Besides the range economics, if the trucks come with automatic emergency braking, lane following, alerts when cars slow, and even a rudimentary self-driving functionality, the insurance might end up being cheaper once the rates of accidents with these trucks is compared to other trucks. And if trucking companies can more easily recruit people who want to drive these trucks, that will also help the shipping / trucking companies as well. Hard to say if the maintenance costs will be lower or just different (if you end up needing to periodically replace battery packs for example) -- but it definitely seems likely that many trucking companies would be interested in trialing these to see how the economics work out. Another detail that could be interesting would be if you own a chunk of land in basically the middle of nowhere but has an interstate going past it. You should buy that land, build a huge solar farm there, put a giant charger station next to the road. You literally are not even connected to the main grid at all, just a little power oasis in the middle of the desert for example for trucks to charge / power some convenience store / maybe even a small hotel.
