    Harder maybe but it’s clearly doable. We have a number of options now. And it’s not like they’ve had to make them hyper-aerodynamic or anything. Just took a little more advanced battery tech.

      IIRC, according to Aging Wheels on YouTube, of all the electric trucks, only one (the Chevy Silvarado) actually manages to have decent range while towing.

      Think it might’ve been in this video? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UmKf8smvGsA

      I believe Ford has the f150 lightning, an ev version. I don’t know how it’s been doing though.

        No one bought them. barely 80,000 sold over three years. Killed in 2025. They sold 10X more F series every year. Really not sure where anyone gets the idea pickup buyers give a fuck about fuel efficiency or emissions.

        The all electric version has been cancelled in favor of a hybrid design, but they claim the hybrid has a 700 mile range
