    Who wants a mini truck? TELO

    Ultra-compact electric truck startup TELO partners with Aptera to integrate solar tech Like Aptera, I'll believe it when deliveries begin in earnest. But it's damn cute. It even has a gear tunnel.

They said they might not be able to address the dash since it's only noticeable on rough roads and hot...

    GW R1T featured on SHIFTPOD's home page

    https://shiftpod.com/ Now I feel compelled to get one. Who has hands-on experience with one of their tents? Have been considering the mini pod or a Heimplanet inflatable. Also, who here is affiliated with SHIFTPOD?

    Maybe most compelling argument for EVs I have seen to-date, as a petrolhead

    Not specific to Rivians, but many of the things discussed in the video is relevant. And as owners, we know our 7k+ pound R1s can deliver on joy of driving. Enjoy another excellent video from Camissa and Pobst.

    Soft sided front row cooler that fit: REI Pack-Away 24

    Clearly not tailor-fit, but it fits. And if you wait for one of their usual sales, you could get it for about $28 pre tax. Tip: Use thin freezer packs and don't fill it with your food & drinks until you've got the cooler and freezer packs in the center cubby. You want to be able to squish it...
