EV Curbsiding, Landfill Reduction and Scrapping ft. Stripmeister
Back again folks!
Thanks for sticking with me if you made it through that “little” intermission.
Just bought a chest mount for more practicality! Hoping to put it to good use, should be able to show me physically jumping in the dumpsters that way.
Shoutout to Thubprint for all of his helpful tips on scrapping, the amount of tricks I’ve learned on his channel is truly a laundry list.
Thanks again for watching! Please sub and share if you care to! :)

One more thing YES the battery is liquid cooled! It’s been two months of owning and driving the SOLO. My first video was just awfully uninformative so I felt it necessary to clarify some information, I hope this helps! I don’t work for Electra Meccanica, I’m not sponsored by them. That would be sweet though if you’re an EM rep reading this, shoot me a message lol ;) if you want one for yourself...

    I never heard of this SOLO car. I heard about Velorex. About SOLO, it looks absolutely fantastic. What I don't understand is the mentality of people always going for a bigger car. Bigger car for a family, yes. But for people like me, single, no family, no ''luggage'' sort of speak, it's a perfect car. I'm not saying that bigger cars don't look good, it's just my point of view, why having such a car that consumes so much of everything? To look grandiose? To look rich? To look alpha? Mostly people live for around 60-80 years. In that period you switch a few cars. I'm 37, no car at the moment(vertigo), before that I had multiple cars and today I ask myself why, for what reason do I need a gigantic car. So what is the point of my comment, we need to change our mentality. We live in a period of absolute abundance, no natural enemies, top of the food chain. We are forgeting how brittle we are. We just take and grab everything, no matter the consequences. We are developing at a ultra fast pace, so fast that we do not see what we are doing to our only environment, Earth. We need to slow down, not to stop, but to slow down. We are like junky on cocaine going insane. I've heard many times people saying fuck it you only live once. Get the best out of it for yourself. I don't care for others. You literally can't get any more selfish by doing that. And by giving chances to these kind of people, we are losing ourselves. Thank you for the video. Great cars!

    Check out the Tesla concept for their Robotaxi car. It looks a lot like the SOLO. Not a 3 wheeler but the rear wheels are inset some to reduce drag and it is a 2 seater with side by side seating. SOLO had the right idea just not all the Tesla stuff like power, range, charging network, and self-driving technology.

      Y know I made a whole big video and lost motivation before I finished editing it, I don’t want to bore the audience, and if I can’t hold my own attention then I’m certain it would struggle to keep yours.. I still like the idea of making videos, but I don’t want to push videos out just for the sake of doing it, I wanted it to be a video I’m excited to put out and hopefully that translates into the audience being excited to watch too. :) haven’t abandoned the channel or anything just don’t want to bore myself or anybody else for that matter. Hope that makes sense, sorry for the lack of content buddy

      @@awwki I guess it depends on where you are, in London here driving in the city is impossible, it takes 2 hours to drive anywhere but 45 minutes taking the underground, so most just take public transport. So many drives for many people is things like the airport (130 mile round trip), or visiting family in a nearby city (200+ mile round trip), or a work meeting in the midlands (400 mile round trip), etc.

    This vehicle was never "enough". The Elio Motors platform as an EV would have been much more appealing. Given a top speed of 120mph and range of 310miles, NACS with Tesla SuperCharger access, and a tandem 2 seater. A/C and heater is totally a requirement! Made in mainland China?! No wonder ElectraMeccanica failed...Quality Control, Seven Sigma, caring about product success.

    I've been hyper mile conscious with my Bolt. I bought my bolt 2 amd a half weeks ago and i am still trying to get a level 2 charger at home. My outlets are not grounded so i can't level 1 charge at home (as little good as it would do anyways). There is one free level 2 charger in my area at a hotel that i have been visiting frequently and one busted level 3 charger in the town over from me so I'm white knuckling my way through it!
