Fuck Tesla and any/every other automaker for switching to subscription-based anything for features. As if the fuckstick hasn't already raped people on price enough as it is. The board is completely lost and a bunch of idiots to keep fumbling over Lord Elon's decisions.

LOL who are these idiots buying their crappy cars? You only have yourselves to blame. Elon is just playing you like a fiddle.
The only cases I've heard that fit this, is some of the old model S where "free supercharging" got removed from vehicles that were resold through Tesla.
Do you have a link to cases where functionality actually got removed from vehicles sold privately directly? I wouldn't be surprised if it happened, I just haven't heard of any.
They rolled this update out mid-journey, and I had to scramble to swap seats with the manequin driver. Not cool, Elon.
Not. Cool.
Tesla is already a failing company. This will only accelerate their decline.
You don't own a tesla, you just borrow it.
You can't get a refund if you've been paying a subscription for a missing product.
Tesla: if you persuade at least 10 million idiots to subscribe for fsd (and reach a lot of other impossible targets) we will give you one trillion dollars
The Nazi: hold my ketamine
If they want a subscription based car. Then at the very least I want to "rent" a car under that subscription, and not just one car. Whatever car I choose and for how ever long I want.
Oh that will never happen? Cool I'll keep my 20+ year old car with no data gathering.
But... I thought Tesla didn't have full self driving.
It's what they call their lane-assist/cruise control.
They were supposed to stop using the term but the article might not be caught up.
I've used and and it seems like full self driving. Maybe that's why it keeps killing people.
Destination to destination? Stop signs, residential corners, merges, and blind mountain corners? In fog and road spray?
I bought my model 3 with fsd in 2019, back when the only thing Elon talked about publicly was the push to increase ev adoption. Always hated the guy, but loved the car. Again this was before he came out as a full blown Nazi.
Not defending him, I think he's a moron who hired really smart engineers to build a great car. I think his drug addiction and Nazism and stupid decisions have ruined the company, and fuck it I don't even care about it anymore. Fuck Nazi Elon.
That out of the way, yes. Destination to destination, day or night, rain or shine, stop signs, lights, roundabouts, u turns, merges, overtaking, bridges, tunnels, pedestrians jaywalking, handles it all.
It's not perfect, while it slows down in school zones, it doesn't actually read the posted speed sign and goes faster than it should, it does weird decisions and jerky moves at very low speed in parking lots, of the address you entered is not a coordinate of the parking lot, it will pull over and disengage on the road in front of the building regardless of whether that's allowed there. It does still make some mistakes occasionally, so I never trust it to actually not pay attention, but it drives me everywhere.
I think this could be legally interesting (I'm no expert), because with the different kind of contract the lessor's duties change. Especially regarding bugs or mistakes of the vehicle.
Evil company does evil shit. Then again roads will be safer if fewer people have access to it and more annoyed drivers could potentially be a good advertisement for public transport. It‘s not all bad.
Would this not be grounds for a massive class action lawsuit? FSD was marketed as a feature when the cars were sold.
The cars that were sold with the one-time payment get to keep it forever, but if you were to buy a new Tesla now, you would need to pay monthly.
But please don't buy a Tesla.
Although I wouldn't be surprised if you sold your grandfathered Tesla that it cancels the lifetime FSD and therefore brings your resale down despite probably paying more upfront
Well that should cut down on the deaths and the lawsuits from those deaths at least.
