Those carbon fiber panels sound like cat's meow... until some cherry hits it. There's a reason carbon fiber is only found on race vehicles and high end POVs.

AndrewH Thanks this.

It does make me wonder that, now that I think of it, but I dunno. Would probably have to sit in it and see. But, with all the technology there, I would bet they could pretty easily add some cameras to assist with that. Turn on a turn signal and one of those big dash screens light up with a cam view of that side. Or, go into reverse and both change to cam views of both sides.

20% more aerodynamic than current wall mart Peterbilt yield a 10% more fuel efficient. lest talk dollars and cents here.
how much is that turbine alone? about as much as a current truck? how about the electric motor and power system? also the reason why we don't see more carbon fiber out there is simply cost.
and than here comes the bomb, you put all that technology in these guys hand.
any questions?
I do have one.
how much is wall mart expecting us to pay for their product when they acquire a fleet of these trucks?
I know they're trying to help getting this country to a totalitarian regime so the government force us to go to their stores, but by then there's no going to be any money left in our pockets for them to afford all that. -
That video gets me every time lol
As for the walmart truck, I think its a neat but realistic? Nope. -
-
We don't need these extra parts, just lay them off to the side & someone will come along to pick them up later.
Now let me call my DM to see what he wants me to do. -
The truck can be yours for the low price of $400k-600k!

Such a great deal you almost cant afford NOT to buy it
