If it isn't a moneyless, classless, and stateless society, it isn't communism. Just because a party with the name communist is in power doesn't make a state communist. It is like saying that the US is a democracy when the democrats are in power and a republic when the republicans are in power...

Communism is a stateless, moneyless, and classless society. Neither USSR, nor China are communist. They are state capitalist.

The US is not a democracy and you are subjugated by a controlling authority. Also, Joe Biden is extreme right, not the radical left.

Yeah, like when did Trevor Milton start working for VW?

Take your own advice.

I love how you cherry pick the data and ignore the efficiency of an electric motor (90%), to a HFC (Maybe 50%). And you ignore the fact that you can charge that battery almost anywhere, and you can fill up hydrogen almost nowhere. Or that Tesla have hundreds of thousands of BEV's on the road...

One of them does indeed exist.

Ok, so, towing range will be 300 and 250. So now the gap is 50 miles apart. Do you have an actual argument here? You make claims like "Battery technology isn't within 100 miles yet." But then you don't explain why you believe this and offer zero evidence to back it up.

So, are you saying that Tesla is lying about their claim that the CyberTruck can provide 500 miles of range?

Yes, a hybrid bridge that requires developing a massive infrastructure costing trillions of dollars to fill the gap between a BEV that will go 500 miles, and a hybrid HFC/BEV that will go 600 miles until battery technology fills the gap for that extra 100 miles.

The Badger is a fuel cell/battery passenger truck.

Any pressure buildup in the tanks would open the over pressure valve and all he hydrogen would escape. And if that failed, composite tanks rupture, they don't explode.

Even if ignited, it is far less dangerous than gasoline, diesel, propane, or a battery. It would burn off in seconds and be done.

No, it isn't. Low pressure hydrogen has a very low volumetric density. High pressure hydrogen has a low gravimetric density. You either lose physical space or weight capacity.

I don't know how much they cost, but I know they weigh about 25-30kg for every 1kg of hydrogen stored. Nikola holds 80kg. The effective energy density of compressed hydrogen is only around 1,400Wh/kg not counting the weight of the HFC. The tanks are actually the safest form of energy storage...

I see that Gm has dropped the idea of FCV's for their own passenger vehicles. This is how I imagine a meeting going at GM. "We are going to halt our development of fuel cells in passengers cars and trucks." "Well, we spent billions on development, how can we recoup that?" "Hmmm, maybe we...

Interesting that Nikola is going to use GM batteries and HFC system meaning they essentially have nothing to offer. What innovation is coming from Nikola?

Most other companies have billions of dollars to invest in BEV technology.

If they admit they were wrong about hydrogen and go all battery, then investors will drop them and they won't be able to do either. HFC's are their ONLY selling point. Otherwise, every single semi manufacturer and of course Tesla, are already way ahead of them. Tesla has all the autopilot...
