      I was going to say the same, but I think the point of this car is not to even be fast, just obnoxious. And what is the biggest antithesis to a silent electric car? A loud ass Cummins tractor engine. The VW would likely be too tame to really get the point across. As they said, it’s about noticing and making a statement.

      The real calculation is how much rainforest in Asia was cut down and how much diesel was burned to mine the nickel and lithium for the batteries. Batteries are very CO2 intensive to create. In fairness, while a Tesla (and any battery powered vehicle) is significantly more CO2 intensive to manufacture, they are net CO2 winners vs. fossil fuels over the course of their lives. Be that as it may, electric is not the pure environmental savior they are made out to be. That and America does not have nearly enough grid capacity to handle widespread rapid EV adoption.

      @@craighoffman8160 Volvo did a research about electric cars vs. ICE cars. Electric car needs to drive 70k kilometers to be clean, when ICE car makes 150k kilometers before it reaches amount of pollution electric car production made. So at the moment, imo, ICE cars are better deal for environment. And in all honesty, when electric car reaches 100k km/60k miles, it's usually the end of its life cycle in most cases. Yes, there are some cars that drive more, I'm saying they don't but it doesn't equal out at the end for whole EV scene. Unless they'll come out with better batteries that makes less pollution to produce and can be recycled as whole, it's not a great alternative for our environment. Hydrogen cars are more environmental friendly but I guess nobody wanna pursue it except Japanese Toyota.

      @@omega1575 I don’t care about those pricks. I want a white fully loaded Model S with a Cummins 4BT and a tractor hood stack. I don’t drive much but when I do I want to have the most fun possible. Another guys said you can add a dry sump system to make it mostly fit under the hood. Seeing the way cars are going I think it’d be best to just keep swapping it into new crashed cars until diesel combustion is completely banned. These engines last +1m miles in trucks hauling around literal tons of food and supplies. It would never wear out in my lifetime just pushing around a Tesla body shell.

    I just finished a 4000 mile round trip to New Hampshire in my Texas truck, to pick up a truck camper from Truck Camper Warehouse (very nice people). I was cared silly I'd run in that white stuff that falls from the sky up there. Fortunately, I hit a 3 day window when the state wasn't snowbound, though I see you guys weren't so fortunate. Thought about stopping by to say, "Hi", but ran home instead when the phone said "winter storm warning". Got back in time to enjoy clear blue skies and 77 degrees on Christmas day.
