If it’s a smoker, might be right. If a gasser it’ll be less.

If we use solar power, it’s cheap and plentiful.

You can but the money you would save in fuel would be offset by the cost of putting an electric motor in the truck. I saw one that burned corn as a source of fuel-- then used the smoke to fuel the engine-- If I was that handy I thought it might be fun to try something like that
