But why buy a truck that has such a narrow use-case? Economic situations can change a lot over the lifetime of a semi, and not being able to drive longer routes is a notable limitation.


Many trucks have even more narrow use cases than their range. Some are built specifically for particular types of cargo. Typically these trucks are purchased when the business has a specific need, and I suspect that this truck will only be considered by buyers with that specific need.


I don’t know. Probably the same reasons people buy small day cabs today.
