Tesla trucks in the South

Just a matter of time.

Might take a little longer than 30 seconds though.

Looks like it needs a pedestal mounted 30 cal.

We prefer the 50 cal's.

[PWC]

I can get behind that.

as ugly as it ever was

It needs reversed rims and "Carolina Squat".

Fill the back end with enough ice and beer. Easy fix!

I recall the early 60’s when guys were jacking up the front ends to get that “launch angle” look.
Just like on the magazine covers in the drug store.
I don’t remember the term for it though.

Yeah it's ugly. Maybe something we will get use to later on? Not unless other vehicles start looking similar I think.

It's fast though.

0 to 60 in 2.6 seconds. Top speed is governed at 131mph.

AWD. Price $82k--$102k so not much more than other "equipped" trucks. 5 passenger. Estimated average range 320-325mi.

Comes with 600hp 2 motor or 834hp 3 motor versions.

My prius gets 550 per fillup.

Yea, yeah, I know. I had a Volvo 960 and all my Okie family had Crown Vics and Chevys. And I got grief from them for buying foreign. Told them my Volvo would stillbe on the road after their's were in the junk yard. I was right, one of the Crown Vics was replaced with a Jaguar, rest were traded off for something else.

Back when, I put coil spring spacers in the front to 'raise' it. Looked cool but was very rough ride. Took'em out pronto!

I went the opposite way . . .
Put 2” lowering blocks in the rear end on my ‘42 Merc convertible!

I've driven pickups that squatted in the rear due to carrying heavy loads. It's a little hard to drive when the hood obstructs your vision especially when pulling up behind someone in traffic.

Not only that Allen, put enough weight in the back and you loose the ability to steer the vehicle. I might also add, there is no accounting for taste these days on appearance. The design of this vehicle appears that it came out of a comic book. But......is this progress or fantasy becoming real? Just one of my many mind wanderings these days.

Used to have an Olds Toronado, a super heavy car. I had to have it towed one day. I later spoke to the wrecker driver who worked for the local Oldsmobile dealer. He said the car was so heavy that he had to drive slow because the front wheels on his wrecker kept bobbing off the pavement and even when they were touching he barely had control.

Remember the VW Rabbit pickup ? Super backwards. It was front wheel drive so the more weight you carried the less traction you had. This would have been the case too if pulling a boat up a boat ramp if the truck had enough power to pull a boat in the first place.
