Interesting but it takes up a lot of bed space unless you remove it entirely. The flipping and rolling tonneaus usually only take up about 6 inches at the front of the bed. I do like that this one can be slid back and forth to access different parts of the bed.
I kind of like the BAK Revolver roll-up hard tonneau. Takes up little space when rolled up, locks down along its full length for security and seems to be among the most weather tight. It can also be easily removed. Is even available with T slots for accessories like racks...
I like the split tailgate as well. Being stature limited, it lets me reach further into the bed. It also lets me get loads on pallets all the way into the bed with the forks on my skid steer without having to shove the pallet off the tailgate and into the bed. Taking the tailgate off is...
I will hold judgement till we have real numbers but I am not optimistic that EREV towing capacity will be close to BEV if for no other reason than the Harvester engine is hung behind the rear axle. This shifts vehicle balance off of the front axle much like loads on a trailer hitch and results...
We have a Volt that runs on battery most of the time. The gas engine still takes maintenance and the intervals are surprisingly short. All you are really eliminating with the range extender compared to an ICE truck is the transmission and drive shaft. And you add a generator since the range...
My son has had a Chevy Volt for years...original range extender. For him it works well because, while most of his driving is within 30 miles, he does fairly frequently travel to see friends 150 miles away which is when having the ICE engine generator makes for a convenient trip.
However, since...
In addition to wheelbase, turning radius is also determined by the maximum steering angle of the front wheels. The Silverado EV non 4-wheel-steering versions actually aren't as bad as might be expected because of a large front steering angle. In the absence of an official specification, I would...
Just dubious about the performance while on the gas engine. Own a Volt. Very practical but limited performance when on gasoline. Fine for light load cruising on level ground but strains somewhat on grades. Not sure the Harvester would tow very well or handle extended grades when loaded.
I would...
