Dr. Know-It-All John Gibbs Talks Tesla, Full Self-Driving, & AI
: So, let me go back in time. Obviously, Tesla and SpaceX I was interested in since maybe the early 20-teens. I think the Roadster originally, I saw that, and I was like, ‘Oh, that’s just a rich people’s toy.’ And so it didn’t really make much of an impact. But the Model S when that came out, I was like, ‘Wow, I really wish I could afford that,’ you know, still too expensive for a middle-class person, but it was getting down and it really looked like an awesome product.
I already had another YouTube channel that I’ve had since 2012, where I do a lot of adventure videos and stuff. We had just gotten back from Mount Everest, and I thought, let’s just try this thing and see what happens. And so I started off by basically [having] people ask me questions and me live answering them. You know, just off the cuff and then seeing if I was right or not.
EVANNEX: No, that was perfect! Yeah, I think that’s super fascinating — how much AI has started to become in this kind of mainstream narrative with Tesla popularizing this idea of like, a car as like a smart vehicle.Yeah, the weird thing is, you know, I’m older and I grew up at least watching reruns of things like the Jetsons, where they had Rosie the Robot and cars that drove them and flew and things like that, too.
EVANNEX: What are some things you think potential Tesla buyers should know that often get overlooked?: I think the biggest thing that people need to look past is the sticker price, and that has become less and less of an issue, especially now with the $7,500 US tax credit, at least for buyers in the United States. We bought our Tesla Model Y in December of 2020. And it was expensive, you know — you’re looking at that going like, ‘Whoa, the sticker price of this thing is really high.
So, it’s very, very close to double the sticker price, but when you did a five-year look at the two of them, the total cost of ownership of an EV is even less than something that the sticker price is half the price. So, I think a lot of people miss that. They don’t understand how much cheaper it is to own an EV.
So, my experience is for road trips, that FSD is something that I can’t live without, practically, anymore, because I go to see my parents and it’s about a 10-hour drive. Or anywhere else, that’s a long drive, and to actually have to drive the car for that long sucks. [laughs] But in terms of the city driving, the quality of city driving — like you know, having to deal with lights and left-hand turns and city traffic, and all of that kind of stuff — it’s much more complicated than highways.
