Iām in Japan this month and checking out a shop in Omori when I found this guy. š
A fella asked if I was going to buy it. I told him I already had three. Two of these matchbox models and a big on in the garage. He liked the pictures I showed. Nice time.
Rivian could really use some good news and more revenue. The charger ratings on the software update is nice but investors want to hear about revenue. Where on Earth are the subscriptions? All the way back in December, Rivian was supposed to start charging customers for the ATT LTE connection...
I saw this advertised on Facebook today.

Iām just curious if anyone else has tried this. I like that it has a solid floor for you dogs but they donāt show any dimensions. It just says itāll fit any vehicle, which is BS. If it fits in my Rivian, itās...
In Conserve Mode he achieved 1.85mi/kWh compared to 2.09mi/kWh
He had a Thule roof rack and an iKamper tent on the back when he tested with both tires. So the Pirelli still wins on efficiency. Of course the Falkens are very much more capable off road and they show to be a lot more durable...
Yesterday I was out for my sonās birthday. Drove all over the place and found my truck at 19% SoC with a decent distance left to drive home. Fortunately there was a relatively new Tesla Supercharger, at nearby Northglenn, CO, with a Magic Dock. So I set it on my nav to begin preconditioning and...
(Bloomberg) -- Elon Muskās $55 billion pay package at Tesla Inc. was struck down by a Delaware judge after a shareholder challenged it as excessive, a ruling that would take a giant bite out of Muskās wealth and put the fate of his companies in question.
That is if the ruling survives a likely...
My powered tonneau was replaced last Wednesday. The next day, I noticed a very significant rattle coming from the back of the truck. After some quick checking I found that the rattle only occurs when the tonneau is in the closed position. If I completely open it up, there is no rattle at all...
OK my Colorado peeps, which one of you was it? š¤Ŗ

This is in the UK but if you have a Tesla, you might want to double check your warranty to be safe.

Last Saturday was a new moon and I had some new lenses I wanted to test out. So we hopped in the truck and drove up to RMNP for some astro photography. Before heading to the top of Trail Ridge rd, I got some great shots of bull Elk. Itās rutting season so theyāre out strutting their stuff...
Rivianās new duffel bag arrived a short while ago. I took a few shots of it to give you my thoughts. Itās a pretty good sized duffel with plenty of room for coats, shoes, etc. Besides the main compartment, has two zipped end pockets, two interior mesh pockets, and a interior zipped pocket along...
Today I got a bit fed up with Nationwide. Theyāve been taking way to long to get our claim settled so I can get into a new R1T. They stated itās taking a long time to get the assessment done so they can determine the final payout.
For those that donāt know. Our truck was totaled after an...
IF Toyota can successfully bring this to market it definitely close the use case gap that justifies ICE based vehicles. IMO, 10 minutes for charging is more important than the range. If we can get 300+ miles of range in 10 minutes or less, itās game over for ICE. Only diehards and collectors...

Today I had the most expensive trip to IKEA without buying a damn thing.
It was wet and rainy and the guy behind me wasn't quick on the stop. He got a face full of air bag and distroyed his otherwise lovely X-Terra that he said he paid off just a couple of months ago.
I was well behind the...
