Good looking truck. If it has the quiet half shaft feature I’m in. ?

Considering their current roll out is slow they need to concentrate on the task at hand.
You are talking about Fisker, a showman. The fact their roll out is slow is exactly why they are trying to give the press something else to chew on (again). Telling them they should do something else is like telling your dog to “stop being such a dog”.

Hope they pull it off! Looks great in the very limited images online. More electric trucks = goodness.

If you actually believe that Fisker will start building these in 2025 for $45k, I have some prime Florida real estate to sell you.

I don’t disagree, but I’m preparing myself for a raft of comments like these:

“Rivian’s roll out has been slow, but COVID! Supply chain! They will overcome their production problems! Be patient. Can’t wait for the R2! Also, Fisker will never overcome their production problems.”

I think they’ll eventually get Foxconn (or whomever) to make it, but not for the $45K starting price they’re teasing.

Looks better than the lucid gravity. Vaporware otherwise

They’re not getting my deposit until I see a website with a quad motor max pack.

I’d also demand CarPlay, but Fisker is pretty anti-CarPlay, with basically the same talk as RJ.

I would have said “beach frontage in the Mojave”. So you’re saying Fisker’s promise is plausible? ;)

I went to the site and I was looking at the Ronin and got all excited until I actually clicked on the link, saw there were zero specs and it was 400K. Yikes.

I was going to consider a Ronin reservation, as that could be fun, but $385k is slightly out of my price range.

The Alaska could be interesting though. I wish there were more details and specs, but at least the design looks good. I assume that bed area will change before production.
