I don't disagree that electric motors have 100% of their torque available at 0 RPMs. What you need to keep in mind is that that doesn't last forever and the more weight you add to the equation the less it lasts. Especially if you're talking about going up hills and what not. The recaptured energy can only be stored so much as it's not limitless and it's not like you always brake while towing/hauling. Sometimes you have long stretches where you don't brake at all. Throw in some uphill pulls and you can see why it would be a difficult task to create a Hybrid Tundra.
