Notes

Toyota are apparently finally deciding to get semi serious about EV's.... in late 2022, after many years and many millions of dollars fighting against EV's and action on climate change.
Because of the disgusting way Toyota have behaved, and I believe will still behave, I will never buy another Toyota ever again, and I hope no one else gives Toyota money to fight against emissions standards etc. either.

If you've read this far... you are crazy! But thank-you for being crazy and watching these video's (and everyone else's video's on EV's).

Hope you think the sound is better. I bought some Rode Wireless Go II's... much clearer I think.
