    This guy in the UK is sort of famous for his ranting on the internet about everything that crosses his mind.
    And he swears a lot while doing it.

    A few weeks ago he was ranting in criticism of Jeremy Clarkson from TopGear about the Tesla Review.

    So he got his own recent test drive of a Tesla Roadster. It is quite funny to watch.
    He also gives a great explanation (while driving) of why hydrogen is a waste of energy and it makes more sense to just go electric.

    Thanks for that!!!

    Here's another Llewetube rant, this one against hydrogen fuel cell cars. This guy uses the F word a lot, so be forewarned, but if you can handle that, this is a marvelous rant on electricity and hydrogen and the greed of oil companies.

    Actually Robert owns a Prius and has been promised a ride in my PHEV once it's finished. He seems a very down-to earth chap from his online rants, although I've never met him. He's an actor/entertainer/vlogger and was one of the actors who starred in RedDwarf, a popular UK sci-fi from the 90s. He's also done a few shows which are now found on the discovery channel, such as scrap-heap challenge, how do they do it? and other such fun items...

    rofl,
    in that camera in the back part, I thought it was going to jump to hyperspace or something in a star-wars streaking of stars fashion.
