Electric Sport Utility Truck

360 horsepower and 472 pound-feet of torque.

After years of work and months of teasing, Bollinger Motors has unveiled its B1 all-electric sport utility truck in its home state of New York. The first thing anyone will notice about the B1 won't be its newfangled electric powertrain, but rather its old-school looks, which includes a classic three-box design.

It rides high, and its big mud tires immediately signal that this vehicle has off-road capability, while its minimalist styling and flat surfaces speak to its utility. Inside, the B1 has sealed gauges and polyurethane-coated floor pans. If the interior gets dirty (and we suspect it will), it can simply be hosed down.

I probably would but then everyone is just going to assume I have a small penis, so maybe not.

Sure. It seems to be on of the few new vehicles made specifically for recreational use. New Jeeps have to many bells and whistles. Wish they made some stripped down like this. Love the all weather interior and minimal look. I won't buy it, but wouldn't mind test driving it one day.

But if you are out in the wilderness, and you run out of juice, you're screwed. At least with a gas vehicle you can bring gas with you.

Its better for everyone to think you have a small penis then to pull it out and they would know you have a small penis.

I'd have to see the back of the vehicle first to make sure it's Truck Nut compatible.

I actually like it. No issue with battery powered cars as long as they're powerful (looks like this one is) and I don't have to plug it in every few miles. How far can that thing go (at full speed) before I've got to find a plug or whatever?

Never mind, hell no. I'm not stopping every 120 miles.

And plenty of room on the rear window for me to dedicate it in loving memory of my MawMaw, plus my Salt Life sticker.
