For any fool that believes 30min charging will only take 30 minutes…

Please visit the Pilot Truck Stop at 400 Haynes St, Sturbridge, MA 01566.

It takes an hour to get to the fuel pumps to spend five to seven minutes refueling.

Do the math and add twenty five minutes minimum to every truck recharging and see the monstrous implications of battery powered logistics.

500+ miles range is desirable for 8 hours of driving diesel semis. 700miles is desirable for 11hr DOT limit per day.

Dress up a turd all you want with bells and whistles but it is still a turd.

And yes Elon Musk is a hereditary degenerate and card carrying tribe member with access to unlimited fiat currency directly from the central banking mafia thus I must agree…

Idk its probably the only station in that area that can fit a truck and trailer of that size. These truck drivers lack the skills to drift sideways 40 mph into the 2-4 diesel pumps at most gas stations that are designed for vehicles no longer than 20-30 feet.

One would think an ev world would be more confining and slower overall than the gas fueled one we have lived with to this point...not to mention controlling

Well, we know it is quite a bit heavier. To help make it competitive, the government changed the max load rules... but only for electric trucks. If those loads are OK on our roadways, then why not OK it for all trucks. Normally you would have to get permits for an overload. There are safety concerns and then the ability of roadways to hold up to the burden.
