it's a box truck not a pick up

I will wait to see what Cummins brings out. There have been electric trucks spotted around here recently.

I am in the crowd... Where's Cooper?

Its a class 7 used for regional shipping. I think they are increasing that and adding on the road charging options to it. It is there first rodeo in electric.

With 140 kWh, the pack brings a range of just 100 miles—although Cummins says that’s extendable to 300 miles with additional (modular) battery packs.

As someone who drives cars, I'm not sure that I want to share the road with semis that have really fast acceleration.

EV's typically need brake jobs far less often than gas-powered cars due to regenerative braking.

I was talking about surviving "widow maker" downhill grades on regenerative braking. No, no, no, give me some bad ass brakes and not electric ones either...

Well, sure, but you realize they have "real" brakes too, right? They just don't need them as much.

You might be surprised. When up until recently EV and HB cars have been very light, now we are talking about 80,000lbs vs 3-5000lbs.
I am saying, I want to see the redundancy systems for brakes that they use.

What the hell kind of rubber do you have to have on a truck to get to 60 in 20 seconds weighing 80? Given how my 30 HP electric irrigation motors make my electric meter sing like a songbird, I can't imagine what hooking up a few trucks will do. Whee!

I'd be on board though. As long as it has solid connections for the rough ass roads in my neck of the woods, I can put 100,000 on it (but if anybody asks, it was 85 when I pulled out of the shop), and it can handle a ridiculous amount of dust from the county roads.

I would be interested in the math on that. Pure transportation costs, I doubt, but if you're going to add in costs for loading/unloading I'd like to know what those are. It may be just a semi trailer on a flat train car. Those numbers would be easier to believe.

Why not? Should do wonders for traffic congestion. Especially in LA area.

I've been vaping for a while and I keep my eye/ear out for li-on battery news. Industries like this push development and we seem to end up with whatever batteries are most popular and stable. I've heard that someone had a breakthrough recently with solid state lithium ion batteries. Could be a huge game changer.
