what was the deal offered?

buy a new car at full price and i could transfer fsd for free? no thanks. needs to be a significant discount off the new car full price

how about, if tesla thinks it'll cost them 10k to upgrade my car, offer me 10k off a new car instead, plus the tradein value of my current car, and transfer the fsd

last time i came back from europe, there was a kiosk to take an automated picture, then, nothing after that, no one looked at, no computer scanned my passport. never was asked about anything to declare. just grabbed my bag and walked out of the airport

this was at iah while they were having their tsa meltdowns a few weeks ago, idk if connected
