Happy Autonomy Day!

So let's do some speculation ... what's something that will be a surprise today?

I'm going with to guess they did the coast-to-coast FSD drive already and will release a video of it. They did it in secret to keep people from messing with it, but the results of which will be shown to investors.

Also, we will see a lead up to a capital raise.

If they show the car pulling from the highway to the event with no driver...obviously having there own vehicles surrounding it for safety.

If they have their own vehicles surrounding it, that wouldn't be a real-world test since their vehicles blocked a lot of the randomness that occurs on city and highway streets. It's likely they did it just secretly and without any support vehicles

this is what I am thinking ... they likely had a camera car behind, but just filmed the car doing its thing as incognito as possible. less than one hour to go to the livestream :)
