    Robocalls from Nationwide regarding renewal

    I am up for renewal in July (already?!) and lately I keep getting a robocall claiming to be Nationewide and asking me to call a renewal specialist. Anyone of you on Nationwide experienced this? Scam or just aggressive sales pitch to try to get me to switch other policies to them? EDIT: the...

    Interesting stowaway rack patent by Ford

    https://www.thedrive.com/news/ford-patents-built-in-pickup-bed-rack-with-stowaway-rails-and-it-sure-seems-handy I can see this working on the R1T, with various accessories that could be added to it. Like a crane/winch for the full size spare. But the tonneau cover's rails and the whole tonneau...

    Perfect characterization of the "flagship" horn

    Listen to the first 10 seconds. It's the Built Right guys talking about the horn. And, as they were among first year deliveries, this would have been one with TWO factory horns. If anyone from Rivian is reading, this sort of reaction is just not something one would associate with a "flagship...

    Latest rumor on VW's Scout — Magna Steyr

    All the recent hype over the CT prompted me to remember the forgotten Scout brand. It feels like it's been a year since they tried to generate some media hype? only to fall silent since? Electrek wrote just 2 days ago that VW may be tapping Magna Steyr on development. Magna Steyr builds the...

    Küat IBEX rack. Anyone in Springfield, MO area?

    Over the weekend I got served an IG ad for the Küat IBEX rack. I think, aesthetically, this bed rack would be great for the R1T. Price for the shortbed Gladiator seem reasonable too ($1500). Does anyone here live near their HQ and could work with them on a R1T version?

    20' coiled hose to replace factory air hose

    11/27 UPDATE: Out of burning curiosity, I bought a 25' coiled hose to try and it fits perfectly. This is probably THE way to go. Like the shorter one, you will need to also buy a female 1/4 NPT Milton M style QD. Original post: Now that overnight temps are lower—causing tire pressure to...
