The truck can most certainly be amazing. But guess why the range is so low? **They have to skimp on the batteries to not make this truck weigh 8,000lbs.** Battery tech is just not cheap enough and light enough to make them comparable to petro-vehicles. If you want a quiet, nearly-emission free, fun vehicle, get an electric car. Especially if you live in a city and are not too far from work. But if you need to do any amount of long distance driving on the weekly, you should look for a petroleum-based vehicle. If you care about the environment, get a natural gas vehicle. Seriously.
