Lets look at this from the average Joe American perspective because I think some of you are thinking up problems just to justify your resistance to change.
The average American does not drive 250 miles a day. His car or pickup never leaves the metropolitan area he bought it in. So he is not worried about charge stations on the road. A home charge station in his garage will be enough. Add the ability to fly and rent a car and long distance travel is out the window.
The average American could care less where the electricity comes from or how it is made no more than he cares where gasoline comes from. As long as a steady supply of fuel is available at a reasonable cost who cares if it comes from a coal or nuclear power station.
The average American could care less how much it cost to replace the battery. No more than he cares how much it cost to replace the gasoline motor in the car he has now. As long as the battery/gasoline motor last the 7 to 10 years he will own the truck who cares what happens down the road. If the battery is not expected to last till the new car is traded in it becomes a maintenance item like a oil change.
One could say the overall cost per day of use would be a factor. Cost of truck with maintenance and fuel used included. But with the disposable income of today and what people are paying for new pickups this might be a null and void point. As long as the truck takes him where he wants to go and back home again with no worries all that other stuff is pointless.

Today's Featured Article - Hydraulics - Cylinder Anatomy - by Curtis von Fange. Let’s make one more addition to our series on hydraulics. I’ve noticed a few questions in the comment section that could pertain to hydraulic cylinders so I thought we could take a short look at this real workhorse of the circuit. Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
