How did you fix the torque issue with semi trucks? My understanding is that is why we cannot get across the country with semi trucks not to mention the charging issue. I'm very curious. :)

Excellent video. We are all striving for financial freedom and a better way of life. It is not difficult to achieve this with wise investing, economical lifestyle, and careful budgeting. I'm pleased I learnt early on to work hard for financial independence.

4:37 I thought they already do tunneling and reinforcing at the same time. The tunneling is going and there is a conveyer behind it bringing in preformed concrete in and its put in place. I thought it was a part of the UK Chunnel or maybe it was the one that went under the swiss alps.

It's 8.36am IST ITS HOLI festival. I am listening to Elon on Ted Talks with Chris Anderson and its wonderful Raon pouring in!!. The enigmatic fragrance of wet ground and a delighted environment. It has never rained in March in Mumbai. The magic of truth even the heavens certify. The clouds are thundering and there was some mild lightening too a short while back. It's a beautiful day!!
