    Better truck, yes. Perfect truck, no. Haven’t seen a truck yet that is perfect, every single one is a compromise in some form or another.

    The perfect truck is like the perfect woman; it doesnt exist. it's an idea. Its something to strive towards but like light speed you'l never actually hit it.

    that one has a gas motor as well. Dual mode seems useful if you're just putzing around town or commuting to work.

    BULLSHIT!

    If I understand right no microturbines or fuem cells?

    I love electric vehicles but I just can't believe this. What tech are they using? how are they revolutionising the industry. I don't understand how an online startup apparently needing lots of revenue is about to completely change the EV game and deliver 100 vehicles in 2 years?

    EVs have so much more potential than internal combustion but this just doesn't add up with current tech? Or does it? I definatley don't


    know everything:smack:

    *Edit*
    Maybe I shouldn't be so skeptical, I live in Phoenix and I wonder if they'll let me have a tour of their facility. I'm going to send them an email.

    Well if you're about to make a Tesla that can pull a 5th wheel and is apparently comparable to a raptor offroad for 45k you better keep those secrets on the DL lol
