Enhanced Autopilot does include enhanced summon and Navigate on Autopilot. I use Navigate on Autopilot all of the time.

Will you buy FSD before the $1,000 increase on July 1st?

Nope. I purchased it years ago and doubt it will be coming anytime soon. Save your money. Tesla has yet to demonstrate the equipment installed along with their visual cameras will be able too achieve Full Self Driving on city streets.
As I don't live in a place with crazy traffic and long drives are pretty empty two lane interstates, No i wont be buying it.
If they kept it at 7k but actually fully delivered on their initial promise (including improving Smart Summon and Auto Park) I would consider it. If they are going to keep bumping up the cost for every basic feature (stop lights are worth 1k?), there is no way I'll ever consider it. Autopilot would handle like 95% of my use cases.

So do you think this feature is worth 8,000 US. Ha not a chance. tHats an expensive baby monitor. Absolutely useless IMO since you still need to basically pay attention and hold the wheel at all times. Whats the point

**** no. I'd spend that on performance parts long before something that would make the car more boring (unless you're a thrill-seeking beta tester).
- Anybody who works in tech views any self-driving auto with a very healthy dose of skepticism
- They just really started figuring out the Roomba after nearly two decades of development. I think a car's high-stakes habitat is slightly more complex...
- On highway, after ~20 minutes of driving, Autopilot is a godsend. The rest of the time, I'm fine with driving. I like driving. I have no interest in being shuffled around the city (unless I'm hammered). But I appreciate that it's absolutely life-changing for people with impaired mobility.

Nobody has ever gotten a refund that I'm aware of. For a while Tesla was even telling people who bought it ACCIDENTALLY in the app to get bent.

Nope. FSD was only $3000 back in 2016 (and was in many ways a different product than what is sold as FSD today). EAP was a separate, 5k, package and hasn't been offered since Feb 2019.
Also no- in-app upgrades have a 48 hour refund window- at least a few folks have gotten refunds on their acceleration boosts upgrades for example essentially using the 48 hour window as a free trial.
Tesla policy said:
I bought EAP on my 2018 and declined FSD. EAP is nice on certain roads and lengthy drives, but features like NOA and Summon are of marginal value to me. TACC is what I use the most. Anyway, my thinking at the time was FSD is pretty far out. Easily 3 years from 2018, but I *STILL* think FSD is 3+ years out now in 2020. So I think I'll get at least 3 years and probably 5 of driving my 3 with EAP and not be missing out on much. I would make the same decision if buying today. No sense paying now for something you won't get value from for 3+ years.

...Not to mention the incentive to stay with Tesla for your next EV purchass FSD transfer would bring. IMO It's a marketing mistake.
I’m getting real sick of my depreciating asset being tied to an ever increasing software license.
If it would travel from car to car (like my software does from computer to computer) then it becomes a more attractive proposition.

I'm not sure what you're confused about.
In 2016, FSD cost $5000 (EAP) + $3,000 (FSD) = $8,000. You couldn't buy FSD without first purchasing EAP.
After July, if Elon is to be believed, FSD will cost $0 (basic autopilot) + $8,000 (FSD) = $8,000
Last I checked $8,000 = $8,000.

There is no shipping or demo'd FSD Tesla yet. Ironically, the Nov 2016 Tesla Video was 'preprogrammed' and geofenced.
AFAIK, neither the Waymo vans or the Cruise AVs are geofenced. Look for their videos on YT.
Nope, no, nee, nein, non, nada, noppes
1, You act like a baby monitor is a bad thing. You know anyone with a baby that said "Nope no baby monitor for me".
2. I have used and loved autopilot for years. 1st with our Model S and now with our 3 as well. Lightly keeping my hand on the wheel has never been an issue for me. After all I need to put my hand somewhere. Lets also not over exaggerate you can remove your hand.Have driven to Florida and back with AP and it was awesome. Couple other general cases that have made AP great. Bumper to bumber Chicago traffic. It is a godsend. Driving home and being tired.
3. Resale value.
Correct me if I am wrong.
When you sell the car the buyer gets the license. You dont get to apply it to your new car as well. With the PC you dont get to transfer the license to say Office 365 to another PC while when you sell the PC to someone else.
