I'm so happy that Tesla has an articulate, well-known, platformed advocate in mainstream-American, non-controversial car-loving motorhead Jay Leno. His POV about Elon and electric cars is exactly the de-politicised, common-sense, admiring attitude that one would have expected all Americans to have about such a remarkable success story. When I listened to Jay making the case, I end up thinking to myself, "how does it even happen that anyone doesn't see it that way." Thank you Jay. I'm sure you are reaching many open minds, and may even be eroding the resistance of some who reject Tesla for irrational reasons.

[@horsepackage]

Well stated.

[@WilliamHollinger2019]

I am thinking of getting a tesla but if everything electric i would join the military so I can remember gas and diesel was the best thing to happened i will drive my mom old 2nd ody until it broke.

[@GintaPPE1000]

Jay is dodging the problem, like everyone else who tries to defend Tesla. Detractors don't hate Tesla because of their cars or technology, they hate Tesla because of their abysmal QC, absolutely lousy business practices, "need to disrupt" attitude that makes interacting with them for any reason a PITA, Elon Musk's constant brash showgaming, and the double standard Wall Street treats the company with compared to the rest of the corporate world that allows them to get away with it all. This all comes from a Model S P85D first owner who had his car downgraded a year ago with no warning whatsoever. The software "update" isolated the front motor, disabled Supercharging (not just loss of free access, which I was still due another years' worth of, the Supercharger will simply refuse to charge the car) and halved my battery capacity - all for reasons Tesla still will not tell me besides "we shrink the usable battery size to preserve life as the car ages." I gave this company a chance, and they used it to milk my wallet. I'm keeping my S for now, as it does everything I need it to, but I'm through with buying Teslas until someone sues them for their depravity. If Ford operated at a loss for more than 2 straight quarters, never mind 9 straight years, Wall Street would freeze their lines of credit and send them into bankruptcy. If Mary Barra accused someone on Twitter of being a pedophile, never mind out of pure envy that he got the job done faster, she would've been sacked by her own board within hours. Ford is being sued for hundreds of millions of dollars over the PowerShift, 90% of the issues which arose because people don't know you can't crawl with a dry clutch DCT (it even says so in the owners' manual), despite the transmission causing no deaths or injuries, just safety risk. Meanwhile, over a dozen people have been killed in Autopilot crashes worldwide, and Tesla hasn't been successfully taken to court once. The world treats this company with a double standard because they're "hip," "cool," and "inventive." That's why people hate Tesla.

[@martinliehs2513]

Jay Leno is much more articulate than Elon Musk.

[@Mrcaffinebean]

GintaPPE1000 it’s not a double standard. It’s a different standard. Tesla is not a car company. They are an R&D company that happens to make cars. In the same way Amazon is not a retailer. They are a tech company that just happens to sell retail goods. What investors correctly saw in Tesla after they went public is they are much more than just a car company. So they where willing to tolerate losses year over year because they know that soon those losses will become huge margins. It’s exactly what happened with Amazon. Just consider the SuperCharger network alone. Even if car companies start churning out Tesla competition tomorrow ever one of those cars will frequently use a SuperCharger. Now that said they aren’t perfect. They certainly have had QC struggles and Customer Service struggles. But frankly neither is any other car company. At the end of the day their are enough people willing to deal with those issues to drive a remarkable car. You just aren’t one of them.

[@ZipZoomZip]

Jay Leno, I have to hand it to you. Here's why: When I was a young man, you seemed like a nice enough guy (and prettty funny to boot). But I am13 years years younger than you and you always seemed a little "old fogie" to me back in the 1980's and '90's (if you know what I mean). I think maybe your target audience was not me. But I must say, you have aged very gracefully and just become more relevant and cool. I love that you are open-minded and enjoy the qualities that make electric cars so much fun and so easy to drive (even if a bit different) and I'm super impressed to watch you experiment with the auto-pilot without being afraid of it. A lot of older guys and gals are afraid of it, as if they couldn't take over control at any time or something. You are a truely special American icon because you have stayed true to who you are. You continue to keep it real (in a fun and matter of fact way) and just keep getting better. Keep up the good work, I know you don't need the money, so you must really love doing what you do! My hat is off! Carry on!

Respect for you Mr Leno for embracing the change and being open for the new generation of technology. Your opinion influences so many car guys around the world and, by you being an advocate for Tesla, you open people’s eyes. If anybody else lists the same facts as you (Elon, me, top notch engineers, or your neighbors), people just can’t hear it. But when they hear it from YOU, they are receptive! And you know... you could be a hater too. The guy who could own any cars in the whole wide, world, why would you need a Tesla (you could easily be too cool for Tesla), that has crazy bad panel gaps, and faulty backseat alignments, etc. But instead you see the value and grasp what Tesla embodies, and you use your influence to spread that aspect of this amazing company. And that Mr Leno, that earns my respect!! Keep up the outstanding work!

[@peterferrydriver]

I don't know where you got your Tesla or if you in fact own an older one, but ours has no panel gaps or miss aligned back seats. It's build quality is excellent, as good or better than any other mass produced vehicle.

[@Zeno860331]

Dear @@peterferrydriver I am beyond happy to hear that your Tesla is perfect and congratulations for owning one. (Which one if I may ask?) I am unfortunately not a Tesla owner right now, but hopefully within the next 2 years I will be one. Right now I am just standing on the side of the pool, and jealously (but proudly) watching Tesla owners having fun in the water. I closely follow several Tesla youtubers (Ben Sullins, Andy Slye, Ryan Shaw) who are objective about Tesla, beside being a huge fan. Both Ben and Ryan just recently bought their Model Ys, and they both have very similar quality issues. (misaligned backseat, uneven panel gaps and other little things). I think Teslas are fantastic cars. I have never been bothered about them until I rented one from Turo to surprise my dad. Ever since, no other vehicle exists in my mind. The whole auto industry feels outdated after driving a Tesla. By now I have driven the S, 3 and X, and I always think that whichever I drive at the moment is my favorite. BUT.. it is a fact, that quality control is not up to the price of the cars. I am a fanboy, but I have to admit. Haters always keep bringing this up not focusing the other 200 categories where Tesla blows everyone out of the water. What I meant to highlight in my post is that Mr Leno has all the resources to be a hater, and point out all the flaws. He owns the highest class vehicles in the world. He is such an influential car enthusiast, and I love that he can see the positives and focus on them instead of being one of the small minded individual who cannot accept something that is new. Thank you for your comment, I appreciate it!

After careful inspection, we found that the the panel gaps are excellent. No other issues have been noticed. Interesting fact though.

Hey Jay! 2 things!

So the correct way to close the front trunk lid is to lower the lid & apply a steady downward pressure engaging the closing mechanism which activates the closing mechanism & allowing allowing it to secure & lock the front trunk lid in place! The other thing is the towbar that’s located in the Front trunk is for someone to tow the Tesla, not the Tesla towing another vehicle, so if you wanna tow say a trailer or something like that you have to get a special towing hitch & attach it to the rear of the car! Great looking car by the way, I love the color scheme here & as always, great job & thanks for posting this video & hats off to Tesla’s for its vision of a cleaner, brighter future! Cheers!👍🏾👍🏾

@@abstruk Tesla has a manufacturing presence in China but is the ONLY auto maker that does not have to "partner" with a local Company. Tesla is building plants in Germany and Texas. It is not bugging out of America or selling out to China, like many other companies have. It is true that China does not enforce copyright (as does much of the Far East) and delving into China has risks. I was in the auto Industry for years and the first thing all the auto manufacturers do is buy a new car from a competitor, tear it apart, and see what they can copy. I cannot comment on the reckless shambles that is Boeing but they have many many more problems than China. To suggest buying a car is causing nations to lose their freedom is perverse. VW use cheap labour in the Eastern Block (Skoda) and Spain (Seat). Mercedes uses cheap labour in Mexico - as does Ford.

[@abstruk]

@@ouethojlkjn Tesla's motives, or Musk's disdain of factory operations is fairly well understood and acceptable, given what's at stake. But if one does not confront and reject China, then the future is not as chromed as Tesla's ethos implies. I submit it is a bleak future of repression; one has to be perverse to not acknowledge China's position in that repressive future. Of course, most Americans accept this and don't give a D about this future. Sad really. BTW.-- if you doubt what is the modern state of China....go visit there and your sense of lost freedom is enough to scare the S out of your desire to change the world by buying a.Tesla or even visit a Walmart or Costco.

As for surveillance China, the USA has over 400,000 Government registered drones. Not bad for the Land of the Free. I don't hear of Chinese Police shooting dead unarmed black citizens but who knows, maybe they to that too. Again, Tesla have part of the their operation in China, and if they had the chance. Ford, GM, VW, Seat, BMW, Audi, jaguar Land Rover and everyone else would have their operation there as well. Oops they do already. And Dyson the vacuum cleaner manufacturer cynically moved all their manufacturing to the Far East but it does not seem to have put consumers off. Apple the same, Lenovo, Dell, big pharma. It is true that Tesla might be criticized for doing the same as everyone else, but not to single them out while ignoring the rest of the production world.

It’s makes so much sense that you gotta be congenitally stupid to say it isn’t better for the environment. The only problem is the charging speed. Even the charger stations themselves are a lot less invasive on the environment because they don’t need massive tanks that can potentially f**k up your groundwater.

A gas car in only a few thousand miles will pollute more than a battery what it was made.

(as does Nickel Metal Hydride batteries in the hybrid Prius) Sounds like you got high on some POTH fumes. To be clear, worldwide carbon neutrality is the paramount goal for our planetary survival, and the most impactful action is ditching all fossil fuels within the decade. As the grid gets cleaner, we CONCURRENTLY start building electrified infrastructure in every sector. You don’t wait for the grid to be 100% FF free, then go to EV’s especially when right now we can make a difference. Besides the improvement in air quality for inner cities as we have seen during covid, an efficient EV in NYS gets 306 mpg equivalent, more than 10x what a Subaru Forester gets. That is a substantial difference. See state by state from The Union of Concerned Scientists blog.ucsusa.org/dave-reichmuth/are-electric-vehicles-really-better-for-the-climate-yes-heres-why

[@heathendude9888]

@Barry Goldwater Ooooh wow Barry did you just google rare earth and Tesla? so impressed. You have a very superficial understanding of the topic at hand. Tesla does not use a permanent magnet motor, it uses a switched reluctance motor (which prior to Tesla's design, did not use any permanent magnets at all) and added a small amount of permanent magnet to overcome some inherent problems of this motor design - in the process they designed a whole new type of electric motor. The Model 3 uses a tiny fraction of permanent magnet material compared to a permanent magnet motor, and all the talking heads popping off about rare earth shortages on the internet are basing their calculations as if Model 3 were using a classic permanent magnet motor. It does not. Nothing to see here folks.

@@deanzOOO 26:50 I was thinking something similar at first, but this was my thought process after rewatching it: The manner in which he portrays "people" asking him that question may indicate he has some contempt for either that type of person, and/or that particular question. Given his status, I'd wager that he's been asked this before regarding other vehicles because he's actually been given cars before. After reciting the question in a rather sarcastic and dismissive tone, he follows it up by stating that he purchased one himself (not that it would be difficult for him given his affluence) and made sure to emphasize that he paid full price. This would imply that he didn't receive any discounts, which he most likely has been given before on other purchases. The way in which he said it seemed to come across that he was appealing to the every-man implying that he too has to pay full price for what he wants to purchase. Juxtapose this with the following story of how he had a direct line to the owner of a multi-million dollar company to place an order for a vehicle that he was willing to pay full price for anyway; a process that could have been done online as everyone else is able to do. The idea that it was virtuous for him to pay full price for a product seems to fade when he likely used his connection with Elon to jump in line for a car that most people had to be put on a waiting list for. Granted, I didn't miss the point where Jay stated that Elon gave him his number with the idea of contacting him for an order.

[@paulgolden6012]

To whomever did the editorial on this video: please open up by 1 to 2 stops and remove some of the contrast. The exposure looks OK in the wide shots, but the interior shots are impossible to see what's going on. I've notice that you are crushing the black levels too much. I know that can look "cinematic" but it's important to see the details of the vehicle, so you need to back off the contrast and open things up. This seems to be the case with Jay's videos for the last few months, so it's not a one-off problem. I would rather have some noise and see what's going on versus the murky black you see when Jay's showing off the trunk space. It look like a black hole, and I'm on a calibrated iMac Pro monitor with HDR.

[@bwxmoto]

I guarantee you it has nothing to do with camera settings when shooting video and everything to do with final render of video as RGB 0-255 instead of 16-235 in the video editor. KZbin falsely flags full RGB vids as limited RGB vids and crushes the blacks and blows out the whites in it's encoding process and wrecks the video. You render and upload your vids with RBG 16-235 in the first place to avoid this problem on youtube.

10:08 I think that "tow hook" is designed to screw into the front of the car to pull the vehicle from the front in case there's a problem with it ... it's not for towing things behind it.

[@alanrogers7090]

When you showed the "frunk", you showed the towing bracket, but talked about towing a trailer. That bracket is for an emergency where the Tesla itself needs to be towed. There is a small circle of plastic in the front bumper that this tool screws in to. This prevents damage by normal tow trucks with their straps and chains from damaging your Tesla. Then, when you are all done with it, you just unscrew it from the bumper, cover the hole again, and put it back in the frunk. There is a separate place in the back, under the license plate that comes open to add a normal tow hitch, if you didn't order your car with one. It is $1000 extra to have a tow hitch.
