Stopping for 20 minutes total a month for diesel isn’t much of a deal breaker. On an already long drive an extra hour of charging can be very annoying.

Eventually, but I don’t see 400 miles in a day on an electric sleds in my life time. Where I live internal combustion is an absolute must. It heats our homes, gets your truck to remote areas, powers your ATV or sled once you’re there or lets me take my boat or plane to places where no roads...

It also not uncommon to ride over 100 miles in a day which electric sleds can’t do. They’re even less capable when ridden and sat outside in the 0° night (on a warm night) while camping, hunting or ice fishing. The near silence is kinda fun but so is ripping around on a 150hp two stroke.

Lots of stuff that shouldn’t need to get fixed in a production vehicle and should have been sorted out prior to release.

Yes massa, wise and knowledgeable are you. Thanks for contributing to the discussion.

The same loud as any other v6 at 5k rpm, not too bad since it would only be for a limited time. Full rated output is 130kw, towing a trailer at 1mi/kwh means the generator has to run at about half output to provide enough energy. I’d take that all day over stopping every two hours to charge for...

The V6 powers a 130kw generator which is more than enough to keep up with demand. I haven’t seen anything saying it can’t provide enough energy.

Just embrace the dirt and get whatever color you prefer. A dirty car will always look dirty but a silver car will never look forest green.

I’d suggest replacing it with a 20 year old beater until you learn how to drive. Maybe don’t post for the entire world to see that you’re a moron.

As an American built vehicle it should use standard white trash American pronunciations. Get some ja-lop-en-os in your case-a-dila.

Did the gen 2s get that much of an increase? Gen 1s were all right around 1600lbs. It can handle more weight but it’s not designed for it or legal in many states. Edit - a quick search says the gen 2s did in fact get a fairly significant increase in payload with the dual motor and smaller...

I’ll take 50° below zero before I’d take 100° any day of the week.

Shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone that a truck can haul wood. It can’t do a lot of it with a small bed and low(ish) payload but there’s no reason to not make it work for a living.

As long as they aren’t Honda/Aston Martin F1 engineers.

It all depends on how large of a capacity battery pack you have. Unless you already have one it’s probably a lot cheaper to carry a small generator and a gas can or two.

It’s what places that don’t get very cold in the winter use on the roads.

They will price themselves right out of the market if they try and charge nearly $140k for a R1 tri/quad. It’s simply not built well enough or at a quality point to be worth anything close to that. At the current prices it’s very questionable and only slightly justifiable because there are so...

The R2 is about as much of an off-roader as a Jeep Renegade. It has some ground clearance and can manage some rough forest service roads but you aren’t rock crawling or doing serious trails in it. It’s built to suit an image that sells not for serious work.

I wouldn’t worry about it. The 3PMSF is a joke and solely there to market tires. All it means is that tire had 10% better traction during acceleration on snow than the standard tire and doesn’t test anything with braking, cornering, ice, etc.

You need a neutral bonding plug. Easy to make from hardware store parts or to buy if you want.
