give them money.

I did the trial for my S some months ago, but never received the trial offer for my 2/1/18 purchased 3 until today. I think Tesla's history is that a customer does not receive multiple free trials although at least one post in this thread suggests otherwise.

I had to enable Nav on Autopilot and Summon in the settings. Not sure about Autopark.

Got the software update yesterday and installed last night. It was 2018.42.4 Today the 30 day trial popped up on the screen so we accepted and it installed. Have not tried it yet but will take a drive this weekend and see how it works.

Nav on Autopilot is not in my settings.
Summon is.

I'm unsure why some view this price change as being any different from others. AWD, paint, EAP, performance have all had unannounced price changes that are met with some minor complaints, and a lot of 'this is just what tesla does, sorry.' It's unfortunate that the timing was not right for you, but I still wouldn't expect Tesla to make an exceptions.

Anyone else's trial disappear this morning?

You wouldn't expect Tesla to make exceptions, that's exactly what they did with the performance price change. They are giving people more options. They can get a 5K credit and drop free super charging. The AWD drive price also went from 5K to 4K back to 5K then 6K then back to 5K.

From what I was told, you have to purchase through the car to the the new price.

There is no mention of that in the Enhanced Autopilot Trial support page.

I know. I'm just telling you what they told me. I don't even get the trial so I can't test it. At this point I don't really know if anyone at Tesla knows anything.

My car is at the service right now, but yesterday I tried to see the price through the MCU and it said US$7000. It's US$6000 online for me. US$5500 was nowhere to be seen.

For those of you who got the trial, are you on 42.4?

It's $7000 for me through the car as well.

I think it will show the discounted (not sure car or online) price at the end of the trial.
