A recent survey shows not all Canadians are ready to make the switch to an electric vehicle as they have concerns about charging stations, cold weather and battery life.
Because they are >$60,000 toys! The Lightning pickup weighs 3 FUCKING TONS it has a 5.5" box and seats 5 people!?! That’s just a minivan but worse.
If something like this actually comes on the market and doesn’t stay speculative vaporware I will buy one without a second thought. It’s small, has a 6 foot bed, weighs under 2 tons and a 400km range (which is WAY more than you need if you charge every night). Not as efficient as a commuter car but still better than any combustion vehicle AND it can carry all the groceries, beer crates and top soil that I need.
A Ford Lightning is one of those trucks that people living in cities and suburbs but who grew up on the edge of suburbs or in the exurbs while being hyperfixated on masculinity and “rural roots” drive. Theres a whole fleet of these things with ICEs. They’re what the dad drives in SUV families.
I thought the lightning was just an electric f-150. How is there a fleet of lightning’s with gas engines?
