These shots were taken pausing just long enough to capture the storm clouds moving in on what was supposed to be an extended ride around the countryside on a very warm, sunny afternoon, but ended up being a quick "around the block and back". The clouds were white and puffy and there was...

@RabH You are, in one word, amazing. Your rides, your photos, your storylines. As always, thank you for sharing.

Just to try it out. See how it feels, how it works, how well it fits my petite frame. To get to know where the controls are, etc. My truck probably won't be ready for delivery until (maybe) October, if I'm lucky. They haven't started making the Maxpack yet. I didn't have to wait long before...

Yup. Rivian originally planned to come out with a maximum range truck first, which is what I wanted. That's what I preordered. Then their plans changed to start their production with a medium range truck, and the "Maxpack" was shoved to the back of the line. I got to watch all the lesser range...

In two weeks I'll be going to a "First Drive" with Rivian. After 4 years I'm finally going to get behind the wheel of this truck. About time.

I've been seeing them at the Level 3 charging stations. Great place to meet and chat with the owners. Even watched one arrive once and saw it "kneel" for the short stature female owner to alight. Thus far all I've spoken to love their Rivians. Same goes for the Ford Lightening owners I've met...

That was my concern, too, albeit not the biggest (which was range anxiety)....until the day 2 years ago when a windstorm took out the local Grid for 3 days. Not an extensive amount of time, but it was the first time I had really worried how to recharge my car. After a certain amount of panic...

Article on J.B Straubel, former CTO of Tesla, about his new venture in battery recycling. https://www.thecooldown.com/green-business/jb-straubel-tesla-evs-cto-battery-recycling/ Technology Review article on battery recycling...

Religions are ideology. Electric vehicles are fact. The former you can't see, touch, or smell (well, maybe that's debatable because a lot may say religions as a whole do stink. On the other hand, many laud the emotional benefits while completely ignoring any whiff of the olfactory) because they...

I really should have added "/s" to the conclusion of my post, shouldn't I. 🙊

You never want to leave a red car outside. Birds are attracted to the color (reminds them of food - berries, apples, lollipops, etc) and they will mark it as their own territory and lay waste to the paint with their white runny poop, as well as smudge the windows by fighting their own reflection...

Sorry, but that article not only misses on a major level, but it's very slanted reporting to make a non issue into "an issue". Spent time to read it to see if it had anything of value. Just found misinformation, outright lies, and inflated data to make nothing look like something. Click bait...

We purchased a Thule T2 Classic dual bike rack with a 2" truck receiver. Carries my low step Gazelle Ultimate C380+ beautifully. Solid, sturdy, no wiggles. I use my plastic mounting block (for mounting horses) to stand on to expend the least amount of effort into lifting the bike high enough to...

Level 3 super charging stations are available all along the Pennsylvania Turnpike, and along I95 in Maryland at their rest stop plazas. But not really elsewhere until the draconian "laws" against EV charging at all interstate rest stops has been dealt a death blow by legislators once they...

At the moment EV charging industries are planting charging facilities next to restaurants, malls, stores, grocery, fast food places, etc. that already incude restrooms and warm places to go sit and relax. Why build an overhead when your customers can stay happily tucked in their cars while...

I have noticed our Mid-Atlantic area has superchargers concentrated in the urban areas and along the major interstate toll roads at the service stations. Nice that I'll be able to use them (if they have the caps on them for CCS) for my new electric car which is CCS compliant. The problem is in...

And if we aren't able to cover the big miles...at least we have your fabulous pics and your great writeups so we can live vicariously through your adventures. I never, ever tire of seeing your beautiful open countryside.♥️

@Stefan Mikes - what a wonderful tour of your capital. The pictures were stunning and the views memorable. Thank you so much for sharing your ride here with us.😊

Not by a long shot.😎

The Ultimate C380+ (28mph assist). Mid step. Sweet bike that is a gorgeous ride with tons of power, and gears.
