On this week's episode, A Ride the Lightning and the unofficial Tesla podcast, many 75D model

S and X owners are getting a full second shaved off of their cars zero to 60 times for free,

fired Tesla workers protest at the factory in Fremont, the model 3 free,

fired Tesla workers protest at the factory in Fremont,

the model three long-range battery may be even better than advertised, and more. Oh, Welcome friends it is Ride the Lightning the unofficial Tesla Tesla Podcast, Episode 117 for October 29th, 2017.

I'm Ryan McCaffrey joined.

But yep, she's asleep, sleeping, Daisy the boxer puppy. Good to be with you here as October wraps up and we start to head into November,

which hopefully means some of you will start to get your cars.

Those initial customer delivery windows were late October.

That does not appear to be happening for now. You've got Elon Musk sleeping on the roof of the

Gigafactory. I'll get to that in a little while with the

production bottlenecks. But first I wanted to mention the Tesla earnings call

for Q3 is going to be coming up next week so a lot of people tend to enjoy

those episodes of this podcast I really do too they're a hassle to make but

they're really fun when they're done and put together.

Because I'll take my usual spiel, which is I'm going to listen through the whole thing,

take notes, have points on everything, and serve you up the very best of it in the form of

clips of Elon and the Tesla Executive Team speaking and then any analysis and discussion that I feel is warranted around that.

So look for that on next week's episode.

And then the other thing before we get started, this ties into the

75D performance upgrades that we're going to hear about from some very, very satisfied

75D S and X owners here in just a minute.
