If you are going up a long grade such as Donner
Pass eastbound or the Grapevine (Tejon Pass) in California, could you
make it to the top with a 20 hp diesel, a relatively small battery,
and a full load?
Sure! Can a fully loaded semi make it? I'll take a couple of
slow vertical runs per year if I get 60 MPG (vs 20) generally.
If I commuted over such a pass, I probably wouldn't choose such
a vehicle.
