    Bought in October 2019, the Full Self Driving (FSD) option has arrived:
    • 2021.32.22 - has full self driving enable button
    • FSD enable button starts Tesla insurance monitoring for a week
    • If everything passes, I'll be able to use the latest FSD!
    It has been a long time coming but it is industry leading technology.

    You had to pay for it back then bob? Or just a deposit? How much is it?

    For me, $6,000 in October 2019. The next week, it went to $7,000. Now it is $10,000.

    The only thing that bothers me is a senior engineer in charge of FSD left Tesla a couple of weeks ago. We'll soon know if this is a bad sign.

    Our daughter mentioned something about a $10k upgrade (for her 3), guess it was for that. Maybe USD though, and more up here.

    That’s quite a lead-time, ponying up that kind of cash, for a software update still in the works. Testimony to Tesla confidence I suppose.

    Autopilot was always one of my 71 year old, primary requirements. So getting FSD was an easy decision. BTW, I had to pay for AutoPilot when I bought our 2019 Std Rng Plus Model 3. AutoPilot paid for itself three months later.
