    Who has ordered?

    The truck is a calculated risk. The design is well off the beaten path so they dont want the deposit dissuading you. A low deposit will attract interest and land more reservations. With the other models, they can charge more because they already know you'd sell your mom to get one.

    Who has ordered?

    Buddy just ordered one today. I am still baffled. If this had come out in the 80s after Max Headroom or Total Recall, it would have clicked. But all I can manage today is to be baffled. But I am not the target audience, I guess. Love the specs tho.

    Blog Bollinger Prices All-Electric Truck at $125K

    It really is a shame. While I will always be secretly pleased when other makers dont quite measure up to Tesla, I also feel deeply that it's our responsibility to embrace any company joining the EV community and getting more people off gas. Bollinger might make it in the long run, but this...

    Impressed that it has evolved so much while staying true to the original concept.

    Another Sudden Acceleration

    @umamahesh9999 Thats how mine happened. Customer service emailed me eventually asking for more details, google maps with the locations pinned, etc. but its been 2 months since the last time it happened. One thing a tech mentioned is to put in a bug report if it happens again to guarantee the...

    Another Sudden Acceleration

    That exact same thing happened to me a few months ago. Both car and squirrel survived, but it shook me. Nasty feeling getting the pedals mixed.

    Another Sudden Acceleration

    That would be something. Unfortunately, tho the shop had my car for 3 days, they never gave me any answer. I am not even sure if they got the logs or what they saw. They said the'd get back to me after further review when I picked the car up, but they didn't. But the mat issue is something I...

    Video: Driver left scene of an accident / Update: driver caught

    It doesn't look intentional to me. Stupid, but not intentional. Actually, accidentally stupid and then unforgivably stupid. Just a spectacularly bad driver with the morality of a 12 yr old on a joyride, which is just as bad as intentional. They should take her license away.

    Another Sudden Acceleration

    I have seen that, too. Often right after its turned on, it goes like a frat boy even when there's a car close in front. Always reminds me that until the Singularity, we are technically driving the car even on AP.

    Another Sudden Acceleration

    @Tam @Dr. J Could be that there's a creep adjustment/alignment that varies. My creep peaks at about 2mph (will do a sanity check later), so for me its only ever active for a second or two before I am on the gas pedal. Have not noticed a difference in how the brakes behave at all, but it is...

    Another Sudden Acceleration

    Yeah, thats how mine behaves. Regen starts as you ease off the accelerator so you slow down with your foot off both pedals until you get down to creep speed.

    @wk057, thanks for that. Very reassuring.

    Another Sudden Acceleration

    @Electric Dream the blackvue, once it's recording again, will cover that. It shows the speed. I'll have the front view cam on the windshield and the backview over the pedals (somehow). Then I just have to wait for it.

    Another Sudden Acceleration

    @commasign The universe would make so much more sense if I could just remember it that way. Every time I hear about these incidents I always think the people involved are the same ones who think Alexa is sentient. As a person who laughs at those people it's very confusing to have suddenly joined...
