Why *not* suggest or wish that EVs replace ICE for every task? Yes, the right tool for the job (thought you didn't say that), and there are probably tasks that an EV won't make sense for, but the use of EV should be maximized. It may be that the technology for many of these tasks is too costly,

My *light* truck cruises at about 15kW at moderate (60MPH) freeway speed, measured for both a Chevy S10 and an older Ford Ranger, so a generator with 15kW continuous output should be able to keep the pack from draining further and re-charge during times that the vehicle is not continuously cruising

There is no point in suggesting or wishing that EVs can or should replace ICEVs for every task. In fact it's counterproductive. ICEVs are the right choice for the long haul. EVs are outstanding for light commuting and ESPECIALLY for stop-and-go short trips. Short, never-really- warmed-up trip
