🇺🇸 A Tesla is the most patriotic car an American can buy! 🇺🇸 

Especially truck owners. The Tesla Pick-Up Truck will blow ALL the others away.

I am also a conservative Patriotic American and I believe in Tesla's mission and I want them to succeed. I am a non-owner currently, but I hope to change that in near future.

@@lauraholmes9353 Truck owners can be some of the worst anti-Tesla people out there, even going as far as vandalizing Tesla vehicles and ICEing superchargers. I wonder how many of these people are fully informed on Tesla before they decided to hate it and went around damaging other people's property.

I’m also a conservative American and I own two Tesla’s and a BMW i3. Electric mobility is not exclusive to Liberals on the West Coast.

@@Noak2472 That is where the hate comes from though. Conservative America hates liberals so much that they instinctively hate anything liberals like. Anything to make "snowflakes cry". We need so badly to move past the animosity and remember we're all countrymen. I'm a patriot though and through, and I think buying Tesla is patriotic.

exactly so start targeting American companies who dont keep jobs in the US as Apple, start viewing them as unpatriotic, we worry about immigration because of "lost jobs" yet we don't worry about the Billions of $$$ going to China by American companies sending jobs there.

@SpaceCowboy121 The high price of Apple products has little to do with production costs, and everything to do with greed and research into other products. All aspects of production generally fall under 50% for their products. After everyone involved is paid they stuff more then half of what you give them into the pockets of investors and upper management. But at the end of the day you cant blame them, if people are dumb enough to over pay for a product that is always 2-3years behind the competition then the only ones at fault are those that purchase their products. I think there is a says that goes "it is immoral to let a sucker keep his money", I would say it applies here.

Do you own a tesla... If not thought so

@@NPCVenture That may be so but Tesla is loosing money, so where do you find the greed? And even if there were greed, the amount you get, including the free upgrades in my mind make this Model 3 comparable with a luxury car. Luxury cars are well over $35,000.

I totally agree. I see blind hate from both political parties and it's really dissapointing. I can't wait for some solid electric 4x4s to become mainstream.

Tom Schirtzinger Tesla is 🇺🇸

Seriously- everybody should be proud of what these companies are accomplishing right here in the US.

Unfortunately all the industries Tesla is disrupting, oil, auto dealerships, legacy car manufacturers are backed by big money and hate Tesla.

I never knew Americans were the only ones with "red blood". Who knew?

The vast majority Americans are "patriotic Americans" it's just that the loud simple minded one's think they have a monopoly on the concept and a very limited notion of what it means and narrow perspective, they probably haven't been anywhere else much.

@@LightWingStudios As a green blooded Canadian, I can confirm!

How do you like your Model 3 so far?

I totally agree. I have watched hundreds of Tesla videos. This is the best overview yet. Great video!!!

Greetings from Germany 😂👍🏼 Looking forward to get a Model 3. Best Car ever! Wanna buy my old BMW e90?

@Daniel Roig - YOU wont be able to Charge your Porsche anywhere but a Dealership, they don't have a Supercharger Network like TESLA has.

@Daniel Roig - Tesla is already the Winner, with its own Battery Factory, and V3 Supercharger Stations as well as the Destination Charger network as well, when you stay overnight at Lodging or a B&B. TESLA provides those charger for FREE or at low cost to the HOTEL. plus My AP3 actually works and gives me a Stress Free Travel, I can then Really open up the TESLA and Drive Manually on Country Roads .

@Daniel Roig - it takes REAL money to make Money. Tesla has paid off its Debts Early on. and is Earning money but Spending money on R&D, Production, and AP3 & FSF hardware & Software, TESLA has the Worlds most Advanced NEURAL net Computers in a consumer Device. Legacy car companies DO NOT Know how to build an Compelling Electric car, it might have the Prowess to build CAR Bodies but they still Don't make their own Drivetrain & Battery as TESLA does. HECK, Legacy Auto cant even build Compelling ICE cars. Dealerships will go the way of the Dinosaur as will GAS Stations. the Dealership model is NO LONGER needed and is NOT Sustainable. all Customer has to do is Order Online the pick up at Service Center when delivered in just 1 - 2 Months. they just Sign then Drive. TESLA cars are built like Tanks - Sandy Monroe. they also Handle like a Dream, far better than a BMW 3 Series car or a MBZ C-class. the AP3 hardware is the most Advanced, Today all TESLA cars made can Operate as Fully Automonous Vehicles, it just needs Regulatory Approval. also, ALL Tesla cars can be made BETTER with just an Over the Air update, in FACT my Tesla now can Drive 5% faster and it can Charge at over 1000 mph, and Travel Longer before the battery gives out. this all Happened while Owning my Tesla. NO OTHER Car company as the Ability to make a BETTER car when you Bought it , adding to its Resale Value.

@Daniel Roig Porsche Taycan? Yeah right, not even close! This video is about a true American Car Company and Porsche is not one of them.

@Daniel Roig Absolutely untrue.

@Daniel Roig Tesla is the most vertically integrated car company in the world. That means they produce the most components on their own.

Daniel Roig plus they are just NOW starting to build factories in China, so the Chinese can buy them locally there. American made are still made in America.... We shouldn’t ship so much across the globe it’s a waste of gas, time and ultimately your money.

@@@lauraholmes9353 So you want American companies to stop EXPORTING? ROFLMAO!

@Daniel Roig Daniel, A question. When the Chinese factory (funded by loans in China) is producing vehicles, where will the money made go? It will be used to reinvest in the AMERICAN side of the company developing and building the Semi, model Y, etc! Are you saying that Chinese money, repatriated by an American company, used to create American jobs (NOT just at Tesla!) and boost the American economy, is a bad thing?

But Tesla was started by Elon who is South African. So in theory, Tesla is South African made

@@whathappenswhen4767 Yes, and microsoft is from america, and when it bought out mojang, who was created by a swedish man, microsoft is now swedish?

@@whathappenswhen4767 Tesla was founded in America and Elon Musk has the American nationality so practically Tesla is an African-American company

2.3??? That’s insane

The Model S was the fastest production car of any kind for a few years. It isn’t anymore, but it is still the fastest production sedan. The 2020 Roadster is expected to hit 60mph in 1.9sec or less.

How many 0-60 in 2.3 seconds can you do before discharging the battery?

@@BillMeyerShow too many

Speed runs on electricity drain range just like speed runs on gasoline. However, a 100kWh battery is huge.

Just a week ago it puked out 60 hahahaha you might want to look up a replay of the falcon heavy here on youtube

Tesla needs a musle car and a SUV to push the idea that electric cars are not the golf carts.

@@snowsnow4231 Model S, Model X, Model 3

Thanks so much!

Elon dis say small parts like USB cables come from overseas but he could easily source them locally if need be for now it's cheaper to buy them in bulk with his current suppliers

Yes, and rare earths from China, ICs from Taiwan, cobalt from Africa, lithium from South America etc...

@@zolikoff That's simply because these materials don't exist anywhere else

@@AndrewJamison79 Actually, many parts come from large established suppliers, many from Europe. Parts like brakes and ABS, suspension, steering, hinges, connectors ... s3-prod.autonews.com/s3fs-public/CA10076284.PDF

You mean by living off on government subsidy.

Wild Bill Like so many other IS car companies.

@@bmstyleeby subsidy do you mean taxes? I mean isn't the problem with American industry that it's been taxed away to China and other countries? Also Trump got rid of a lot of the subsidies that Tesla and other electric companies had. Tesla has sold the most cars it ever has in its history as a company during his administration.

@@bmstylee The International Monetary Fund and World Bank produce an annual report that details global energy subsidies across all sectors. Guess what? In the USA, the FOSSIL FUEL industry enjoys subsidies and kick-backs of $880 BILLION. Go check out the report. It's very detailed and in parts very complex, so a person like you may have a little difficulty in understanding it, but give it a go.

@@bmstylee Tesla and ford only US car companies not to go bust or get a government bail out.

I honestly want to reply and also say that owning a ICE isn't a "bad" thing either - most logical people will understand that as of today, there's still a big need for them. I had to sell my truck to afford the tesla, and I do miss it, when I need to do truck things.

@@nerocomful Ditto. Going to hold onto my 3 for years, but when I do replace it, I'm going to get an INSANE electric truck.

@@stevenday2067 I just hope the current design grows on me. It's.. unique :D

@@nerocomful There is no current design. No official render. Nothing besides some vague descriptions from Elon about it being a Blade Runner looking beast. He said he's afraid most people won't like it - but he has a less extreme version ready to produce in case the primary one doesn't do well. We should see it later this summer I believe, for the first time.

@@stevenday2067 Can't wait!

Might want to pre-order the Y, now, so you can lock in the rising FSD price.

Too bad for you, the whole world is salivating for a Tesla. All crapshoot news articles aside, Tesla is yet to produce enough to even come close the demand - and they've grown far faster than other car companies out there! And since Tesla is getting a lot of flak from muricans, maybe China will give them a home... just saying.

Chris Kibodeaux that’s sarcasm right?

I've owned many, many cars, but the Tesla is light years better than any car I've driven.

Yes, the dealership lobby is so bad. They've made life very hard for Tesla here in NC.

​@@TWANGnBANG ​It is also comical to listen to the car dealership guys. "It is safer.." How is it safer to buy from a dealership? Or "It serves Xs well and people prefer dealerships." If the people prefer dealerships, why do you have to have a law that outlaws going outside the dealership structure. This is really just crony capitalism: The system does nothing for consumers, and just forces companies to use middle men for no good reason. I will trust a Tesla salesman a lot more then some random car dealership guy.

TWANGnBANG even worse in Michigan and NM.

Anti-Tesla??? What media do you watch?? Environmentalists and the Left, among others, have been supporting electric cars, like Teslas, for a while now.

@Nice Guy Eddie You know what Tesla does with all the money that comes in from car sales? They inviest further into the technology to push it further. They take a HUGE gamble but manage to stay afloat. We should all thank TESLA for pioneering EV technology and making such a sacrifice for the planet as a whole. Even if they never make a good profit the have A LOT more to show for than money.

"mooing sounds" hahaha. I own a Tesla PM3 and a Silverado with the 6.2 and I'm stealing that quote.

@Nice Guy Eddie The profit is sacrificed for turning the society around in some way. That has always been Elon´s plan. But in the end, he is hoping to get on the plus side. and he should if he doesnt want Tesla to be bought up by someone else when they go bankrupt.

@Nice Guy Eddie Yeah, I agree. But Tesla was not founded to earn money initially. It was founded with a vision. I really believe that even if Tesla goes bust, Elon is happy with contributing to getting the ball rolling. He has proven that he can get a profit before with other companies, so we will just have to see. He is an engineer, a visionary. I guess Tesla will be bought up at a later date and the progress has to slow down to be able to earn money.

Send it to trump he is the idiot here

these are the only american cars I would consider buying as a european and not only consider, I WILL BUY ONE OF THOSE 100%

I saw the same thing at the most recent LA CAR SHOW, here in car-loving Los Angeles, ca. Tesla got the spot RIGHT at the entrance (Smart move) and it was SO CROWDED the fire department should have shut down the whole show. People were 7 rows deep. It was absurd. The rest of the show was a disappointment. Except for the RIVIAN thing. That looked cool, but that was just a display. Have never seen a RIVIAN driving around. But we've all seen TESLAs. And that Model 3 was the most loved car in Los Angeles.

Ya'll still got the best steering tho.

Crow's Bridge Tesla’s are 5 times less likely to catch fire than an ICE vehicle

@@crowsbridge Electric cars catch fire far less than gas cars, and when they do catch fire, the fires are slower and more survivable.

@cjhyde78 Can you name a type of vehicle which doesn't tend to catch fire?

@cjhyde78 Source on this? Do you have data ? Checked it vs an ICE car? Also, does your car full of combustible gasoline have some sort of amazing tech making it unable to catch fire? Also, have you ever seen a car catch fire that has magnesium in the block?

I live in a politically red neighborhood in GA. There are 4 Teslas in my neighborhood now. One of them is me. People are overthinking this too much. It's just a car and a really good one. One where you can fill up in your garage at half the price of gas and one that I haven't done any regular maintenance on for 19,000 miles other than pouring in some washer fluid and rotating the tires. And it's quick as hell and is really nimble on back roads.

@@flipadavis its more like 1/3 not 1/2 on fuel cost for me.

@@duketlam9206 Depends what you compare it to. If you compare to a performance car like an M3 it's closer to 1/5 or 1/6 depending on what you pay in your area for gas and electric.

@@domg7359 true. I been charging at home and have been watching my electricity consumption. Bottom line for me is about 1/3 the price in comparison to gasoline. But this all depends on your electricity cost per kilowatt/hr vs gas cost in your area.

When you think about it, most of the sound is just dirty air pushed out of a tube. Not sure why people like it

Dirty hot air, at that. Lots of wasted energy.

loud sounds are important to some people but to the generation that is coming of age right now, a slow machine that makes a lot of noise is not very cool. Harleys make a ton of noise but their target demographic is shrinking along with their sales. Hopefully the Livewire changes things for them.

Of course it pollutes, it's a partially coal powered car. Tesla is the most amazing rent-seeking crony capitalist company this side of Solyndra.

@@BillMeyerShow Good point 🥺😳🤪🤯

KMED1440 partial coal as in 30% total US electricity generation. However, most Tesla’s and other EVs are sold in ZEV states. For example, in CA, your statement is still true, at 1%. Lastly, most folks actually get solar before they get their EV. So running on partial coal is in theory true, but in reality that % is a whole lot lower than you would expect.

Unfortunately, being a good person is associated with the left. Being a good “believer” is associated with the right. Church and Patriotism-right. Helping the poor and protecting the environment-left.

@@TheThomaswastaken That's true if you follow the idea that giving people free stuff is good for them. The Right would give them jobs which is better and long-term solution but not inline with the liberal talking points cuz business/corporations are evil.

I got this one in September. 12,000 miles and counting. :)

So interesting. I just watched your Tesla video this morning from this account. As I commented on the Tesla group on reddit, I think you’re a lot closer to being able to buy one than you think. Your channel will blow up soon, and I’m glad I could help even in the slightest.

Thank you so much honestly. I've been illustrating for over a year now and it's so hard to get things going. I was so surprised when I saw the massive number of people coming over to watch me. It's mind blowing. Maybe one day I will be able to afford it but not today haha. Thank you, it means a hell of a lot more to me than you could ever know. ♥

They did not. As of now, they don't even know who I am. I think that is going to change, though... :)

I've always been curious in them but your review really showed light on why to own one . They are a little out of my price range now but maybe not in the future. Would be curious what a payment on one is like . You said you save 300 a month in gas but what's the difference in payment from your old vehicles? 300 in savings in nice but if the payment is 3 times your truck payment then is that really savings ? I think for now my new Tacoma will have to do but you never know :)

Just run the figures on a loan for $35,000 less whatever your trade-in will be. The loan is the same regardless of car brand. We bought a much more expensive version of the Model 3, but it was not any more expensive than the loaded GMC pickup I was planning to get.

@@TWANGnBANG wait so they start at 35k ? I paid more for my truck lol I always thought they were like 100k ?

Tesla belongs to Elon Musk. SpaceX belongs to Elon Musk. They will land on the Moon in the next 5 years, and on Mars in 10 to 15 years. The vehicles that will be driving on the Moon and Mars are going to be Tesla.

@@Wirmish-Elon, Elon, über alles!

I think people take issue with were a lot of their funding comes from and where the government gets the money to hand out for those tax incentives. I work in the semiconductor industry and I travel to San Jose for work often enough and have to say most people there don't speak too highly of Tesla. (in case you didn't know there is a Tesla factory there). Most of what I hear is how when Tesla moves into your area, you are the one paying for it. I don't live there so I cant confirm this, just relaying what people have told me and you know its possible that could be more of a government problem than it is a Tesla problem. For me I think a lot of the stuff they're doing is really cool, especially in regards to their space program, and I do like to see an American company succeed and innovate. I would just like to know they did it on their own merit and profit from a sound business instead of just printing more money like our government has done for plenty of companies and it self for years. I'm one of the people who is of the mind that when Dodge and GM and the banks were all failing we should have let them fail and Die. I'm the same with Tesla, if they cant cut it as a business let them die and someone better will always come along and replace you. There's always a bigger fish as they say.

@@Splincir This is precisely it. Tesla gets tons of money due to hooking up on the environmental agenda. The only reason they get so much money is because no one is buying electric cars and other companies that made them, simply dropped it. In order to keep the electric car agenda alive, they are keeping Tesla alive synthetically with tax dollars, an advantage no other American company gets. Tesla's space endeavors also aren't really that impressive. We had the technology with NASA, Obama shut down the shuttle program which forced us to use foreign rockets such as Russia to reach the International Space Station. Tesla only has the tech because all the guys who lost their jobs in NASA got picked up by Tesla. That's not really helping America overall. Tesla aren't even made in the US aside from assembly and some parts. Taking pride in Tesla as being American is like someone taking pride in Holosun optics. Tesla cars aren't even that reliable. I've owned one and it didn't even work half the time. I do like the concept of electric cars, not for the environmental aspect, but the quiet stealth, acceleration, and concept of recharging your car, however Tesla isn't it. People also have to realize, Elon Musk never made money from his companies. His wealth is specifically from stock market speculation. That's why he always does crazy stunts, the key is to draw attention to his company (good or bad) to cause his stocks to fluctuate which allows him to generate revenue. I also agree we shouldn't have bailed out the other automobile companies. The whole point of capitalism is that if a company falls, it creates an opportunity for someone to fill the void. The only thing the government should be doing is issuing tariffs (it is afterall one of the enumerated powers) to block foreign companies from killing domestic manufacturing.

China is already supporting their own electric car companies. Why can't America?
