to the fully electric truck/cars
not only does the vehicle have very limited range, the batteries don't last more than a few years (4-5) in many cases,
before,the charge rate is slowed or greatly reduced , the batteries wear out and are environmentally toxic,
and very expensive to replace making a used vehicles resale price very low,
because the new owners needs to calculate added cost of new batteries as will anyone purchasing the car from him later.
example
my B.I.L purchased a used hybrid truck, the battery's were only able to drive about 2 hours max before they were running the gas engine almost constantly, he had purchased the truck to make local trips for his appliance repair business thinking it would save him on gas costs,
the cost to replace the batteries was quoted at $6700 and there was a 3 week wait, plus install costs so he sold the truck after owning it less than 12 months
