I’m guessing the fear is in your head. I work for the largest marine internal combustion engine builder in the world. We’ve got Teslas in the parking lot. Everyone just views them as another car. I’m yet to ever witness or hear first person of this bizarre hatred. Sure, there’s a few dopey...

If you’re that far out in the woods, who’s trying to steal your stuff and shoot you? Now I’d agree if you were talking about a safe place to sleep to avoid bears or something. (Been there)

Go take a look at that semi you drove. Look at the mirror width versus the trailer width. They had to hang ‘em way out there for a reason.

If you were that experienced, you wouldn’t be so hopelessly wrong.

It is physically impossible to bend light with a camera. They can’t look out and around an object. That’s the simplest fact possible.

The most basic high school geometry explains why tow vehicles use wide mirrors. A wide angle camera won’t solve anything. The wide mirrors aren’t to see behind the trailer, they’re needed to see around it. I don’t mean this question to be rude at all, but what’s your experience towing large...

Side mirrors are simple, cheap, and work just fine. Having said that, they’re an aerodynamic mess. I’ve got no problem leaving them behind. However, they really are needed for towing. I’m fine with an alternative solution as long as it works. The fender mounted cameras by themselves simply...

I’m with you. I just want a pickup truck. I’m not really worried about some silly apocalypse nonsense.

Oops, my math is off, but they do make 35’s.

Those are MT/R’s. If my math is right, 265’s would basically be 35’s which are an off the shelf item.

I’m so glad it won’t be on the undercarriage!!!! As someone who lives in the Rustbelt, that setup sucks. The cheap little cable rusts into place in nothing flat. I’ve been burned twice already with flat tires and unable to free up the spare.

The current camera mirror setup is fine for daily driving, but have any of you towed a big box trailer or camper? It’ll need side mirrors if it hopes to be a real truck. A removable option would be kind of cool.

Well, if they include ludicrous mode on the CT, I’ll probably just transfer the plates from my track car.

They’re awful. I had a set on my old Jeep. Great off-road, but awful on pavement in every way, including noise. My guess is they’re just on the concept vehicle because they look cool. They’re plenty of better options that are still great off-road, but much better mannered on road. I’m betting...

The problem there is that’s illegal in pretty much every state because at that point you’re impersonating an emergency vehicle.

I’ll never understand why someone would order something, then pout that they want it to be something else.

What exactly are you worried about? There’s plenty of Teslas romping around here in Wisconsin, and we do winter quite well here!

It’s a first for me. I need a truck to tow my boat, but have a 90 mile round trip to work, so really didn’t want to commute with a truck. An EV truck lets me go back to a single vehicle. It’s a win all around.
