About 5 years late. There's an analysis somewhere that shows the unladen weight vs maximum capacity (US specific) and the Tesla trucks fare very poorly. They simply weigh too much relative to cargo carrying capabilities.
Don't get me wrong, ignoring the 'less cars on the road'' argument (Electric is still better than more ICE) I'm all for electrification, but just like motorbikes on the other end of the spectrum, I just don't think it's quite there yet.
On the other hand, gotta try though.
