Looks good. Don't think I would buy the first year but looks like they put lots of thought into it.

Its time for me to think about something new, my raptor is coming up on 400k. I really like the powerboost f150 hybrid. best of both worlds in a pickup

Sounds interesting...but so far only available as a 4 door, short box, grocery getter. My version of a work/snowmobile truck is a 8' box Regular Cab F-150 Heavy Duty...If they wont/don't make them in that model, I would never get one.

You must live close to the hill. Need a back seat to throw gear in and dual purpose for hauling friends when not recreating

Why is there a 100$ deposit and then wait 2 years... let me know when this pos is available for a testvl drive at the dealer and i might be interested. Chance are good there wont be any chips or parts available and could be waiting a while before you see one in real life....

So is it safe to say that Ford will likely bring and all electric pickup to market before Tesla does with their cybertruck?

 

[Lunch_Box]

Best looking electric truck so far. Still not capable enough for what I need out of a truck but a good step forward.

I don’t think the f150 will be out before CT. The Rivian will be the first to market.

Canadian pricing is way too high with a 80 cent dollar compared to US pricing.

Ya don’t need a back seat if you have a Truck Boss deck and a Smart Boxx...that combo keeps everything clean, dry and accessible. My wife drives our truck a lot and a crew cab 8’ would be way to long of a wheelbase for her...she has a spacial awareness problem sometimes. Lol.

Whats the Smart Boxx?

 

[FernieHawk]

Whats the Smart Boxx?

It’s a sliding equipment box...has three rows of roller wheels supporting it. I’ve had it full of gravel loads a few times...no failures yet.

Someone will buy one, put big mud tires on it, light bars and a 10" lift kit, take it off-roading and get stuck because the battery died, i can see it now. lol

They will carry a generator in the box...lol

I like the On-Board scale system...that would be cool. Any other trucks out there with this type of setup?

 

[mikeydoo]

The raptor has been a really solid truck overall. 6.2l has been really good. just thirsty lol. Its like a mustang goes fast fun to air out and bag around in. NO PAYLOAD. Kinda useless if you want to use it like a truck is intended. I did notice on the lightning in one of the photos it has about 6" of ground clearance around the front axle. That wont work for me, would have to have to be lifted. I can see myself stuck like fack trying to hunt and and ice fish. On the other hand the competititon system i could put in that would rock the world.

She thinks it's bigger than it looks? Good for you.
