I hope Bill Gates is watching this. He once said electric semi-trucks would never happen.

When I talked to Gates in person, he said “experts tell me a long range electric semi truck is impossible”. However, when I asked what his assumptions were about battery energy density and vehicle energy consumption per mile, which are the two numbers needed to determine range, he did not know either number! I also offered to let him take one of our semi trucks for independent testing, but he declined. Not sure what more I could have done. 🤷‍♂️

Gates wanted the semi tech for himself but is very far behind in research, that’s Gates poker face. Literally acting dumb right before you have a breakthrough. Keep talking to this dumbass he’ll try to bankrupt you. Gates is Sam Altman 1.0, a conceded privileged liar just like his early mug shot. Steve Jobs was right about Gates stealing Apple for Microsoft OS.

Maybe a Tesla semi can deliver Gates his Epstein-recommended Valtrex.

Which once again proves that people like Bill Gates and Mark Cuban are really rich and that’s about it….

I’m a heavy-truck driver. I’d try this. I’d even run it day to day. Sorry, Bill. 😄

When’s the last time bill gates was right about anything? His claim to fame was stealing software and running a monopoly licensing of it. Why anyone gives a fuck about his opinion is crazy.

Go read his book, " The Road Ahead." I don't think he got anything correct out of that.

gates was wrong the same way everyone whos never driven a diesel for 12 hours is wrong. the math only works on paper until you actually build the thing

Gates said "never happen" in a specific context. Is this a production model or just a demo?

Nobody cares about Bill Gates opinion, he made his multi millions from someone else’s invention.

Tell the the whole truth. These trucks are solely to pull trailers in and out of docks and parking spaces. And I would imagine are very nice to have, given the exhaust cloud, loading areas have.

Crazy that THE climate change zealot couldn’t imagine a world with an electric semi. The emperor wears no clothes…🙃

Sometimes “never” has a pretty short shelf life Technology has a funny way of proving people wrong. The real question is whether electric semis can actually compete with diesel on range, payload, charging time, and cost. What do you think are they finally ready for the long haul?

We really didn't deserve Elon. We needed him, but we didn't deserve him. He's basically fucking Batman. I mean, it wouldn't surprise me if he never sleeps. During the day, he's doing Elon shit - rocket ships, self driving cars, saving free speech, freed Willy. By night? Batman.

Best way to get Elon to do something is to tell him it can't happen or it'll never happen and just sit back everybody else eats the popcorn while he does it

eh, Bill Gates just probably told you that because he was inspiring you to crack that code. He's kinda got that "grandpa" energy like that, right!?

I hope Elon lets us know where he stands. With statements like "the cost of electricity per mile is much less than the cost of diesel, especially in these crazy times", in one breath, and breaking bread with the tyrant responsible for these unprecedented costs of diesel next...

👌It's gonna be the best. The most phenomenal. Everyone will want one. We're going to call it the Trump Truck. Even the people at CNN will want one. I've done such an amazing job. No one could do better.👌

Gates said it was impossible, didn’t know the numbers, and wouldn’t get in the truck. Someone is jealous of Elon!!😆🚀
