But you also should know that motors are controlled with high frequency voltages. That sort of RF actually travels down the material's skin rather than through the core. This Aluminum, being lighter, can also be made to have a larger surface area. You would get a kick if you knew what I do for work and fun.

Agreed. Fuck cars. But if you just gotta have that big monster truck, go with aluminum core motors. Less mass means more acceleration. There's less inertia.
As an example:
By weight (mass) aluminum is about twice as good a conductor as copper. This is important when they are hanging high-voltage wires from towers
Not my words. You're wrong. The problem is 1) enamel coating research. 2) the strength of the material. Aluminum that is formable into wire is just darn soft and can easily fracture from bending. 3) I would say is the issue with not being able to solder to it. It has to be crimped connections which may fail due to corrosion. But all these are fixable problems. Aluminum is a conductor that is on par with copper for usability, and it is way more abundant.
Give me an example where you think you got the upper hand on aluminum knowledge. LOL. Yeah it's harder to work with. But it's lighter and metallurgy has very little to do with the reasons why it's not used. I'll wait here while you go scrambling through Google's shitty results.
Use Aluminum! There's nothing about copper that at this point aluminum couldn't really do.
It's only 14,000 dollars and my first born female next of kin or better? What a deal!
But I mean, it doesn't matter if you can't carry a single 2x4x24ft lumber from home Depot to your house or from the lumber hard to home Depot. We got the main roads for that so big trucks can do that. Just commuting yourself from your house to work and back is enough.
In Amsterdam I got to see lots of little human powered delivery vans though. Mostly DHL. It was awesome to see. So it is doable in flat locations for sure.
Imagine Marlboro man doing this... Then riding into the sunset just before he feels the need for a cigarette 🚬 and then boom! Horse parts everywhere mixed with guy parts. Meanwhile a car driving through the near street gets rained on with pieces of the good stuff... anus, balls, penis, and skin with bloody hair on it as well as eyeballs, fingers and other parts easily recognizable to the layman. That's why you never top off your horse!
Wow the cybertruck is huge! How are you supposed to park that thing?
Oh crud!
I also almost forgot about our good friend Carbon.

Yeah it's properties are also shit.
