Do these trucks actually drive themselves into a warehouse, and back into an empty spot? Can they actually navigate cities? Or only on the interstates? What kind of loads are they carrying? Can they navigate mountain passes? How much of the entire trip is actually automated? They never answer any of these questions, and make it sound like they can drive anywhere, any time. But it seems to me more like they are on predefined routes, limited to certain destinations. Maybe even someone picks up the truck at an off ramp and drives it into the city. That's not a bad thing, but they are so sketchy the way they don't give any details. It makes it hard for me to believe half this stuff.

See Waymo. Answering these questions will make the investors run away.
Basically, a highway is the best place for selfdriving cars. Cities are difficult even for selfdriving cars (Waymo).
