An EV truck? How do you differentiate between a battery fire and a dumpster fire?

I saw one of those at a local Ford Dealer a couple weeks ago. The sticker price was $99,000.

Anyone who thinks an electric-only pick-up truck is a good idea needs to have their marketing team fired.

Just think...... congress just spent billions (with a B) for electric school buses made by companies who have never made electric vehicles.
We are going to put little kids on these. What could go wrong?

Maybe just a warning: Always part it outside, away from flammable shrubs and buildings.

I put a new battery in my Tacoma’s key.
CVS had a few of the one I needed and I had a coupon so almost free.
I got home and swapped a battery in . Dead fob.
2nd battery worked.
That’s the first dead out of the pack battery I can remember.

The company will continue to hold completed trucks until engineering and production changes are made. Just don't hold your breath!

Lowest bidder, what could go wrong? Back in the lae 1970’s Grumman, the aircraft company was the lowest bidder to build transit buses. Long story short, NYC pulled the entire fleet because they were thinking about saving weight and made things thinner causing frames to crack while driving down the road. Minor detail.

When the batteries go south, it’s basically worth its weight in scrap metal.

Who in their right mind would buy an electric truck?
