“The 2023 F-150 Lightning will now range from $47,000 to $97,000”

What in the world would make the high end trim $50,000 more?

Incorporating a 30 year marital amortization, “high end trim” costs significantly more than $50K.

Size of the battery pack.
The battery cost is typically a YUGE percentage of the vehicle cost.

I’m rebuilding a 1948 Chevy 3/4 ton. Will have a 420 HP 350/5.7L, a 4 speed automatic 700 R4, and yes, disc breaks. Total cost will be about $16,000 and yes it will be Highway geared.

I guarantee it will still be on the road 100 years from now.
