Tesla Semi is very important from a environmental point of view. Heavy traffic pollutes much more than regular cars so every ICE semi that is replaced by a EV semi makes a big difference.
@@HelloFellowAI dumb argument, those black energy will still be used elsewhere, but for some reason if used on EV you put a magnifying glass on it. EV in general are better for the environment simply because it doesnt produce any exhaust fume in its entire lifetime on the road. Whatever the source of the power is, green or not, its just net positive at the end of the day.
@@HelloFellowAI That's been debunked over and over again. EVs are so much more efficient than ICE that even if the electricity was made with coal, the EV would still pollute less than an equivalent ICE car/truck.
@@HelloFellowAI we're going for that future, especially when Tesla are also accelerating the renewable part of the energy sector. It will be a Win-Win situation eventually. Look, my problem with your argument is that, why cant EV use electricity that are produced from whatever is the country are using as the main source of generating electricity? black energy or gas as you put it? renewable energy are ramping up but why is using EV is a lose lose situation? using EV should be at least a lose-win situation, only because we're not fully on renewable energy grid yet. It will take years. But you can't wait until we're fully on renewable energy to get an EV, that would be dumb as hell or to use ICE car until we're 100% on renewable green energy, that would be even dumber.

You did not point out that by not labelling the video Elon was wrong. Secondly, you reported just one side of Elon's issues with his transgender child. His child has absolutely disputed Elon's version of what happened. By not reporting this you are misleading your audience.

Not called NAFTA anymore. Trump renegotiated the treaty, which is now called USMCA (United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement). If Trump is reelected, he could renegotiate it again and put higher tariffs on Chinese cars made in Mexico. Nothing stopping him.
Ramping up Tesla Semi production is great news. I just had a thought that some of those trucks should be purchased by an RV producer. Make a class A RV from a Tesla Semi. Huge battery that can be used for non-hookup camping (boondocking) Also there are many RV people who could use a vehicle that can self drive. Most RV people also don’t drive more than 500 miles in a day and then stay in an RV park for a couple of days. So the vehicle can charge from the 50 amp connection at most RV parks. If there is enough power to the connection then they could even possibly plug into both the 50 amp and 30 amp connections and charge a little faster. I know there are probably things I don’t know about that would make this difficult but it is a nice idea.
If you are going to cover Elon making statements about his child you should also cover his child saying he is wrong. Don't just put Elon's tweets up without context.

I understand that autopilot and cruise control work incredibly well. Here in Europe, specificly Denmark, it sucks, i.e., lots of fantom breaking, collision warning all based on a misreading of traffic. Do anybody know if this will be corrected?
My car tries to drive me everywhere but needs interventions. How can we expect FSD when we can’t get working auto-wipers, working auto-brights or reliable speed limit readings? Also have you ever tried FSD in remote areas at night, my FSD refuses to drive in good weather. Please tell my model Y is just broken?? Tesla service has repeatedly confirmed no issues with my hardware. 😢
@marshallchambers6387 I live in the middle of nowhere on back roads. Car drives a little slow on curves. It is annoying that auto wipers run randomly, but mine always work well in the rain, now, they didn't used too. Last software my model y would try to take me the wrong way on the highway, it doesn't do that anymore. It does slow down when reading a speed limit sign from a side road and that sucks. Autobrights are working a ton better and even shine around corners now. I dont like that it thinks reflective signs and street lamps are headlights. 2024 MY running 12.5.
Have you ever thought that Russia may not be the Heaven they say it is? Or is it? Lots of fresh air and brave activities on the borders of Ukraine and free veapons for every volunteer. Sounds like a NRA heaven.
Thanks for comparing renewable FUD stories to fossil fuel issues! Long overdue. Each time we hear a FUD story about renewable energy we should compare it to fossil fuel issues as you did here. Wonderful to see.
I don’t think that Ford bashing helps anyone. The EV revolution can’t succeed with only a single profitable domestic supplier. We need other OEMs to be successful.
58:01 Elon had no problem banning Kathy Griffin for parodying him. Elon’s rules said that parodies need to be labeled as such. He sounds a bit like a hypocrite.
She uploaded a social media post showing herself holding a fake decapitated head that resembled Elon Musk's. He didn't ban Griffin. Musk's lawyer sent Griffin's legal representation a notice of defamation, demanding she retract and apologize for the post, which she refused.
Musk is not like most CEO's. He's not motivated by money or stock price. He doesn't care if Tesla has fewer car sales due to his comments. He knows Tesla will be a massive success and he values his own free speech rights. Most CEO's have no courage to speak out. If people are so petty as to chose their cars by the political philosophies of the CEO, then they will drive lesser cars and have a lesser life.
FSD is real! I used attention monitoring (no sunglasses, yet) Irvine parking lot to San Clemente. hands free, no intervention or disengagement in rush hour. smooth
I’ve got 12.5.1 FSD and can confirm it’s pretty awesome. I have taken it out of FSD due to it wanting to turn left from center lane and not get in the left turn lane. Right turns can be slower than I like so I do push on the acceleration a tiny bit some times. Start and stop at lights are so much better and less harsh. Exit off of highways can be rough when the car wants to change lanes super fast to not go over solid white lines.
Hey lads, methinks you protest to much. Elon is throwing his weight behind trump against the interests of the American people. Fine to support his brilliance as a visionary engineering but you need to acknowledge Elon is a very flawed individual.
Tesla voice commands works well - if you are ‘Murican. Here in Australia people usually try it for a bit when they first get their car and then never use it again because it’s so frustrating.
Please work on being a reputable source of media. You just put yourself in the same category that you're continuously bashing. The TX bridge collision was May 2024. You claimed this was last week. July 2024. StarMan had his Chinese rocket news events confused a couple weeks ago. I am not a fact checker so I would like reputable sources. I am have been watching your show since pre covid days.

Test drove a Cybertruck at Tysons's corner VA today. Nice, very similar to driving a Model X, feels smaller than something that size. Tanks to "T" at Tyson's for setting the drive up.
Totally agree, his siding with far right and the whole woke mind virus nonsense is very damaging to Tesla's market, recent survey results I saw show democrats are far more likely to purchase an EV, so Elons flailing in the political space will be impacting sales. Then X, omg, I tried logging in after a long time away and it's is a cesspool of hate and miss information. Just for the record I am a long time Tesla shareholder but it's becoming a bitter pill.
Please keep politics out of this channel. I thought this channel was about electric vehicles. Some of Elon Musk' s political views are just deplorable. He is parroting Trump's views about Democrats being anti semitic. Let's see for how long he is going to ride the Trump train. I am out !
Thanks for the info about where they hid the foot blaster in the new HVAC screen! The Dog/ Keep/Camp mode only shows up at the top of the screen when the car is in Park.
To permit self-driving vehicles on our roads, extensive testing over many years and countless miles is essential. Recently, Tesla owners have experienced the advanced capabilities of Tesla's autopilot, but it is clear that full autonomy remains a distant goal. While human drivers can navigate various challenges on the road, autonomous driving technology still struggles to recognize certain issues, such as a small piece of debris or a plastic object in the roadway. Such a small element could be enough to cause a massive crash and road congestion.
Let’s hope v12.5 trickles down to my ‘21 Model Y. I’m licking my wounds, suffering from the depreciation since my Dec. purchase. I’ll feel better, seeing for fact that Hardware 3 is compatible.
False. Voice commands can indeed be done without the internet. Some voice assistants, like Apple's Siri and Google Assistant, can work without an internet connection. For example, Siri can process audio on-device in iOS 15, which can make it faster and more private. However, the Google Assistant may have some limitations offline, such as less accurate speech recognition and an inability to access certain services. To work around this, you can download relevant data in advance, like music or maps. Voice access Windows 11's voice access feature allows users to control their PC and write text using only their voice, even without an internet connection. This feature can be used to open and switch between apps, browse the web, and read and write emails. Other features: Some devices also have other features that allow for voice commands without an internet connection, such as: Mobile devices: An architectural model has been proposed for on-site speech recognition using mobile devices without an internet connection. iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch: Once a file download is complete, Voice Control can be used without a Wi-Fi connection.
@@billweberx I guess I wasn't specific enough as I didn't mean to infer that statement in general. .....On the Tesla voice commands don't work without the internet. The Tesla sends the commands up for processing to decide what you said. I've tested it several times to ensure that is what is happening. I live in a rural area inside of a 12 mile dead zone so it's easy for me to test this. My tesla can't do as much as turn on the wipers via voice commands until I get into cell phone range. Works at home while it's attached to my wireless internet though.
Please consider moving Elon’s tweets to the end so I can turn off. I own a Model Y and am a Tesla stockholder. I believe Elon is a world changing innovator. I do NOT idolize him and find many of his tweets juvenile and wrong. The cult of personality surrounding Elon seems to eventually infect most Tesla enthusiast sites.
I prefer them at the beginning. I can't wait to see them. I don't idolize him either, but I'm always intrigued with what he has to say, even if I don't agree with him.
Isn’t the wet towel hack just simulating a rainy day? Wouldn’t rain artificially cool the temperature sensor and cause this same over current charging condition?
I hate politics on channels that are ostensibly for EVs and renewable energy. If you're going to put it on your channel, be honest about the topic because your credibility is at stake. Be honest about which candidate the America PAC supports. Be honest about billionaires bypassing campaign donation limits through PACs. Just BE HONEST!
How can they say which candidates the America PAC supports if the PAC nor Musk says what it supports? You assume it's Trump, but you know any more than Zak or Jesse. Maybe you should be honest.
@@billweberx Here's America PAC spending from Open Secrets. Total Independent Expenditures: $21,007,380 For Democrats: $0 Against Democrats: $8,874,609 For Republicans: $12,132,771 Against Republicans: $0 Perhaps, you should upgrade your knowledge before accusing others of dishonesty.
I was a little confused regarding the difference between margins made and total cost of the vehicle. Perhaps I was wrong but it seemed you were confusing the two. I do not see that if margins are 100% negative would represent 100% of the vehicles value ? Did I miss something?
suggestion, trade one of your trucks for a new model 3 or Y hw4 model. you bought the trucks to show their capabilities vs each other. mission accomplished.
Pretty much, FSD 12.3 turns you into a "supervising passenger." It's almost stress free in comparison to normal driving. It's changed road trips with my wife 100% for the better! EDIT: Watch the Judge Dredd movie with that actress from Game of Thrones who plays Cersei. That's the good one!
Instead of making the HVAC controls so minimal, shouldn’t they make the buttons stupid big so its easy to hit even with fat fingers? I get the voice control point, but this seems like a step back…
In the tweets section of the show, that you didn't acknowledge the reply of Elon's child to his comments about said child concerns me greatly. You wouldn't have to quote the response, but not acknowledging their existence makes me question the integrity of all other segments. IE, what else is not being acknowledged?
@AFortaj And haters gonna hate... I get what you're saying, and I *am* worried about it. At the same time, this channel has been among the best at nuance: actually looking for truth beyond anyone's narrative. True, they're skewed in Elons favor, but they've called out Elon on his crap, too. This particular omission, however, makes me wonder if they're sliding too far down the Elon hype-train for me to trust them as much as I have. I know for others, it's already too late for this channel. I give them more leeway, as they've reported on egregiously false reporting elsewhere. I'd hate to have to restart fact checking all their claims again.
@billweberx It's perfectly possible. But the timing seems odd. I read the tweets days ago. Of course, it might not have ended up in their feed. It just seems off. But, yes, if course it's possible.
Not a fan of all the X’s covering politics in Tesla news except if it directly impacts company and products. Please put in chapters so skipping political speech is easier. Obv Not watching is always an option. Thanks!
You can skip forward by pressing the right arrow button. I do it all the time. But, I happen to like what they have been reporting. Seems relevant to me.
The Harris parody video using AI voice is NOT AN AD. it's video by "Mr. Regan", a UA-camr, since he is an conservative he felt like doing it on his own. This distinction is important since Gavin & MSM stated it was an Ad to go after the content (censor).
X-AI seems to be an essential piece of the puzzle. The future autonomous car should be capable of 2-way communication with the controlling passenger. Just like Dave the astronaut talking to HAL.
I have had a few issues with 12.5.. the main issue is that it drives slower than previous versions so I often find myself with my foot on the accelerator the whole time.. I think if they allowed us to have more control over the speed it would be better.. If I set the max limit to 45mph I would expect it to drive more than 35mph in a 40mph zone for example.. it usually drives about 5 below the speed limit no matter what I try to do to speed it up.. super annoying.. it also stopped 6 times repeatedly for a stop sign with no other cars around.. that was super weird.. I do love the hands free FSD though, that is super cool :)
Zac, Zac, Zac… you watched the WRONG Judge Dredd movie. The Stallone movie was just a bit of silly fun. If you want a REAL Dredd movie watch the 2012 “Dredd” movie staring Karl Urban. Fantastic (and defs NOT kids movie). Also Dredd only needs his Lawmaster and wouldn’t drive a Cybertruck. 😂
talking about cable charging.. why TESLA haven't developed wireless charging.. i read that 100kw have been successful.. including the 270kw wireless charging capability developed by the Oak Ridge National Labs in NJ, using polyphase transfer system.. this would replace the NACS charging cable, making it a real universal charging system across all brands of EVs.. perhaps, it's also about time that TESLA adopts these wireless charging on all charging stations, which eliminates the location of charging port issue & even the current theft of charging cables .. while also eliminating the need to navigate apps in order to charge..
I was an admirer of Elon from afar. I even started investing in TSLA. After years of listening to his infantile and attention seeking twitter rants and destructive(to the TSLA shareholders) earning calls, I became disillusioned with this man-child and completely divested from Tesla. I had planned on buying a Model Y and tried to convince all my family members to buy a Tesla. No longer!

🕵keep eyes open for FUD and keep us informed.
The BS about Kamala and the lack of facts about Trump don’t help your anti political rhetoric. Keep your politics out.
It's their channel. You're just a visitor getting free content. Don't like it. Move on.
I understand that autopilot and cruise control work incredibly well. Here in Europe, specificly Denmark, it sucks, i.e., lots of fantom breaking, collision warning all based on a misreading of traffic. Do anybody know if this will be corrected?
They are constantly learning and improving.👍🏽
The truck fire was in Clifton, NJ. The supercharger is in Clinton, NJ.
I got 12.5 (2024.20.15) 2 days ago. It is a big step up.
You bozo's been saying that nonsense for years now lol
@wyattnoise name calling because you have nothing else. My car drives me everywhere and I rarely have to intervene, it's awesome.
My car tries to drive me everywhere but needs interventions.
How can we expect FSD when we can’t get working auto-wipers, working auto-brights or reliable speed limit readings?
Also have you ever tried FSD in remote areas at night, my FSD refuses to drive in good weather. Please tell my model Y is just broken?? Tesla service has repeatedly confirmed no issues with my hardware. 😢
@marshallchambers6387 I live in the middle of nowhere on back roads. Car drives a little slow on curves. It is annoying that auto wipers run randomly, but mine always work well in the rain, now, they didn't used too. Last software my model y would try to take me the wrong way on the highway, it doesn't do that anymore. It does slow down when reading a speed limit sign from a side road and that sucks. Autobrights are working a ton better and even shine around corners now. I dont like that it thinks reflective signs and street lamps are headlights. 2024 MY running 12.5.
Have you ever thought that Russia may not be the Heaven they say it is? Or is it? Lots of fresh air and brave activities on the borders of Ukraine and free veapons for every volunteer. Sounds like a NRA heaven.
What does this have to do with the price of wheat in Afghanistan?
Thanks for comparing renewable FUD stories to fossil fuel issues! Long overdue. Each time we hear a FUD story about renewable energy we should compare it to fossil fuel issues as you did here. Wonderful to see.
I don’t think that Ford bashing helps anyone. The EV revolution can’t succeed with only a single profitable domestic supplier. We need other OEMs to be successful.
58:01 Elon had no problem banning Kathy Griffin for parodying him. Elon’s rules said that parodies need to be labeled as such. He sounds a bit like a hypocrite.
It's sad to see the direction Elon is taking. Unfortunately, I can hardly take him seriously anymore 😞
She uploaded a social media post showing herself holding a fake decapitated head that resembled Elon Musk's. He didn't ban Griffin. Musk's lawyer sent Griffin's legal representation a notice of defamation, demanding she retract and apologize for the post, which she refused.
Buying Twitter was a huge mistake.
@@dunkihalunki I used to try to defend him, but I gave up. Posts way too much stupid shit.
I notice the EVject replacement is now 50% off instead of free. Do previous buyers get grandfathered into free replacements?
Political acts of mr. Musk will affect the sales of Tesla. This is the reason most companies don't take a part in politics.
Musk is not like most CEO's. He's not motivated by money or stock price. He doesn't care if Tesla has fewer car sales due to his comments. He knows Tesla will be a massive success and he values his own free speech rights. Most CEO's have no courage to speak out. If people are so petty as to chose their cars by the political philosophies of the CEO, then they will drive lesser cars and have a lesser life.
FSD is real! I used attention monitoring (no sunglasses, yet) Irvine parking lot to San Clemente. hands free, no intervention or disengagement in rush hour. smooth
I’ve got 12.5.1 FSD and can confirm it’s pretty awesome. I have taken it out of FSD due to it wanting to turn left from center lane and not get in the left turn lane. Right turns can be slower than I like so I do push on the acceleration a tiny bit some times. Start and stop at lights are so much better and less harsh. Exit off of highways can be rough when the car wants to change lanes super fast to not go over solid white lines.
Solar makes more sense than wind turbines.
Hey lads, methinks you protest to much. Elon is throwing his weight behind trump against the interests of the American people. Fine to support his brilliance as a visionary engineering but you need to acknowledge Elon is a very flawed individual.
Visionary engineer!? Hahahaha Elmo, is the biggest moron on this planet! Why doesn't he just leave to one of his colonies on Maras!?
Yea I can't watch these 2 anymore, they just agree on everything Elon says, it's sad
Tesla voice commands works well - if you are ‘Murican. Here in Australia people usually try it for a bit when they first get their car and then never use it again because it’s so frustrating.
Please work on being a reputable source of media. You just put yourself in the same category that you're continuously bashing. The TX bridge collision was May 2024. You claimed this was last week. July 2024. StarMan had his Chinese rocket news events confused a couple weeks ago.
I am not a fact checker so I would like reputable sources. I am have been watching your show since pre covid days. I would appreciate redactions in your shows. Owning up mistakes might be time consuming but you may be able to attract a bigger audience.
Thank you
For your consideration
Test drove a Cybertruck at Tysons's corner VA today. Nice, very similar to driving a Model X, feels smaller than something that size. Tanks to "T" at Tyson's for setting the drive up.
Good show Boy's! Thanks for all your hard work.
Haha, the Elf clip was good
You guys never say anything negative about Elon
Totally agree, his siding with far right and the whole woke mind virus nonsense is very damaging to Tesla's market, recent survey results I saw show democrats are far more likely to purchase an EV, so Elons flailing in the political space will be impacting sales. Then X, omg, I tried logging in after a long time away and it's is a cesspool of hate and miss information. Just for the record I am a long time Tesla shareholder but it's becoming a bitter pill.
Yea I can't watch these 2 anymore, they just agree on everything Elon says, it's sad
@@VN1214 Then why are you here? Seems you can watch them or you only like trolling the comment section.
Not much to say.
In regards to the bikes, please say hi to producer Brian from Minnesota and tell him Joans T-shirt is on the way😊 the Highlander
Episode 412 - 420 could be fun to have a small interview with Elon
Please keep politics out of this channel. I thought this channel was about electric vehicles. Some of Elon Musk' s political views are just deplorable. He is parroting Trump's views about Democrats being anti semitic. Let's see for how long he is going to ride the Trump train.
I am out !
Yea I can't watch these 2 anymore, they just agree on everything Elon says, it's sad
Bye bye.
How soon can SpaceX get out there and rotate Starman's tires. ?
They’ll just do an over the vacuum update.👩🚀
Thanks for the info about where they hid the foot blaster in the new HVAC screen! The Dog/ Keep/Camp mode only shows up at the top of the screen when the car is in Park.
To permit self-driving vehicles on our roads, extensive testing over many years and countless miles is essential. Recently, Tesla owners have experienced the advanced capabilities of Tesla's autopilot, but it is clear that full autonomy remains a distant goal. While human drivers can navigate various challenges on the road, autonomous driving technology still struggles to recognize certain issues, such as a small piece of debris or a plastic object in the roadway. Such a small element could be enough to cause a massive crash and road congestion.
Please talk about the OTA which will go out to solve a problem with the frunk sensor.
Debunk the EVs being traded for ice vehicles 🧐
Done ✅.
Watch the newer Dredd from 10 years ago, it's good.
Let’s hope v12.5 trickles down to my ‘21 Model Y.
I’m licking my wounds, suffering from the depreciation since my Dec. purchase.
I’ll feel better, seeing for fact that Hardware 3 is compatible.
Love your show, but what does "100 times less" actually mean?
59:14 🎉 hello from golden Colorado 👋🏻 🔌🚗
I want a model Y Juniper ❤
Hate to say it but voice commands don't work without internet.
They are useless if you don't have cell service.
False. Voice commands can indeed be done without the internet. Some voice assistants, like Apple's Siri and Google Assistant, can work without an internet connection. For example, Siri can process audio on-device in iOS 15, which can make it faster and more private. However, the Google Assistant may have some limitations offline, such as less accurate speech recognition and an inability to access certain services. To work around this, you can download relevant data in advance, like music or maps. Voice access
Windows 11's voice access feature allows users to control their PC and write text using only their voice, even without an internet connection. This feature can be used to open and switch between apps, browse the web, and read and write emails. Other features: Some devices also have other features that allow for voice commands without an internet connection, such as: Mobile devices: An architectural model has been proposed for on-site speech recognition using mobile devices without an internet connection. iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch: Once a file download is complete, Voice Control can be used without a Wi-Fi connection.
@@billweberx I guess I wasn't specific enough as I didn't mean to infer that statement in general. .....On the Tesla voice commands don't work without the internet.
The Tesla sends the commands up for processing to decide what you said. I've tested it several times to ensure that is what is happening.
I live in a rural area inside of a 12 mile dead zone so it's easy for me to test this. My tesla can't do as much as turn on the wipers via voice commands until I get into cell phone range. Works at home while it's attached to my wireless internet though.
Fun fact - at 17:xx min, you guys were thinking about Ford's cheaper EV... A YT promotion starts - Guess what ? Ford Mustang Mach-E - LOL
Another fun fact: You can use this time format 17:00 and it will be converted into a link that places you at that time.
Please consider moving Elon’s tweets to the end so I can turn off. I own a Model Y and am a Tesla stockholder. I believe Elon is a world changing innovator. I do NOT idolize him and find many of his tweets juvenile and wrong. The cult of personality surrounding Elon seems to eventually infect most Tesla enthusiast sites.
I prefer them at the beginning. I can't wait to see them. I don't idolize him either, but I'm always intrigued with what he has to say, even if I don't agree with him.
You needed to watch the Karl Urban Judge Dredd movie. Tremendously better than Stallone version (which isn't hard to be).
Isn’t the wet towel hack just simulating a rainy day? Wouldn’t rain artificially cool the temperature sensor and cause this same over current charging condition?
I blame ford accounting for the ev losses
If the original Judge Dredd doesn't hold up in your mind, you should watch the remake. It's quite good.
is there a tesla model manufactured today still with Hardware 3?
If I'm buying do I have to care which modela nd which factory to get HW4 from?
I hate politics on channels that are ostensibly for EVs and renewable energy. If you're going to put it on your channel, be honest about the topic because your credibility is at stake. Be honest about which candidate the America PAC supports. Be honest about billionaires bypassing campaign donation limits through PACs. Just BE HONEST!
How can they say which candidates the America PAC supports if the PAC nor Musk says what it supports? You assume it's Trump, but you know any more than Zak or Jesse. Maybe you should be honest.
@@billweberx Here's America PAC spending from Open Secrets.

Can we also get going green, sun spots and escape into the future as "Now you know Clips"? I often want to share those stories.
Can you do a ‘clips’ of the wind turbine story, including the tanker fires?! Please
I can recognize Robert Scobles voice anywhere. Great supercharger review, but I don't know if I want to sit that close to a porta-potty.
I was a little confused regarding the difference between margins made and total cost of the vehicle. Perhaps I was wrong but it seemed you were confusing the two. I do not see that if margins are 100% negative would represent 100% of the vehicles value ? Did I miss something?
suggestion, trade one of your trucks for a new model 3 or Y hw4 model. you bought the trucks to show their capabilities vs each other. mission accomplished.
Does their self driving run 100% in the Tesla or does it have to rely on Internet connections?
Better cover the child's response to her father's statements as well.
Bring back Ellie in Space please
I come here to learn about Tesla, not Ford.
All EVs are applicable in content about Tesla.
Pretty much, FSD 12.3 turns you into a "supervising passenger." It's almost stress free in comparison to normal driving. It's changed road trips with my wife 100% for the better! EDIT: Watch the Judge Dredd movie with that actress from Game of Thrones who plays Cersei. That's the good one!
Lena Headey
Yay Voice commands. "Navigate to..." "set HVAC to auto"
Instead of making the HVAC controls so minimal, shouldn’t they make the buttons stupid big so its easy to hit even with fat fingers?
I get the voice control point, but this seems like a step back…
In the tweets section of the show, that you didn't acknowledge the reply of Elon's child to his comments about said child concerns me greatly.
You wouldn't have to quote the response, but not acknowledging their existence makes me question the integrity of all other segments. IE, what else is not being acknowledged?
cult members gonna be doing culty things, they will depend Elon no matter the cost.
@AFortaj
And haters gonna hate...
I get what you're saying, and I *am* worried about it.
At the same time, this channel has been among the best at nuance: actually looking for truth beyond anyone's narrative. True, they're skewed in Elons favor, but they've called out Elon on his crap, too.
This particular omission, however, makes me wonder if they're sliding too far down the Elon hype-train for me to trust them as much as I have.
I know for others, it's already too late for this channel. I give them more leeway, as they've reported on egregiously false reporting elsewhere. I'd hate to have to restart fact checking all their claims again.
Did you consider that they may not have seen the daughter's tweet?
@billweberx
It's perfectly possible.
But the timing seems odd.
I read the tweets days ago.
Of course, it might not have ended up in their feed. It just seems off.
But, yes, if course it's possible.
Enjoyed this episode .👍
100% yes on XAi investing in Tesla. A match-makers dream couple. Win Win.
Not a fan of all the X’s covering politics in Tesla news except if it directly impacts company and products. Please put in chapters so skipping political speech is easier. Obv Not watching is always an option. Thanks!
You can skip forward by pressing the right arrow button. I do it all the time. But, I happen to like what they have been reporting. Seems relevant to me.
The Harris parody video using AI voice is NOT AN AD. it's video by "Mr. Regan", a UA-camr, since he is an conservative he felt like doing it on his own.
This distinction is important since Gavin & MSM stated it was an Ad to go after the content (censor).
X-AI seems to be an essential piece of the puzzle.
The future autonomous car should be capable of 2-way communication with the controlling passenger. Just like Dave the astronaut talking to HAL.
I am in Maryland. I was invited to purchase a foundation series. I didn't put my reservation in until 10/12/23.
I thought Tesla has told EVJect to stop selling their adaptors?
can someone post a direct link to the Peterson/Musk interview please
If Ford can make a four wheel drive F 150 pickup Flate towable,Tesla should be able too as well 🧐
I have had a few issues with 12.5.. the main issue is that it drives slower than previous versions so I often find myself with my foot on the accelerator the whole time.. I think if they allowed us to have more control over the speed it would be better.. If I set the max limit to 45mph I would expect it to drive more than 35mph in a 40mph zone for example.. it usually drives about 5 below the speed limit no matter what I try to do to speed it up.. super annoying.. it also stopped 6 times repeatedly for a stop sign with no other cars around.. that was super weird.. I do love the hands free FSD though, that is super cool :)
Buyy an I.C.E. vehicle if control is your end game!
😱
That’s good to know. Thanks. 👍
59:05 The ID Bizz is just not the same as what we were shown before... and we weren't shown anything crazy
No, they can't.
Period.
With bots coming, factories could be placed in more areas.
Zac, Zac, Zac… you watched the WRONG Judge Dredd movie. The Stallone movie was just a bit of silly fun. If you want a REAL Dredd movie watch the 2012 “Dredd” movie staring Karl Urban. Fantastic (and defs NOT kids movie). Also Dredd only needs his Lawmaster and wouldn’t drive a Cybertruck. 😂
talking about cable charging.. why TESLA haven't developed wireless charging.. i read that 100kw have been successful.. including the 270kw wireless charging capability developed by the Oak Ridge National Labs in NJ, using polyphase transfer system..
this would replace the NACS charging cable, making it a real universal charging system across all brands of EVs.. perhaps, it's also about time that TESLA adopts these wireless charging on all charging stations, which eliminates the location of charging port issue & even the current theft of charging cables .. while also eliminating the need to navigate apps in order to charge..
What kind of a frig was that in the Cybertruck?
I was an admirer of Elon from afar. I even started investing in TSLA. After years of listening to his infantile and attention seeking twitter rants and destructive(to the TSLA shareholders) earning calls, I became disillusioned with this man-child and completely divested from Tesla. I had planned on buying a Model Y and tried to convince all my family members to buy a Tesla. No longer!
You lose.
Have Ford slap its logo on a model Y like Geo Prizm logo was on a Toyota Corolla back in the 90s 😂
In E go. Montoya….
Yeah! No Starman custom today!
Crap, he just had to put it back on for the studio portion of his report.
Have you guys considered not sharing Elons' political posts? Once they start i sometimes just check out or move on to the next video.
If Ford losses 99.5% on every Ford model E, this does not mean the sticker price, but the COGS, right?
That does sound right.
