I don’t really care what they look like. If any truck actually could meet the promises these made, I’d buy the shit out of them:
-All electric
-Sophisticated sensor suite to improve operational safety
-Working performance comparable to F150
-low maintenance
-Can be used as home power backup
-not a Deathtrap
-not a Killing machine
It hits the electric points, but that’s it. It’s a bad truck. It doesn’t fulfill any of the “smart” promises. Death trap killing machines in constant recall that can’t handle rain… Let alone do work.
The aesthetic doesn’t even make my list of complaints. It’s like the whole industry has been trying to make trucks as shitty as possible for like 30 years. Give me a '94 ranger electric conversion kit and it’s game fucking over cyber truck.
I’m definitely a fan of the Lightning, but it’s a huge truck, similar to a Raptor in length. It wouldn’t fit in my driveway. They need an EV Mavick or Ranger. (I’ve heard rumors of a Ranger PHEV, which could be a game changer for EV towing)

How can it be a death trap when it is only found on flat beds?
So what about the F150 Lightning doesn’t meet that? It actually offers whole house backup which is something that caught my attention

Yeah he just mentioned “F150 performance” and it’s literally an F150. That’s what prompted my question.
It’ll be great to see them start coming out with smaller truck sized EVs.
Not in love with the “big boy” from factor but when I believe they’re going to enter “long term support” territory I absolutely would be interested.
