Honestly, pictures don’t do this minivan justice. It’s much better looking that I thought it would be. My wife had originally hated the Buzz due to it not having round headlamps but when she saw it in person she kinda shrieked with excitement. It’s a damn good looking EV..
On the downside...
I’m in Japan this month and checking out a shop in Omori when I found this guy. ?
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.

I’m just curious if anyone else has tried this. I like that it has a solid floor for you dogs but they don’t show any dimensions. It just says it’ll fit any vehicle, which is BS. If it fits in my Rivian, it’s...
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 son’s 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 Musk’s $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 Musk’s 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? ?
Colorado 4x4 Rescue and Recovery is a volunteer organization that has saved lives but we need to realize our limitations and not put these fellas at risk.
please don’t go snow wheelin’ on your own and make sure you have recovery gear and...
This is in the UK but if you have a Tesla, you might want to double check your warranty to be safe.

Basically, after driving on wet roads, their Model Y died. Tesla claimed the battery was damaged due to water...
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. It’s rutting season so they’re out strutting their stuff...
Rivian’s new duffel bag arrived a short while ago. I took a few shots of it to give you my thoughts. It’s 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...
I did a search and didn't see anyone posting this. The tailgate pad is getting attention but Rivian also released a new duffel bag and a packing cube set. Both have Rivian branding but the duffel bag is shaped to fit in the gear tunnel. It looks like a quality product as well.
I just ordered...
Decided to take a little road trip over the Mt Evans. For those that don’t know This is a 14000+ ft mountain in Colorado, near Idaho Springs. The road to the top is the highest paved road in North America.
It’s a really nice way to beat the heat. It was only 59F at the top. :)
BTW, if you ever...
We've all seen the FUD about EV battery recycling, or the lack there of. Jerry Rig Everything has a great explainer on how our batteries are being recycled.
Today I got a bit fed up with Nationwide. They’ve been taking way to long to get our claim settled so I can get into a new R1T. They stated it’s taking a long time to get the assessment done so they can determine the final payout.
For those that don’t know. Our truck was totaled after an...
