EV's have their place in the world. Full-sized trucks isn't really their wheelhouse.
agreed. EV makes sense for city driving, second or third family car. But primary vehicle in remote areas or long commutes ain't for EV and not for trucks.
Imagine trying to take the eEV Truck to West TX deer lease for the weekend.
They'd make sense for service fleets but the range with any kind of load on them is insufficient. Far more efficient and cost effective with tax credits if it is driven 200 miles or so a day and parked overnite in a lot with chargers but if you need 1000 pounds of tools and materials you will probably have to charge it during the day also. The federal government is buying or leasing them as fast as they can be produced BUT they are replacin ICE halfton trucks that are never used to pull or haul more than one person. A tesla would be far more practical in that situation but somebody has to buy the Fords, why not taxpayers????

Most fleets that use the 100 air-mile exemption would benefit from switching to electric trucks for their 1/2 ton fleet. The saving in idling fuel alone is huge for larger fleets.

EV nut licking websites are one-sided, thus not credible. Find me some data from impartial sources.

The reason u dont see as many teslas as Rams is because of older vehicles on the road and living in a poor state for electric vehicles.
