'OMG She's Addicted': Wife Wants Tesla Full Self-Driving Subscription. Is It Worth $8,000?

"The FSD package is described by Tesla as "a suite of advanced driver assistance features that can drive your Tesla vehicle almost anywhere" and "will make lane changes, select forks to follow your navigation route, navigate around other vehicles and objects and make left and right turns." The video's caption declared, "She's ridiculous! Got addicted to the Tesla FSD and drove all around town with it. Now she can't live without it." Bob mentions that the self-driving feature costs $99 per month."

"Bob mentions that the self-driving feature costs $99 per month. The feature can also be purchased for a one-time fee of $8,000 (which he mistakenly says is $9,000). His wife declares that the price is worth the convenience. "I didn't have to drive it all day," she shared. "I saw you pull out of the garage with full self-driving," he added. "You didn't even have your hands on the steering wheel or anything.""

""I could never!" shared one commenter. "Anything automatic freaks me out." "I always steer but it is crazy, I don't trust it enough yet," wrote another. It should be noted that while the feature is self-driving, Tesla specifies that supervision is still required. The Tesla FSD Q&A specifies that the feature "is an advanced driver assistance system that is intended to be used only with a fully attentive driver. It does not turn a Tesla into a fully autonomous vehicle.""

A TikTok video shows a woman who became enthusiastic about Tesla's Full Self-Driving (FSD) package and urged purchase. The FSD package offers lane changes, route-based fork selection, navigation around vehicles and objects, and automated turns. The feature is available for $99 per month or a one-time fee of $8,000, with a mistaken verbal figure of $9,000 mentioned. The wife described the convenience and reduced driving demand, while viewers expressed divided opinions and safety concerns. Tesla specifies that the system is an advanced driver assistance tool requiring a fully attentive driver and not full autonomy.
