Im having a hard time believing truckers unanimously chose a center position seat.

I know a few truckers and they are 50/50. They agree it would give the best view, and help with right side blind spots. But they also agree it could be a problem and it would take time to get used to it after all the years of driving. They all said they need to try before giving a final answer

Truckers did not chose this, old dogs don't like a whole lot of things industry is putting on us with the tech boys. You can get a driver to say what you want them to say, but that doesn't represent the cross section, but he gets to feel important.

A center seat may slightly help with the right side blindness. However it creates significantly more blind spots on the left side.

Yep, there is a reason there are only a small handful of these trucks out in the wild... It's BS. You can't even train someone, one seat? I don't drive trucks (only box vans) and that setup already looks ridiculous, and that's ignoring the single company they have a couple trucks at... ( Without even looking it up I'm sure Pepsi and the snack company they are used at are connected).

@@Alex-ce8ln I'm not a hater, I'm a truck driver. And I say it sucks. Touch screens are a cost cutting measure. Suicide doors get in the way of coupling/uncoupling. Center seat sucks for any reverse maneuver except a straight-back. And worst of all, I could have specced it better. Why no super singles to save weight? Why does it have 1000 HP when 700 is already overkill? Why not make it single-axle to excel at hauling light-loads like potato chips and wiggle wagons?

Check out Edison Motors. They build arguably superior electric trucks. They've already built 1 or 2 prototupes, and recently completed their first production truck. They're also designing a converston kit for 3/4, 1 ton + trucks, designed for WORK, and FIELD SERVICEABILITY.

The Silverado can't pull an excess of 82k lbs, tho. If that's the case, the Silverado would probably have a 50 mile range. This semi is supposed to do 500 miles while hauling a max load.

This is where they spent the Cybertruck’s R&D budget. Elon is like a rich nerd (oh wait!), he has too many things he would like to be the master of and he’s aced none of them! He has too many Yes! Men around him, nobody to tell him the truth. Great concepts though! Elon would be great at a legacy automaker or apart of a team where he isn’t in a lead position but where his ideas are heard without bias.

@@RxPharmer you can't fit 25k lbs of chips in a trailer! I used to haul sections of "Megatron TV" screen pieces in boxes and my large box truck filled to the brim was still pretty much empty weight wise. Moving those pallets was effortless. And potato chips are even lighter! That's a truck of air. The trailer weighs more.
