Amazon

Recently Amazon made an SEC filing that disclosed its ownership stake in the electric vehicle maker called Rivian. Rivian has been seen as a serious contender to the electric vehicle crown that Tesla currently wears. Rivian has two electric vehicles that will be sold to consumers, including the R1S SUV and R1T electric pickup.

I know I am not the only fan of the old Top Gear to hope that Clarkson and crew utterly decimate the new Top Gear when it comes to viewership. Amazon has announced that the first recording of their new show, The Grand Tour will happen in Johannesburg, South Africa and you can win tickets to the taping.

Former Top Gear hosts Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond, and James May have a new show coming to Amazon later this year. You would have to be living under a rock to not know that at this point.

We already know that Amazon has landed Top Gear’s Clarkson, Hammond, and May for a car show that will make the BBC weep when it kicks off. So far we don’t know a lot about the new show.

I was always an avid viewer of Top Gear as much to see what Clarkson, Hammond, and May would be up to as to check out the cars they were flogging. I was surprised when the BBC slit its own throat by firing Clarkson, sending his two pals and co-hosts with him in a show of solidarity.

I love Amazon Prime, and I make it my goal each year to ensure that Amazon loses money on me when it comes to shipping. This year I stuck them with the shipping charge for a 400-pound wood lathe that was on Prime.
