More palatable, an electric hybrid pick up truck from Workhorse.
Apparently has a range of 500 miles.

I was wondering when someone would do that. The electric motor would
seem to be ideal for a towing application, as they can produce gobs of
torque at low speeds.

It's interesting that they took the series hybrid approach. That means
the electric motor is always what makes that thing go, unlike the Prius
where the two power systems share the load. It'd be interesting to see
how the two systems compare.

Yeah a lot like the diesel electric trains. The truck certainly has the
torque and HP.
