    What I will be getting to mount to my CT

    I really love the idea of these electric vehicles for rough terrain. Only thing that I'm wondering about at the moment though is what difference the quieter ride will make. For instance, when hiking in bear country you are supposed to make noise as you hike so that bears have time to hear you...

    Something from Sondors coming and looking very. cool

    I doubt it will spill any gas when laid on the side. ;)

    My journey to the Cybertruck

    Around 20 years ago I took a road trip from Tulsa to New Orleans. Started the trip just after a winter storm blew through. Along the drive many trees were down from added weight due to a large coating of ice. A couple times almost couldnā€™t get gas because the electricity was out all over. Got...

    FSD in heavy rain?

    Ok. I just finished a 5 hour drive in unfamiliar territory, in the dark, with blinding sheets of rain coming down, and a fair amount of truck traffic kicking up even more water, resulting in multiple other vehicles ending up in the ditch. Iā€™m exhausted. One thing I noticed though is that there...

    Hmm: United Airlines Orders 200 Electric Air Taxis

    Iā€™m guessing an autorotate descent from airline flying height would get really squirrelly.

    Tesla is under scrutiny by regulators in China over battery fires, unexpected acceleration, and more

    And then I go to Teslarati to find this article... Seems like an opposing Chinese view. Looking closer though it's from Tesla China so this may just be a marketing piece to start counteracting the issues above. Tesla Model 3 earns ā€˜Recommended Car of the Yearā€™ title in China for its...

    Tesla is under scrutiny by regulators in China over battery fires, unexpected acceleration, and more

    My initial thoughts on the article were that China was trying to renegotiate the deal they have with Tesla and needed something to bargain with. My second thought was that for anyone moving from an ICE vehicle to a Tesla, the regenerative braking would certainly be something to get used to so...

    Bloomberg: Amazon-Backed EV-Maker Rivian Aims for IPO This Year

    Rivian is backed by Amazon so it should be a relatively safe investment I'd think. But anyone think this one will pop right away? Or will this take a little while to get going in the stock market?

    Bloomberg: Amazon-Backed EV-Maker Rivian Aims for IPO This Year

    Rivian’s Amazon electric delivery vans deployed for road testing in Los Angeles

    Do you mean like in England where they run around each year collecting tax on how many tv's you have? Why would you continue to want to pay tax on items you own? Sales tax is already a thing. I wouldn't want to keep paying tax on things just because I kept them. Though there is a bit of tax on...

    Faraday Future To Go Public As Luxury Electric Vehicle With 'Spa Mode' Due Soon

    Tesla purchases using Bitcoin are coming as EV maker invests $1.5B in cryptocurrency

    I think people saying things like "XXX made $YYYY today" because of a price jump in said stock / asset is silly. Really $0 were "made". It's not till the stock or asset is sold that the money actually gets made. Bitcoin jumps because Tesla spent $1.5 billion in bitcoin. What do you think will...

    Tesla purchases using Bitcoin are coming as EV maker invests $1.5B in cryptocurrency

    I think the quote is supposed to be: Now, that probably was a quote that originated with the idea of gravity but it does seem to apply to things like the stock market too. Over time there have been some companies that survived a very long time but that doesn't mean they won't eventually go out...

    WORKHORSE EV vans and ARRIVAL EV vans and buses

    Hmmm... these trucks are meant to address the last mile. But they still need a driver and someone to make the last feet of delivery from the truck to the doorstep. These are great for the climate but the real disruption will be trucks with FSD and a robot like the Boston Dynamics dog to deliver...

    THIS APPLE CAR SHOWCASES A FUTURISTIC AUTOMOTIVE REVOLUTION THAT MAKES THE TESLA CYBERTRUCK LOOK OLD-SCHOOL!

    Maybe the same designer? My initial thoughts: Interesting but won't work off-road so I don't want one. Maybe for robotaxi. Also, that trunk needs full sidewalls or it's going to be useless to me. I tend to pack tight and have lots of odd shapes. Every time that trunk opens things are just...

    GM to go all EV by 2035

    Iā€™m not going to speak for climate activists. But as an example of one that is a counter example of your travel example there is Greta Thunberg. In spite of her propensity for sea sickness, she crosses oceans in sailing vessels.

    Tesla’s 20 Million EV Ambition Faces Huge Mining Challenge

    Not sure that "disruptive" would be the applicable term to an industry that really has not even been invented yet. Sure there are lots of ideas in people's heads. But mostly they are just pie in the sky ideas. The latest I heard of a drilling operation was on Mars and it failed miserably. At...
