As will surprise no one, my new coda (this my third coda) is already broken

EV1 VIN 212 gang

I don’t think project cars get cooler than this

IDK who needs to hear this, but if the government stopped subsidizing gas cars like they did electric cars, the average cost per gallon of gas would be $15-$20. The argument of “EVs are too expensive” only holds because of the insane subsidies ICE vehicles get from the government.

Tesla is completely unable to compete with the competition. The BASE model 3 (which lacks power adjusted mirrors!?) is $38k. The new TOP TRIM Chevy Bolt (which has power adjust mirrors) is $32k

Im working on a video about the Prius (I promise it’s interesting!) but it’s important for everyone to know: the OFFICIAL plural for Prius is Prii.

If you prefer Fusion360 over SolidWorks, we can’t be friends. It’s not just a difference of softwares, it’s a difference of morals.

The increasingly disturbing news is less disturbing to me than those who are not disturbed.

The harsh crackdown on anyone who doesn't properly mourn Charlie Kirk and pretend he was a good guy is polarizing me more and more in the opposite direction. He was a vile, hateful little man who wanted people like me lynched. The more you scream at me for pointing that out, the more I'll say it.

@mattparlmer.bsky.social: "Absolutely gargantuan fuckup, Hyundai now saying that spinup of that battery plant will not restart until 2026 at the absolute earliest"

i have empathy. i have it for my trans friends, whom kirk wanted dead. i have it for my trans loved ones, whom i may never have known if he had gotten his way. i have it for my community who will have to survive through the effects of the shit that man said during his life. my priority is correct.

I'm genuinely confused at so much of my feed being filled with "Don't celebrate Charlie Kirk being shot **because** this gives Trump the go ahead to violently crush opposition." Did you mean to add "faster" to the end of that sentence? Like, he wasn't waiting for an impetus. It's happening already

Do not be bullied, cowed, or shamed by bad-faith right-wing actors and MAGA that are blaming "liberals" and everyone who isn't MAGA for Charlie Kirk. Call them out for their hypocrisy. Go on offense. They are fine with political violence and mass shootings when it's against the rest of us.

I spent way too much effort on this video. Please watch it, I’m begging you! youtu.be/ZbMZ02_5CtE?...

Bought this 1:10 scale EV1 model from an ex-EV1 engineer. Pretty neat!

The disappearance of the EV tax credit due to the BBB will absolutely hurt US manufacturing. Why would companies invest millions to move battery manufacturing to the US if it’s cheaper for them to just pay the tariffs on imports? Plus it gives China even more time to run laps around us! Yippie!

So glad we all get to experience the Most Ironic Independence Day In American History.

The RAV4 EV went into turtle mode on the way home today but then it fixed itself. I’m a gambling man so I’m gonna ignore that and keep driving it like nothing happened.

A friend lent me this lithium-converted 2002 RAV4 EV to daily drive for the summer!

Humanity requires empathy. ICE agents are not human.

Truck!

I was on a podcast. Listen to it or I’ll beat you with a metal pole audioboom.com/posts/872001...

Slate having Bezos as an investor has already done damage to the brand. I don’t blame Slate for taking the money, but people don’t want to buy billionaremobiles, especially ones as polarizing as Bezos. It’s ironic the cheap car brand is linked to the guy who makes a cheap car necessary

I think Slate undeniably puts a lot of pressure on Telo, but I think the Telo has more market appeal for what it is. The Telo is utilitarian, while the Slate is just cheap. A used Chevy Bolt has better utility than the Slate, but at half the price.

While the Slate EV seems like a cool idea, if the federal tax credit goes away, which is likely, the Slate becomes a $27k pickup truck that doesn’t have a radio… for $5k more you could have a Equinox EV that does have a radio and… ya know… double the range

I started making a video on the spira but never finished so here’s some random clips: youtu.be/zIS-XgWm_mQ?...

So close to having this stupid thing running!

I feel like my hobbies cause me more stress than comfort

Hey all! I created this account to share updates on my comic book passion project: Resonant Frequencies! I plan on posting regular updates and information about the book as I work with Brooke Burnett to get it made! To start off, here’s the title page! More info to come soon, love you! ❤️ -DK

Nothing ruins my mood quite like someone passing off ai art as real art

Some days I deeply regret leaving the film industry to become an electric vehicle engineer. There was a lot less math involved with film.

I made fun of French people ONE TIME in one of my videos posted almost 2 years ago, and I still get angry comments about it. In my defense, I’m not sorry at all and will make fun of French people again in the future.

Pointless rant about Tesla FSD: I recently heard someone who will remain unnamed claim that once Tesla decides to license out FSD to other manufacturers, it will be game over. My guy, no manufacturers would even touch FSD. It is by far the most publicly hated driver assistant (1/-)

Cars 👏 should 👏 be 👏 friend 👏 shaped 👏

While I understand vandalizing Teslas, I think it’s important to remember that people who are in older model years likely bought the cars with the best of intentions before we knew how fucked Elon is, and it’s not fair to punish them. Cybertruck and new Model 3s and Ys are 100% fair game tho.

Still making progress on my comic book! Thought I’d share some prop art for the main weapon in the series, the Frequency Gun! I promise it makes sense in context. Hopefully.

I’m really excited to receive my 540 piece Deutsch connector set in the mail tomorrow. That’s a weird thing to be excited about, right? But just think of all the quality connection opportunities!

Out with the old…

In response to @itskyleconner.bsky.social spreading of misinformation on X I thought I would share some things about Telo, as someone who has worked for the company. First I want to say that Telo has absolutely not paid for boosting of media on the car, and claiming this is just poor journalism 1/-

I love being in bird communities because people always ask the question “why is my bird acting weird, is there something wrong with them?” And 99.99% of the time, the bird is just horny

Had an incredible time at the @telotrucks.bsky.social unveiling! This truck is truly an amazing piece of engineering, that I am so grateful to have been a part of (and hopefully will continue to be a part of). I will be filming a full YouTube video with it in the future.

Telo Truck.

Today’s the day…

seems many politicians are trying to defend trans rights while also giving up rhetorical ground on our existence and the science behind it. cannot see or understand how that is tenable

Recently I changed computers.The old one was filled with stickers from my time in the US and some old podcasts. The new one, amma put some about my hobbies, starting with cars. Should I go contemporary like the computer, or retro fantastic to contrast it? (car stickers by @deccyweccy.bsky.social)
