This is a huge market to tap though and the perfect venue as the vans provide the perfect setup with a pancake battery for maximum cargo space and a big roof areas for additional "not really green" solar panels for additional charging. This is the perfect application for electric vehicles if the costs are reasonable and offer a cost saving basis both short and long term over ICE

meh....its still very debatable if Tesla can truly support the commercial market. If Tesla could make a full-size pickup to match up comparably to the F150 or Ram 1500 or Silverado for daily grunt use AT REASONABLE PRICING, then GM/Ford would be really concerned about their future stance in the EV commercial market.

That Cybertruck ain't cuttin' it for the mainstream & commercial markets.
