Just got the order email (zero hour res.) but maybe running isn't the word we should use for EVs? I do apologize for forgetting this forum has a dearth of good humor.

If you ask us? Nothing. ;)

Just wait until you see the "influencers" get them...

I'm not surprised. EVs are based more on political lobbying and leverage than classical economic principles. The EV F150s will go to the big metropolitan areas where the politicians have spent taxpayer monies for "green" lobbying. Ford won't take into account where the reservation holders live...

Wine growing as farming, lmao I live the idea of proving their utility with farming, but... this is a joke of a dog and pony show for CA (SF, Bay Area) Lightning buyers. They probably didn't get as many reservations from that area as their Three Marketeers predicted and this is the best idea...

You think they would've made the cord nicer like a 50 Amp reel on an RV.

Okay Zach, how many of these need to arrive? ;)

I wish I could have heated and cooled seats with the XLT Sport cloth seats. Also. The odds of Rivian making a decent vehicle with QC better than the atrocious Teslas look pretty bleak.

This is the key to the scheme. You might as well buy a piece of paper that says a star is named after you.

So, who is coming out with a kegerator for the frunk? Two pony kegs could fit, yeah?

I expect Ford to go back and only allow Commercial/Fleet buyers to order the Pro because they want a foothold on the potentially large orders. I want a loaded XLT Sport version, but I may have to go Lariat.

Great post, thank you! I think, for my sanity, I would stop at campgrounds every other charge if I could.

I'd like to think I'm my dealer's highest priority and will be put in first, haha.

I think using campgrounds to recharge every few hours might be the only way to do a long towing trip and that would add several days to any decent trip. My guess-ti-math is: 180 miles is the maximum range for towing. You're looking at a more likely 10-stop halfway and 20-stop cross country...

Just rambling on a lot of flack Ford has received about their release dates the past few years: Fall doesn't end until the second half of December and it always surprises me that so many people think it's over before December just like Spring goes later than probably most people on the street...
