I honestly can't wait for these to be all over the place, the faster, the better. It is just awesome to know that there will not only be less smog, and smoke from trucks on the road, but also less noise. Add to that the safety features (and possible inclusion of FSD in the future), and you have a recipe for something that can really feels like we are starting to step into the future of logistics.

To be entirely honest, I don't even know what a normal truck goes for. But if I had to put a figure on it, I would guess somewhere between 200k and 300k? And this maybe being closer to 300k depending on options.
