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

I am the second most excited person in this thread about electric trucks, but Tesla better actually talk to someone that uses their truck for actual work when designing the final product.
Think crew cab on at least a 2500 frame, with a usable 6.5-8’ pickup or flatbed. I’m intrigued by the low maintenance and longevity. |

The current Tesla concept truck is for the dude that tools around the city in his 1500 High Country and loses his shit if the pickup bed liner gets scratched from hauling his wife’s IKEA purchases.

Grid is built to supply your home with the rating of your panel. Your car will take only 30-40 amps and charges over a number of hours. You aren't charging 300 miles each night, most likely under 80 most nights. That coupled with the decrease in demand from led light bulbs and other more efficient appliances over the years makes it really a moot point. If there is any issue beyond this, it'll be more than offset by the massive amounts of battery storage about to hit the grid over the next decade. Sent from my Pixel 6 Pro using Tapatalk |

Yes, the grid could use industrial scale battery storage.
It could also use more long distance, super high capacity transmission lines. Neither is especially easy to come by.

I don't think high capacity lines are a huge issue. Honestly, battery storage should create enough microgrids to keep production close to consumption. Sent from my Pixel 6 Pro using Tapatalk |
