EV's & Tundra's

but cows are vegan

therefore all leather is vegan



never mind

 

I'm sure a lot of CT's will be sold and no doubt many like it's looks. As far as those softening opinion on looks, hard sell. We've known for quite some time what it looks like. A lot of folks out there are still shaking their heads, hi tech aside. To many, it looks simply like a Disney E ride experience. One and done. Fun as all get out but won't actually want to own one. As mentioned time will tell. I'm not too optimistic.

 

Oh, I don't think it will ever achieve the mass acceptance that the 4Runner and Tacoma have. Just that it will soften once there are some out in the real world. I still think the design language would have been better on a roadster/performance car than a truck, and the styling of the model x should have been truckified for the CT.

 

This is the start of the Corvettism/Ferrari-ism dudes rolling into car shows with their "gear" on.

 

Please just keep them off the interstates in Wyoming. We have cold temps, high winds, and lots of hills. I don't need them running out of juice and blocking up the main arteries for getting in/out of the state.

 

It's that they'll be told it has 600+ miles of range and not told that that estimate is under very controlled conditions. Flat ground. No wind. Optimal temps. Not exceeding 60-65 MPH. You add hills, wind, cold, and 75-80 MPH speed limits and that's going to plummet the range.

 

Don't worry, it's a Tesla.
All those variables will constantly adjust the range and it'll tell the driver what Megachargers it can make it to.

Don't get me wrong, I still think it's silly to haul freight with electric 18 wheelers.

 

Worked at a truck stop for a few years and have had my CDL for several. You're making some bold claims regarding intelligence, literacy, an observational skills regarding drivers. Inept, obtuse, stupid, and entitled are the defaults. Getting outside those I would not call the norm.

 

You're not wrong but you have to be a certified jack wagon to ignore Tesla yelling at you because you won't make your destination on the current state of charge.

 

See previous statement of experience.

 

Let em burn then!
I'll wave with a smile on my face if I ever see one waiting for a tow truck.

 

You wish. I'm pure, bitch.

 

When are they going to start doing the induction charging under the highways? Did Tesla scrap that with the sedans?

 

IDK, just like anything else with EV, IMO, there is a place where they work. Long haul, no. Local delivery, sure.

We have a school district that went to ALL EV buses, in rural IL. That to me was a bone head move. Estimated range of 160 miles unloaded. Maybe in an urban or city environment, but not out in the middle of nowhere.

Them and Frito Lays, but they are the same company.

 

I would not want that at all. Last thing somebody needs is a fraudster hunting for a paycheck thinking they can snag one from a big name auto company.
