@elonmusk @Tesla I’d love to. I paid for it on four two cars in australia, starting almost a decade ago. When are you planning to enable it for me?

.@Jason saw version 3 of Tesla's Optimus robot: "Two Sunday's ago I went to @Tesla with Elon. I saw Optimus 3. I can tell you now, nobody will remember that Tesla ever made a car. They will only remember Optimus and that he is going to make a billion of those. It's going to be the most transformative technology product ever made in the history of humanity."

Hey @elonmusk, I put down a reservation on a Cybertruck immediately after you revealed it in 2019, locking in the FSD price. Is @Tesla going to honour that offer to lock in FSD pricing when @cybertruck finally makes it to Australia? 🇦🇺

Tesla will stop selling FSD after Feb 14. FSD will only be available as a monthly subscription thereafter.

@Tesla V14 drives you door to door - but not having it drives AU HW3 owners … mad :)

FSD Supervised v14 drives you from door to door No other car can do this
Sawyer Merritt@SawyerMerritt

Jason Cammisa on trying @Tesla FSD V14 during an hour long trip after being critical of FSD in the past: "I had to eat my shit and my words; This f**king car drove us the entire way, expertly, making lane changes whenever it wanted, with nothing dangerous. No jerks, no side-to-side. Beautifully smooth. It f**king pulled into the parking lot and backed itself into a parking spot. And then it drove us all the way back to San Francisco; This is door to door amazing. Couldn't believe it."

@colster6000 @RichardSndor The fundamental issue right now is lack of communication about these issues, to long term customers. Plenty of funds going to advertisements and lining up happy influencers to spruik new car sales. No resource directed to respecting and communicating to existing customer base.

@RichardSndor @simonhackett Your priority for FSD (fairness to HW3 owners) is different to Teslas (prioritise development of FSD to be as good as it can be as fast as possible). I understand your POV but I disagree they should hold back new versions once they are ready. I hope V12 is out for HW3 Aus soon!

“Thank you for your loyalty”? Gah. After 8+ years on multiple cars, how about just delivering me the outcome I pre-paid for, on the cars I paid for it to be on…and at least tell me *when* you’ll be doing the HW4 hardware update to make it happen, because FSD clearly needs it…

@colster6000 @RichardSndor We just need @TeslaAUNZ to make a statement to paying customers, vs our collective guesswork and imagination about what they *might* be thinking/doing. Meantime the only public comms is national airport advertising for FSD(S) being here now. Except for where it isn’t …

@RichardSndor @simonhackett Because it takes time, money and resources to create a new version, so why create a V12 for Aus rather than V13? I expect they are actively working on a V13 for HW3 in Aus so it should maybe be a matter of months before it is released now?

@colster6000 @RichardSndor I drove a HW3 vehicle with FSD-Supervised in the USA last year. The commitment we paid for was for Full Self Driving (not ‘supervised’). The commitment for that included any necessary hardware updates. Right now the air is full of the smell of burning bridges. No communication.

@colster6000 @RichardSndor All of which may be technically interesting, but the reality is that there is a broken commitment that needs fixing. I don’t mind how they fix it, but they need to fix it. Upgrading vehicle hardware is the obvious way.

@simonhackett @Tesla Yeah, no argument from me on that front. Was just curious about how widely that offer was going out, and whether it might be model-related.

@tbtechy I don’t know whether it’s vehicle specific. We bought FSD on an S, and X, and a 3 and a Y. I paid thousands more each on the S and X to bring them up to HW3 , to avoid losing cell coverage when 3G ended. I strongly believe it’s on @Tesla to take it to HW4 if that’s what’s needed.

@simonhackett I bought FSD with my 2019 Model 3, but haven't seen this email yet. Any idea which of your vehicles it relates to? If you bought FSD for an older S or X it might be harder for Tesla to retrofit than a 3, maybe.

@13arm13arm And they know their commitment was to upgrade vehicle hardware if necessary for FSD. The time to schedule that is … Now. They can afford it, we pre paid for that upgrade a lot of years ago.

Hello @TeslaAUNZ … can you read the below? I’d love a reply to my questions. I don’t want a new car, I just want what I paid for. Yours sincerely, your first and oldest customer in this country. Our family currently has seven @Tesla vehicles.
