Should I invest in Tesla FSD for 12K with Model Y

I finally saved enough to buy a Tesla Model Y. Tesla is my dream car. Is it ok to stretch my budget a bit and get FSD now. I am also panning to rent my car to Robotaxis in future. Buying FSD now might be cheaper. Please let know your thoughts. TC: 165K #personalfinance #investments #tesla

Do you have more money than sense? Then yes. Paid for FSD over 4 years ago because of FOMO. Absolutely the stupidest fucking purchase of my life, there's not even a close second. Elon has been talking bullshit and flying around in a private jet funded by idiots like me. Learn from my mistake. Buy the car if you want it, but FSD is bullshit and will not do what they claim on these cars in any useful timeframe and probably ever.

Haha FSD is a scam and I wonder how long Elon has gotten away with the grift. Robotaxis are even worse. Who still believes these šŸ¤£

Donā€™t do it. Save your money.

No. I would return it for the $5k I paid if theyā€™d let me.

Buy it with the expectation that it won't be fully autonomous till atleast another 2-4 years, but its a good feature for now for situations like long highway drives. Also, it's an appreciating asset, the price of it will continue to go up

The only worthwhile part of it is the lane changes with the turn signal. Nav on autopilot is more annoying than useful. 2-4 years is absurdly optimistic.

My friend was telling that FSD will be an appreciating asset and I should get one now..

Teslas are overated imo. Wait 2 years and the cars these established carmakers merc, bmw,audi, are coming out with are mind blowing

Whatā€™s your point? Iā€™m no Tesla hater, but Elon didnā€™t pop these cars in 3 weeks. He was just the first to do it

Recognizing it as red and stopping is the logical thing to do here. IMO Tesla fsd did the right thing..

Wtf

Of course. Because everything Elon promises is always on time.

Enjoy! Try to join the beta program if you can, it's super cool to see the progress

Drive on navigation, summon, and auto peak are all nice to have, but not 12k nice

FSD presale is a con. Itā€™ll be years before real fsd is available, if ever. Even if it came out in five years, at that point you might as well just buy a new car youā€™ll probably want one by then anyway; couldā€™ve had $12k accruing interest/growing in the market in that time. Plus Iā€™m not convinced current Tesla FSD sensor suite will actually be capable of FSD. Despite Elon whining about LiDAR, everyone else still uses LiDAR, including companies closer to FSD than Tesla.
