I'm like alot of you that thought electric cars are stupid but after a few weeks of driving these two I am convinced that I really really prefer them over gas or diesel. Musk has stated he is going to build a nationwide network of stations similar to the Buckees with a boatload of really fast chargers. You plug in and go inside to get whatever it is you want and in a few minutes you are charged. I'm convinced that these things are so good it will drive advancements in batteries, charging etc. I just wasted over two hours at the Porsche dealer getting it's first service. Driving it home I was thinking how much better the Lucid drove. I have made the decision to sell my Raptor and probably the Porsche. You guys know I'm a car guy. This is the next level in advancement. Musk is saying he will Have a Tesla 2 door sports car that will run 7's in the 1/4, go 250 mph and get 500 miles to a charge. Maybe we end up with enough electric cars and trucks that the cost of oil drops and gas will get cheaper. Competition is always good. That 670 hp unit that the guy is holding in the video is basically engine, trans and rear all rolled into one.
