Another attendee just confirmed it's a toolbox sized battery.

Range extender would be a flat pack that slides into the bed.

It needs to be that area to fit enough batteries for the extra range.

There's a possibility that there is enough height under the bed cover to store it there.

A rental model would be cool.

If I had to guess, this will be a $15K-20K+ option

Tool box would work as well, but would be fairly large.

It will be heavy, so it needs a crane to lift it.

I don’t see how 130 miles is possible in a tool box.

Business opportunity for the more enterprising?

so we are talking about 400 pound battery in the bed. you would need a hoist to remove it.

Truck Tool box, not homeowner tool box.

30-40 kWh battery is going to weigh at least 500 lbs, probably more.

I'm not saying it can't be done. But road vehicles that are designed for 80+mph are a little bit of a different story than tractors. Belly mowers, 3 point hitches, universal skid steer plates, etc have also had a long time to standardize and work out the bugs.

If so, I’m out!

Awesome. I need this, but mostly just for winter. Easily removable for when you don't. Sounds like a great solution.

Drag it up the ramp with the winch.
