Homemade??

I see this car periodically. It seems unique.
No symbols, words, etc. on the body. Anyone ever see one like it?

Thanks Nathan. 👍🏼Looks straight out of Blade Runner. I see starting price around $80k.

I see those regularly where I live. I'll bet the resale on those are gonna be pretty sad. Im noticing a few older EV's for sale on say Craigslist mentioned they'll soon need a new battery and the prices are dirt cheap compared to the original cost. The replacement of a battery on an EV is no small expense. Also there's probably a disposable fee on top of that. My daughter's only vehicle is an EV and she sure has her regrets over that purchase.

I can't see a single reason anyone would want one of those. It seems ill suited to just about every purpose you would buy a truck for.

Not my cup of tea.

More like a stainless steel appliance

Ugliest thing with wheels.
It was released with quite a bit of fanfare and some questionable claims.

I think all this EV crap is just a test to see how dumb folks are... nothing more.
People have actually cut themselves on the edges of that piece of crap above... really !!
There is no way a vehicle from any company ,other than 'Tesla' , would be allowed to be on the road with the obvious danger to pedestrians etc...
Best to just ignore this crowd for as long as possible..

Yeah we see them a lot here in the central mountains. OK, let's get this straight. In Blackfoots' pic the red vehicle in the background is actually a truck. No clue what the attraction is. No cool factor about them I see. No country song will ever be written about them. No classic rock group will ever sing in a commercial for them. Myself, I drive a Chevy Silverado TRUCK and Chevy Corvette.

It sure doesn't look like a truck.

Kinda like a dumpster on wheels. You know I grew up in a car culture where your vehicle was a representation of yourself and how you hoped the world would see you. So more power to the people who see something in these. I would like to talk to an owner of one, but seems like when they park up here they run away real quick. I bet the Beach Boys never do a song about one of these.

I have friends here that has a tesla. They tell me it has 2 electric motors. One in the frond and one in the rear. They say it will hit 200 MPH

 

[Gare]

BTW They also have a pickup that is similar to it

They say it will hit 200 MPH

And where do they expect to able to legally drive that fast?

I had a 1948 12 horsepower tractor going 75 m.p.h. on a highway.
Of course it was riding on a trailer ; but that's pretty fast for a 12 horse.

One eased into a parking area when we were hosting guests to lunch in a nearby village last summer.
We noticed it but didn't pay it much mind other than it was quiet.
