News; Big Electric Order

If like me you are a technology nerd you’ll be happy to see today’s news that DFDS have ordered 100 electric Volvos. It’ll be great to finally have a good number of them out in the wild answering questions about them, their suitability etc and answer the question of what the future holds. Will it be hydrogen or electric, or a mix. I think it’ll be a mix at first but one will come out on top eventually. I hear all the complaints about range, purchase cost, weight etc but the more that go on the road the more these will improve. We are at the very start of this, technology is moving incredibly fast and problems being solved all the time. Looking forward to first drive in one.

I’m really proud of my bonkers career, it’s been absolutely amazing! But, my driving career didn’t start on the road, it started on a landfill, in a Moxy! For pretty my whole childhood Dad was a mechanic who drove on the side. I used to spend lots of time with him, going away in lorries or spending the weekend with him in the workshop. One job he had was for a local plant hire company and this was one of the best as back in those days when no one really cared much about H&S, I got to drive and play with machines in the yard. It got to point where I could lift engines and axles etc with pinpoint precision with the mini digger, helping Pops. Can’t dig a hole to save my life tho! One day one of the bosses saw me gently lifting the engine back into a Mox...
