Jason Oppenheim, founder of Oppenheim Group ($5B+ in real estate sales), just sold his Bentley for a @Tesla Model Y and is so blown away by FSD that he’s buying Teslas for 10 employees:
"This is the most important video I've ever posted. Tesla's self-driving is life-changing. It's so safe. I was on the phone with my brother last night, and I made him buy one. He literally bought one while we were talking. I'm buying 10 of my employees a Tesla with FSD. It's 8x safer than the average driver. There's nothing more important than the safety of you and your loved ones. Let's make our communities safer. I hope you'll at least consider going and getting a test drive."
I've been saying for a couple months now that FSD has become a material driver of Tesla sales in North America. Some people said it's just been anecdotal evidence, but more and more videos and stories like this are popping up. It's not anecdotal anymore. Word is spreading fast. FSD is going mainstream.
Jason's full video linked in thread below.
Immediately after @SECWAR State of the Force speech, Project Meridian held its inaugural meeting with @elonmusk@newtgingrich and @PalmerLuckey.
And today, the full board met at the Pentagon for the second meeting.
The nation owes a debt to @JGebbia and his excellent team. They worked incredibly hard, with no compensation, to make government services work better for all Americans.

I think it's a significant positive step that the leaders of every major American lab have committed to implementing robust internal controls and multiple layers of audits and reviews. This should give people more confidence that the technology each lab is building will work as intended.
Cybercabs are already giving public rides in Austin — no steering wheel, no pedals.
Honolulu has tourism, the airport corridor, and island logistics that the whole world watches.
@Tesla@elonmusk@robotaxi — what’s the path to FSD / Cybercab testing in Hawaiʻi?
We’ll help make it real.
Based in Honolulu building robotaxi-ready ops for Hawaii.
Tourism + airport + island logistics = one of the highest-visibility markets on Earth.
@Tesla@elonmusk — what’s the path to FSD/ Cybercab testing here?
We’ll help make it real.
Why no Cybercabs or any sort of Robotaxi testing in Honolulu yet? This would help so much with marketing to a worldwide audience of visitors to the islands @elonmusk@aelluswamy@Tesla_AI@Tesla@robotaxi
This is the life of a Teslanaire I see myself living one day.
$TSLA at $2,500.
Cybercabs lined up outside.
Tesla Bots handling the work around the house.
A beautiful home with my family relaxed, and time completely mine.
Some people will look at this and see an AI-generated fantasy.
I look at it and see a real preview of what my life will look like one day.
I’m locked and loaded for the Cybercab launch.
This is the day I’ve been waiting for for years… and it’s finally here.
The next chapter of Tesla is about to be written.
And somehow, I get to be there in person and witness the first page.
The feeling of getting in my first public Cybercab… I’m ready.
Let’s make history.
If you still think Tesla is just a car company, you’re missing the bigger picture.
Optimus could become Tesla’s next massive business. 🤖
Tesla isn’t simply building a humanoid robot — the goal is to mass-produce millions of general-purpose robots capable of performing a wide range of useful tasks.
Fremont → Up to 1M Optimus/year
Giga Texas → Up to 10M Optimus/year
Cars were just the beginning.
FSD taught Tesla how to build real-world AI. Optimus could give that AI a human-like body and bring it directly into the physical world.
The next 12–18 months could show us just how close Tesla is to making this a reality.
Tesla’s future is AI, autonomy, energy and robotics.
And Optimus could become the biggest business of them all.
