Epic Deal on TWO GMC Hummer EVs: 1800 HP Shop Trucks!

Securing EV Truck Deals

• 💡 The speaker explains how they obtained two electric GMC trucks (Hummer EV and Sierra EV) through a combination of stacked, publicly available rebates and a local electric company credit for brick-and-mortar businesses.
• 💰 The deal was structured as a lease, with the total out-of-pocket cost for a three-year lease being around $15,000-$15,500 per truck, effectively making them very inexpensive to drive when factoring in no gas or maintenance costs.
• 🤝 Arie, a friend and fellow EV truck owner, secured an even better deal on a Silverado EV, paying only $6,100 for a three-year lease.

Hummer EV Features and Experience

• 🚀 The Hummer EV is highlighted for its impressive acceleration (0-60 in 3.3 seconds) and unique features like "Watts to Freedom" mode, which unleashes 1,000 horsepower.
• 🛠️ Notable features include quad T-tops, Super Cruise (hands-free driving assist), all-wheel steer with a "crabwalk" mode for maneuverability, and an extract mode for increased ground clearance.
• ⚠️ The speaker notes some reliability issues with the Hummer EV, specifically a malfunctioning electronic rear window button, requiring multiple dealer visits.

Sierra EV Features and Comparison

• ✨ The Sierra EV Denali is presented as a luxurious alternative with a large glass roof, a massive touchscreen, and a comfortable interior.
• ⚡ It offers "Thor Hammer mode" (similar to the Hummer's Watts to Freedom) with around 760 horsepower, though slightly slower than the Hummer EV.
• 📦 The Sierra EV boasts a versatile bed with a multi-function tailgate, ample power outlets (110V and 240V), and the ability to charge a house, along with a bed that can extend significantly when the rear wall folds down.
• 📈 The Sierra EV offers a longer estimated range (around 470 miles) compared to the Hummer EV's approximately 300 miles.

EV Truck Race and Performance

• 🏁 A race between the Hummer EV, Sierra EV, and Silverado EV demonstrates the surprising speed of these electric trucks.
• 🏆 The Silverado EV, driven by Arie, wins against the Sierra EV, with factors like lighter wheels and higher battery percentage contributing to the outcome.
• 💨 The Hummer EV is exceptionally fast, achieving 0-60 mph in about 3.5 seconds, comparable to early R35 Nissan GTRs, but is noted for its inefficiency and significant range depletion during aggressive driving.
