I plan to get one in the future, what are your plans?

If so what are your pluses or minuses ?

That's the big question for me. I don't care about the sheek look.

And I think most folks arguing every point against the truck are likely doing it out of instinct against electric vehicles.

Still, show me the range while towing and some consistency, and Im way in on this.

This is awesome as I've been thinking an Audi is my next. They say there's a certain type of person that drives an Audi.

FACT: Electric vehicles typically have a smaller carbon footprint than gasoline cars, even when accounting for the electricity used for charging.

Electric vehicles (EVs) have no tailpipe emissions. Generating the electricity used to charge EVs, however, may create carbon pollution. The amount varies widely based on how local power is generated, e.g., using coal or natural gas, which emit carbon pollution, versus renewable resources like wind or solar, which do not. Even accounting for these electricity emissions, research shows that an EV is typically responsible for lower levels of greenhouse gases (GHGs) than an average new gasoline car. To the extent that more renewable energy sources like wind and solar are used to generate electricity, the total GHGs associated with EVs could be even lower. Learn more about electricity production in your area.

EPA and DOE’s Beyond Tailpipe Emissions Calculator can help you estimate the greenhouse gas emissions associated with charging and driving an EV or a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) where you live. You can select an EV or PHEV model and type in your zip code to see the CO2 emissions and how they stack up against those associated with a gasoline car.

My 2005 Avalanche allows you to do that and it came in handy on many occasions. Of course the Avalanche had a shorter bed on it than a standard truck but being able to lie things flat in the bed vs. having to tie things down is nice.
The downside is the road noise is loud. You wouldn't want to do this for a very long trip.

I live in dust county, along with common 30+ mph wind.

Any nook or crevice is a weak point. The pickup bed is also used for real work, not hauling a couple 2x4s for a weekend warrior project.

I’m still pissed they removed the manual handle for the tailgate. Dust gets in there and it doesn’t open half the time.

If GM would like to test their vehicles in a true work environment Bueh and I are open to it.

As long as I can lay a 4x8 sheet flat I’m good. Anything longer and I’ll just put it over the tailgate or lay the tailgate down.

I also think for now a lot of the people interested in the electric truck would be like me, suburban living and not all that concerned with huge towing and distance. So with that your cab probably has car seats or other random kids stuff and there is basically zero chance I would ever lay those seats down. It would be a huge hassle to use and not a selling point at all.

Oh I understand completely. I'm always cleaning oak leaves and junk out of the bed rails on my Avalanche.
While I might not be a construction guy doing "real work" with my Avalanche, I will tell you it has hauled plenty of roofing material, sheetrock, lumber etc over its lifetime.
Not many complaints on it either, except at 280,000 miles, I finally need to be looking for a new truck.

They did what? Is it an electric only tailgate?
