A Colorado Cybertruck owner says switching from a Ford F-150 to Tesla’s electric beast is like trading a typewriter for a laptop—but one pricey feature left him with buyer’s remorse.
The EV driver based in Colorado, US, made the comparison after he purchased Full Self-Driving (FSD) mode for his truck as part of a promotion.
But he revealed the purchase was a waste.
In fact, he said he regretted buying FSD mode altogether – you can check them out in a side-by-side below to judge for yourself.

Cybertruck owner reviews FSD
When this Cybertruck owner bought a 2025 AWD truck from Tesla, he also bought Tesla’s Full Self-Driving mode.
But he admitted this purchase was a mistake.
“Driving it is a blast,” said Steelheart about using the EV.

But FSD? He calls it a waste of money.
“My wife described it like going from a typewriter to a laptop. Technically, a F150 or Tundra does the same basic things, but nowhere near with this capability and ease of use,” Steelheart said on the Cybertruck Owner’s Club Forum.
He also explained that he thought the asking price of $80,000 was high, but after driving it around for a few weeks, he said that it was a ‘fair price for the leap forward this truck is’.
While some drivers might not value it, Tesla said it was there to ‘take care of the most stressful parts of daily driving’.
Tesla’s FSD is available in Mexico, Puerto Rico, China, the US, and Canada.

The Cybertruck has undergone intense DIY testing
The Cybertruck marked the company’s first EV pickup release, and it’s proving to be a force to be reckoned with.
From off-roading to impressive range, Tesla says the truck can do it all.
But owners aren’t taking Tesla’s word for it, they’re putting the truck to the test themselves.

Take this Canadian guy, for example, who put the Tesla Cybertruck against a Chevy Silverado in an ultimate towing competition.
Or these guys who pitted the iconic Tesla against the Ford F-150 and the Chevy Silverado in a tug-of-war for the ages.
Some owners are even giving their Cybertrucks extreme modifications to help them stand out even more on the roads.
