Maybe. But companies who pay for them will primarily care about cost. They might be apprehensive of the suitability of a new drive train for a bit, but once they have field data that an electric or hybrid work truck is cheaper over the lifetime of the vehicle, they will buy them. When the ecoboost f150s came out, there was a few years when they gave us the option to have the V8, then they just made everyone get the more expensive, but more fuel efficient ecoboost.
