Anyone actually using these evs?

Hey folks, I'm hoping to hear from anyone who’s been using EVs in their fleet. How do the vehicles hold up? Has range been an issue? TIA.

Hello, I have a couple of EV delivery trucks in my fleet, and it’s been a pretty rocky transition. There are nuances to driving this type of EV that needs to be familiarized with, and the charging sync and ‘handshake’ between vehicle system and charger port can and should be stabilized more. I’m feeling it’s still relatively new and these issues will eventually be ironed out. I’m positive for the future, it’s not as simple as simply swapping out a combustible vehicle with the EV, one will just have to be prepared for the switch, and the expected issues that will come with newish tech.

Interesting. How did you get started with the trucks? How long have you been using them? Some of my buddies and I talked about the evs but we're at a loss of how to get into them and if they would even work for us.
