Shoot us a Text.Today, we're talking about how the White House lawn became a Tesla dealership yesterday. Plus, we're covering Ford's investment into EV charging for its drivers and how Southwest is ending its longstanding free bag policy.President Donald Trump, long an opponent of Joe Biden's EV push, threw a political curveball on Tuesday by inspecting—and even considering purchasing—a Tesla at the White House. The moment was seen as an olive branch to Elon Musk, a vocal supporter of Trump's administration and a key player in the EV industry.Despite campaigning against Biden's EV mandates, Trump praised Tesla's technology and price points at the event.His appearance with Musk comes amid protests and boycotts of Tesla by liberal groups unhappy with Musk's alignment with conservative policies.Tesla's stock, which saw its worst day since 2020 on Monday, rebounded slightly after the event.While admiring Tesla's tech, Trump drew the line at a new model lacking a steering wheel, saying, “I'm going to pass on that.”An eagle-eyed photographer at the event noticed that the President's handwritten notes looked a lot like a sales pitch for Tesla, with phrases like “Teslas can be purchased as low as $299/month or $35K.”Ford has officially delivered over 140K NACS adapters to its EV customers. This move grants Ford EV drivers access to Tesla's vast Supercharger network, marking a major step toward simplifying public charging and expanding infrastructure options.The milestone follows Ford's 2023 announcement to integrate Tesla's Supercharger network into its ecosystem.Ford EVs now have access to over 20,000 Tesla Superchargers—up from 15,300 last year and Ford's BlueOval Charge Network has  over 180,000 chargers at over 50,000 locations, making it North America's largest public integrated charging networkIn February, Tesla Superchargers accounted for nearly 20% of Ford EV charging stops.Plus, Ford EV drivers using Apple CarPlay can now plan Tesla Supercharger stops directly in Apple Maps EV Routing, eliminating the need for a separate app.Southwest Airlines is making a major shift, announcing that starting May 28, it will charge for checked bags—ending its long-standing “bags fly free” policy. The change aims to boost profitability but may alienate loyal travelers.Only Rapid Rewards A-list members and business fare passengers will still get free checked bags.CEO Bob Jordan framed the move as part of an effort to attract new customers and improve profitability. Southwest has also announced plans to introduce assigned seating by 2025, revamp its fare structure, and expand its international routes to stay competitive.Southwest previously touted free checked bags as a key reason customers chose the airline.Delta CEO Ed Bastian sees an opening to attract Southwest passengers, saying, "Those customers aHosts: Paul J Daly and Kyle MountsierGet the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/ Read our most recent email at: https://www.asotu.com/media/push-back-email

Our experts share their first impressions of the 2024 Tesla Model 3. For 2024, the Model 3 gets a major freshening with updated styling, acoustic glass for all of the windows, an 8-inch touchscreen for rear passengers, and a softer ride. While these are all good changes, we also talk about how the controls and updated blind spot warning system leave us wanting more. We also answer audience questions about the lack of van-like vehicles on the market and which safety systems we'd design for future vehicles.

A few days ago, Tesla CEO fired the executive in charge of its Supercharger network and most of the people working for her, throwing the entire industry into a state of confusion.  We talk about that decision and what we've learned about it since. We also talk about driving the Acura ZDX and other EV news of the week. But, mostly about the Tesla Supercharger network.

In a surprise twist, Tesla, a forerunner in the electric vehicle (EV) industry, relieved a significant fraction of its team responsible for EV infrastructure, specifically chargers, from their roles this week. This development potentially delivers a challenging blow to the Biden administration's comprehensive plan for boosting the EV landscape across the nation. The cuts appear to significantly affect the workforce responsible for the 'Supercharger', an innovative charging technology by Tesla, according to sources cited by E&E News. Recognized by many as an industry leader, Tesla's Supercharger station is known for rapidly and efficiently charging EVs, setting it apart from its market peers. As such, it's been a crucial piece in the broader, nationwide EV charging infrastructure puzzle, a point highlighted by the current administration's green energy vision. Tesla's Supercharger has garnered much attention and respect in the EV market due to its superior performance capabilities. It stands out among competitor products, both in its ability to charge vehicles speedily and its consistent reliability. These qualities are not always embodied by other market alternatives and contribute to its status as one of the premier charging systems available. Several automotive companies, Ford being a notable example, have capitalized on the advanced Tesla Supercharger technology. These companies have secured agreements to utilize the high-performing Tesla Supercharger infrastructure for their EVs, demonstrating the universal appeal and promise of Tesla's solution in the industry.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Tesla has opened its superchargers to non-Tesla vehicles! However, how easy is it to find one that's compatible with one in a big city? Mikah shares a PSA about "MFA Bombing" targeting Apple users. The FTC could sue TikTok over how the company handles its users' privacy and security. What is 'Project Ghostbusters'? And what does one tech reviewer think of the Apple Vision Pro after using it for over a month? Emily Dreibelbis of PCMag joins us for this Tech News Weekly episode! She shares her experience using Tesla's superchargers with a regular EV vehicle and how difficult it is to find a Tesla charger that will work with non-Tesla EVs. Mikah talks about a recent phishing attack targeting Apple users by exploiting a bug in Apple's reset feature called 'MFA bombing.' Karissa Bell of Engadget talks about how TikTok is now facing possible charges from the FTC for handling users' privacy and security within the platform.
