E-Uber, Getting dirty, Lost my legs

by Duf Anything and Everything

Friday evening I offered to take some friends of mine over to Miami to attend a concert. I once again heavily utilized Tesla FSD to make what could have been a white knuckle driving experience much more pleasant. Concert parking is not cheap nowadays, $60 for the privilege is the going rate. I just hung mostly in my car for the duration although a few times I walked around outside where I could hear the music pretty clearly. The people watching opportunities were top tier. FSD was again a big help on the return trip as it does not get drowsy as I do when driving at 1AM.

Saturday I did something I had not done in a very long time, change the oil in my Tacoma. I change the oil in the truck consistently every 5000 miles. The thing is nowadays it takes a long time for me to accumulate 5000 miles on my 2016 Taco. The last time I changed the oil was February of last year. The work went fine with me wearing a bunch of oil during the process which is normal.

I also did a test run on my generator since we are now getting back into hurricane season. There is nothing worse than needing a generator and having it be dead. I was pretty busy all Saturday afternoon just tending to stuff that needed to get done. I did some more testing on my new X1C and again ran into issues doing a multi-color print. I am going to start throwing some spare parts at the problem. The parts were included with the printer so I may as well give it a go.

My significant event on Sunday was doing a range test on my new Nosfet Aero. I heard others mention getting around 25 miles of range so I expected something in that ballpark. It was very warm Sunday afternoon but I sweated through a 32 mile ride. The wheel exceeded my expectations significantly. It’s been a long time since I have done a ride of that duration/length and my body felt it. I woke up with very sore calves the following day. It was a great ride that took me all over my local stomping area.

I stayed up late editing the footage from the day before passing out somewhere around midnight.
