EV alternative for light/medium duty trucks
So much wheel spinning on EVs, what if they are not the right path forward? The biggest problem with renewable power and EVs is storage, the second is storage, and the third is storage. Another pat...

Tesla was never known by their quality.
Any one I ever looked at close, no matter the model,3, X, S, doesn't matter, had the worst job of body panel alignment I've ever seen. They need to go to a good body shop for a going over before they ever hit the road. The body panels were aligned better on 1970's Ford Mavericks and Pintos.
Really! Tesla is building an innovative looking car to compete with a Maserati! I can't imagine much effort was put in making sure TEsla had the cleanest lines in the industry. Tesla had much bigger challenges than body panel alignment.
Their innovation is certainly not about the body panels.
Their innovation transformed EV's from economy minded commuter boxes that the mainstream manufactures were struggling to build.
To a totally new concept that delivered enough performance and viability that it threatens to eliminate ICE cars in the future.
AS I keep saying you need to drive a Tesla to understand that the EV revolution is all about. Debating/chastising body panel alignment totally misses the boat!
Lighten up Francis. When slapping down the coin for an expensive vehicle its sort of nice when the body panels align as opposed to looking like it had collision damage repaired by Earl Scheib. That applies equally to an EV or ICE. The body panels are aligned better on a cheap Kia Soul which one could buy 2+ for the price of a base model 3. Those Model 3's look like a cross between a 1998 Pontiac Sunfire and a 1976 Ford Maverick except the Sunfires and Mavericks body panels aligned better.
