I want power density and off-grid capability in my truck. I want to be able to go camping and not plan for charging. I also want to be able to repair it without dealing with software. I also want to be able to tow without stopping to charge every 100 miles.
Battery energy density and the huge amounts of energy required to tow or haul heavy, un-aerodynamic loads.
