> 3. "Full Self-Driving" is either a delusion or a swindle, and the continued insistence on it puts me off the brand. I think FSD will happen eventually. What people don't understand is that if you buy FSD now, you're not paying for a feature you get now, you're paying for a feature that you'll get later as it's developed. You're paying for early access in the beta. Also, Elon has stated that the price of FSD will increase over time as it improves. By buying it now, you're insulating yourself from future price increases. That said, Elon's marketing of it is pretty deceptive. He talks as if it's only 6 months away, but you'd have to have had your head in the sand to not notice that he's been saying FSD is < 6 months away for YEARS. If you're spending thousands of dollars on a feature that seems very pie-in-the-sky, then I would hope you'd do research on it first. Even just 10 minutes of research would yield a conclusion that FSD isn't there yet and won't be there for several years. If it matters at all, I've been a Tesla owner for 3 years, did not buy FSD, and will not buy FSD. Autopilot is all I need.
