Why no suicide doors like the Semi?

The diesel boys will no longer get to say "the one with the most lug nuts wins". I do like the concept of super singles shown.

I wonder if center position driving could catch on.

Real deal scheduled to be seen on November 21st.

With the driver in the middle, how do I order and get my Bacon McDouble and large Doctor Pepper, inner the gate code to get into storage lot, pay tolls, drive thru bank lane, throw out my empty been cans etc etc?


It comes equipped with Grip N Grab.:B

Don't you think with our memories still fresh, we can still remember to embarrass you with your skepticism and crazy can't do speculations?
Remember this next year when the pickup truck still isn't in even limited production. Showing a one-off means very little, it becomes real when they are actually available to purchase.


Get yourself edumacated, that's how auto companies do it!;)

Utilities expect to see a total grid load increase of about 20 percent to power the private vehicle fleet. The average daily consumption of a commuter vehicle is 6 to 8 kWh. Meh. Most Utilities are welcoming the customers. They have 30 years to figure it out. It doesnโ€™t happen overnight.

I'm rooting for Tesla, but after seeing one of their concept photos a couple of years ago showing the Tesla pickup with an F150 IN THE BED I pretty much ignore any of their press releases.

Reminds me of the old Ford econline and Chevy Corvair pickups, I remembered Volkswagen had one to back in the early 60's.


All are speculating now, but I doubt if this is how the truck will look.

It was described as muscular, tough and a military personnel carrier look-alike.

Cant's wait for Nov 21 (and the opening for reservations).

Its not a dually so it wonโ€™t work. The army fills battle tanks with helium to haul them on those wimpy single wheeler transporters. 1 wheel = grocery getter. rv dot net fact.

You will finally get an idea what the Tesla pickup will look like after two years of teasing. No idea how much longer Tesla will tease buyers before it actually becomes available:

My guess is at least a year to production. Battery supply is tight in the industry. The model Y and energy storage market will be sucking up capacity.

Agreed, photoshop fun. The 300000 lb. towing came from the folks at Quantas who hooked a ModelX to a 787-9 (empty weight right at 300000) and pulled it a few hundred yards. Thereโ€™s a YouTube of it.
Should be fun to see what they come up with.
