At some point we'll start to get miles/kWh data in and get a sense for what is more efficient.

All that said, my use case for a truck is hauling a boat to the lake, or getting materials from Homedepot, yard waste removal, or camping. None of my use case involves traveling hundreds of miles at 80 MPH on a freeway.
I'm presuming that the CFD/ wind tunnel testing was conducted with the tonneau cover closed over the vault, as the Ram 1500 eco, and RIVIAN R1T would have had.
