150k people have reserved the car so far after what, 2 days? at a $100 deposit - that's a $150,000,000 cash infusion for Tesla.

I like the power delivery characteristics of electric motors, but the only way I'm going with an EV as a daily driver is if internal combustion engines end up completely gimped by regulations.

My next car will be an electric. We have great incentives for them in Norway, and a great charging network.

In september 51% of new cars sold in Norway were electical.

^ rofl ...and the DSotM cover.



The rusty wire that holds the cork that keeps the anger in
Gives way and suddenly it’s day again
The sun is in the east
Even though the day is done
Two suns in the sunset, hmph
Could be the human race is run

For one, is the Tesla the AWD model? That F-150 isn't...

Second, even if the Tesla is also RWD it's a safe bet there's a lot more weight on the driven wheels due to all that battery at the bottom of the vehicle...

I read Ford has challenged them over that pull. Maybe there's some fun stuff to come from it.

Plus the fact the Low Poly-Count Truck was already rolling when the F150 started its wheels
Plus Ford has already called them out, so they could 'jump the line' and get one of the First Space trucks, so they could do a real test.
