I need that after looking at the Amazon truck!
One has to be driving a lot and have a vehicle that gets crappy gas mileage. Somebody that drives 15K miles a year and averages 20 miles to the gallon at $4 per gallon is only going pay $3K per year for gas..
Musk is still part globalist.
At least someone looked at something Youtube of mine.
Granted the vast bulk of anything photo or video goes to stock agencies. Youtube stuff is once in a while.
“Musk is still part globalist.”
Everyone is “part” globalist.
His F350 doesn’t get 20 mpg.
I may have to eat crow. There does appear to be a big aerodynamic penalty for a square front end. The basic F150 Lighting with a listed range of 240 miles has a 98KWH battery..
What battery are they using?
I missed that, but he does if he gets a business tax deduction..
The smaller EV pickup getting 240 miles with 84kWh battery seems to compare, IMHO, with the F-150 Lightning (larger pickup) getting 240 miles with 98kWh battery. The Lightning is larger/heaver.
I agree..
Looks too much like the EV Scout that VW plans to build.
36,000 moles plus per year, formerly 28 mpg at $3 to $4 over the years it was driven was $4500 per year. That same 36,00 miles in my model 3 would cost me $720 if I had to pay the retail 8 cents per kWh in Texas that’s at 250 watt hours per mile, I have been averaging 180 lately. It’s free for me mostly since it charges off solar panels above it paid off years ago. I take it to Austin at least monthly sometimes every weekend in the spring and fall outdoors season to my Austin condo or lake house in centex. Houston every 6 weeks or so. I am averaging 25K per year on the Tesla vs 36K for the Volvo remote sat data from rigs post covid makes the difference.
Point is I was spending $4500 and now if I had to drive the same distance it would be $720 really less I upped the energy use vs what it has been averaging. Mind you the payment on the Tesla is half what the Volvo was over the same 60 month note period.
Agree, I had a 81 Toyota SR 5 pickup, great little pickup, they do not make them like that now.
egads that screams metrosexual

You never miss putting stupid comments on EV threads.
I think you need to get a life.
So you like the looks of that abomination huh? Figures- and how is an opinion about the looks “stupid”? Please explain! I said nothing about functiona,ity or failures of,evs- seems to me you never seem to miss an opportunity to defend evs and are overly hyper- sentsitive in defense of them! Get a life will ya?
And I also notice that you spend an awful lot of time criticizing and insutting a lot of people on fr! Do you find that you need to boost your ego by insulting freepers all the time or something?
“and how is an opinion about the looks “stupid”? Please explain!”
It was stupid because it was false and only posted because you want to insult anyone or anything associated with EVs regardless of the truth of your post.
Hyundai has a 1.6liter thaey could do that with...though they have fumble badly with the venue . Make it a a two oerson cab, barebones it and it will sell.
