As rideshare drivers, we always want to give the best possible experience to our passengers, getting high ratings and possibly a higher tip. With that in mind, could you imagine if you pulled up to your passenger in a Tesla? It might sound a little crazy, but in this podcast episode, I interview rideshare driver Andy Slye, who recently filmed his passengers’ reactions to being picked up in his Tesla.

Intro Today, we’re talking about a pretty cool topic: Tesla!
I found YouTuber Andy Slye while doing research on a Tesla Model 3, and I wanted to bring him on today because his YouTube channel is really informative (both about tech and Tesla)
Today’s guest, Andy Slye, also picked up rideshare passengers in his Tesla and filmed their reactions (with permission, of course!) to being picked up in a Tesla
I’ll be doing a lot more with Tesla in upcoming YouTube videos, so make sure you head over to our YouTube channel and subscribe to get the latest!
Interview with Andy Slye Andy is a tech YouTuber and videographer based in Louisville, KY
He’s been driving for Uber with his Tesla Model 3 since 2018 and is currently the world’s top Tesla referrer with over 280 referrals
Drives for Lyft Premier rides
Has to give a certain number of rides before he can drive for Uber Select
Making the YouTube Tesla Reactions Video Andy Slye “Picking Up Uber Riders in a Tesla Model 3! (REACTIONS)”
Decided to record on a football game day, didn’t think it would work but thought he would give it a try
All of the reactions in the video were from the same two hour window – every single person agreed to be on camera
Most people didn’t really know what the Model 3 was before getting into Andy’s car – only one person knew about it
The only thing people struggled with were how to open the door handles and how to get out of the car (one electronic button)
World’s Top Tesla Referrer While driving passengers in the Tesla, many mentioned wanting to buy one for themselves
Andy is the world’s top Tesla referrer – no discount on the Tesla, but if someone signs up with your code, they get 6 months of free supercharging
Tesla’s strategy is word of mouth, letting fellow drivers educate people on Tesla
Getting Started with YouTube Started 10 years ago – right out of high school
Started with sketch comedy
Screencast tutorial – Tech Channels
Still has full-time 9-5 job. Planning to go full-time YouTube this year
Strategies for YouTube Success Three keys to Andy’s YouTube Success
#1 – Already on YouTube Stuff (didn’t start from zero – established audience)
#2 – Finding something you’re super excited about
#3 – Perfect timing – One of the first folks to begin YouTubing about the Model 3
Over 280 referrals to Tesla based on his videos
Outro Big thanks to Andy for coming on the podcast, I recommend you check out his channel on YouTube (links below) not only for Tesla but also for tech
Appreciate seeing someone with such passion for what he does, even though he’s not even doing this full time yet
Stay tuned for more content on Tesla, driving a Model 3, driving Tesla for Uber/Lyft, etc.
