I think I remember reading somewhere that the pick-up truck would be based on one of their existing frames.

I would imagine that the new roadster will also share a frame with the Model 3 (assuming it's a different frame from the Model S)

I would be very surprised if this was a pick-up truck ala a Chevy Silverado and not a pick-up truck ala the Honda Ridgeline. As in, it will be a cab with a bed, but will be built with a unibody chassis instead of body-on-frame. Independent suspension all around instead of a solid rear axle.

I really can't imagine Telsa trying to compete against the F-150.

--edit changed "won't be a cab with a bed" to "will be a cab with a bed"

He said semi-truck, not pickup truck. Very, very different.

You must have missed the part where we're talking about a Tesla pickup truck. Because we're talking about a Tesla pickup truck right now.
