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

Kia's have been great cars in recent years. They've come a long way from the crap they built 15-20 years ago. Dodge, yeah that's a bit of a surprise.

What do we think the implications are of this from last week? Who's going to benefit?
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/califor...and-van-sales/ California regulators approved new rules on Thursday that would force automakers to sell more electric work trucks and delivery vans, a first-of-its-kind rule aimed at helping the nation's most populous state clean up its worst-in-the-nation air quality. The rules, which would not take effect until 2024, will require at least 40% of all tractor trailers sold in California to be zero emission by 2035. For smaller trucks, including models like the Ford F-250, 55% of all sales would be zero emission by 2035. The standard is the toughest for delivery trucks and vans, with 75% of sales required to be zero emission by 2035. California already has similar rules in place for passenger vehicle sales. But no one has yet imposed rules like these for work trucks, which unlike passenger vehicles are purchased with the intent of returning a profit. At the last minute, the board also set a goal of making government fleets and last mile delivery trucks entirely electric five years earlier than previously envisioned, by 2035. (More at link.) |

You know, the Tesla Truck would be a very effective way to avoid getting shot by Antifa and BLM. When they are blocking the street, you can drive slowly through, pestering them about, without fear from being shot through your bulletproof vehicle.
Cheapest way to buy a tank. |

To communicate that I didn't write it. It was the ethical thing to do. You should come to the light.

Eh, maybe. IF they can get electric trucks worked out, they'll likely be very competitive. In an industry in which the bottom line rules, the cheap cost of electricity and low maintenance would be a huge bonus.
