If you have even a passing interest in Teslas \u2014 including and especially their recently-released Model Y, which I call \u201cthe most important vehicle since Henry Ford\u2019s Model T some 112 years ago \u2014 then chances are you know Ryan Shaw and love his deeply informative, highly objective and sincere videos.

I\u2019ve come to admire Ryan because, like me, he\u2019s undeniably a fan of Tesla and Elon Musk, while at the same time keeping his enthusiasm and support in check: while he has no reservations about gushing his praise for their vehicles and technology generally, he\u2019s quick to enumerate all faults, critiques, and criticisms as appropriate.

Just before the COVID-mandated shut down of Tesla\u2019s Fremont factory went into effect back in March, Ryan and I were in the queue for our respective Model Y orders; it was a patient game of waiting to see who would take delivery first, a game that he won after a clever last minute order configuration change.

Since then, he\u2019s produced numerous videos highlighting his experiences with his Model Y \u2014 the good as well as the decidedly not-so-good \u2014 so if you haven\u2019t yet discovered Ryan\u2019s YouTube channel with a whopping 30,000 subscribers nearly, then you\u2019d do well to do so.

After a few months of back-and-forth Twitter exchanges with Ryan, it occurred to me to just invite him to my podcast so we could share our thoughts and experiences on the Model Y generally, while also diving into a great conversation on Tesla\u2019s anticipated robot-taxi fleet and all things autonomous vehicles generally.

It\u2019s a wonderful conversation and I think you\u2019ll enjoy it very much. Meanwhile, please be sure to check out Ryan\u2019s YouTube channel, and follow him on Twitter at @RyanShawTech.
