    Have you tried that cold cabin even with a small breed dog?
    I mean we could all be ok. If you had Fortress clothing. Look them up. It's some good stuff. I wish I had their stuff. But it's not cheap.

    The dog can get under the blanket too. From what I'm reading the dog will be around long after you're dead because you're obviously the "give up and die" type.

    Read this where? I'd just go to a hotel if one were near. And Tesla could reimburse for it.

    Must be tough being an ignorant condescending person all the time. Why don't you go break down again and depend on a forum to bail you out

    These things are designed for local work. If the company isn't taking care of the issue you call a cab or uber and go home.....

    Of all diesel day cabs and sleeper tractors, how many use a bunk heater? I'd say the market for this is fairly large, especially for short haul runs where trucks are parked back at home location every night.

    Have your actually drove one of these trucks or worked on one? If you are just reading press releases from Tesla, there track record for releasing information is not the best. Let's see what they do when they eventually hit the road.
     
    peterd, nax and Oldironfan Thank this.

    No idea what electric tesla trucks are like to drive.
    I did see a charge station the other day, the rate was 6 cents a minute, so $3.60 an hour but how long does a tesla truck need to charge on a 240 volt supply?
