Exactly! A chassis is power agnostic.It doesn't matter where the power comes from.Squirrel-cage,rubber bands,solid-fuel rockets,baking soda and vinegar,it's all good!
I see no reason over all the controversy.The towing issue has only attracted attention to a retarding of technology in the trailer industry.Not BEVs.
Rivian will have no trouble being a 'truck.'
And all the tricks I used to extend the range of Tesla has been in the public domain since before the invention of the internal combustion engine.Michelangelo knew about it.
