This series of "Munro Live" videos from inside the Tesla Truck plant show that Musk's team is on another planet.... This one and Munro's "panel discussion" are a bit of time to watch. But holy smoke worth it.

This one vvv talks about the Ethernet/Token Ring network and how they 'wired' the cyber truck. Incredible advance over the CanBus.



Cheers,

Have you seen how Elon handled it in the Tesla Truck? Basically used a LAN and took something between 70 and 100 pounds of copper out of the truck... Brilliant.

BTW, putting a new wiring harness in my 1976 CJ-7.

Here's the whole thing....

Now, where is that computer... Not sure how it could possibly run without more computing power than the entire Space Program prior to 1977... Must be in here somehow or it won't start!

I think I remember the guys who taught the w221 class that all of the CAN systems saved about 150lbs.

I like the idea of some old something-or-other that has a few feet of wiring. But I also like a/c and heated seats…

Token Ring network

Token ring? Really? Seems a step sideways from CAN bus.

The way the did the LAN on tesla puts a single ring of wire around the truck. Then connects things with 6 - 10" shunts. Everything runs around the main wire instead of having each device plugged into its own fuse port or central computer.

As for the CJ... I like heated seats, too. But not at the cost of my car not starting because some PLA dink in a white building in Bejing decides he doesn't want it to because I called him a Zipperhead on Snipers Hide.

Watch the video above... at about the 15 minute mark they get into the network... It's a hybrid of sorts.

There’s a sweet spot of cars that have all the bells and whistles and can be modified in a bunch of ways but still old enough that they can’t be controlled super easily.

Remember to give the flight attendants your undivided attention during their cabin demo. In an emergency, the ones who need to know that information during an emergency are the ones who probably weren't paying attention.

Not far at all from the truth.

I get it, but networking like this saves a bunch of weight and actually makes these fancy schmancy cars less complex. It is something new and sometimes frustrating to learn though

Go fuck yourself…..










That is all.

Well, no, not less complex than some old farm truck. But less complex than if all of the control units had to have their own dedicated inputs/outputs. With signals being networked like they are, several control units can use the signal from one sensor(engine temperature for example).

Watched it.

EtherLoop, ethernet loop ... no time slicing or lack of redundancy like token ring

EtherLoop has been around since the 90s, better in many ways than CAN bus or token ring functionally ... not sure of the cost differences parts + manufacturing ... added complexity over CAN bus to that's got to cost something

Didn't you mean DC instead of PC?

Somehow that sounded like the beginning of an Adrian Cronhour bit.

I took my daughter out to lunch a few days ago. I asked her which vehicle she would like to go in and she picked the 89 suburban. A few miles down the road she asked me why don't they make seats like this anymore? Like what? I asked. "Big and cushy like a couch".

Looking at the prices of brand spanking new cars and trucks, and then looking at the prices of very good looking older trucks and cars.....and knowing what "they" are doing to the new cars.......I will never buy another new vehicle of any kind.

Ladies and gentlemen, we are expecting to have a full flight. Please stow smaller items, such as purses and handbags underneath the seat in front of you and utilize the overhead bin space for larger carryon items.

Did anyone ever tell Bearclaw that grizzly bears hybernate in the winter and going up higher where winter stays longer wasn't going to improve his chances of finding any?
