What a waste of life she is. I'd call the cops too. Its fixable but it is a shame that there are random jerks out there that will damage your hard earned possessions.

This seems worth mentioning. Ford is DEFINITELY on path to launch an all-electric F-150. Question is will it get to market before the Rivian pickup and the Tesla pickup.

9/10 says she's an illegal alien.
Guy loses his Camaro due to frame damage and is stuck with the $1k deductible. Shocked it had that much damage. Couldn't imagine being in his shoes. Lost your car and you gotta pay for it due to someone else's ignorance and inability to do things legally.

Hard to imagine that GM doesn't have something in form of an EV truck they are working on. Part of me wonders if an EV mid-size isn't a better first option, but then again the FS trucks are the better sellers, so there's that. Back to this Ford...I wonder why they even bothered to put the camo on it at all. They could have just simply used the current truck without camouflage and it would have been less obvious than this truck is. Makes me think it was done on purpose to gain attention.

EV Truck's - for those who don't use their truck as intended.
Good luck keeping a charge when putting it to work.

My opinion, but I think the best option (and maybe most expensive unfortunately) would be a hybrid where there is a battery capable of taking the truck to 40 - 50 miles of range (with an electric motor or motors driving the front wheels) but then a good ole V8 powering the rear. There would be different drive modes which would include an option where the V8 is always on and in use, versus the gas saving mode which would only turn on the engine when the battery power is depleted.
yeah I know...heavy and expensive, but it sounds good to me.

We camp without power a lot, I pull enclosed car haulers further than the charge will take me in one direction. So yes, a hybrid setup of some type would be best...although GM's hybrid variants from the last gen didn't seem to sell very well?

So essentially a Voltec Silverado. And I agree.

And I'd integrate the electric motors into the transmission like in the Volt (as well as other hybrids) rather than using hub motors or otherwise driving the front & rear axles differently. Probably a more versatile system, and in being a high-capacity Voltec powertrain it would probably easier to develop than some other completely new system.

They have enough brains these machines it could know when it's weighed down. With a manual override, of course Adding cylinder shutdowns it could idle all day (for heat) and move slowly around the site if necessary.
