The hardware prep kit necessary for Assisted Driving is standard on Premium LR AWD. Software will be $600 when available later. Early MME buyers will receive $100 credit at time of car purchase, making the software’s true cost $500.
I am so stoked. $500 software update so reasonably priced compared to $7000 for Tesla Self Driving update. I understand the $7000 Tesla Self Driving software update may have more features, but I'm not so sure I want all those extra features.

that is nuts. Looks like Tesla is pricing it high because maybe it is not really ready and pricing it this high will convince buyers to NOT get it now until Tesla is absolutely sure it really works.

Nope. Pricing high because Elon thinks it is worth it and thinks once completed the value will be $100k, so you're getting a bargain now.

You scared me because at first I thought you were saying Ford software update had gone from $500 to $10,000. I don't think the scope of Ford update and Tesla Full Self-Driving are the same, but then I also think the scope of Tesla Full Self-Driving is pie in the sky.

It might be like the Tesla truck. Pay now and maybe in 3 to 4 years it may exist.

Tesla FSD Monthly Subscription Coming Soon

At >$100 a month, it sounds expensive. No mention of cost for a prep package.
Wow that is expensive. No way would I pay that kind of money but then again I do not know if I could trust my life to a machine. Yes it makes you look straight ahead but if I do not need to actually pay attention I could see straight ahead and day dream and not pay attention at all. In short you can be staring ahead but the reality is I might as well be asleep. I would not be able to react soon enough.

I love the concept but not the reality.
