Saw 2 this last month in a 80k town. They don't look half bad.

Seems the 300 mile range is the opposite of what forum EV experts claim. Instead of being less than 300, its more. Ford's electric F-150 range estimates are very conservative | Engadget "A full charge would net about 459 miles."

Up to 70,000 preorders already Ford is investing 30 billion in EVs now. Yeah this isn't going anywhere. Neither is gas/diesel but options are good.

Right, big guy with a big truck name calling on a forum. Cant even read an entire post without getting butthurt.

Apparently, you didn't even read my post. I made it very clear for some people this option wouldn't work. The circumstances are different, I get it. I went out of my way to say that, yet you took it as an insult somehow. "omg you dumb derp! EVs suck!" I get it man, bad liberals, biden, etc. You...

Damn you put 60000 miles on a truck per year? That's roughly was 5x per week a 220 miles a day. I understand there are people that need the extra range like you for long trips I get that, but most people are just full of shit bitching about range. I would bet 90% complaining don't even put...

Well, I don't remember many people hauling the OG lightning either. It had a gimmick and it was good at it. I would suspect this is even better/cheaper/faster. I do a fair amount of driving sometimes I just don't do over 200 miles in a day, and if someone does, the person in the market for this...

$40,000 starting price and that's before the federal $7500 rebate. You're looking at a brand new truck for low 30s with 430hp while you drive by the gas pumps. Maybe I'm not a fan of using the lightning name but whatever, it's not like it's some slow truck. Even the base extended cab would...

Loving the hate. That thing is badass.

Damn good points. This is very much unlike the leap in technology of the past. It's not incremental and its across the board.

They say lots of things, all talk. Outside of California, the vast majority of Americans will be pumping gas and diesel for a long time.

This is a different point. The issue is you're thinking of the mass adoption. "Omg we need new power plants now!" When the reality is 80% of Americans are still don't even understand how electric cars operate. It'll take decades to be mainstream issue outside of California. But yeah, the only...

Crazy to see the variety of craft too, and the navy says they saw them every day for years....

Nobody? Lets hear some numbers on pricing for those stations then. Do you know what it costs to put on a quick charge station for solid state? I mean even if you forget the quick charge time altogether then and take the longer range and extended reliability it's still a win. It's not like this...

I mean even if it's a 30min full charge that's incredible. Another study mentioned a longer range too in addition to these advantages. A long-lasting, stable solid-state lithium battery: Researchers demonstrate a solution to a 40-year problem
