> I've also know some trucks used in mines that don't even need charging. The electricity generated when descending with a full load is enough to power the empty truck back uphill.

Mines tend to be underground, or then a big hole in the ground, so the truck would be going uphill when fully loaded and down empty, no?

Unless we're talking about a mine up on a mountain?
