They look a bit better in person, but I think if these companies would just do something in the grill areas it would look a lot better, it's the front that looks like shit, rest of the body lines I don't fine ugly.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

racinfarmer Posted June 26, 2022 Share Posted June 26, 2022 Saw one yesterday. They need to do something with the grill/headlight thing. It really kills the look of the rest of the truck. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They looked to be the size of a 1/2 ton when I saw a couple last week on a truck, definitely not the size of a f-250 or the size of a Tacoma Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See loads of them everyday because the plant isn’t that far from me. My GC Hemi is more capable than that box and was 30k cheaper. They can’t get many on a car carrier because they are tanks. Nice toy at $45k,laughable at $70. It’s the new look at me car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did think it was odd that there were only 3 on the semi, there were lots of empty spots left and none were on the top, they were all one the "floor" of the car hauler,..so it takes twice to 3x's as many semi's to get the EV trucks to the same volume of gassers to the dealers??..Hmmm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodtick Posted June 26, 2022 Share Posted June 26, 2022 The family had to stop and charge 5 times in 500 miles to charge. The wiz bang dropped to 90 mile per charge once it got into the mountains. Oh snap.............. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These are ment to go to Whole Foods,not work trucks. These things have a long way to go before they will compare to the big three small pick up truck segment.

How would it do plowing snow on maybe 50-75 driveways twice a day in 15* temps with lots of extra lights hooked up to it and the heater on high for about 14 hours straight?? My truck is a tool that I work with and it needs to work flawlessly, not something I just drive around in because I want a truck 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
