haven’t seen a post or heard about thoughts on this truck. Looks promising.

Vaporware until further notice. Rivian is the only credible one.

This and Cybertruck are hype dreams and years away from production.

tacoma body with a dodge charger front end and chevy headlights?

I think it looks pretty good, but I would think you would get tired of yelling, "VROOOM, VROOOM" out your window whenever you are driving.

I think it looks Great. Has an aggressive Raptor type look. Not too fond of the interior. Also has the GMC 2500 wheel well lights. I believe the Raptor type front lights are a DOT requirement for the width of the truck

600 mile range would be best in class.

i would definitely be interested in one if the range is accurate.

Will probably hit the market before the Rebel TRX

I have a clip from running my belt fed MG that would be perfect to substitute for having to yell “VROOM, VROOM”. Just run it on loop.

They would need to solve the lack of hydrogen stations. I doubt they can build something similar to Tesla’s supercharger network. Nothing beats the convenience of gas stations.

Cant really say best in class for range though. Kind of in a class of its own, both hydrogen and electrically powered. Of course, if it actually comes to fruition. They did open their stock as an ipo a little while ago.

On paper it looks good. In reality they made an IPO without having an actual vehicle or even a plant to build it. Supposedly they have broken ground in AZ for a manufacturing plant. If they are able to stay funded and move forward I am betting 4-5 years minimum before one is made. They other option is they are bought by another manufacturer.
