Teslanomics YouTuber Ben Sullins referred more than 55 new Tesla owners to qualify for a free Founder’s Series next-gen Roadster.
Although the car isn’t slated to be released until 2020, Sullins is looking forward to owning his third Tesla to go with his Model 3 and Model S. “I'm definitely going to take one on a long road trip with my wife up and down the California coast as I promised her already,” Sullins tells CNBC Make It. “Other than that, I want to share it with people, I want to take people for rides, I want to go to car events.
"I want to do what Elon has intended to do with the car, which is to remove the halo from gas-powered cars to electric cars.”
Two years ago, Sullins, 36, quit his full-time, six-figure job as a data scientist to become a full-time content producer for his blog and YouTube channel Teslanomics. He qualified for the free Roadster in 2017; to date, over 100 people have used his referral link to purchase their own cars.
