Fortunately, they only had to haul it two blocks.
This is a great video. Jay is funny as always and asks really intelligent questions. Definitely worth watching.
I see semi trucks carrying semi trucks across country in 3-4 days. Of course they use fuel from the source, diesel.
Never could stand Jay Leno. He can drive his car off a cliff for all I care.
fortunately they were towing another tesla semi to double their chances of making to their destination on time.
I wanted to hear Leno blast the auto igniting Taslas & EV’s. Guess not. Disappointing. Leno looks tired.
Jay seems like a nice guy, even if he is a Lefty, he largely keeps that to himself (that I am aware of-I don’t watch television or follow him, just my impression.)
I didn’t watch the whole thing, but what I did watch, they spent minimal time talking about the 500 mile range on straight and level ground at the optimal environmental conditions.
They spent far more time on how nice the driving experience was, how much easier it was to handle, how less fatiguing to the driver it was, and so on.
I am all onboard for those things, since the classic truck envionment is likely a cramped, hot/cold, noisy and fatiguing one. I suspect certain mechanical types of issues may be improved as well.
But all in all, this was a sales pitch video, the way all sales pitch videos are. They don’t show you reality. They show you what they want you to see.
I’m not buying it. But I’ll bet it might be great if you are doing 100 mile runs.
How come they never discuss the U.S. power grid capacity?
Put a million more trucks and passenger vehicles on the road, it’s going to choke off the power grid.
Kind of hard to make money in the trucking industry when you have to tow a backup tractor in addition to your cargo. Probably got the idea from the “brilliant” energy czar.
In the face of global events, Jay Leno news in an insignificant pimple on the back side of the globe and a distraction from the important news. Except for the unaware the planet, who are distracted by trending REAL news.
Leave it to the tiktok morons to make this “news”, not a conservative news and discussion forum please.
THIS THREAD I’D LIKE WHAT PARIS NOTION HAD FOR LUNCH.
