Well, he said it was going to be different.
Starts at $40k, though. That's impressive. |

Just got off the road to my mom's tonight. 2 hr drive. Plenty of range. Charging if I needed it and didn't touch the wheel anymore than required by law through rain at 37°. I'm here and not nearly as drained as I would be otherwise. Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk |

You know that the bed cover can be open, right?

So this truck is never going to break down in middle of nowhere needing a part and someone who works on Telas in bum **** Egypt. I can be literally anywhere in the USA and be busted down and have a tow if needed to a qualified mechanic who can get us up and running usually within hours not more than a day. Im sure qualified Tesla mechanics are everywhere.

Tesla will come flat bed it if they have to. Breakdowns should be few and far between though. No belts pulleys or other Bullshit to go. Again. Lose a motor, you've got 1-2 more to get you where you need to be. Literally only the suspension or battery could stop you. They've got cars out there with 630,000+ miles on the battery no problem. New battery and drivetrain to last 1 million miles and now with the stainless steel body to match. Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk |

Look man, I appreciate you saying notorious and I are being reasonable, and I really am. I'd love a rig that does those things right, but I'm not going to be on the bleeding edge of one. I don't go near as far out as notorious and I don't haul as much as him most days. I'd be a far better fit for the rig than he would. Quote:

If you want an itemized list I can do that for you.
But the important thing is for me in my line of work, I need this shit. I need this shit stable going down the road and accessible when it isn't. And I need the EV to handle the shit I put it through reliably. But yeah. Your comments about toolboxes being impossible to organize is fairly offensive to a guy that has some cheap tools, put them in a cheap pickup and is trying to make a living with them. |

So while sitting in the hospital today I did some research on what I mean by this truck won’t work like my current 3/4 much less the 1 ton on the farm.
The Tesla would not work for hauling due to the time constraints and mileage we put in hauling to sale. It is around 75 miles round trip from the chute on the farm to the chute at the sale barn. I pass 4 gas stations on my way there and same 4 on the way back, 8 opportunities to fill up. Absolutely no chargers anywhere close to my route, it would be about an 1.5 hours out of the way to get to a charger. We load trailers up to 17,500-20,000 lbs each time, and we make around 5-6 trips the day before the sale. So roughly 350-420 miles in a day, while under the 500 mile range, it would blow through that battery way quicker. I’m expecting 250 fully maxed out for that trucks range. I do not have time to stop hauling to charge a truck up for an hour, whenever I can fill the truck up a few times in a total of 30 mins throughout the day. Now if it turns out the Tesla can still get 300 plus fully maxed towing, they start making a flatbed to go on the back, our contract with the current sale barn runs out, cattle prices rise, they put Super Chargers up instead of the Destination Chargers around the route, then I will seriously sit down and consider it |
