My dude, driving anything more than a basic vehicle doesn't make much economic sense at all, so we are starting from a point of gratuitous spend on "this is a cool tech car that's also very comfy and I feel like I'm in the future whenever I get in".

I'll take it a step further: I don't actually see much value in FSD. What they have that already works on the highways is probably good enough. I didn't pay 15K for it (the price has gone up) but you are right it's probably not worth it. I bought mine used and the only model available at the time had FSD so... I used that as my excuse :)

But my Tesla has actually grown in value since I bought it. I could sell for almost 30K more after almost two years.
