Heavy Duty Electric Trucks are Coming...
I saw this article yesterday. An all electric truck with a 35,000lb towing capacity and a 5000lb payload capacity. They are discussing quad cab and dually versions as well. Range (unloaded presumably)...

Also battery costs are creeping down so it could be a lot less in a decade when you hit that mileage. Aftermarket is just barely coming on the scene for battery replacement.
The only thing I have not seen mentioned here is the cost of these battery packs when they need to be replaced.
