“FORD F-150 LIGHTNING STANDARD RANGE INCREASED TO EPA-ESTIMATED 240 MILES"

240 miles? That's an "increase"?

And how many hours does it take for a full charge? Surely more than three minutes (gas fill-up).

Ford needs to steal the lead from Tesla and make their own "charging pools," er, "charging dumpsters." They will be a nice place to cool off while you are boiling mad about the time to recharge. Don't forget to toss a swim suit into your tool belt!

Does that take into consideration the morons who will use the battery to power their campsite?

It’s like people who use their phones to listen to music while they are out hiking in the mountains. When something happens, they don’t have any charge left to call for help.

Somewhere on you tube there is a video where someone took one of these trucks and hooked a trailer to it and headed down the highway. I believe the result was that it went less than 100 miles. The numbers that EV makers throw out are all based on unrealistic conditions.
