Current battery tech limitations are why some people are pushing hydrogen as an alternatives specifically for long haul trucking.

Even after taking things like embrittlement and leakage into account, it's probably the best liquid fuel alternative until we can improve battery/capacitor tech to the point it's a non-issue.

Improving battery tech will take time.

We can start mounting hydrogen fuel cells for an all-electric drive-train today.

"But hydrogen is actually grey hydrogen! Why do you hate da urth?"

Fuck you. EV electricty isn't 100% clean either and you're letting theoretical perfection (not even real perfection, you fucking wankers) be the enemy of improvement.

Heavy batteries on big-rigs is a bad idea.

Elon should have been laughed off of the stage when he first unveiled these fucking piece of shit trucks.
