One of my favorite reviews so far, just because they're having so much fun. Good to see the XLT Standard Range does not disappoint!

Agreed - I enjoyed this one too. Even seemed to make some doubters into believers.

Haven’t no experience driving an EV before, it’s a crazy experience hitting the acceleration in it, and I only have a standard range.​

my wife has probably said no less than 10 times,you’re going to get in trouble in this thing. It’s deceptively fast and the insulation is so good that there isn’t much road noise. It’s legitimately hard to go slower than 55. It just wants to get it up and go.​

"1 pedal driving is for Off Roading"
What?????
First of all of the guys weren't spoiled, they'd realize, really off roaders had 3 pedal driving, clutch, brake, gas!
1 pedal is a relatively new thing to off-road vehicles.

Fun review!

Ford has that as part of their fleet "Ford Pro" package.
