It'll be a few years before this comes over as a RT hand drive truck and it's a radical design that will put many off. More scary perhaps is the thought of manually parking this in a UK car park.BUT 250 mile range for £40K with options up to 500 mile range at £65KThey all come with 110/220v outlets and in-built air compressor for doing work around the lad or camping.Stainless steel hardened body supposedly scratch and dent and bullet proof.Serious height adjustment for off road, 6 seats with legroom/headroom for giants0-60 under 3 seconds at the top of the range

200,000 orders too apparently - would you buy one?
If you cant beat 'em then at least bugger 'em about a bit.

I wouldn't - looks horrible.  Imagine the non kudos driving that thing
Always have been, always will be, a WYSIWYG - black is black, white is white - no grey in my life! But I'm mellowing in my old age

don't fall for the hype - that's $100 fully refundable deposits, not actual sales!

I must admit that it;s growing on me but the biggest issue UK would be parking the darned thing. However consider the issues of tools being nicked from plumber's vans for example.. it'll be pretty nick proof as a whole vehicle and with the sentry mode system recording all sides it'll be  better as a deterrent for nicked tools.
If they'd made the bed a  little larger so it could take full sheet materials it could easily have become van man's favourite environmental option (strings of them hogging the fast lane intimidating german cars).
I guess 4 years to a rt hand drive version UK and fashions change..there'll be more radical designs by then on the back of this.
I'm still waiting on the roadster with sub 2 sec 0-60 and 600 mile range.

Not for me I dont think.. it looks like one of those school design competitions for 9 yr olds where they promise to produce a version of the winning design.
Also, when you wind the window down you are going to hurt yourseelf on the pointy bit of glass that'll be sticking up.
If you cant beat 'em then at least bugger 'em about a bit.
