Up next Wyoming Bill Proposes EV Sales Ban Published on February 13, 2023 Author Mike McGlothlin Tags #rescue, #semi, Diesel, Tesla, Share article Facebook 0 Twitter 0 Mail 0 Diesel To The Rescue: Tesla Pepsi truck runs out of charge Recovery Of The Week If we’ve learned anything from the relentless push for EV technology, it’s that diesel tow trucks aren’t going to be out of work anytime soon. Reports indicate this Tesla Pepsi truck ran out of charge westbound on I-80 and was forced to call in a tow. It’s unclear whether or not the 53-foot trailer it was tethered to was loaded with product or not, or if the EV semi truck was only out on a test run. Regardless, it didn’t make it to its destination. To add insult to injury (in the form of an even steeper tow bill), the wrecker’s underreach assembly couldn’t even get under the truck without first winching it onto ramps.
