Gigafactory Texas! This is where Model Y’s, and Cyber Truck production happens and soon, the Next Generation Car!

Major milestone day for the Boring Company as crews were lifting and assembling the gantries into the tunnel and onto the aft end of the Prufrock 3! I did talk to someone I know at the Boring Company about this and they are all excited at this milestone! This also indicates the tunnel is about 80 - 100 meters in length already!

In the video introduction, I discuss some of my tour of the Boring Company facilities in Bastrop Texas and the Hyperloop plaza that is growing quickly in customers and revenue. I will do more in-depth discussions of my tour and what I learned, but will also intersperse some of the updates into my main videos as well.

I also talk about an interview I did with MYSanAtonio.com and what I talked about during the interview. Finally, I recap my experience at the Texas Corvette Association 31st Annual Car Show, where they reached out to me to feature my Cybertruck as the centerpiece display with a Time Machine Delorean. I made four videos about this event which include drone and ground-level images and video I did in support of the request to help them provide a better review of the experience of the car show for their official website and also for the City of Boerne.

A few highlights to look for today include:

In addition to the Boring Company's major milestone today, we see the Cybertrucks have been shifted around on the west side, with few to no Cybertrucks on the east and south ends of the End-of-Line facility, but many staged on the outbound lot and the new north expansion lot. We also see more Cybertrucks, almost exclusively and without Model Y's on the east testing lot near the helicopter pad
.
Crews were moving the ducting from the west staging area over to the Body-in-White and lifting these onto the roof to being finishing the large opening for the new cooling units in this area.

We see much more electrical conduit being installed just south of the electrical switchyard, forming tow parallel lines with many conduit pipes bundled together in trenches.

The south extension is getting a tremendous of work done all over this construction site, including more concrete, additional steel assembly, grade work on the ground level, roof materials being staged on the roof decking, and many more huge glass panels installed.

The mystery structure on the southeast corner continues to grow larger too, now with red scaffolding being erected on the north end. the tall concrete columns appear to have mounts cast into them about1.5 meters form the top, possibly for mounting some kind of structure or equipment.
