Welcome to this week’s casual kōrero thread!
This post will be pinned in this community so you can always find it, and will stay for about a week until replaced by the next one.
It’s for talking about anything that might not justify a full post. For example:
- Something interesting that happened to you
- Something humourous that happened to you
- Something frustrating that happened to you
- A quick question
- A request for recommendations
- Pictures of your pet
- A picture of a cloud that kind of looks like an elephant
- Anything else, there are no rules (except the rule)
So how’s it going?
I completely agree that the RUC and possibly even the Rego system is antiquated. Why do we still need little pieces of paper on our windscreen?
But I’m a little confused by what you mean? The RUC label has the ending KM’s on it. You just buy more before or when you hit that amount of mileage.
Oh shit does it? I’m dumb haha! The car is out at the moment but I will check when it gets home. Thanks for the tip!
Haha glad I could help 😆

If you scroll down to the example label, it’s the “max dist recorder”
Well now I don’t feel so dumb because that’s not at all obvious. I feel like this should have been part of the messaging when RUC came in for EVs!
Maybe it was and I wasn’t paying attention.
I actually don’t remember what was in the messaging either. It just made sense to me because the numbers lined up with what was shown when I bought it online.
I didn’t even check. Just paid for some KMs, stuck the thing on the car, and promptly forgot about it until recently.
