SIGH...here we go again with the misleading news releases, (first electric
truck, etc, etc).
If you have looked at the specs of this so called electric truck ( it is a
PIH ) you can see that it will probably cost a small fortune.
100kw generators, 150kw motors and 22kwh lithium packs aren't cheap. Don't
forget you still have a V6 ICE to include.
I doubt you could break even with an equivalent ICE truck even if the truck
lasted for 40 years.
It is another one of those things that can be done ( with enough money ) but
is not economically via-ble ( no pun intended).
