    I saw a video of a Model X towing a semi uphill in the snow. There was no smoke, either.

    I like my 2018 Volvo that rides like a luxury sedan,
    Do you even have air seats or suspension?

    Did you buy the Volvo? Who’s paying the massive repair bill on that truck after warranty expires?

    Scale house on 78 heading into Jersey. Didn't pay attention to what agency that is. Had a Grumman type van and were pulling about every 4th truck around.

    You had to shut off. They put a probe in the exhaust, lifted the hood and looked with mirrors underneath. Then watched as you turned the key on (no idea why) fired up and idle for 1 minute (?) And hold a certain rpms for a minute, then idle again.

    It was back when I worked for Titan so 7 or 8 years.

    Sure isn't tesla about broke? How exactly is he going to break into a market he has no clue about when he's broke and what he's trying to sell is going to require a complete revamp of truckstops to run his "trucks?" How long are the batteries going to last on that thing before they don't hold a charge anymore? Now you've got all that worked out and you wreck on I90 in nowhere south dakota in a snowstorm and before getting you out of that thing the EMS has to figure out how to kill the power so they don't get fried and you die while they're figuring it out, still like that idea?

    Teslas thing is a joke. We will be running fuel cell, and LNG trucks way before that #### thing.
