Calling it now that Tesla names the new model the Model R so they have the S3XYR lineup

49:00 That`s not the debt, that`s just the yearly payment. The actual debt is over 30 T

As a big Elon Musk and your channel fan (one of your first subscribers), It is disappointing that you are leaving out the most obvious reason the Kamala Harris fake video is controversial. Musk broke his own rules for X that you can’t post things if they are fake without saying they are fake. You used to call out things that were wrong no matter who it was but now you just seem like a Musk fan site and Musk can do no wrong. Very disappointing. Like I stated earlier, I am a huge Musk fan and think he is the most important man on earth in our generation.

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.

[wallykramer]

Jesse and Zac: Why are all your videos of electric bicycles with riders always *always* _always_ have the seat way too low? The leg should be way closer to almost straight at bottom of travel!

[johngoncalves]

Suggest putting Elon’s tweets at the very end so we don’t have to waste time trying to skip through it to see the rest of the EV stuff most of us tune in for

So, NAFTA no longer a thing? 🤔
Seems pretty sketch to me. 🤨

[brianbeasley]

Your assessment of Jalopnick is spot on!

[jackcoats]

They ICE makers don't HAVE to buy credits from Tesla. They could pay the Fed's the fines instead!

[fdelaneau]

The problem with the Kamala Harris false ad to me is more that Elon didn’t respect his own rules for X users by not flagging it as parody. Most will understand it from the context but it can be taken at face value thus misrepresenting her.

[byronstuckless]

I predict that on 10/10 a RoboTaxi will pull up and two Optimus robots will climb out and start dancing.

[tokepanduro]

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?

[trevorshiffermiller]

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.

Please don't fall into the same trap that FUDsters use. They only highlight one aspect of an issue to twist its meaning. You are beginning to do the same with your foray into political areas. There were a couple of areas that you reported on that were misleading. Firstly, the issue of the Harris video that had been altered using an AI voice, and Elon's response to the criticism saying parody was legal. It is, but while the original video was clearly labelled as parody, the retweet by Elon did not and this shows the danger of AI being used to manipulate people. 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.

I am not American but a huge Tesla fan boy, but I am not blind to Elon's faults when he makes a mistake. Don't start to defend the indefensible by putting only one side of the story.

[dustind]

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.

[marknevar]

The truck fire was in Clifton, NJ. The supercharger is in Clinton, NJ.

[matthewholzmueller]

I think Jordan Peterson spoke more than Elion during the interview 😅

[robertray]

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.

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.
