[QUOTE="Chris, post: 421324, member: 1"] Yes, weight is a big issue. The Tesla Model S is almost 5000 lbs. However, you'd never, ever know from driving one. The instant power makes up for it and you never realize you're driving around a heavy pig. To me, range is still an issue. If you tell me I can get 300 miles of range from my Jeep (mixed driving) that might be fine for a local wheel spot, but if you want to do any sort of overlanding, camping, or a weekend wheeling trip, it's going to be impossible in most cases. I think electric vehicles have their application, but I think we are 30-40 years away from where that application will include off-roading. [/QUOTE]
