Preorders in 2027. No photos or real feature reveals.
Somebody not bezos should make small EV trucks
Yeah, I’m staying the fuck away from Ford or at least the next 5 years. They outsourced all of their design shit to AI and then had to higher engineers back.
If it’s electric, why is the hood tall? There should be no need and it is a danger to pedestrian and cyclists.
The kid killer bumper is a feature, not a bug, apparently
You think pickup buyers give a fuck about pedestrian safety?
I agree for the most part, but not ALL pickup buyers. I actually need a pickup, with 4x4 and a full size bed. It’d be nice to also be able to see where the hell I’m going. I think my only option is to buy a truck from the 1990’s.
Sounds great. Can I get it without spyware?
Fuck no.
State of Charge channel on YouTube did some research (and speculation) and believes the battery will be a 51 kWh LFP.
That would mean the likely range on a mid-sized pickup (depending on the aero, wheel size, tires, etc.) is about 200 miles or less.
It is also confirmed to be 400V architecture. So its likely to be fairly slow charging (compared to the best possible charge speeds in recent EVs).
Informed speculation for those who are interested.
I hope not. I’ve taken my extended-range Lightning halfway across the country and back, and in certain areas you need all that range. I can’t imagine having 200 miles or less, but then maybe they’re explicitly not aiming at this being a vehicle you can use for taking the family on a road trip the way that the Lightning is.
I just want a kei car, or functional public transportation, or sidewalks with trees over them.
“Childslayer 5000e” would be more fitting
Gotta keep that grille big and manly, especially to make up for the fact that it’s electric! The lives of a few children are inconsequential compared to that.
My brain immediately substituted Chrysler for that. Still works.
The MSRP listed is almost the same price a new Maverick starts at. Now let’s see if they actually produce enough to meet demand to keep it at that MSRP, or if this will be just like when the Maverick launched and the dealers tack on another 15-20k due to scarcity.
I’d consider this for a trade in of my hybrid Maverick, but we will see when it’s fully revealed.
How doesn’t it tow, and what is the cargo capacity? To me trucks are about work. I hate 4 door trucks because to get cargo space compromises either length or need space. I had one before and it was not fun to drive but I used that full length bed. I have need to haul a big trailer as well. If it is the family I’ll drive a car. (Spreading of cars, I want a tiny car as they are so much more fun to drive)
That’s kind of a cool name. Odd choice for a pickup, though.
Why is Price X + “Delivery Fee”… no if I cannot avoid the fee then that should be in the price. $28,350 + FEE ($1,595) = $29,945 this is the price. Why is it always smoke and mirrors with cars?
The US auto industry lobbied many hours and many dollars to set up protectionist laws so that startup companies and foreign competitors were at a disadvantage. These have been the laws so long it hurts.
The Slate startup is doing the same thing, unfortunately. Price was announced as $24,950 and then later the $1450 destination fee showed up in the fine print.
Why does it look like it was wrapped by my drunk mother that forgot about my birthday?
Recall announced in 3…2…1… 😁
Who is this for?
If you buy one you can give it to anyone or keep it for yourself. You decide.
People who can’t fathom a Ford lasting more than 4 years.
You missed a change to play in with the number 6
I was interested but reading the article quickly ended that.
I really want this to be good, but the fact that they aren’t showing any of the specs tells me the specs are not going to be that impressive.
