We all know gas prices are ridiculous right now, so I want to replace my car (truck) with an electric vehicle. One I build myself. So in this video, I try to crank the electric skateboard volume knob up to 11 and build an over-the-top DIY electric skateboard (actually it's a longboard) capable of replacing my truck. It off roads. It goes scary fast. It has a surprisingly long range. But is all that enough?
