    Looks like VW has now jumped on board the NACS train On a side note, I really like the Lucid

    Actually you showed a RC cybertruck. I could totally be wrong but I bet that the production cybertruck comes with a lot less aggressive off road tires than what those two trucks have. I will be very surprised if Tesla put off-road tires with 118mph speed rating on a CT. Do you not understand...

    About 19 minutes in they show the inside. It looks like the visibility would be excellent.

    But again, just passing on what I've read. Here is another that seems to analyze everything https://www.theautopian.com/why-the-tesla-cybertruck-struggling-up-a-steep-snowy-hill-isnt-anything-to-be-ashamed-of/ This could be 100% false My Autopian colleague Pete performed some Google magic and...

    When do you think you will buy a 100% pure electric vehicle?

    That's.....the.....point. They both use off-roading tires and they give up on-road performance to have better off roading capabilities. How do you think a Porsche Cayenne Turbo GT, that will do 189mph will do off roading with it's summer only tires? Tires mean everything. Every manufacture has...

    I've only tried free charging once. It was ikea and it may have been the slowest charger known to man. I think it was like 3 miles in an hour.

    **** if I know. Just telling you what they said and what I witness with my own eyes in the video.

    That picture was not a production cybertruck. It had all season tires, non functional lockers, pre production software with traction control issues, etc. Watch the video and look at the tires at 47 seconds

    Don't buy one. If you're buying a $50k car and you don't have access to a home charger, don't buy one, it's that easy.

    Tires have everything to do with speed as well as off road capability.

    When do you think you will buy a 100% pure electric vehicle?

    It really hasn't been that cold here and we keep it in the garage. It's really nice to be able to pre-warm it up before leaving the garage. I don't know how they do it but if you don't pre-heat and turn the steering wheel heater on, it's warm by the time I close the garage door, it's nuts. I...

    When do you think you will buy a 100% pure electric vehicle?

    What I'm asking is how often do you drive more than 250 miles in a day? I personally do that about 4 times a year. The other 361 days a year I can charge at home and not worry if it takes 4 hours to charge at low speeds. Maybe your driving habits are different. One thing to consider is that...

    If you drive like a typical person, this is the last thing you should be worried about.

    I've heard that as well but I think those are being used for pretty short runs.

    Random Thoughts 17: Here we go again.

    Speaking of Willie, I watched and enjoyed the tribute to him a few days ago. With that said, once you hit 85(He's 90), it's probably time to let it go. I saw him in Des Moines a few years ago and even then he was struggling to get a breath. Kris Kristofferson is 87 and was even worse. I'd love...

    From what I know, which probably isn't a lot, we're a long ways off on long haul EV trucks. The largest issue is the power it will take to charge a semi is incredible. Someone spoke in front of congress and said that in Joliet Illinois, they were thinking about adding 30 truck chargers. The draw...

    I have no clue what they ship with. They said this wasn't a production unit.
