would this be in LAW.se? – tuskiomi Aug 22 at 18:53

I have been thinking about your question about LAW.se. This answer from the area51 FAQ has helped me: When voting, focus on your site Don't worry about whether a question might be asked on another site. Your goal is to make the best possible site for this community. – pdobb Aug 25 at 20:25

	“How does one enable autopilot?” Is this what you mean? Better wording would likely help. It’s a fair question. – pdobb Aug 20 at 7:21
	Corrected! I now, that It’s a fair question. Elon said, that this is one of the most asked question. – noisy Aug 21 at 8:15

I'd consider this question low quality. This question isn't particularly specific to Tesla (The VINs are in standard location) and no owner would ask this as if you own the car the VIN location is pretty obvious. – user1558604 Nov 29 at 22:56

This question is fine as is... but just a thought. What about something like "Do I need to buy Full Self Driving to enable Tesla's active safety features?" Kind of a broader question with an awesome answer (i.e. "No. All safety-related features are always free and are always on.) – pdobb Aug 25 at 4:50

This question is pretty broad. As a community we may need to think about ways for people to define what vehicle they are talking about. There are many different hardware versions of the Model S, all which with different horsepower. Also, horsepower can change between software versions too. If asking about current new vehicles, I'd consider the question low quality, since that information is available on the official Tesla website. – user1558604 Nov 29 at 23:02

I'd consider this a low value question. This information is easily found on the official Tesla Website. – user1558604 Nov 29 at 22:45

I actually did not consider it to be a bug report - I was hoping there was some trick to it. I guess then this question - with an answer of 'not possible' - could serve to inform the reader that it is not currently possible. That alone can be very useful IMO. – Tom Nov 29 at 23:16

	I'd consider this a low value question. A) there isn't enough information provided. B) There is a calculator for this on the Tesla website tesla.com/powerwall – user1558604 Nov 29 at 22:47
	The calculator you provided would not be sufficient in some cases as there are many specificities and much variability depending on the specific circumstances. It is true that I could of added more details as you said. Perhaps I shall modify my question so it is more adequate. – Tom Minor Dec 1 at 23:43

Don't all Teslas have autopilot? – Fuzzy Squid Sep 7 at 2:06

@FuzzySquid nope. older models do not have autopilot. – Tom Minor Nov 18 at 0:06

Do you intend to ask how to purchase autopilot on a car that has the hardware, or how to add the hardware to Tesla that doesn't have the hardware? The first is a relatively straight forward process, the second is almost impossible. – user1558604 Nov 29 at 22:58

Sounds like you're asking about more like "pre-planning" of trips? 👍 – pdobb Nov 30 at 5:18

This question is unlikely to ever help any future visitors; it is only relevant to a small geographic area, a specific moment in time, or an extraordinarily narrow situation that is not generally applicable to the worldwide audience of the internet.
