I've been really struggling with deciding on what to get as my next vehicle:
2021 SR+ base (42k after tax)
2021 SR+ w/FSD (50.5k)
2018 LR RWD w/FSD (46.5k - direct from Tesla) - VIN indicates it's a 2018 Q4 production date
This will be the first EV in our house and we'll be able to charge from home. My daily commute is about 20miles round trip, but we will try to use the car as often as possible. Not many road trips - the most distant spot would be around 300miles one way 4x a year. Although I know I could compromise by buying a new LR AWD, if I'm spending more $, I'd rather have FSD.
So now - I struggle choosing the more expensive FSD option because it has less range, even though it will be the newest version. I've read the "go with the most range" mantra so many times, I think it stuck pretty hard. So now I have a bit of analysis paralysis.
(Side question - how accurate do we think ABetterRoutePlanner is for the new 2021+ models/ranges?)
