Kees is back from the U.S. and has just completed a full-blown FSD marathon. In this episode, he breaks down his 7-week road trip across America using Tesla’s Full Self-Driving software — from Cybertruck to Model Y, from Michigan to San Francisco. How good is FSD *really* in the wild? And why is V13 such a leap over V12?

We also dive into Tesla’s Master Plan Part 4, the future of robotrucking as a billion-dollar industry, and the AI talent war — where Elon recruits top engineers without even offering bonuses. The big question: is 2025 already shaping up to be as epic as predicted?

In episode 48 we cover:
