That looks wildly impractical... and dangerous.
Why aren't there laws protecting the market against these things?
Like some regulatory body should go "this is not okay, you can't make cars over this weight and size" ?

Like this doesn't even look like a car anymore.
This looks like a vehicle you would need a special reason to by, ei at work we need to transport x,y,z or something.
This isn't a personal car, for transportation anymore.

O_O  wtf?  at 6:00 in the video.

27,5 miles pr galloon as a goal? (for cars) and that is only 11,7 kilometers pr litter gas.
Your trucks only need 19,5? I'm blown away.

Here in europe we want small efficient cars (gas is expensive) and we aim for like 25+ kilometers pr litters (58.8 mpg).

*edit:

The loophole omg..... medium/heavy sized trucks are do not need to hit "54,5 mpg standard".
So they make them big and heavy on purpose, to avoid regulation???

edit2: Some of your trucks are at 12 mgp? ( that's like 5,1 kilometer pr litter of fuel...)  
This isn't "tank" levels of bad but... why?  I can't even imagine how hard parking would be with one of those big guys.
I still don't get it.... I can't accept it, our life style and the roads we have here.... there's just no way it works out.
Not to mention what we pay for fuel.
