Enough where I learned a lesson and plan better.
So it's an extremely rare event that can be solved with a little bit of thinking ahead. Should that really be part of your purchasing decision?
I can easily extend my range in the woods by carrying an extra gallon(s) of gas..... Then fill up on the return trip home. That's thinking ahead......
Do you normally do 200-300 miles into the wilderness?
It happens often enough where I went and bought expensive gas cans....
I live in Montana. Nobody is more than a tank of gas away from a gas station without making very bad decisions. So you're either making shit up for the sake of argument or an extreme edge case that just isn't the target market for EV trucks. Which makes your idea of "realistic" irrelevant.
I had to move a crusty couch in 2016 for my buddy JD, I drive an F350 since.
