It would be a very cool perk to add on existing fs cyber trucks. I am very reliant on supercharger network and have not spent my 2500 on accessories.

Start a petition for all of us early FS owners to get lifetime supercharging?
That is quite disheartening. I totally agree all the FS should get free supercharging. It's like punishing the early adopters the ones willing to pay the premium the ones willing to take the risks. Makes us totally look like fools for not waiting. Someone should tweet Elon about this travesty he's usually pretty good at making things fair.

I tweeted @Elonmusk … if they get enough of them they may listen and agree that it’s wrong.

Hell yea! Let’s get this ball rolling.
How can we start a petition? I have never tweeted before. But the more I think about it just really does not settle well. When I first purchased my Model X in 2019 it did not come with free supercharging then like a week after I purchased it they came out with free supercharging promotion. I called Tesla and they actually gave me the free supercharging promotion. So it can be done. I purchased my foundation late so I'm pretty upset.

No idea. But I’m also prettty upset about this. I think if enough people raise this up then maybe something can happen.

How long have you all followed Tesla, they have done this for many years. 2 years ago I bought my Model S, my actual order wasn’t in yet, but they kept contacting me offering incentives to take one in stock. After 2-3 try’s I took them up on it, fast forward a month or 2 they dropped the price $25K. They absolutely knew they were dropping the price while they were calling folks begging them to buy now for free supercharger miles Included. Plaid buyers lost even more, I think they went down $30K. You seriously think Elon cares? I wish you the best, but wouldn’t expect anything. Best thing to do with Tesla is lease it protects you from this and also allows you to have the latest updates/models every 3 years.

I have to admit that it burns me a little. When I was picking up my truck in March, Tesla would have allowed me to trade in my Model S and transfer the free super charging to any vehicle except the truck.
I asked a number of times in the week leading up to picking up the truck.

Now someone who didn’t take the risk of early delivery and the joys of already having my truck in service for over 2 months out of the almost 9 months since purchase, can get what I was asking for and they don’t even have to trade in a car.

That stings a bit.

I do still really like the truck, but for me and my use case, if Tesla would have told me that if I would be willing to wait for 9 months and they would give me free lifetime supercharging, I would have likely waited.

For me, the free supercharging on my Model S over the past six years was worth at least $15k in charging fees, conservatively.

I just received my non foundation CT 2 weeks ago. If it wasn’t for being out of town for the holidays, I would have delayed my delivery date to the last day of the money, cause I knew last minute shit like this was gonna happen lol

That does sting, they were giving it for everything except the Cybertruck back then. Sorry to hear that.

Does this apply to Canadians as well? Might pull the trigger if it does.
Doesn’t look like it. The free supercharging offer appears on the US order page, but not on the Canada order page.

The situations in the IS and Canada are different. In the US, the Foundation Series was officially discontinued in October, and then the non-FS was introduced. However, Tesla still has surplus FS inventory. They need to get rid of it, but the FS is a lot less attractive when the non-FS is also available for $20K less. So FS incentives are necessary.

In Canada, the FS has not been discontinued, and there is no competition with the non-FS, which has not yet been introduced.

It’s interesting that the free supercharging offer has a start date (12/27/2024), but no expiration date. Tesla incentives typically expire at the end of the quarter, but this one may last until all remaining FS in the US are gone, which could mean First Quarter 2025.

I’m never going to pre order another Tesla again. What a BS.

for the voucher I actually just got $1800 instead of $2500. Does anyone know where I can get help, teal support phone is not good.
I got the same deal but you were given an $1800 credit and free supercharging until Christmas. If nobody told you, that’s a shame. Tesla didn’t inform me either. I just happen to find out on here one day. It shows up on your app under “Specs and Warranty” at the bottom of the front page. Now it shows “Pay as you go” as of Christmas Day.

I do agree this kinda sucks. My truck has spent almost a month of its life so far in the shop for various panel adjustments, a LV battery issues, loose door panels and recalls.

yeah I used the free 6 months, but still the voucher should have been for $2500 (that is what I got in my email at the beginning). Anyways $2500 is a drop in the bucket compared to unlimited supercharge. I would have kept this truck for 10+ years if that what the case.
