In this episode, we begin by discussing Morgan Stanley's prediction that Tesla FSD is at least a decade away. We then move onto some mods that Mike made to his car before an upcoming roadtrip he has planned. Marc then mentions how some some are interested in putting a CD player in their Tesla. Subsequently, we discuss how Tesla is no longer penalizing individuals for making design changes to their order after Tesla has raised prices. This then transitions into a discussion about Tesla service experiences.

We begin Podcast #5 by discussing the road trip that Mike just went and how his Model 3 handled it. We then consider how the road trip experience may be changed by the possibility of Superchargers opening up to other EVs. We say happy birthday to the Model 3, which turned 6 today. We discuss the rumors of FSD Beta expansion to new rumors.
