Yeah, what Tesla says, and what it has are very different.

I’m personally not concerned with what they say. I have FSD.

Is it “full self driving”? Absolutely not. Is it close? Also no.

Is it worth $15k. Again, no.

Is it really, sometimes freakishly good? Yes.

Would I rather have a system that operates at all speeds and conditions with driver supervision than one that only works on certain roads in certain states at certain speeds without supervision? Absolutely.

I’d rather be a pedestrian on the same road as the Mercedes than be a pedestrian within a mile of the Tesla
