So like cucks people were paying for something that their car already had offline, both hardware- and software-wise.
Tesla actually market it as a positive.
Car manufacturers have to setup different manufacturing lines to provide different feature levels. Tesla argue this makes them more expensive. Tesla cars have all features installed, just disabled and the optional extra packages are cheaper compared to their rivals as a result.
To be honest there is a certain logic, if you've ever been in a Ford Focus LX (bottom range) its pretty clear they had to spend quite a bit of money on more basic systems. I honestly thought each LX was sold at a loss
You can get any color you want as long as it’s black.
But also fuck Tesla if I own the computer and the seats so I can do whatever I want with them
While I'm not a fan of many of these things, it locked behind a one time fee is better than these subscription models many are coming out with.
I hate that you are right. How did we manage to fuck up heated seats. It’s literally just supposed to keep our asses warm. This ain’t some complex software intensive thing like navigation
Pay 19.95 per month for your brakes to work!
For no extra charge, you get standard braking ability.
For emergency braking, you can either pay $19.95/month OR $49.99 per occurrence!
That's just paying a little more for your car when you buy it, not as a dlc.
Unless you couldn't afford the fancy features and later could, or move somewhere colder from somewhere warm, but all the pieces are already there and built.
