    Well it was built in Lyons,Oregon East of Salem,Oregon by a truck driver. Single cab,driver sat in the middle. Mid engine with outstanding fuel mileage because of aerodynamics. He had 6 of them all hand built. Freightliner turned him down to build mass production. There gone now. I'd see them going over the Cascades daily. Around 1980s.

    I have been called a powerful tool before but with a different meaning.

    Have you looked at what Edison Motors is doing in Canada? Hybrid truck built for Bush logging, similar cab setup. And these guys have done everything in a fabric shed without major backing, pretty impressive.

    Join the club. @tramm01 is also doing questionable things. We are here for you if you need to talk.

    It is really impressive. I don’t think any of the electric semi truck fan boys on TTR in the other threads know about it. They only consume what is fed to them.

    It really is and I think the hybrid design is far and away the most sustainable design.
