You imply something bad happened at Nürburgring. Please enlighten us as to what happened.

There is a whole world of difference between a racing engine that puts out 600 HP and a class 8 truck engine that puts out 600 HP.

There is a whole world of difference between an engine the can put out 500 HP for hours and an engine that can put out 500 HP for a few minutes at a time on a track.

Anybody that thinks you can bolt several model 3 motors in a semi are you're good to go is delusional.

And before the fan boi's move the goal post again; Tusk talked about an over the road class 8 semi. He was not talking about a UPS city vehicle that bee bops around a city route of 100 miles or so.

“If you want, for long-range trucking, you can take the range up to, we think, easily 800 km, and we see a path over time to 1,000 km range for a heavy-duty truck,” said Musk.

You heard it from Tusk first: 621 miles.

Now we will see how the goal post moves.

Time, remember when you said we will see a handful of Tesla Semi's at the end of 2019......then 2020.....then 2021? We are at the beginning of 2022. Where is the Semi at?
