| 0:00.0 | Welcome to this episode of the fully charged show podcast and we're doing a bit of a podcast |
| 0:13.6 | take over today. I'm here with Ricky Roy. I'm good, thanks. Our California car |
| 0:19.6 | respondent. Yes, live at the fully charged show. And what are we sitting in? This is a very |
| 0:24.4 | special car. First time I think for you. First time I've sat in it yet. |
| 0:27.6 | Caribbean R1T. And this is imported, I think, from the US. You're on the wrong |
| 0:32.4 | wrong side of the world. No, this is, yeah, this is the wrong side of the world, yeah. |
| 0:36.8 | But it's quite a special thing. This is more common in California, maybe not in the entire US, |

| 1:32.7 | And there's one out here with that look. It's such a pretty thing. And I think that will be |
| 1:37.8 | one of the few vans in the US that'll sell well. So that's been cool. Right in front of us. |
