Tesla’s troubled electric pickup is illegal in Europe, yet somehow a barely modified model has found a way to get licensed. A group of European transport organizations claim this ride could spell disaster.
Not sure what qualities a car has to make it macho, but I saw a Fiskar Ocean the other day on the road in matte forrest green, and thought it was pretty sexy. I don’t know their pitfalls yet, but it was enough to make me look them up. Not a fan of the giant screen in the middle, but maybe it would grow on me.
Edit: and they might be declaring bankruptcy and selling off their assets… Welp that sucks
Yeah they are pretty sweet in person. The prices are dropping fast, I’m seeing them for $15k. Even with some potential repair costs and having to figure it out myself (since there’s no warranty) that’s a pretty amazing deal.
I was hoping to get a used one in a few years to use on the farm. The range and load capacity would be well within most errands. I’m now eyeing an Edison Motor’s kit for an old square body.
I’m still pissed the EVs were discontinued.
Yeah… that was a bummer. I don’t think cybertruck and its mountain of failures is helping the case for “macho” evs
