Our 2016 Model X has the free-supercharging-for-life perk that pays for every road trip. Buying a new Tesla? Use our referral and get $1,000 off the price.
Keeps the cargo kit organized in the back of the X. Collapses flat when not in use. The reason the cooktop, air fryer, fridge, and power station coexist back there.
The power station that runs the Tailgate Kitchen. Big enough to run an induction cooktop at the supercharger. Quiet, fast-charging.
One charger does laptop, phone, tablet, watch at the same time. Two of them in the kit, full creator-charging at every supercharger stop.
Runs off the DJI Power 1000. Cooks anything a stovetop can. The core of the Tailgate Kitchen series.
One pan, every dish, road-trip indestructible. Sears a steak on a picnic table the same way it does at home.
In the car kit. Quick, low-power, perfect for road-trip cooking when the picnic table isn't the right vibe.
Lives in the trunk. Runs off the DJI Power station for charging stops. Cold drinks and real groceries for the whole trip.
Internet anywhere. The backbone of the While You Wait live podcast and uploading content from the road. Sign up through us, we both get a free month.
Powers the Starlink Mini straight off the X's 12V port. Internet on the move without firing up the big power station.
Main rig for long-form interviews + B-roll. Mix of mirrorless bodies and DJI gimbals for the moving shots.
The pump-jack hero shot from the Calgary pilot was a DJI. Anything that needs to fly comes from here.
