*FS series owners: wanted to include you here too but there's only so much I can wrangle out of a poll. The question I'm trying to ask y'all is if you consider just the overlapping LUXE / Foundation Series perks (FSD, FUSC, and Lifetime Premium Connectivity), what are your thoughts on reflection.
BACKGROUND:
Cyberbeast vehicles ordered between August 21, 2025, and February 19, 2026, received the Luxe Package as standard/included (non-removable).
Tesla introduced it alongside a price increase in August 2025 and discontinued it for new Cybertruck orders around February 20, 2026 (while it continued for Model S/X for a period).
Tesla raised the Cyberbeast starting MSRP from $99,990 to $114,990 in August 2025 when the Luxe Package became standard/included.
On or around February 20, 2026, Tesla dropped the Cyberbeast price back to $99,990 by removing the Luxe Package.
Cost differential: exactly $15,000 but included...

Cost differential: exactly $15,000 but included...
- Full Self-Driving (Supervised): One-time capability unlock (equivalent to the standalone purchase option of $8,000 at the time).
- Free Supercharging: Lifetime/unlimited access at Tesla Superchargers for the original owner only (non-transferable upon sale/transfer of the vehicle). (There's no direct breakout of price for FUSC but if we start with $15,000 and back out $8k for FSD, $1,680 for the WPP, $960 for the WTPP, $2,000 for the 4yr maintenance plan, and $400 for premium connectivity, that allocates ~$2,000 ($1,960 specifically) to FUSC.)
- Premium Connectivity: Lifetime access (satellite-view maps, live traffic visualization, music/video streaming, browser, Caraoke, live Sentry camera view, etc.) for the original owner only (non-transferable, would otherwise be $99 annually).
- 4-Year Recommended Maintenance Plan: Prepaid coverage for wheel alignments, tire rotations, HEPA/cabin filter replacements, wiper blades, front camera cleaning, and similar recommended services. Ensures proper calibration for advanced safety/camera systems (hard to find exact cost but assume be $400-$1,000 every year for four years; using $500 x 4 for $2,000 here).
- 4-Year Wheel and Tire Protection Plan (WTPP): Covers repair or replacement of Tesla-installed wheels and tires damaged by typical road hazards (potholes, debris, punctures, etc.), subject to a $25 deductible per replacement (would otherwise be $960 for $20 x 48 months).
- 4-Year Windshield Protection Plan (WPP): Unlimited chip or minor crack repairs (no deductible mentioned for repairs); up to one full front windshield replacement every 12 months with no/low deductible (first replacement often $0 deductible; subsequent ones within the period ~$100 deductible). Performed with precision calibration for cameras and safety systems. Additional replacements beyond the annual allowance follow deductible rules (would otherwise be $1,680 for $35 x 48 months).
