Gail’s Tesla Podcast on 𝕏 Episode No. 77: FSD from Airport –> Gigafactory Texas

Gail AlfarLeave a comment

(Austin, Texas) What is it like if you were to fly into the Austin airport and drive to the Tesla Gigafactory? How long would the drive take? This is where you can find that out, and you can come along with me to experience it in this video.

Three Facts About Gigafactory Texas

ONE Giga Texas is not just a factory; it’s a sprawling 2,500-acre complex that’s larger than the Pentagon! Elon Musk even joked about turning it into an “ecological paradise” with butterflies and birds. Maybe they’ll start offering nature tours.

TWO The factory is so massive that driving alongside it at highway speeds takes almost a minute to go from one end to the other. That’s a lot of Teslas!

THREE Speaking of which, Giga Texas produces the Cybertruck, Tesla’s futuristic, stainless steel-clad pickup truck. It’s like something straight out of a sci-fi movie.

Enjoy the video (at 9:30 some extraordinary AI art is featured)

In this video, I have used the AI art of a few talented people on X as a filter. This special art presentation starts around 9 minutes, 30 seconds in! See if you can spot the art by Deborah and K10 on X. Their accounts are amazing. Elon Musk shared one AI art, and I am unsure if he created it or if it was a gift to him from an AI artist.

ART FEATURE

Enjoy art created and shared by (in order) Deborah, K10, and Elon Musk.

Giga Texas Computer Data Center

As we watch the video, we’ll closely examine the new construction of the Tesla FSD or Robotaxi Datacenter. It looks like a Gemstone on a super-large scale!

Gail’s Tesla Podcast on 𝕏 Episode No. 75: FSD relaxing drive at night under the stars.

Gail AlfarLeave a comment

(Austin) Join me for a very relaxing ride in a Model Y where FSD (full self driving) is used the whole trip so we can just decompress from a long day. We can talk, look out at the scenery, etc.

This truly is the essence of maximizing the overall happiness of the general population of people. Elon Musk has talked about his overarching goal. Put simply (very simply), Elon really does want the whole of humanity to be happier.

I hope this podcast will portray to you, the viewer, the happiness I want to share.

When the Tesla saw a woman with her pet, it slowed and stopped for her as demonstrated in this video.

BONUS TREAT: The above short video was given a rare and exclusive LIKE from Elon Musk. I hope you will like it as much as he did!

Gail’s Tesla Podcast on 𝕏 Episode No. 74: The Prez talks about driving Cybertruck across the USA.

Gail AlfarLeave a comment

(Austin, Texas) When Joseph Jefferson received an exclusive invite to the Tesla 2024 Sharholder’s meeting, he knew he would drive his Cybertruck across the USA to the big event at Gigafacotry Texas in Austin.

He is a light packer, bringing only the essentials: a great attitude, and a big smile. He is an approachable man who goes by “The PREZ,” as he’s the leader of a Tesla Club known as TOSJV. San Joaquin Valley is the home of the famous Tesla Megapack Factory in Lathrop.

Joseph has a broad knowledge of all things Tesla. He has a wild sense of humor and a lot of natural charisma. In this video, Podcast 74, you’ll get to know him a little better. Enjoy the podcast!

SIDENOTE: Elon Musk gave an exclusive like to this iconic post (below). Elon approved, Prez approved, we are looking good!

Gail’s Tesla Podcast on 𝕏 Episode No. 73: John Stringer of TOSV

Gail AlfarLeave a comment

(Austin, Texas) There are times when you are exhausted, and it’s easy to procrastinate and put things off. This is not John Stringer. Despite jet lag and exhaustion, he had the energy to take a red-eye flight to Austin, Texas for the Tesla Shareholder Meeting 2024 at Giga Texas. If that was not enough, he also had the extra energy to join my Podcast for episode 73. We met with Joseph Jefferson and Tony Chung (as cameraman for me). Both John and Joseph also volunteer as Presidents of local Tesla Clubs in California. John is the president of Tesla Owners Silicon Valley (Joseph founded Tesla Owners San Joaquin Valley).

In this video, we meet exclusively with John and talk about Elon Musk’s Tesla compensation package. We also tested FSD around the busy Austin Airport area during the conversation and the software is exceptionally smooth, this is what enables me to be so relaxed while conducting a short podcast simultaneously while being responsible for the car. Enjoy Podcast Episode 73.

In upcoming episodes we will meet Tony Chung and Joseph Jefferson.

Gail’s Tesla Podcast on 𝕏 Episode No. 72: Four Amazing Interviews at Starbase, Texas!

Gail AlfarLeave a comment

Sit back and relax with this podcast episode. It has four amazing interviews in it.

First we will talk with the man behind the giant Elon Musk mural which is a massive meme in tribute to Elon’s ability to make humble jokes even about himself. Known as ElonRWA on X, and hailing from France, we will talk with the creator and get the inside story.

Second, you will meet a rocket expert named Grandpa Joe from Baton Rogue. As we stand right at the base of Starship, we discuss Elon Musk and trust me, the vibe is OUT OF THIS WORLD!

Third, meet a really sincere young man who owns a Cybertruck (now for rent) and a property rental startup where every place you stay can give you a view of the rocket factory at Starbase, Texas. You’ll love Starbnb.

Jessica Tetreau talks about SpaceX in Texas

Saving the BEST for last, we will hear the amazing Jessica Tetreau talk about the early days of SpaceX. This is truly a great woman who cares deeply about the people of Brownsville.

Gail’s Tesla Podcast on 𝕏 Episode No. 71: Julia Love and Starship Launch

Gail AlfarLeave a comment

(Texas) You can go to many places in your Tesla, but it’s rare to go to a Starship Launch. Julia Love and I made a plan. We planned to let my blue Saphire Tesla Model Y (using FSD) take us to see the fourth launch. We also planned to car-camp.

We were in for a super memorable time down at Starbase, Texas.

Come along with us on this drive as we approach the launchpad, you’ll also feel the sheer wonder of getting so close to a big f*cking rocket factory! We’ll experience the launch together!

Gail’s Tesla Podcast on 𝕏 Episode No. 65: FSD V12 to see Texas’ Painted Churches

Gail AlfarLeave a comment

Can Tesla FSD take you all around the Texas Hill Country to see the painted churches?

With Tesla software V12, the safest way to travel around the Texas Hill Country is to use FSD. The roads are narrow, they have unexpected crossroads, and some stop signs are hard to see. I always let Tesla FSD do the driving for me. Come along on a tour of the famous painted churches, located in and around located in the communities of Dubina, High Hill, Moravia, St. John, and Ammannsville. FSD takes us right to their doors!
