Nope. Anyone who buys an electric pickup truck is going to regret it.

I know the flux capacitor costs a lot more, but will it at least have a 1.2gW instant charging system?

IMHO the only practical range extension for a BEV (battery electric vehicle) is a hydrogen fuel cell. Thus, it'd be a hybrid BEV and HEV.

But if you instead put a gas or diesel powered engine alongside an electric motor (making it like a plug-in hybrid only with a large enough battery and electric motor to be all-electric for at least 200 miles), then the end result is you're depending on both an electric motor and an internal combustion engine. In other words, more components to break down.

But a hydrogen fuel cell is at the end of the day just another electric power source (albeit stored as hydrogen and converted to electricity as needed) that can power the same electric motor that a battery does (or charge the battery so the battery can perform longer). Thus a hybrid between BEV and HEV is a better range extender than a hybrid between a BEV and an ICE car.

It’s rumored to start at $45K, plus the house plus the charger:-)

Coming soon, the new Dodge Lamb!

In a few more short years, buying a truck, much less and EV truck, will be like paying a mortgage on a frakin house........

The incredible new E-RAM, now with Deep State Kill switch! /s

I’m holding out for one of those Chevy Spark EV pick’em-up trucks.

Do they have Cummins 6.7 EV’s yet?

[T.B. Yoits]

Dodge is going to name it the "Brokeback Mountain Edition".

Being electric, it's real quiet and won't scare the sheep when one sneaks up on them.

Electric or not, I wouldn’t touch a Dodge with a ten foot pole these days. Used to be a Dodge fan, and owned several, but their quality, which was never great, has gone downhill. Once I bought my first Honda (an Acura), I never looked back. Every Chrysler or Dodge that I ever owned was lucky to make it to 100,000 miles, with the most common failure being transmissions. My 2005 Acura TL, by comparison, is still going strong, approaching 300,000 miles and runs exactly like it did when new. No loss of horsepower at all, and the transmission has been bulletproof.

I keep my cars well maintained, but that never seemed to help the Chrysler products much.

Fine, as long as it has a 5.7L Hemi on-board charger.

[Mark]

Is it fire proof?
