Don't forget rumors of a Ford Superduty EREV:
Too bad the Lightning Switchblade (EV Raptor) is just a technology showcase and not intended to be production.
Taking this thought experiment a step further...
Looking at max driving range before I am stuck, if all I have access to is gas - no charging stations (probably unrealistic but thinking worst case for an EV noob like me that has no experience with charging stations on the road).
Lets say if I...
So lots of discussions, but most seem to talk like there is a one size fits all - i.e. it only works one way. I would like to see it have "modes" like my F150 and a lot of other vehicles these days. Something like this:
- "Eco mode": might reduce acceleration or use only some of the motors...
I don't tow often, but when I do, it'll be a 16' open trailer with a Mule or a load of mulch (generally only a few miles), or a 26ft Surveyor Legend 240BHLE camper (5100lbs unloaded, up to 5800 lbs loaded, plus ppl and gear in the bed - so figure up to around 7000lbs max). 200 miles to a...
Brother-in-law has an F250 with the first gen tailgate step, and that was awful (grab bar folds to the inside of the tailgate and collects dirt and hooks up on everything). My F150 has the 2nd gen, with the grab bar that slides into the top of the tailgate - big improvement. I do like the...
I'll ask this knowing that these aren't details we probably know yet (or don't have full details for yet), and with the caveat that I've never owned or ridden in anything like a Rivian - I'm coming from a traditional ICE F150 - but there are certain things that seem trivial, but I've come...
So here is a question. Say I run the battery to zero and the tank to zero. I fill it up with gas, but *don't* drive it. Can I basically park it and let the generator run to charge the battery up, while sitting, not draining the battery to drive the electric engines (say, it I park at a...
I don't know if my view is unique (don't think it is), but I want something that will replace my F150, be able to pull a trailer/camper on long trips without having to stop for extended periods to charge. But at the same time, I like the torque and acceleration of an electric truck, but have...
