Our first experience with MIDDY 2.0 driving us from our house in Saint Peters, MO to Nashville, TN via Jasper IN was so boring and yet so amazing. Not one intervention or disengagement. We tell the tale as well as share our most recent trip to Indy for the 2026 Final Four!
In the first of a three part series, we talk about how we got to this point in our personal multi-year journey as an FSD beta testerAnd sure enough, Elon announced last night that 14.3 is in the hands of employees... Told Ya!
I wasn't expecting to hear much about HW3 on the conference call with Optimus, Robotaxi, and Semi being the stars of the show, well, and Energy too.But what wasn't said spoke volumes on the future of HW3 cars.See if you agree with me...
It's been 2,000 miles, and it's time to share my impressions after an over 500 mile roadtrip that surprised me to say the least.In a word, amazing...And I include an introduction to Sean Rust, the author of our latest Audiobook production for Audible entitled "Technically Tesla".

We share our first impressions after getting a 2nd Wave Version Lottery Win and explain how one version of Tesla software and two versions of FSD can be downloaded to HW3 and HW4 cars at the same time...
This is a LONG episode because there is SO MUCH different between MIDDY 1.0, our 2020 Tesla Model Y and the upcoming "Juniper" refresh of the 2025 Model Y.Just be glad I didn't include all the software changes, we would have been here for DAYS!And yes, Grok did the rendering...
