Matt Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 1 hour ago, Doorider said: Throttle mapping doesn't explain the fact it struggles to tow my boat over 65mph and gets 7mpg doing it. It's just a 24' pontoon. My ram I had before it pulled it much easier and got about 10-11 mpg Maybe yours is a dud. Mine pulls my Malibu up and over a mountain pass at 60 mph and does 75-80 on the expressway for 20 miles each way. I get 13.5 MPG doing that. Did it this morning. Never any issues getting off the line either. I'm usually just as fast from a red as the unloaded vehicles around me. I would like it to hold 8th gear a bit better at 80 mph on slight uphills but that's asking quite a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a Larson 21" before the toon and it to was very easy to pull. Pontoon is like pulling a parachute down the highway. It sits up very high on the trailer I have Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tinker Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 Again, wtf does being a what you describe as a Climate Denier have to do with owning a Tesla ? As far as fleet service, 240V charge stations drawing 48 amps and a dismal range with a load or pulling a trailer are massive drawbacks. You'd have to have a support vehicle with a generator.That and it's so fn ugly Elon has to be sitting back laughing rolling a Fattie sayin it doesn't matter what it looks like, let the aluminum siding guy make the body panels.

It looks like it does because they cannot stamp the steel it's made from. Imagine having a vehicle with a body so strong it couldnt be dented....

Matt Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 So the look is kinda sorta growing on me a little, but it'll require so many changes before production, it's tough to say on that. I do think a 500 mile unloaded range best case isn't bad if the supercharging isn't dog slow. One thing I do wonder about though. Pretty much every supercharger I've seen is a single vehicle stall. If you're towing a trailer any distance, does that mean you need to unhook your trailer to use Tesla's superchargers? Second idea... can I put a big honking battery, maybe something like a Tesla Powerwall in my enclosed sled trailer and boost range? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea exactly And when it turns out to be an even bigger turd than it already is , those orders will start getting canceled. People who are ordering these trucks aren't going to use them as a truck. Isn't going to impact F Series , Ram or GM truck sales. Poor dumb fuck Barb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poor dumb fuck Barb Aren't gong to use it as a truck Sure dumb dumb. up to 3,500lb payload and 14,000lb towing. up to 500 miles on a charge How many miles does a commercial pick up in town drive per day?

EV with those specs certainly would replace the average 1/2 ton work truck pretty well. very few need any more range than thats going to give.
