Ford is increasing the starting prices of its electric F-150 Lightning truck by as much as $8,500 due to “significant material cost increases and other factors.”
CNBC reports that Ford said on Tuesday that it would be increasing the starting prices of its electric F-150 Lightning pickup truck due to “significant material cost increases and other factors.” The automaker said that the price increases, which are between $6,000 and $8,500, will not impact customers who have already ordered the vehicle and are awaiting delivery. President Joe Biden infamously test drove an electric F-150 in 2021. Biden shared his opinion on the truck, saying ““This sucker’s quick.”

Call that 1965 Pontiac station wagon — The Beast.
That’s just crazy, isn’t it?
#55 and to all others. Fill up your gas tank in 5 minutes!
The F-150 with 4 gallons has more energy then the electric version of the F-150
Living in a coastal state I fully expect we will eventually have a mandatory hurricane evacuation that will result in a slew of these battery cars being abandoned 300 miles from the evacuation area they left because they either could not find a charging station, the charging stations were backed up with people waiting to charge up or they just plain old didn’t have time to charge the battery before the storm hit.
And that’s just ONE scenario why this technology is stupid.
Not a big fan of Hannity but he did himself a favor and had Charles Payne last week.
Payne breaks down exactly what’s going on with this BS green energy bill and EVs and it’s worse than I thought.....a TOTAL scam that’s actually worse for the environment than ICE vehicles could ever be.
Start at the 1:20 mark
Unbelievable
You’ll appreciate this story...
We were doing the annual extended family vacation week on Ocean Isle NC in ‘96 when Hurricane Bertha rolled thru. The island was evacuated and family members disappointedly headed back home. We chose not to go home. Since the hurricane was heading north, we decided to take Hwy 17 & I-95 south until we saw clear blue sky. That happened around Savannah...and we wound up spending the rest of a beautiful week on a very deserted Tybee Island.
The one thing I will always remember...Hwy 17/I-95, heading south, was absolutely empty. Heading north...it was a friggin’ parking lot. Bumber-to-bumper traffic going nowhere.
Imagine being in an EV when your battery died while in that mess.
I like Charles Payne! Thank you for the link.
My pleasure.
Also, Tybee is a secret.....dont tell anyone else. Lol! 🤫
