Tesla has just launched a new referral program for FSD.
Historically, I never shared my referral links because of Ohio and Virginia state laws. They prevent non dealers from benefiting from vehicle referrals. A very silly law, in my opinion.
This new FSD referral program lets me finally participate.
If my videos have helped you or you'd like to support me, please use my link for a free one-month FSD trial: tesla.com/get-app/referral?c…

Tesla has just officially introduced the first FSD (Supervised) referral program!
If you refer a Tesla owner to try FSD (Supervised), then you earn one month of free FSD (Supervised) or a $99 Tesla Credit.
To refer someone, you must be currently subscribed to FSD (Supervised) or have purchased FSD (Supervised) outright
Sharing your referrer link grants eligible customers a one-month FSD (Supervised) trial. Referrer benefits are earned when your referral recipient subscribes to FSD (Supervised) during their trial. Your referrer benefit will depend on your FSD (Supervised) ownership status as outlined below:
• Subscribed to FSD (Supervised): One month of free FSD (Supervised)
• Purchased FSD (Supervised) outright: $99 Tesla Credit toward eligible purchases.
You can receive referrer benefits up to 12 times per calendar year when your link is used and an FSD (Supervised) subscription is purchased. This new program is currently only available in the U.S.
After your invitee receives the link, they will have access to one free month of FSD (Supervised), if eligible. If they subscribe to FSD (Supervised) during the trial, you will earn your referrer benefit.
Here's my FSD (Supervised) referral link if you want to check it out: tesla.com/get-app/referral?c…
Tesla delivered a new car every 18 seconds this year. That makes for a lot of new Tesla owners.
I’m working on a video sharing my tips and tricks I wish I knew from day one of owning my Tesla, and I want to include yours too.
Drop your best tips below 👇 I’ll feature some of your suggestions alongside my own.
What’s one thing you wish someone had told you when you first got your Tesla?
This is a great idea.
If I were renting my Tesla, I would feel more comfortable with the guest using FSD rather than drive it manually.

Car rental marketplace Turo is introducing the first verified @Tesla FSD (Supervised) rental experience for travelers in the U.S.
Starting on October 28, Turo guests will be able to search, discover, and book Tesla vehicles with FSD (Supervised) activated, using direct API integration to verify FSD status.
Eligible Turo “hosts” who rent out their cars on the platform will also receive a free one-month trial of FSD. Turo said it is working with Tesla to directly access the automaker’s API to verify which cars have FSD enabled.
CEO of Turo. "Our own research shows that 55% of Americans are interested in driverless technology for travel, growing to 71% for Gen Z."

We are launching the Tesla Robotaxi safety report today.
Till date, Robotaxi has driven a total of 3.3 million miles autonomously, and has had zero injuries nor airbag deployments. If the same number of miles were to be manually driven, we should expect roughly 9 injuries to the occupants or other pedestrians and 4 airbag deployments on average.
We will continue to transparently share our progress with the public using this page.

Tesla reports Q3 earnings tonight at 5:30 PM ET.
What's the one FSD update you want to hear about on the call?
14.3.13 just dropped - the highest point release Tesla has ever put on a single FSD branch.
We’ve been on the 14.3 branch now for over 6 months.
How much longer do you think we stay on 14.3 before V15 shows up? đź‘€
FSD is at its best when it's saving you from other drivers, not from itself.
Ever had FSD save you from someone else's mistake?
Tell me what happened.
Honest question for FSD owners. What's the one thing you still want @Tesla to fix?
Here's my list after driving 14.3.12:

The @Tesla Roadster represents something much bigger than a sports car.
It’s a symbol of engineering excellence, relentless ambition, and the belief that the future doesn’t have to look anything like the past.
Tesla helped redefine what an electric vehicle could be. And with the Roadster, it can redefine what’s possible all over again.
That’s what makes this car so fascinating. It’s not simply about building something faster. It’s about inspiring an entirely new generation to think bigger.

Hate to dox myself a bit but have worked on just about every fighter jet the US has. I have seen some impressive technology over my career but this is a whole other level. I have so many questions and need to know how this works. How much edge compute is needed to make this happen? My first thought is dual processor + 1TB ram. That way it can handle the fuckquintillion process per second. There was zero correction it nailed it 100%.
