This is a wonderful idea. A self sufficient truck with the only complain that is is too quiet. Not too shabby.
Trash trucks have intermittent, low speed use, and sit all night for charging during off-peak hours!

Combine the two of them, electric and hydraulic and you have a win - win combination - save for one thing, is Ford really owned by ”Big Oil” and only interested in doing business on their terms in America? does somebody out there know for sure?
I was actually not aware about an eco-friendly truck. The silence would really be a problem for the people on the road.
