they’re gonna be a hit with the people who’ve been buying them instead of sedans lately, but the fleet and rural markets are gonna be less inclined to use em and needing a big battery service periodically is gonna change the long term value proposition of a full size truck for a lot of people.
It’ll be interesting to see how it plays out. They do have some interesting utility. They can be used of power tools directly off the battery. The front trunk can allow for tool storage when the bed is full of whatever. They can be hooked up to your home to provide power during a grid outage. These are all pretty cool, but there will still be a lot of anxiety around running out of power, and the things you mention.
i’m skeptical about electric trucks.

I guess we’ll NEVER FUCKING KNOW because they insist on only making MINIVANS FOR INSECURE DADS.
I think you’re gonna find out very soon because four battery plants are in the works for trucks.
