I never intend to buy an EV because they simply do not align with my driving habits. I wouldn’t have purchased an electric F-150 but if Brandon is against it, maybe I should reconsider. Nah.

I'm very happy with my 2016 F150 CrewCab. It has the EcoBoost V6. I run only ethanol free fuel in it. We have had multiple days of subzero (-16F) weather this year. Ethanol is hygroscopic. Nothing like ice destroying your fuel lines and fuel pump. That aside, I've managed 32 MPG with the wind to my back and worst case 18 MPG driving 80 MPH against the wind.

The charging stations in the Walmart parking lot are never used. I see an electric car from out of state about once a month. They are a very poor fit for southeast Idaho.
