Thanks for the clarity!— But still... why would an F-150 Lightning have so much body (be that big)? Wouldn't the extra weight of the body reduce the ability of the battery? Idk, it just seems inefficient. Hopefully this next vehicle will compensate against the aesthetic of over-compensating? Who honestly needs to, "haul tons daily" VS "just getting around, with the occasional load"?
I don't understand the appeal, but I guess let's see what they're willing to build/sell for $30k? I personally wish it to be practical
There is no reason for trucks to have grills so tall mechanics now need stepladders. It's all just plastic to sell road intimidation.
