I think EVs are a great commuter if you live town & drive 50-60 miles one way to work & electric trucks delivering locally in large cities, but in my opinion the technology is still lacking for driving cross country in either the cars or trucks.
There's a lot of truck stops that are just getting CNG systems up & running & that's been around for years. How long will it be before truck stops across the country will have a 100+ charging stations set up at each of them? I can vision 100s, more like 1000s, of trucks along the interstates pulled off with dead batteries trying to go from Chicago to LA waiting to somehow be recharged.
Speaking of CNG (compressed natural gas), also in my opinion, is much better solution than EVs. It's inexpensive, it's clean burning, it's readily available & most any vehicle, gas or diesel, can be converted to use it. Most big cities mass transit systems & municipal vehicles have been using it for years.
