"Good but your messaging and the POTUS postings have been unhelpful confusing divisive and have made the appearance of impropriety much worse. Just do the right thing get your messaging under control and release everything no matter who might be implicated.

"Here are some clips from my day today with Konnie who is blind & came in all the way from South Dakota to try out the @tesla @robotaxi service. Konnie is a remarkable & inspirational person who runs a website Gliding Through Blindness & makes YouTube videos with the help of several products & services to document her adventures. She is also highly adept with technology & what it offers to help people like her with disabilities not only regain independence but live a full & highly productive life In these clips we talk about opportunities for the @Tesla_AI & @robotaxi teams to make the service" @JoeTegtmeyer on X 2025-07-15 22:54:16 UTC 76K followers, 38.9K engagements
"One issue for the @Tesla @robotaxi team when it comes to vehicle arrival & communicating with the passenger especially if the passenger is blind is where the car eventually stops. In this case the car had to drive further than the original pickup point because of parked cars along the roadway but this meant a much farther walk for the passenger & this was not immediately obvious to Konnie who is blind & cannot see the displayed information on the app. There is an opportunity to make improvements perhaps with @xai @grok integration to use verbal communication to help mitigate issues like this." @JoeTegtmeyer on X 2025-07-16 00:51:52 UTC 76.1K followers, 56.4K engagements
"Kevin came to Austin via Nicaragua to try out the @Tesla @robotaxi service for the 1st time He's a long time FSD beta tester but has not experienced it on the newer cars with AI4 computer hardware & the latest version of FSD He also tried out a Waymo just before getting in the Robotaxi so what did he think of the two autonomous ride sharing services To find out he decided to test it at the challenging @TerryBlacks_BBQ parking lot where so many other autonomous cars have struggled (in well publicized video clips since the launch of the Robotaxi service XX days ago) . did it pass this test" @JoeTegtmeyer on X 2025-07-04 19:07:50 UTC 76K followers, 19.6K engagements

"I have not seen anyone posting about this @robotaxi app upgrade on the latest 25.7.6 version so heres a screen capture I did today. When the taxi arrived there was now a button that said find my Taxi and pushing it brings up this arrow with distance that helps guide you to the location it stopped at if it isnt close to your current location. This is in addition to the blue dot and dotted line that was on the previous version. There have been a few occasions on earlier Robotaxi rides where this would have been very helpful. Glad to see the continued improvements" @JoeTegtmeyer on X 2025-07-23 00:21:04 UTC 76.1K followers, 62.4K engagements
"Brad is a big time @Tesla supporter from Australia who flew in to try out both FSD in a rental Model X & try out @robotaxi along with his brother Tony and friend Clint from Ohio. Hes excited about the potential of autonomous driving but its not yet available in his country. However @TeslaAUNZ is showing some promise it may be coming there sooner than later which he cant wait to see Brad was amazed at how well the system worked remarked about how much easier it made getting around in an unfamiliar city & on the wrong side of the road & even got to see some complex decision making when a gate" @JoeTegtmeyer on X 2025-07-19 23:23:38 UTC 76.1K followers, 37.1K engagements

"What is going on with the @Tesla lower cost vehicle Good question as we were expecting to hear something officially about production beginning in the 1st half of 2025 especially since we are well into the 3rd quarter now. There is a theory that was posited by @TeslaBoomerMama recently with @herbertong on a Cyber Bulls video & I think there may be some validity to this line of thinking. I expand a little here while also using some audio from Lars Moravy during the 1st Qtr financial results meeting. Hopefully we will get more clarity soon perhaps at the upcoming XX July 2nd Quarter Financial" @JoeTegtmeyer on X 2025-07-09 20:11:11 UTC 76.1K followers, 60.8K engagements

"Oh my god Ive hit the big time and Dan OClown is trying to use me to push his sad narrative to try and bolster his failing company that cannot compete. He also takes what I said out of context (surprise). The only thing I was disappointed about yesterday is he didnt step out from the bushes and throw a mannequin at the @robotaxi to try and capture another shocking video so disappointed 😏 I guess the only thing left to achieve now is for him to block me just imagine the sheer courage and conviction it will take Dan to hit that block button and show me up Cmon Dan do it 🤓" @JoeTegtmeyer on X 2025-07-15 12:11:30 UTC 76.1K followers, 77.7K engagements

"1st time @robotaxi ride for @DomRafaelJose a former member of the US Air Force an iOS developer & longtime @Tesla supporter who was very interested in the app its functionality & how it compared to his experience with the Uber app used in Austin to get Waymo rides. He noticed the low latency & snappy responsiveness of the app while we were in the robotaxi & showed me how it linked automatically to my phone using Bluetooth We repeated this test on three different rides to verify how this functionality works Check this & other thoughts Dom had about the service how the car drove & his overall" @JoeTegtmeyer on X 2025-07-12 22:46:01 UTC 76K followers, 14.5K engagements

"Screen shots of my first trip through the expanded @robotaxi service area This new area really opens up the opportunities to expand Austin and get to locations a lot of people will want to get to Asked on my experience one thing @Tesla needs to do is add more vehicles to the fleet to get wait times back down from about 20-ish minutes to around XX minutes.

My honest opinion is . AWESOME Competition is great more players in the space will help with regulators ensuring safe growth this helps spreading the word to a larger population & makes autonomy more prevalent which will help millions of people while making our roads safer What isn't to like What an outstanding time to be alive be inspired by technology & look to a better future Let's go" @JoeTegtmeyer on X 2025-07-17 17:00:47 UTC 76K followers, 23.2K engagements
