For you special I find article https://cdllife.com/2022/tesla-semis-cab-design-makes-it-a-completely-stupid-vehicle-trucker-says/

It was print rather than video  but I  saw an excellent review of the Tesla Semi compared to a Volvo electric truck by a Polish trucker last year. He basically ripped the Tesla as an ergonomic disaster  where the Volvo was great in everyday service 

I’m slightly surprised it wasn’t a German tourist. Unprepared Germans are almost a meme. I always watch out for both hyper and hypothermia because the high desert can have 100° air temperatures and 50° water temperatures plus it gets cold at night. Fortunately we rarely see more than 100° or less than 25° but I'm

I like the idea of a hot rod Cressida but not with rust perforations ND

To err is human, to really screw things up requires a human.

The problem is a lot of departments roll the ambulance and a fire engine,  which seems excessive. If they need extra hands a Ford Maverick should be enough and double as vehicle for inspectors during the day

I like when cars have period accessories, it makes them feel lived in. The coffee maker idea lived on in the otherwise forgettable Fiat 500X which had an optional espresso maker in one of the cup holders.

Talk about putting the steal in stealership. The worst of it is,this is perfectly legal.  

If wank panzers are more expensive now does this mean fewer on the road? Yes, this would be a positive development.  

I don’t even think it’s an OG kit, just pure hombrew and dubious at that. I’ve seen a factory built one up close and in addition to aluminum paneling it has real doors for both front seats and a well thought out interior  ND

Yeach they are like self propelled barracks barges

There was a long article on the wrongness of eyes in windshields. On the font panel spaced apart looks best. You can claim it's part of the latest FSD upgrade

I thought Tesla had canceled the robotaxi. Not that is really matters since Tesla only has SAE level 2 in their “Partial Self Driving” software and a true robotaxi needs at least level 3 and probably level 4 so it’s vaporware for the foreseeable future.

Man made horrors beyond our imagining.  

I'm surprised urban fire departments don't have some low profile equipment for garages and tunnels.  An underground mining truck would be a good base for something 2 meters tall with enough tank capacity.  

What ”wokeness" has H-D committed? All I've seen is middle of the road corporate behavior which includes paying lip service to pride month. Personally I don't care because I  don't like Harley Davidsons anyway. 

Lawsuits incoming if Toyota doesn't get their act together.  

Mostly Detroit stuff, an early 90s Ford Tempo rental had a bar in the seat that caused shoulder lain, fortunately I could rent a Probe for the same price. My wife’s 88 Cavalier was pretty bad compared to my 84 Jetta.

On the bright side IR reflective paint is still lighter and simpler than a second roof panel like the old Land Rover tropical roof system.
