A Starship having to land and takeoff again is very old-school and very energy inefficient.
Just have Starship non-stop fly by and pickup the stranded vehicle and then drop it at a Tesla Supercharger or Tesla Service location.
In reality the Starship will probably be flying to fast to make...
Usually it is technology not yet mature that determines "too early" but in this case the technology was on time (late 1990s/early 2000s)and could have scaled. The technology was NiMH batteries which were used in the later made EV1s, Honda's, and also in Toyota Prius non-plugin hybrid.

Here's how the death of GM's EV1 was the catalyst for Tesla
In this episode I provide the history of the GM EV1, General Motors' first car that was designed from the ground-up to be electric. It was born out of the emission requirements they expected...
The analysis was not done by (Electrified, Dillon Loomis). It was done by "Forward Cap".

Google Self-Driving Car Project/Waymo has spent many more years on autonomy than Tesla and more money on autonomy than Tesla and Google/Waymo has less to show.

RADARs/LIDARs can not read painted traffic signs, detect color traffic lights, read electric digital speed signs, read electric digital text signs, and may more required.
There is also a cost consideration. There are 60-70 million vehicles sold every year, these vehicles are operated in varying...
Tesla pure vision approach (like 10s of millions years of land animal navigation of the physical world) using 8-12 cameras VS competitors dependence on cameras PLUS minimum 4 RADARs/LIDARs PLUS Hi-Def maps (all cities, towns, rural roads, parking lots, highways, etc) PLUS all the Hi-Def maps...
Yup, this is the problem with Waymo & Cruise approach.
But the problem is not just the rural areas. There are hundreds of cities/towns in U.S. that have 1 million people or less. How is Waymo & Cruise going make Hi-Def map all these places, keep the Hi-Def maps up to date and make a profit...

Wyoming peoposed EV ban is dumb and would backfire on them just like Britain leaving EU (BreXit). Just because it is a colossally bad idea does not mean they won't do it.
Wyoming is not the only U.S. state that is talking like this, Louisiana is another. There may be more...
I have been to Wyoming many times. Rolling coal is not the worse they can do to you. The Wyoming EV owners better watch where they drive because there are humongous sized mining trucks there where the mining truck could drive on top of the EV and you would not be able to see the crushed EV under...
We mostly know where “San Andreas Fault” is located and those who want to avoid it can.
Tornados, hurricanes, hail storms, flooding, wildfires occur all over central, eastern, northern & southern Texas.
All I am saying is Texas is far from the safest U.S. state from natural disasters.
Texas...
Yeah Texas, don't worry about the tornadoes. Just fluffy dust swirls.
Or the storms with baseball size hail or both tornado and baseball size hail, Yipee.

Another factor is getting the fabrication equipment from suppliers. IDRA and other equipment suppliers can not overnight double or triple production of factory machinery that individually takes months to make.
Yeah, maybe cargo truck is supposed to mean semi truck tractor. Maybe source of info is a native Spanish speaker so there is different translation issue.
Tesla Semi fabrication has started at Spark, NV plant but maybe the ramp of Tesla Semi will be done at Mexico plant instead of Austin.
