Jeebus, this thread is making me think I should just take EAP off until it has more features and is actually better than AP1...

Hey Folks,
Here's what I think I know (please correct where inaccurate):
- All new cars have the same hardware. The fee merely activates features, pre-order (cheaper) or after delivery (more expensive
...8 cameras...
Well, if you read Electrek, it says "Seven".
Most likely, that's an typo.
Model 3 AP2.1 has an interior camera but I wouldn't count that for the purpose of road condition monitoring/TeslaVision.
It might be there to babysit driver or to document any vandalism from riders when driverless Tesla Network will be activated.
I am not sure whether more expensive S and X would have that extra camera just yet.
I don't know if this is new or not, but EAP on the custom build section of the site now states that FSD has 8 cameras. However in the last 2 weeks of reading the forums it appears everyone here is stating FSD is just a license upgrade. With the AP2.5 did more camera's get added as well?
I could be way off here, just trying to put together all the info since I just ordered a MS 75D.

This implies that EAP uses a database to determine its max speed, based on speed limit?The speed limit database for EAP is not exact, so you have to be aware of that as well.
No, because it currently doesn't do anything more than AP1 did.So in essence, is EAP worth the 5K/6K today?
I think that will depend on how/where you will use the car.So in essence, is EAP worth the 5K/6K today?
Ahh ok thanks, that makes more sense then.It doesn't have additional cameras. It has additional activated cameras for FSD. The 8 cameras are in your car, dormant, regardless if you buy it.

I have received a reply. It provided zero information and did not address my questions.I sent this and a similar text to customer service four days ago. I have not received a response from either. Seems they don't want to put things in writing.
Harmony,
I have a question for you. What "Enhancements" did I purchase when I chose to get the EAP feature. I'd like a thorough list. Ive had my car 8 months today yet, I don't have Rain Sensing Windshield Wipers, highway exit and interchange driving, it doesn't read speed limit signs, the Ultrasonic Sensors don't see vehicles in the next lane, the Audible Forward Collision Warning rarely provides alerts. The car doesn't see pedestrians, motorcycles or bicyclists, Summon won't climb the very slight grade of my driveway, and I don't think the touted four cameras are all being used. My car was delivered with virtually no AP2 options functional. I've received several over the air upgrades, which are nice but, much has still not been delivered. What did I buy?
I'm very upset that the one second performance software upgrade has not, and apparently will not, be sent to my NEW S75D, even though it has the AP2 hardware. Why is my car not considered a NEW S75D when it has yet to receive all the options I purchased? The August Tesla Newsletter states all NEW S & X 75's will receive over the air performance upgrades.
You did me a disservice by not informing me that some options, not considered self driving, could be many months or I guess years, from being activated on my Tesla. I'm enjoying what the car is but, not having a pleasant purchase/new car experience. I haven't been able to get a straight answer from Tesla Support.
I can't recommend to my friends that they purchase a Tesla. Is Tesla delivering the new Model 3 with these same shortcomings. I believe I was deceived when I purchased my car. Will Tesla continue misleading prospective buyers?
Please provide a comprehensive list of options included in EAP, AP2, Summon and what additional enhancements I might expect in the future.
I don't like being disgruntled but, what started as disappointment and frustration has, over all these months, festered into a very rare and intense anger.
Respectfully
Otto Merz
Again, Tesla hasn't seen fit to respond.
I thought it was to make sure no one was using it as a driverless Uber vehicle. I'm sure that's been a real sore point within Tesla.If I had to comment on why an interior camera, I think it is in event of lawsuit. Easier to prove the driver was or was not paying attention in case of an accident with recordings from an interior camera.
I read a very interesting article... which I can try to locate... that laid out a very convincing case that the car's interior is designed to support its ability to be a driverless Uber.I thought it was to make sure no one was using it as a driverless Uber vehicle. I'm sure that's been a real sore point within Tesla.
