I want one of these, but hybrid-electric with a clean hydrogen engine. Just to stick it in the face of the stereotypes that paint eco-friendly transport as being "boring."

Would you still need a CDL to drive this?

[–] CADmonkey@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

It would depend on what it weighs, if it's under 26,000 pounds it can be driven with a regular driver's license.

It looks like the poster truck for an article explaining how bigger trucks endanger pedestrians.

Shaq did something similar. I wish I could find the pic cause it was executed much better.

Would look a lot better IMO if the bed was higher so it lined up with the door and cabin

It would look better but be a lot less usable. It's handy to be able to reach over the sides into the bed.

Maybe if the cab were slightly smaller though...

if it works, it's not a fail.
