Jordan, Kyle, and Tijmen take a deep-dive into the full week (8-ish days?) with the Rivian R1T! Testing, comparisons, reviewing, road trips, and everything in between. We answer questions from the Rivian Forum and talk about the videos accomplished and so many we still want to do in the future. Plus our final full-fledged thoughts on the R1T and what we would do to improve it, though it’s already darn near perfection.

This week, we have special guest Tom Moloughney (on his birthday!) to talk about his history with alternative fuel vehicles and early EV adoption. Tom had the original Mini-E from over a decade ago, pre-dating the i3, he has written for Green car reports, InsideEVs, and many more, and started a blog and now YouTube channel, State of Charge. He contains quite the passion to be in the industry, developing tests for home charging equipment and electric cars alike.
He has a rich history with BMW, with Active-E, Mini-E, i3, and was the official first public customer of an electric BMW in the US. Oh and did we mention he once owned a successful restaurant? A man of many talents.

Volkswagen updates the 2022 ID.4 with what it should have had from the beginning, and we drool over the Polestar Arctic Circle build! Plus much, much more!
