I think I understand "burrito heat recovery cogeneration". What is "pissed off Francis formula"?

Indubitably.

Not sure what taking the ratio of payload to tare weight achieves. I had a Type II panel van that weighed less than a ton with a 3/4 ton payload, while the Clark Cortez motorhome I once had had a tare weight of 7500lb and a payload of 800lb.

With range — an electric vehicle weighs just as much when exhausted, while a fueled vehicle is lighter by the weight of the fuel.
