tesla .....TRUCK ???? Yea, right.... try to haul gravel in it, or bring a dishwasher home...
( Should have a different description , ie, "El Camino " kinda name? )
This "truck" will be a 3rd vehicle for play, purchased by rich people.... subsidized by poor taxpayers like all other sporty electric vehicles......

I kinda like the 'look'..... but not,.... what it was designed for.....

i'd buy it but nowhere to charge it up though;... that is the issue the 500 miles should be standard 250miles range does not sound too hot to me maybe if the range was at lest 350 miles

but 500 miles would make killing on uber $$$

since it would cost very little in power costs vs gas..


you could uber all day and make a bunch of money....

:D...

That’s true but that is how bullet proof glass reacts. Any other car, the window would have shattered and blown out completely. With that Tesla, the metal ball bounced back, and only created “bullet proof like” indentations. The rest of the glass remained intact. Pretty incredible

That’ll work out great when you’re trapped in the vehicle and first responders are trying to get you out.

I think I mentioned that above, maybe not, but what about the scenario where the call falls into a river? Would the occupants. E able to break the glass with a sharp metal object like a screw driver? A simple pop is supposed to shatter car safety glass isn’t it?

Laminated glass is standard/ common on 2015+ tahoe and sub models so you don't get Ejected when you crash and roll over.. Car manufactures have to fix stupid people problems and that is one of the ways of fixing it


The glass performed as designed if anyone does not know how it works they need to stay away from a large object with lamented glass


NBS 2002-2006 also

the NNBS does NOT have laminated glass as the sideair bags keep you trapped inside...

2015-2019 does
