I've heard different, but we'll see.

Diesel stupid expensive.
Diesel isn't the only point to consider.

How often do the batteries need to replaced, what is the cost of maintenance, how much weight can the Tesla trucks carry.

I don't see the venture working out. It isn't like they're competing in a market where the consumers are interested in the latest fads and luxuries.

What happened to the cybertrucks?!? I mean this has to be their next play because they literally can't compete scale wise now that the other automakers have jumped fully into electric vehicles. I wonder what the end goal for Tesla is?

Idk why they think that. There are no specs on these semi trucks. Tesla hasn’t revealed the miles per charge or even the weight of the battery pack. There’s no charging stations for these trucks either. They’re keeping all of these specs hidden for a reason.

Makes you wonder if they even got any input from real truck drivers when they developed their concept. This dude broke down their entire design and showed why it's garbage using real world scenarios. But I bet instead of using this feedback to improve it, Elon will just ban this dude off Twitter for criticizing it. :mjlol:
