@Tesla Semi needs some love and isn't talked about enough. Lets compare it with a traditional commercial truck. Kenworth T800 It gets around 4 mpg loaded and carries 200 Gallons of fuel. It has a 80,000lbs payload capacity. The average price of diesel in the USA is $3.62. The cost of traveling 60 miles is $54.30 USD. Tesla Semi It has a capacity of 80,000lbs. It uses around 1.7kwh/mi. The average price / kwh is 17 cents. The same 60 mile trip costs $17.34 USD. Along with the huge benefit of cost reduction for travel it is also zero emissions, especially when solar is involved in the charging process. A LOT of diesel trucks have their emissions systems deleted, so i truly believe that emissions estimates from the traditional ICE engine global fleet is underestimated. The final benefit is also a vehicle with fewer moving parts. No driveshafts, u-joints, transmission, Engine, Fuel tanks, Air cleaners etc. No more 500hr engine oil changes. Maintenance and part count is reduced substantially. This truck is going to make up the majority of commercial fleets in the future. Spread the word please!

@SawyerMerritt @TroyTeslike It's going to be a lot harder for the general public to accept that a robot killed someone rather than a person. Could be 100M miles, could be 300M miles between interventions. Its a slippery slope.

@LhommeDesole @Tesla Good enough for now until I get the ball rolling on getting it professionally done

@LhommeDesole @Tesla 🥲 not today Satan, this is just a quick cheap repair so the big spot doesn’t spread. If it turns out barely noticeable I’ll do the others. If it turns out like shit I’ll go get a quote to assess the damage.

@MattWShow Not sure how much longer the grants will last but they offer a 40k 0% interest loan over 20 years or so in Canada for a solar setup.

@TESLA_winston @Tesla I’m on it 🤘 The mudflap and the fender liner seem to create a pocket where dirt etc accumulates…
