Great questions. I think dangerous or damaging actions (overriding FSD or vomiting) would be fully covered by insurance like Uber or Lyft uses. Your credit card and verified identity on file with all those sensors and cabin cameras should be a significant deterrent as well. :sneaky:
I am trying to work out some creative financing to purchase 12 CTs. A home loan can get me 2/3 there. Anyone have any creative financing solutions or know who has the lowest interests rates?
There is a chance that the CT will be worth a lot more then the pre-order purchase price, especially if...
Me too. I'm hoping Elon knows something all the analysts don't. like the exponential rate the machine learning is improving. There is also more talk about how there is no laws preventing full self driving right now. Maybe we dodge the regulatory bullet by just taking personal responsibility...
That is so useful. Thanks. My dream is to own a small fleet of CTs. I can only finance so many at a time. Pre Ordering 12 is easy. Taking possession will be the real trick. Any ideas on creative financing? Would Tesla let me finance that many if they thought the resale value was higher than the...
Sounds good to me. A while back I heard hat all Teslas have a battery pack that can drop down and be replaced robotically with a charged one. Maybe that is the future for a premium service.
Right. I can get 80% of my home value and maybe some from a few co-signed car loans. I heard a Shark say once that "a loan was the stupidest thing you could do as an entrepreneur! The only thing you will know for sure is how much and when its due! You should be more creative" Any ideas?
Great insights thank you! My requirement is that the regulators have evidence that FSD is safer than humans. Once it's safer than humans I think that's all that matters. Elon believes that the new ML will surprise everyone with its capabilities. So far all we have seen are algorithms not ML. It...
Elon said the price of FSD will continue to go up until it is unaffordable. He estimated about $100,000.. I would recommend locking in your price now with a simple $100 deposit.
For me the killer feature would be a mid gate. Allowing you to get access from the cab to the closed truck bed. When FSD hits you can climb back there on your air mattress!
Is it really a risk to bet on Elon with a $100 fully refundable reservation fee? Especially considering that he promised the price of FSD will continue to go up until it is not affordable. Elon estimated the value of FSD to reach $100,000.
Elon appears to be very serious when he says FSD is very close and will be compete by this year. He's been known to be off on his delivery dates in the past but I doubt if someone who meets with his FSD Team every week is off by 10 years. All your points however are reasonable.
Those are some good thoughts. You have me thinking ..... Elon is convinced that FSD "functionality" will be complete this year with "certainty". He says that the neuro network is learning very fast and we are at 99 percent now. Just have the "long march of 9s (.99999999) to go" for the 5x better...
I know its weird but I was on the site last week and noticed the price was $10,600 for FSD and my stomach went into a knot. I thought I waited too long. Then I noticed it said CA in the top right for region and I changed it to US and the price went back to $8000. Wierd I know, But glad to hear...
Now its pretty obvious that Elon plans on the CT to be the backbone of his global Robotaxi network. They are cheap to reserve, very rugged, and will have the latest battery and FSD software. The question is... How will they all get charged?
