Yes, this is why I was suggesting a full electric semi class 8 course and training. See here: Tesla is listed. Truck classification - Wikipedia

What about very dangerous logging trails, temporary ice roads in Canada and etc. Perhaps we could send a lot of FSD trucks for those special types of jobs. :cool:

The electric F-150 is NOT set-up for plowing!!!
I sure hope the Cybertruck will be able to do all types of snow removal.
I am retired and considering a Tesla Semi. I am not interested in taking the long and boring diesel driving course for semies. Will/could Tesla make a deal to create their own course for Tesla Semi electric vehicles?
These are two very different vehicles use in similar situations....

I have also invested in Lion Electric and with these incentives I think they will do well building these types of vehicles.
Interesting, I see what you mean about the shorts. I think, in the long term, the shorts will all be in trouble trying to bet against Tesla. I hope the Tesla stock volatility we have seen in the last year will go away now that Giga Berlin and Texas are online and running.
What about this...
Some people think the split could be 20:1 not the old 5:1 this time. In any case I do not think it will be a 5:1 split. Perhaps a 10:1, but I like the idea of a 20:1 split given the added value of the stock as many people you included are predicting. Take $1110 down to $55.50 in a 20:1 split...
Perhaps Tesla, the public company, will be expended (e.g., a holding company) to include other parts owned by Elon (e.g., Space X and the Boring Company) to be able to raise all the needed capitals? Would that be a better way to integrate the stainless steel used by Space X, the CC and etc. FSD...
If you look in the video at 9.09 minutes you will find the following info about the battery pack structural purpose with the Cybertruck:

Yep, they wrote him [Elon] off as a dreamer! He wants to do things that can't be done. Hahaha, look at his truck. He wanted to come up with something outside-the-box. So he designed a triangle.

This is why triangles are special. :cool:

Great! Congratulation on your initiative. When my house was build, 20 years ago, I got a 2 inch PVC pipe going from the South side wall to the West side of the house for holding batteries. I still hope to do it someday.
Agree, it would/will definitively be a challenge, but I am optimistic, and think the new energy demands will create enough pressures to create sufficient innovation and supplies, given the markets can adjust with the proper costs of offers.
Cheers!
I would look at it the other way. We have lots of new energy opportunities ahead... The end of "peak oil" will require a raise in renewable energy types and efficiencies.
