If those track markers are where I think they are then my leaf with the battery at 38% and 46F, air temperature 42F, wet roads which is rare but realistic, spare tire, jack, Dewalt 1/2 inch impact driver, evse, 100 feet of 12 gauge cord, various adaptors, 50 feet of 3/8 steel cable, tool bag, standard weapons package appears to be significantly faster.
Their handeling test wasn't very confidence inspiring.
So far it's living (which is a surprise) exactly up to expectations (not a surprise).
When they build the thing knowing they don't need an anti sway bar, then are like "we need an anti sway bar" it exposes their hubris. I wonder what else it's lacking.
If gas hits $4 a gallon this might have a chance.
