While the vehicle itself in use is "Zero Emissions", getting there is not!
To truly claim that "Zero Emissions" the electricity would need to come from either wind or hyrdo. The batteries would need to 100% recyclable without toxic chemicals, not likely to happen soon.

I plan to keep driving my F150 until a viable EV truck or MH becomes available.
Not sure I will see it in my lifetime.

IMHO...ICE or a hybrid of some sort
Same issues with an all-electric semi, but a semi has more room for batteries. Even in light of their higher GVWR/GCWR
Maybe if they standardize on a replaceable battery pack, but “they” most likely won’t work together
Just decided...going to rebuild my 1996 K3500, 7.4L Suburban, which is at +169,000 VERY, VERY HARD miles....Maybe it will go another 169,000 very hard miles
Do wish for an electric motor to stuff into my Suburban, as first few careers were in variable speed, electric motor controls.
