I would just not get FSD, but... Yeah, that would open them up to a massive (half a million member) class action lawsuit.
Although anything has some probability, I would put that at a very low probability. This is just the way they do things. When you reserved the truck you were asked if you wanted to add FSD at some price, so it is baked into your quote. If you added it later they know what the price was then.
Brilliant! After reading this I just ordered my 3rd cybertruck, the single motor/FSD.Well Elons way of telling FSD price will go up an delivering on the promiss (as he often does) worked again......
It boosted Tesla sales.
All though I had ordered 2 CT early (with FSD), yesterday I decided to "add" a third.
This time a single motor with FSD, for local use (range/speed not an important thing).
But around 20'k (by 2023) for FSD on a 40'k car is a 50% mark up compared with ordering today.
It will be delivered late 2023/24 , I might oppt for an even later delivery date.
By then FSD will be working well, allowed by law, but be a very expensive option to buy.
Robotaxi might be up and running or something close (T....'s UBER)
The truck will be rare in Europe and people will want to rent it.
It will "earn its bread" and make some extra revenue.
Do not say "It won't be sold in Europe"
Tesla will realize that the demand is world wide, not only US of A.
Tesla will want to profit from it, as soone as it has increased the production capacity.
Solution: Just build it at GiGa4 Berlin.
From there it can be deliverd cheaply by rail, or drive it self to the customer, even to Sibiria.
I would love to see the face of the custom officials when the empty car stops at the border with the paperwork stuck behind the windscreen.
I can only think of one down side....
If it all does not work out the reservation will be canceled and I lose 100$ max.
thanks for the help
Elon just confirmed my theory about the truck taking you to the hospital and you won't even have to ask it, it will be watching you.
I saw the interview and in order for Tesla to have proof positive that you are paying attention they have to be paying attention to you. I for one think it is great, and if I had a medical emergency I would want the car to take me to the hospital.
I see people behind the wheel that look like they had their heart attack an hour ago. They just look that way. They would never make it home and end up in cemetery instead every time they turn on FSD. Too much automation man...... when does it end?
Time to chill. I am sure that as long as FSD isn't engaged you will be able to disable all this watching behavior. They are probably just saying that if you have FSD engaged (your choice) there are other things they can do 'for' you. You don't want it, you can probably disable the home/hospital thing.
We have FSD on our Model 3 and have never used any of its features. Only on road trips do we use autopilot and those (road trips) have been pretty non-existent since Covid-19 became the new normal. I must say that the autopilot worked very well, and I have watched with great interest the FSD Beta videos ... Tesla seems to be making great progress there. I hope that eventually FSD will be able to detect environmental conditions (snow, rain, dust, dark, etc.) and do the right thing. That would be awesome. I have been quite upset at the folks that attach weights to their steering wheels so that they can go to sleep on autopilot; that is why I want Tesla to monitor the driver. There should be no way to easily bypass the requirement that the driver be in control.Just horsing around. If I pay $10K for something, all settings will be on
I was told by the sales person when I reserved the truck that by selecting FSD at that time locked me in for the price at that Time which was $8,000. If I didn’t, the price would be whatever price increase it went to. I locked mine in at 8,000.
