Question on Tesla

[iddaritho]

We are planning to buy Tesla Model Y ( 7 seater ) , is it better to go with FSD or basic auto pilot is ok 

also I heard about subscription plan for auto pilot as needed, I don’t see any option when ordering ? How does that work out

FSD monthly subscription teesuko baa avasaram ayuthe 

and 7 seater for model Y is a bad idea.. I would rethink about it

7 seater is useless.... paper weight lekka kooda use avvadu tarvata..... Just get a 5 seater config..... Model Y is not a real crossover..... Model 3 frame ne konchem modify chesadu anthe.

Go with basic auto pilot.. you can add it later if needed..

I am not comfortable trusting self driving, so I picked basic auto pilot. The place I live is mostly hilly and single roads and not sure how good is self driving for my driving condition.

If you don't care about $15K and want to try something new, that is for you. It is non-transferrable and I heard some insurance companies will not pay in case something goes wrong(I could be wrong, but read some posts on FB regarding insurance coverage). 

third-row seating has limited leg room and can only accommodate kids. 

Good luck!

We do car pool and want to have 7 seater , only small kids will sit in the back the 5 and 6 year old. 
 

we also plan on getting Sienna, our plan is to buy Sienna but the wait time is longer

Only reason to buy FSD now is to include in loan. 

I would suggest against FSD outright purchase because:
You can subscribe on an on-need basis. 
Tesla ran holiday promos to buy FSD at discounted rates. 
In case of car crash or totaled scenarios - insurance wont cover FSD cost as that is considered an add-on.

Where is the FSD subscription , I can’t see it on website , I want to go for subscription as I am not sure how long we will keep the car

You don't need any. Especially no to FSD - such a trash and you want to pay 10k+ ? 

You can subscribe for a month later and see for yourself

For long drives, you just need auto pilot ... It's auto cruise + lane change. I argue all we need is auto cruise which many started  offering for free
