Reserved 7/16/2021 RN11532 and received order invite today! Was planning on getting the tax credit next year, so I was torn on pulling the trigger. Ultimately, we decided we actually wanted the additional Foundation series perks and put my order in today. Tesla must be going through the reservations a lot quicker than I expected with a lot of people passing on the Foundation Tax and waiting till next year. It’s been a long wait, and my wife said just do it! Gotta love her!

Congrats! Right decision. Maybe not for everyone, but if you want the foundation options, the ā€œtaxā€ is like $5k. I got mine and my only regret is hesitating and not ordering sooner. You’ll love the truck.
Perfectly said!!

I keep reading ā€œFS is $20k moreā€ or ā€œFS tax of $20kā€ but it’s not even close to that.

If you don’t want FSD, cyberwheels, white interior, $2,500 voucher, all-weather mats, and all the other goodies, thatā€˜s awesome, and FS is not for you. Wait for non-FS.

But the $5k ā€œskip the waitā€ cost is easily worth it to me!! I’m just bummed that I waited two months before configuring. This truck is amazing. And once FSD drops, it will be even more so, haha!!

You still feel that way about the options after FSD price reduction?

FSD is a wildcard. If they get it to unsupervised in the next 5ish years, the value of the $8000 FSD is MUCH higher… supposedly it is about as cheap as it is gonna be as it gets better and better.. but that’s very speculative

Yes, I do, but that all depends on your individual situation.

100%.

It was a near wash when FSD was $12k. Now, it’s closer to $5k extra, though that was before the new $2,500 voucher!!

I understand that the ā€œvalueā€ for some of the extras is hard to pin down. But, it’s nowhere near zero. And I was 100% getting FSD.

But wash or not, to get this amazing machine many months earlier than I would otherwise is easily worth the $5k to me. As they say ā€œyou can’t see what’s comingā€ and I’m so grateful to enjoy this truck now vs sometime in the not guaranteed future.

Well said! Can’t wait for my chance to configure!
