This does seem like a desperate āoh sh*t!!ā Moment for Chrysler. Like they just now realized when F150 hit 100k reservations that āthis electric car thing might actually be something!!ā. Feels a bit rushed with no meat ie: not a single working prototype on display.
To be fair I donāt think very many vehicles are āmillion mileā built at all. I think a lot of people are expecting an un-realistic amount of long term reliability compared to their expectations of ICE alternatives. For example, whenās the last time you saw a thread regarding full power train...
Update! These are from my area, middle tennessee, itās not winter, still massively unimpressive range. One car is at 99% charged, only 14 miles on the OD, and itās the 300 mile ālong rangeā RWD version and it shows 204 range. They are all the large pack premium trim ones. Me thinks F150...
Yeah Iām open to be corrected, but Iām pretty dang sure the 2.9 to 60 is the fastest production truck ever and would be the fastest 4x4 ever if it werenāt for the Model X. The 2.9 makes it quicker than the 400k Lambo suv and the Bentley thing.
They hold signs saying āstop market manipulationā, so they support free markets? Signs also say ācensor Elon Muskā, so they donāt support free markets? Just seems like some pasty butt hurt wannabe crypto investors who lost money gambling on fictitious currency with no tangible value. They remind...
A guy can dream, although they are way smaller than the look on youtube. Check out the B2, 207" long, thats shorter than a Ford Ranger Supercrew with a 5 ft bed. Still though, I love the brutal Defender aesthetic. https://bollingermotors.com/bollinger-b2/
Really nothing would stop me from buying unless I buy something else first. I'll be bummed if the Tri-Motor has less than 500 miles of range, but I highly doubt it at this point. Anything Lucid can do, Elon can do better. Price is a non-factor for me, as all Cybertruck ICE alternatives (my list...
Pollen turning your car green, rain rusting the rotors and calipers, sun fading your seats, tons of problems not garaging has on your vehicles in an environment like Tennessee.
Mirrors and bucket seat options I see as a given, you maybe able to use cameras as side view mirrors but you canāt replace trailering mirrors with cameras.
I do think the range will be somewhat more than originally estimated, surely with the new batteries they will be able to get more than...
Donāt worry about that, power retractable tonneau covers are actually common, the aftermarket figured them out a long time ago. To my knowledge, you can order them from the factory on all full size trucks from the big 3, I doubt theyād offer them as an official option if they break or gum up all...
This makes me very happy, solar tonneau was one of the very best features of CT, then Elon crapped on the idea on Roganās podcast. The idea that itās charging at all times while in the sun, parked or driving is pretty dang cool and brings out my optimistic side.
God I hope not. Letās get some factory rubber on the production models to expand the options for the end user. Iād really like an option for āsportā radial wheels and tires like Rivian offers, if youāve ever driven a truck with MTās for 30k miles youāll understand why.
