A road trip ....through the new factory location:
They fast forward through the tree-shaded houses in The Whiteacker but they hit all the location AMP, RAMP, R&D, Rental and the office where he rides Platform 2.
At ?t=80 they're at R&D to look at the half-doors.

Well, I wish them well, but more than that I wish an FUV for freebeard.

That would be a dream come true, but Platform 2 is in a more feasible price range. The FUV does look safer than Platform 2 which is about the same as my bicycle.
For 17 dollars I could rent one for an hour and take enough pictures for photogrammetry. Then I could update this model.

The problem isn't the rental fee, it's getting myself across town. My focus right now is getting a canopy up before the rains come back.
My DSL service is intermittent, and the service call is scheduled a week and a half out. I may be incommunicado.

I'd like to collaborate on this sometime in the near future, say mid Octoberish. Would like to take one out on an "open" course.

There is a 30% tax credit for 3 wheeled EVs in the Build Back Better proposal. Up to $7500. That would take the current $18,000 or so FUV down to $13,000.

This requires prior planning. I'm now out of debt and saving toward renewing the tags on two cars. I have discretionary funds about half of any month.

Congrats on being in the black.
Don't know about Eugene, but there's no laws in the Salem area due to DMV being backlogged minimum 2 months. I'm not renewing tags if these clowns aren't going to do the jobs they are paid to do, and it's nice knowing the police are onboard.
Any Eugene adventures by me are best completed before April.

Toward the end of 2019, I renewed my driver's license and they offered to mail it. By the time they got one into my hands they may or may not have cast two other copies to the winds. It remains uncertain.
I drove the SUPERBeetle on expired tags until I got the Metro XFi.
