Stuff are not as disposable in the rest of the world. Who knows, maybe they use the battery to make a drone attack submarine.
Agree, Insurance companies run the industry.

For those on the name, Led Tasso was the alter ego of Ted Lasso, so with the Rivian and quad motors, the SUV was insanely fast with 0-60 in 3 seconds, handled well, was a great ride.

I prefer my Lightning with the comfort. Had originally ordered an R1T, but my Lightning arrived a month before the R1T, so I switched to the R1S for my wife. She loved it, but hated the charging experience coming from a Tesla. This was before the NACS became a standard. She drives a Model S now.

I had an R1S reservation but my lightning ended up being half the cost with lower insurance. To be frank, when I saw a Rivian fender bender costing $40K to fix, that freaked me out a little. I thought Tesla's were the only vehicles that with a blown light bulb were considered totaled. Of course I am exaggerating and not sure if Lightning is any better in that regard. So far I am happy with my decision.

Wow what a check-in! Dobrý den, Matous!

A Canadian Platinum living in the Czech Republic? Your truck is lovely and I noticed you tinted the forward light bar. It looks like a '24 and I have so many questions but I wish you many kilometres of happy, trouble free motoring.

One day I'll make it back to the Cathedral in the Old Town of Prague which is the absolute pinnacle for an amateur cathedral nerd like me.... and then onwards for a drink at Pivovar U Fleků.
