For this drive I'm going to be donating $.10 for each mile that I put in between these charities. I hope you'll find one that you can give to as well. Every little bit helps

FSD 14.3.3 drives so fucking well. Without exaggeration, the best self-driving experience in the world.
It makes life in Southern California 1000x better. Thank you Tesla team.

Itβs Cybercab Bonanza day at Giga Texas! Fresh off the posting yesterday showing Cybercabs autonomously driving out of the production like exit point and taking the ~2 mile trip to the W EOL and @Tesla being granted a Level 4 Autonomous @Roxotabw service license in Texas, today we see a lot of Cybercabs on the move, with the hatch open showing the wheel covers prepped for shipping, ~ a dozen lined up at the factory exit point and much more!
Check out this Cybercab action today!
Hey Matt, just a quick thank you for mentioning my drive in your video. I really appreciate you highlighting it.
To recap: I rode solo in my 2026 Model Y on FSD 14.3.2 and covered all 48 states plus DC, 7,241 miles in 9 days, 21 hours, with zero traditional driving inputs. The car did every mile of the actual driving.
I just wanted to gently clarify that I never claimed there was zero human input. There definitely was, and honestly every autonomous ride has some level of human input by definition. The question is what kind. Destination, route, preferences. Those will always exist in some form. What this drive had zero of was traditional driving input. And that distinction matters because conflating the two actually obscures the real safety story, which is that the car handled every single driving decision for 7,241 miles.
I was supervising the whole time, typing in destinations or asking Grok to change them, choosing routes each day, redirecting it to a different spot when I didn't like where it parked, occasionally using turn signals out of courtesy when cars were behind me, and a couple of brief moments on the accelerator to be a more considerate driver. It was honestly a lot like having an incredibly capable chauffeur. I was just the picky passenger giving a few preferences along the way.
When it comes to these kinds of achievements, definitions matter and they're not always simple. At what point is something truly zero human input? These are questions worth asking honestly as the technology evolves, not to diminish what FSD can do, but because getting the language right actually honors how remarkable it already is.
The overwhelming majority of the drive was in standard mode. A touch of Mad Max here and there but minimal. I actually spent more time dropping down to chill or sloth.
By the way, those 7,241 miles were only the part where I hit all 48 states plus DC. I also had to drive from home to the starting point and then back home from the finish, so the total accomplishment was actually bigger than what I've claimed so far. I just wanted to keep the focus on the time, the distance, and especially the safety of the "official" route.
The future is now and we're living in it. We will all be safer using FSD. Thanks again for the shout-out.
Some things are worth taking a few days to verify properly. This is one of them...
I'm proud to announce that I have successfully driven through all 48 contiguous states plus DC in my 2026 Tesla Model Y Juniper on FSD 14.3.2. And I did it solo. Actually, let's be accurate. I rode. FSD drove.
ποΈ May 20-29, 2026.
πΊοΈ 7,241 official miles. 9 days, 21 hours, 50 minutes.
β‘ Not a single gallon of gas. Not a single steering input. FSD drove every mile.
π΅ Total cost: $901 in Supercharger fees. Same trip in a comparable gas SUV: ~$1,303.
The moment that defined the trip: the tri-state corner of MT/WY/SD, the most remote stretch of the drive from a Supercharger standpoint. I could have taken a safer route but I wanted to get there on a single charge. I knew the risk. Turned off the AC, sweated through 95Β°F inside the cabin, arrived at 2%. Cost me a little backtracking to officially enter Wyoming. Worth every mile. π―
Call it a Gentleman's Cannonball Run. I pushed hard every single day, but with rules. Sleep every night. No tickets. No driving tired. Highway speeds. Supervising an autonomous system while exhausted is reckless. I know a little something about that. Those aren't arbitrary rules, safety is my first priority. I'm an airline pilot. βοΈ
Based on everything I've been able to find, this trip may represent three records worth noting:
π First FSD drive through all 48 contiguous states plus DC. Solo.
π Most US jurisdictions covered in a single FSD trip (49)
π Possibly first and fastest EV drive through all 48 states plus DC
All claims subject to verification. If anyone has done this before, I genuinely want to know. My data is fully logged and available.

I gave you a thoughtful, respectful reply acknowledging the important work your account claims to stand for. You answered with βSo you just set child rape aside?β : a contemptible smear that poisons genuine efforts against child exploitation.
That kind of dishonest, inflammatory garbage does real harm. I support actual action against CSAM. Smears like yours deserve nothing but contempt.
@BaconHodl I used one by Havnby. It's a hybrid that both inflates, and has a 4-in foam cushion in it. Had it since December, and I've slept probably a total of almost 20 nights in it so far. I'm 6'1 and a big guy. I slept great.
Thanks for the post. For now,take a look at the screenshot on my later post. It's from the Google Maps render of my GPS points. I spent a bunch of time fine-tuning a route and drove me a little mad. Then I just searched online for a shortest possible route and I found several. Those didn't really work for me but I did modify some of them to fit my needs. If I hadn't had to backtrack a couple of times this route would have been even shorter.
@DevoFlyer Oh man, then you know all about long hauls! MAC? I just realized I don't know if the SAC tankers were officially part of SAC or MAC. I'm glad you're out of the hospital and are able to get around.
@AndrewCHodgdon@NevrEnoughX Thank you for your service. I love Texas. I've spent plenty of time there, all over. This was just a trip to do it, in this case the journey WAS more important than the destinations.
@Beth4aa2 Yes it is. I've already been to all 50 states, most of them many many times, this was just a quick trip through it but wow, she is beautiful. Thanks for commenting!
@NevrEnoughX Ha! Love it! But... I did it on 14.3.2 still no upgrade love for me. I think I checked the software page about a thousand times during the trip π
@BaconHodl I was going to total of 15 days ( had to get to the start point, drive it, and then drive home from Washington). All but two of those nights I slept in the car.
And.....Mmmmmm.....Bacon π€€
Total charging time across 7,241 miles was 1 day 3 hours. Those were my meal and rest breaks. Not exactly a hardship. On the SUV comparison, I used comparable crossovers at 25 mpg real world, not a Civic, because I slept in the car every night for 10 days. Nobody sleeps comfortably in a Civic. Towing and cargo are fair points for specific use cases. Recyclability is more nuanced than it sounds and cuts both ways. As for viability, I just drove every state in the lower 48 in under 10 days. Solo.
