cougarfann888 Intervention Needed

And moving things around my property mostly but live 35 minutes from a gas station. So an electric truck actually might make sense for me since I sometimes make that drive just for gas.

Don't have possession yet, but Ford just sent me a picture of my F-150 Lightning

When do you expect it? That will be a fun day.

Within the week. Super stoked.

Not a truck.

Why “not a truck”?

Not a "100% useful truck" would be more accurate.

It's use-case dependent. Lightning would be great for a contractor who only does

Maybe, but it's hard to find a contractor that doesn't have the occasional day

What? It can tow a trailer like....

I brought this up to a coworker the other day and I've never seen someone get so defensive about anything...

I will say that my 1994 Dodge Ram couldn’t go much further

But how long did it take you to fill your tank and keep driving. For me it is

This is the issue. EV and ICE trucks experience the same MPG loss when towing,

Its not a truck because it should cost $120 to fill the tank... not $15.

Exactly! However, the only difference may be charge time vs fueling time.

Ktar

Hard to say which side is oddly more defensive.

Love the color

So much better looking than the Rivian.

So far it’s the only electric truck that looks decent. Even the new Chevy one

Hard to tell but is that Antimatter Blue Metallic?

TheLost

Smoked Quartz. I often confuse the two.

Jeremy

My car is antimatter blue. Looks cool in direct sunlight but otherwise it basically just looks black, which I'm

Yep, I love my 5.0 as well.
