good to see Sandy and Cory interacting with Tesla community

[@dominicmcnamara]

Everyone is freezing cold and shaking, but Sandy from Michigan......no problems, standard day. Sandy is a friggin legend......honesty, brutal honesty in every word.

[@markplott4820]

but, whats with the Life Jacket Sandy is wearing , did he jump ship ?

[@RedlioNxTR]

You can see his passion when he's talking about the engineering. Respect this man!

Dude is a literally a American Automotive legend. He's torn down more cars than anyone else and seen four decades of rise, decline, stagnation and now the EV rise of the US Auto industry.

[@vagabond0078]

35 minutes!!! Thank you very much!

[@10melvis]

Sandy has such a good heart. Been tipping my cashier for months since he suggested this.

[@moreboost]

I love how Sandy is so real an tells it like it is. Never lose that Sandy!

[@jomama55ful]

Sandy, best video yet. It is great to see you working the crowd. The real deal.

[@dantebarnes8187]

My hope is to be youtube famous at 55. xD

[@fmlalonde]

I love you man. I’m a staff scientist at the NIH working on the details of MRI brain imaging. More in line with Neuralink but I’ve been a car guy since I was 9 years old, going to the public library to read Formula magazine (I’m 64). Love the detailed impartial assessment of Tesla. I’m sure they watch you at Tesla and have a bunch of like-minded people working for them. Keep up the good work!

[@richardalexander5758]

My cashiers thank you Sandy! ...and we humans are also confused by multiple oddly placed lines and seams on the road.

Is this cashiers in supermarkets, shops, and restaurants? It isn't the same here.

[@richardalexander5758]

@@JohnnyZenith Supermarkets and liquor stores are about all that's open around here.

[@JohnnyZenith]

@@richardalexander5758 Yeah, just supermarkets here. We don't tip them though. They already earn a decent wage. It isn't the thing to do here. God I wish I was in the US right now.

[@curtiswong454]

Huge thanks Sandy for your generosity and honesty yesterday. It was an amazing experience meeting you. You have provided more in depth analysis on Tesla tech than anyone. Have a safe trip back and look forward to more great content.

[@TimWigan]

This is a joy to take part in and feel a part of.... Thanks Sandy and team for informing, educating and entertaining us.

[@ivankuljismusic8895]

Sandy, I have spoken to friends here in Oz about the KAOS pattern on the Freeways turning into CONTROL with FSD and similar systems! _We'll 'Be Back To The Future' sooner than we think!'_ Thanks to you for your _Parallel Thinking_ I'll be driving across the Nullarbor in 2023 using the _TOURIST_ mode on my CYBRTRK because it will be driving me on one of the longest straightest roads out there! Thanks Sandy and Cory and Munro Crew 💓 _From Oz_

Hopefully Sandy you will find the table I gave you useful for the rest of your trip ;)

[@markplott4820]

I have a VIP table in my JDM car.

[@Shaolinof36thChamber]

The energy, happiness and love is legit. Wonderful and thank you, guys!

[@unkleschilke]

I am so happy to hear the excitement around autopilot managing fatigue! This is a feature that is completely undersold. As you, I, and others experienced, you can spend a long time behind the wheel and still arrive fresh, awake and safe! I believe this technology will revolutionize the long haul trucking industry as well. Stay tuned! (Hyundai's LKA is pretty good too... ;) )

[@michaelcraig1710]

What a great experience meeting Sandy and Cory!! Great insight on the entire EV sector and especially Tesla!! Thanks for taking the time to meet with us and sharing your EV knowledge!! ZERO SMOG!!

What a bizarre comparison.

Hey Sandy just a thank you for making these videos, In these times of being shut in I look forward to everyone of them. I probably watch them within 15 minutes of you posting them, I enjoy them that much. Keep up the good work. Thanks

Extremely interesting video guys! I could watch this for hours. Thank you Sandy, Corey and team! Also you need to be on camera more Corey! :)

No modern vehicle has brought so many people to together like Teslas has.

Nonsense. BMW has brought people together en masse to every BMW repair center and European car specialist.

[@RayNLA]

@@arealsourapple 😝 you’re 100% correct! I often wonder how my former mechanic is doing. Then I think to myself...”he’s probably doing better than ever”

Very good, it's good to see the Clubs greeting you and it also shows off the friendly atmosphere within the group.

Best 2021 you tube video from Sandy so far ! Great people, awesome trip, very good looking Model Y. Sandy is becoming more famous by the day..

[@Mel_ilm]

Sandy is just the best. Thank you for your brilliance, honesty and enthusiasm. Everything is spot on. I've owned a VW Golf. Such a horrible engine. They would never be able to compete with Tesla.

Sandy and Cory, what a wonderful experience and welcoming group of people. Loved that you got to see a Mega Cast Y. I'm praying Tesla's continual quality improvements & skill-building of auto's makes for a great quality CyberTruck.

[@alaasadek2908]

Bravo from Egypt in Africa

[@geofrey01]

Lane drift for missing lines. Simple fix, just program it to follow the straight line. If we can see it, the car can see it. Post it. Tesla has to listen to Sandy Munro. The rest of us are road noise. Sandy asked who was driving a car more than 15 years old. Cute. They were all Tesla owners. Got my Tesla Model Y from profit after three months on my Tesla stock. A week later they had battery day. The 2021 has two pane glass. The single casting front and rear sections. The 4680 battery pack. Solid body fit. I'll trade mine in a minute or turn it into a taxi and write off the cost of cleaning the puke. Love your channel. I'm 6.3 miles away from your shop off M-24.

[@businessguide6219]

Your videos are splendid! Thank you for giving me a new perspective to contemplate!

[@harmanx.]

Sandy may know this, but if not -- the scroll wheels on the steering wheel work as attentive driver inputs when using Autopilot. (Just moving one up or down a notch periodically usually keeps the system happy.)

[@draco_2727]

Man the way Sandy inspected that red car was a joy

[@mvj8663]

Great Video Mr. Munro i enjoyed this so much and answering their questions.

[@ADOENDRA]

O boy I'm enjoying these interactions with the people in the street. Now Sandy, take a real test and drive to Belgium. The beer is cold in the fridge ;-) And waaaaauw man that red model Y !!!! what a beauty that is!

[@IllumTheMessage]

Wow, that red Model Y with the castings is a thing of beauty.

[@KeyboardSourceError]

Sandy has a good heart and is passionate in what he does!

[@remo]

Love the Tesla community spirit 😍

[@darryldriggins4085]

This was GREAT!!!!! All these other car companies are coming out with really nice cars, but their charging system on long trips are weak. Why don't they buy into Tesla's System? All they need to do is, buy into the making of the chargers, and get into the payment program. Without the network, they will have a hard time going cross country.

[@Joshis]

I love how you describe the type of people you are looking for 👍 this has been such an awesome series

[@tacosdecamaron]

Great video! Congrats! You inspire

[@johncampbell4214]

Great Sandy as always!!

[@PaulHoke]

His "what sells cars" statement was an education in itself. Don't tell Sandy, but he'd make a great instructor for an MBA program.

[@dominicmcnamara]

I totally agree, I'm a Mechanical and Electrical Engineer, with an MBA and a Lean Six Sigma Black that now specialises in business systems and zero based budgeting.......and Sandy would be bloody excellent within MBA, Lean Systems, Operational Excellence education. Lawyers and Finance personnel......just overheads.....need not apply.

[@andrasbiro3007]

That red Y is gorgeous. I want to buy one right now. Fortunately it's not available in Europe yet.

[@donrougeux2122]

I spent 30 years in every aspect of plastics injection molding and cannot imagine filling a mold of this size in less than 4-6 SECONDS let alone a tiny fraction of that time. The injection speeds you stated are stupendous and the frictional heat must be wayyyyyy up there!!!!!!!!

[@thatsballer]

In the future would you be able to repeat their questions when you answer Sandy? I can't hear 90% of the questions asked, and I feel like I'm lost on some of your answers.

[@markplott4820]

they should have given them a Wireless mic.

[@xploration1437]

What?

[@73_de_CJHall]

Just repeat the question before answering. That's how it's been done by most if there is not another mike to pickup the others.

[@rcjbvermilion]

Turn on the closed captioning. It really helps.
