Convenience issuesFor regular commuting and running errands, EVs can be incredibly convenient. If you live in an area with a robust public charging presence (not everyone is that lucky), then you can just charge your car while you're at the grocery store. Better yet, if you have a garage or home charger, you can just charge at the end of the work day. However, if you rely on your truck and its inherent truck-ness for work, the EV drivetrain might lead to more problems than solutions.If you are just traveling short distances over the course of a work day, then battery range likely won't be an issue. But if you're driving hundreds of miles a day from job to job as an electrician, plumber, or other tradesperson, then an EV truck's 250-300 mile range (a little over 400 miles in Rivian's case) will get annoying very quickly. Filling up at the gas station takes five to 10 minutes. Recharging at even the fastest DC chargers (if you can find one) will have you twiddling your thumbs at a charger for 30-40 minutes. That kind of delay simply won't work for many people in the trades.
