Researching new piston cooling technology at this time seems a bit too
late since it's going to be an electric world shortly.

Electric may make inroads into commuter cars, but it will not be
replacing diesel any time soon.

I'll make you a bet. Within 10 years time, electric trucks will have
replaced diesels. The loser has to fork up 5 cents.

How will they get a 20 ton reefer load of frozen cow parts from KC to Houston then
from Houston to El Paso in the same truck leaving 4 hours later with 20 reefer tons of
frozen veggies then from El Paso to KC with 20 reefer tons of onions 4 hours later?
It's about 1000 miles each way.
What powers the reefer pumps?

Battery power might be good for around town Houston but won't get me to Dallas.

Or a trailer full of batteries. No room for the frozen cow parts.
Weight limit of 80,000 lbs.

It took Solar Impulse 2 years to fly around the world using solar
energy, proving it can be done but also showing how unfeasible it is.

Looks like diesel or coal is the way to go.
