    With the Musk fandom moving further and further to the right in recent years, it seems this truck probably has a lot more commercial potential now than when it was first announced a hundred or so years ago. People are going to be driving around in overpriced electric trucks in order to “own the liberals”.

        It’s interesting because it’s got great features for a range of uses however each of those uses it has major flaws that make it a horrible option.

        Electric work vehicle would be great but the bed is super awkward and the general layout looks awkward

        As an off-road sleeper it’s extra solar panel option is great but it’s so big the energy consumption makes it worthless

        For general multi-,use it’s storage isn’t big enough to fill half the jobs and it’s physically too large to be useful in half the jobs

        Of course it will sell because people seem obsessed by buying the worst vehicle on the market but what can you do

      No way rednecks will be switching to this stupid thing. It’s not “manly” looking enough for those types.
