Look at all of the possibilities.Bollinger Motors

The world needs more electric trucks. They're versatile, usable, customizable, they look cool — and because they don't run on fuel, they're even better.

And if you want an electric truck with endless possibilities for customization, Bollinger Motors' upcoming all-electric, chassis-cab truck platform might be what you're looking for.

It's called the Bollinger B2 Chassis Cab, and the company said in a Thursday announcement that it wants to sell the truck in late 2021. Both full-cab and cutaway-cab versions will be available.

Anyone can buy a B2 Chassis Cab — pedestrian casuals such as you and me, or people who need them for commercial purposes, like landscapers or construction workers.

Sure, it's not available yet. But we can dream.
