Thanks for the first hand info. Too much of what we read about these vehicles online is smoke and mirrors.

Like most innovations, there are pros and cons. Whether or not it is good for you should be up to you, not some government bureaucrat. Choice is good.

Personally, I would like to see a whole variety of options - hydrogen, ICE, electric, natural gas, diesel, whatever! Different technologies could better fill different niches. Electrics might do better in urban setting with shorter distances and where pollution is more of a concern. Diesels are better where torque is needed, like towing and plowing. There is no “one size fits all” solution and we should quit pretending that there is.

Thanks. I agree with your thoughts.

I think hydrogen could have gone a not further if stations
had been built to serve them. It’s a good technology.

As for diesel, the hauling capability is good. I will say
that some of the electric trucks out there or are soon to
be out there, are reported to have some amazing numbers
also.

Take care...
