Tesla semi - any goss

Yeah, EV's are ridiculous. Sure, Elon slaps the "1000 hp" sticker on it, what about torque? Overlooked that part did we? It doesn't matter how you have that motor wired either AC/DC (Not the rock band) there's not a lot out there that can beat the torque of a diesel. I refer to EV"s as the "brainwashing vehicles". They'd better not start that on us truckers.

 

we can't go net zero unless countries like china and india stop using fossil fuels also. thats not happening . the green new deal is nothing more than a swindle factory the greenie new sreal

 

How do you recharge a battery? OH YEA with fuel powered energy source. it's a shame how easily the public can be brain washed

 

That part is 100% truth.
But even beyond "fossil" fuels, net zero, carbon neutral, etc., etc. is not only impossible, but unnecessary. Propaganda.

 

People sound like diesel is magically coming out of the ground. We have get oil from ground, put it in a double hauled ship, then refine the oil to diesel and gas. Then run it to storage tanks. Then have truck come get it and bring it to truck stop and gas station. Dump it in ground tanks. Then pump it into your tanks.

Electric trucks won’t just replacing diesel anytime soon but as they build charging network and if the trucks prove they can run cheaper per mile then diesel. They could make an OTR version. Lots of unknowns at the point. Plus we don’t have power to recharge all electric trucks yet. California is famous for their brown outs during summer heat.

 

Not to mention the cost of war to keep the oil supply secure.

 

AGREE!!!

 

This is year old but Tela was planning on Megawatt charging network from CA to TX. They could run to they factory CA to TX

 

Youtube's newest. More propaganda, but ..........

 

Respectfully , i see no way in hell recharging a battery that size in that time for 200$ . If it does how much juice you gonna use going up monteagle or lheading east out of saltlake ? Im sure of many other steep climbs but the 2 im familiar with .
