I'm not requesting a refund now as I see no need to (no telling what the price will be when my order is actually up), but I am disappointed with this pricing list. At the current price (and based on my desired minimum requirements), I can't justify spending $80+ on a car. If my Renegade gives...

I agree. Nobody is forcing anyone to buy a truck here. These are voluntary contract terms. If they are too abhorrent to you, then don't sign and buy another vehicle. One of the many things that I appreciate about Tesla is the standard car price. Yes, they'll go up and down based on...

To be clear, yes the proper use of FSD as described by Tesla today is legal everywhere as Tesla tells you to keep your hands on the wheel at all times. But I'd wager that people are not spending this kind of money for the promise of having to keep their hands on the wheel at all times. No, it...

But what $41k dual motor are you referring to? That's just what I'm not getting. My earlier point only questioned whether the single motor would come into fruition.

True. Whether it would be unlawful fraud, that I'd have to read more up on. I imagine that the law would prohibit such a practice on Tesla's part, but I'm not 100% sure.

Regardless of one's political preferences for such a plan, I'm not sure that such a proposal is set to pass Congress. Part of the problem here is that Dems will only control and absolute bare majority in the Senate, and only then because the VP breaks the tie. With at least one member of the...

I would definitely consider it, especially as I would probably be among the only cybertruck owners in Honolulu initially and, thus, could probably command a pretty penny. But I need to do some more research into how the insurance factor works as well as some other things. I won't lie, I'd also...

The $7k I currently have it reserved for is probably the most that I'd pay, especially as FSD subscription service becomes available.

No, but if you can get dual-motor at $41k, I'd wager that you can get single-motor at far less than $40k once all of the same credits (I'm assuming you got to the $41k for dual motor after EV credits are applied at the state level, etc.) are applied.

I suspect that there will be people willing to pay a small premium (especially if you have FSD at the lower price point) in a situation like this, but I wouldn't make such expensive plans based on such a large uncertainty.

And for those who think such is a worthwhile investment/use of their money, I say more power to them. I'm just not convinced that it is worth it for me to spend that extra money when I likely won't be able to utilize the full spectrum of FSD on the road anytime soon. Do you have something to...

Curious, where would you draw the line? Money has always been an enhancer of speech. If only the mere act of speaking is to be protected, government would be free to shut down a whole lot of mechanisms that we use to get our points across and to petition our government, to include banning...

While I could have, perhaps, been clearer, I thought it was clear enough that I was referring to the actual utilization of FSD (i.e. autonomous driving) as opposed to merely owning the technology. This is why I wrote "road legal" and not just "legal." Indeed, if FSD wasn't legal, Tesla...

Regarding the bolded portion of Electrek article, Tesla getting the loophole to begin with (via lobbying, lawsuits and threats of lawsuits agaisnt the state) was the result of money in politics. I don't have a problem with money in politics and it is constitutionally protected as an enhancer of...

OP, like you, I'm seriously considering not getting FSD. I'm just having a hard time with paying so much for a feature that likely won't be road legal nation-wide (and, even if it is road legal, I'm concerned with how it will react to reckless drivers in a time where the overwhelming majority...
