The issue is the whole
The issue is the whole concept of the weight of batteries and plugging the vehicle in to charge it. The manufacturers need to concentrate on a small diesel motor that turn a generator that provides electricity to smaller motors which propel the wheels down the road. As the owner of a 1999 F-250 I am not opposed to to the concept of a medium duty truck based on a diesel electric locomotive design. In other words, a truck that is electric powered without having to plug it in and it doesn't stop unless you turn it off or run out of fuel.
