[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]320 miles for the extended range version isn't terrible. These trucks will be HEAVY.

230 miles for the normal version.

That is plenty of mileage for people who use them for work. And - let's get real - the first batch of these will be bought by rich people for driving around, not work. [/quote]

So then the realistic mileage is 275 & 190?

They are selling it as a power source. Power those tools?

Throw in some heavy equipment, a/c, and a 60 mile drive each way.

Could be cutting it close. [/quote]

This thing is for the site managers and above. More likely, it will be bought by lawyers, doctors, finance bros, tech bros.... I doubt see any construction worker buying one of these things to use on a job site and I really dont see anyone buying them as fleet vehicles [/quote]

Those are the same guys buying Model Xs.

So not really a game changer.

At least until it becomes more practical as a true work truck.

Most trucks sold in this price range are not work trucks- not many carpenters are lugging their equipment in the back of King Ranches. A lot of guys who think a Model X is a fancy minivan will buy these things. If it becomes acceptable as a truck, then it will be a game change. [/quote]

The low end model is $41k.

Not really game changer as another high-end bro car.

Base model F-150 today with an ICE engine is $30.5K (if you can even find one at MSRP). For $10K more, you get an EV and all the new tech that comes with it.

By 2024, most mid-size SUVs and trucks will be at the $40K starting point, even for ICE vehicles. That's the reality.[/quote]
