  1. Lucas P You will be driving an electric car with in a decade or so and getting your deliveries via electric trucks and you'll never be so happy to be wrong. Unless of course you are the last loser in your town still fussing with fuel, endless maintenance, poor performance and high operating costs.

  2. Briseur De Lance YOU are one of those 'prophets' soon to be proven wrong. A decade or so from now you too will be using an EV even if you don't know it yet.

  3. Michael Cross It will be able to do all that and perform far better on the road then any diesel truck ever....with one possible shortcoming....the payload is yet to be announced. (a serious omission as noted in vid) It will do at least 60 mph at gross on a 6%, I would guess a lot better given their history of under promising on performance. You will be able to plug in, walk away for a 30 min break and return with an extra 300 miles of charge. Range will be a non issue. All you truckers will be envious of the speed of the Teslas and lack of maintenance headaches.

  4. /b/ Tard There are some 6.5 MILLION jobs waiting for qualified applicants already and there has been a decade shortage of truckers. Complete nonsense to worry about jobs no one wants enough to take them anyway. Beyond that--it's called wealth creation, that requires productivity increases which ONLY happen when workers get MORE DONE as in, say, one operator controlling multiple trucks. Get a grip on reality.
