welcome to finally another edition of my very unlikely v-log
Wow City of Milwaukee bro it's gotta love him and I need a better - mount
left my sticky at home so let's see where are we at well fine I suppose
physically we're in downtown Milwaukee enjoy the rather crappy views here I'm a
dash cam and holy crap this road sucks um let's see where do I have to go pick
up Chalet news let's see well the Tesla semi event is going to be on October
26th at the Hawthorne design studio in Hawthorne California which is basically
the Los Angeles metro area no Cayman does not have tickets if you
have a ticket and you would be willing to have came in go along with you please
I would be eternally grateful and might be able to help you out I mean we can I
you know cover hotel room or something I don't know
I had my five referrals couldn't get any more because I had five pending and they
didn't upgrade my thing to allow for more like they did with Bjorn's but then
Tesla announced pricing drops and blah blah blah blah blah and then I had three
cancellations of my five referrals leaving me now with two meaning I don't
have enough for tickets to the Tesla semi event which really blows
remember I had one point I had I had around a hundred thousand people
watching my live stream of the heat model three delivery event and I I my
viewers you guys gave me some pretty good feedback on that itself I think
just plain yep that'll do it I had some pretty good feedback that you
guys liked that different style just live streaming the entire thing as best
as I could I'd love them to do that again so if you have tickets please
consider sharing I'd I don't know what I could offer you but yeah let's see other
news way too much to catch up on so we're not going to do everything
Tesla's semi photos have been leaked it's smaller than I thought the leaked
photos also show the arrow cap on the roof of the of the cab not act not
attached
and once you add that on it looks bigger but considering it's a semi on the flat
on a flatbed trailer being pulled by another semi I guess it to me it looks
smaller than I thought also have some theories here the what looks to be in
the background looks maybe like version 3 of the superchargers I don't know just
throwing that out there which would be really cool you know
version 3 of the superchargers for a semi truck they're gonna have to have a
lots of power going into those buggers to recharge them somehow and fast a
supercharger would definitely be a bonus
oh let's see what else do we got details of the model three phone F have been
leaked for the most part it's gonna do the same stuff that the current model
essent Model X app can do at this time being however it's rumored to also be
your car key via low-power Bluetooth
take a drive past of Milwaukee Airport here so I mean that's gonna be cool
I guess login once maybe instead of Bluetooth maybe n F NFC and supported
devices would have been a little little better and maybe it will rear wheel
drive Model S's have been discontinued there are no more offers for a
rear-wheel drive model us anymore and probably the reason they did that was to
differentiate a little bit more between the model 3 and the Model S trying to
now that they have that third option the model 3
they want they need to make sure there's a there's a big enough price gap so at
this moment I've been telling people you know unless you can be happy with the
straight thirty five thousand dollar version of the model three you're better
off getting the entry-level model s by the time you add in all your upgrades
and add-ons you're getting a lot more bang for the buck on a entry level and a
basic level Model S then you are a model three how ever now that they got rid of
the rear wheel drive version and the Model S is technically a little more
expensive of a vehicle now giving it a wider a wider cost cap so no now there's
a little more thought to put into it which too yet now it might be worth it
if you don't drive accessible if you only do 12,000 miles a year or 15,000 a
year and you have no problems charging from home
and limited supercharging might not be such a selling point for you for me it's
it would be hard to swallow having a Tesla without unlimited super charging
or a large stipend that I'd be able to use and get every year
let's see referral program little little bit of changes it looks like the
thousand dollar discount might be going away or the unlimited supercharged you
might already be going away it's a little unclear exactly how that's
working the prices have changed around a little bit I mean if I can get three
more referrals before the deadline though I could still go to the semi
event for all of you if not then I'll be then if I it's still counting up on my
referral so I might be able to go to the next event if I can get three more
hopefully you guys are awesome please
you know Jordan you're still raking them in I know that the world's largest super
charging station is going to be in Shanghai China and they're supposed to
be something like 50 installs now
Charlie's two cousins Momo and William both live in Shanghai actually William
lives in Shanghai whoops that wasn't good hit a piece of metal there auto
lane change was a little bit too slow on that one wrote was saying at William and
Momo both live in or around Shanghai William lives in Shanghai Momo lives
just outside of Shanghai although Williams considerably more busy so I'm
going to try and get Momo to stop by and take some pictures of the Shanghai
supercharger the big 150 stalls holy crap Oh Ron Lind
Daniel annoys drivers don't use turn signals and then I'm still trying to get
my other friend my friend Wendy he'll remember from my 2015 do John yen and
visit to the at the time world's largest Tesla store videos she's teaching
Chinese to South Koreans in in South Korea I'm trying to get her to stop at
the South Korean stores for me about apparently she's been extremely busy so
working on that Tesla is sending power walls to hurricane stricken Porto Rico
and Tesla may be working with AMD to develop new full autonomous hardware
I don't know if the Nvidia stuff has just not been panning out very well but
one thing I have to say is considering they only have three car models out it's
been a while since I went this week yeah since I'm considering they only have
three version three car models out that are actively supported we're not
counting the roadster they have a lot of different software revisions to deal
with and I think it's getting a little excessive
there's too many Hardware versions to have to support with their software
updates and then if they add even newer hardware hell yeah I mean you think
about it probably the original classic cars who know I don't know how much
longer the classic Model S's are gonna still be able to get still gonna be able
to get software updates I mean other than just minor minor things that are
universal but it's ready they're already past
their end of life I don't know what more they're gonna be getting auto pilot one
is pretty much staying mated we will not be seeing any more real improvements at
all on autopilot one right now it's at the limitation of the hardware folks
there's just nothing more is really gonna be
happening on autopilot one and I hate to say it because I got auto pilot one but
don't give your hope I mean don't I mean don't give your hopes up I mean don't
give your hopes up just don't expect anything else out of them other than GUI
updates I mean still hoping they'll get rid of the stupid smart zoom on that
half it drives me batshit crazy and we're the apps or the apps pop up on the
screen I liked it the original way and there's still so much wrong with version
eight firmware GUI and we're wet past a year and there's really no improvement
on that the audio system personally works worse than it did when I first got
the car my first car I mean there's a lot they got to do yet and autopilot
other than what little game you'll get from fleet learning that's it it's at
its limit autopilot 2.0 I mean it's been a year now and they still aren't even at
the capability of auto pilot one so you guys still have some room to go there
but so there's still hope for you on the
pilot 2.0 and 2.5 people but yeah that's pretty much all I can say on that and
now if they say whoa what whoops there goes again
forgot my acceleration there folks
going through the tunnel
that covers it let's see what we have for next week but once again I'm begging
yes I will beg if anybody has a plus-one available for the Tesla semi event
please let me know I mean even Jordan will probably not be going because of
the airline ticket prices are so dang high so adios
