Everyone remember that Tesla truck project?

No, not Cybertruck (lol). The other one, the older one. TeslaSemi, the one that was supposed to revolutionize logistics?

    Pepsi has been shown to be effectively using these electric Semis by moving Frito-Lays potato chips / lightweight goods around.

    So I think Pepsi did prove a useful, albeit small, niche here.

    That’s one smart way around the weight problem. Move stuff with very little weight / made up of mostly popped air.

      Imagine how many bags of chips could fit in the Tesla semi if they didn’t only fill the truck 60%? Oh well, they have a practice and have to stick to it.
