You are correct, the bipartisan bill doesn't address the tax credits.
But I am still under the impression they are committed to passing the budget reconciliation bill around the same time as the bipartisan infrastructure bill. But the timeline is still a mess in general. From what I've...
The current federal tax credit doesn’t matter between ER AND SR battery, however some state tax credits or rebates like NJ do.
I’m not sure how often the state rebate programs get updated. If the federal EV tax credit does get changed or expanded, then you’ll know in October as the house has...
You Reserve, and ultimately will place your order, through a dealer. If you went to the dealer, they would essentially do the same thing you would be doing from home on the ford website.
Ford can't directly sell you the vehicle like Tesla does.
Interior wise, beyond the 15in screen, the F150L should be identical to the ICE F150 so whatever kids seat setup is there should translate.
When deciding between ER and SR batteries, daily driving is usually the primary consideration. However, your climate is also a factor. Battery performance...
Who was your original dealer? I am placing mine through Bob Davidson near Towson. So far I confirmed no ADM, but just asked about the deposit so waiting to hear back from them.
Slowed down the video to 0.25X at 1:50 and noticed that it says 230 range @ ~90%. Must be a SR battery, which is a little interesting since many of the YT pre-production cars have suggested to be ER.
For those in MD, I sent out a few emails to Bob Davidson Ford and heard back from the Sales GM. MSRP is the max they will charge (No ADM), but X-plan is unlikely.
Edit:
Also wanted to add $500 non-refundable fee to place order.
I think battery degradation over time is the biggest reason to go ER over SR. Every case is going to be different, but knowing that your capable of going, for example, 270 miles over 200 miles in 5 years (making up the numbers) is probably worth the ER battery.
