Second installment of three abount Tesla ownership in Japan, and EVs in general. This is while waiting for my 2020 Model 3, but i now drive a 2023 Model Y Performance ... a testimony of how much I like Tesla, EV Life, and Red.

I ordered a 2020 Tesla M3SR+ and wanted to start a channel to showcase Tesla ownership in Japan. EVs were pretty rare then, and even now in 2023. Btw, I recently took delivery of a 2023 Model Y Performance ... which tells you how impressed I am with Tesla, EV Life, and Red.

While trying to capture the delicious symphony emanating from my Triumph Bonneville, a few things did not go right 😜. First, while in RAIN mode, the traction-control lost traction on the slippery leaves. Next, on a dead-end road that normally has ZERO traffic, a delivery van and a Random Lost Person ruined the shot. Finally, attempting to get some aerial shots, I parked Jrone-kun over the road, not only making ”angry wasp” whine, but also a proximity sensor beep … then must’ve hit the stop button, getting no aerial video. Forgetting that “what goes up, must come down,” was shocked to meet the returning tall van, and worried sick about my low-altitude drone … missed by mere centimeters! Enjoy

My wife and I, with some friends took a road trip around Mt. Fuji from our home in Yokohama, Japan. This was posted on my Tesla Gaijin channel in 2020. We drove our then-new 2020 Tesla Model 3SR+ and had a great time. (btw, I now drive a 2023 Tesla Model Y Performance) Hope you enjoy!

Showing off my Electric Frunk with an incredible background ... Mount Fuji !! While on a road trip, came across this location, and couldn't help but stop. A sea of pampas grass, great lighting, and my buddy's drone gave me a perfect opportunity to show the utility of the automatic frunk opener.

Gorgeous sunset from my house, but needed to "get above" to see Mt. Fuji, about 80 km away.

Messing around with my drone (Jrone-kun) at the Chojagasaki parking lot. Just southwest of Yokosuka Navy base, there's a great view of Mount Fuji beyond Sagami Bay. I've since traded my Tesla Model 3 SR+ for a '23 Tesla Model Y Performance, both are a fantastic ride! BGM by Barnaby!

August 7, 2022 2nd service

I've lived in Japan since 1969, and haven't really visited CONUS for a few decades. After much socio/politic/pseudo-cultural upheaval, then 2 years of waiting to use a ticket I purchased just prior to the COVID madness, I was concerned about my homeport. Three weeks and 4000 miles of driving the South, up the Eastern seaboard to Philly, then back, my final stop was Nashville TN, a place I'd never visited. My sister got tickets for the Grand Ole Opry, but as a RnR/ProgRock guy wondered if I would like the show. This fellow (I now know he is Jason Crabb) came out and blew away any fears and doubts! America still is my home, my heart, and I know afresh that many, many folks love the USA!
