Hey everyone, Dennis here from DennisCW! If you're a Tesla enthusiast like me, you've probably heard the buzz: the days of snagging Full Self-Driving (FSD) for a one-time $8,000 payment are numbered. With just two weeks left before this option vanishes (as of the video), Tesla is shifting hard to subscriptions. Today, I'm breaking down my thoughts on upcoming pricing tiers, why now might be a killer time for used Teslas, and what epic deals we could see on Model S and X. Plus, some insider tips on customizations and a sneak peek at Tesla's new automations app.
Grab your favorite mug, and let's dive in!
Tesla's monthly FSD subs have more than doubled in 2025, and with Elon's pay package tied to this, expect a full pivot. The current $99/month (post-trial) is a steal, but Elon has teased price hikes as capabilities improve. No more permanent buys after February 14th—it's sub-or-bust.
Shoutout to Lamar for this spot-on breakdown. Tesla could roll out tiered subscriptions to hit 10 million actives:
And my hot take: A fourth tier—FSD Robotaxi ($299–$499/month). Tesla takes a cut for fleet management when your car hauls passengers (family or strangers) and earns you cash. Daily subs at $10/day? Genius for road trips—hook 'em and reel 'em in!
Quick Advice: Skip FSD on HW3 cars. But for HW4 (new Model Y/3)? Buy now—pair with a 0% Chase card for $750–$1,000 back. Check my referral link here!
Used car prices are sliding pre-tax season (SUVs down $600, luxury $1,000 per Carfax). Tesla listings on CarGurus are trending down too. With new Teslas at 2.99% financing vs. 6–7% on used, it depends—but Facebook Marketplace is gold for negotiating with real owners.
Crazy Find: A 2021 Model Y with 362K miles for $8,900. Still gets 280 miles at 100%! Mega-beater alert.
Selling? Use Plug—they beat offers by $3K–$5K, instant quotes, 2-day buys.
Production ends June, but inventory lingers. Tesla just hiked prices $10K—expect $20K off, 0% financing, free lifetime Supercharging, and FSD to clear lots by Q3/Q4. Lux package perks stay, but post-FSD ban, these might be the only new Teslas with buyable FSD.
