In the last 10 years our population has increased by over 20 million people. Our Grid and power demand has barely been able to keep up with that growth alone, as realized with issues this year, in California and Texas. That does not include the introduction of EV’s at the rates suggest by our...
I agree, all Government, local, state, or, federal, should not force the population into a limited market on any product. It’s not good for the consumer. Inform, but NOT force.
Yes sir, I’m gonna blame those that pay above MSRP! Those are in FACT the root cause of the rising cost of all goods. ALL those dealerships you mentioned can post the $30k ADM as they please. They will drop that price if NO ONE pays that price. So we’re back to this “Only the Rich and Famous”...
Snake, I do have this fear that this forum can influence dealerships to add ADM; “Why not, everyone else is doing it”. As many on this forum as already made claims, and warned the rest of us, to get the price, in writing, and signed, when we place the order. Does it really do anyone any good to...
Sorry this is where I got the information, although I don’t always believe everything on the inner web.

Ford sells 900,000 F150 trucks every year, so, NO it’s not surprising at all. And, there’s not many people paying over MSRP. So, yea, the F150 is/has been the best selling vehicle Ford has.
How many people on this thread are willing to pay over MSRP? Just how much money is the Lightning actually worth to you all? Let’s just start right now and tell ALL the dealerships out there how valuable the Lightning is worth and what the consumers are willing to pay. Yep, just go ahead and...
Sorry Dave you miss the point, currently my Power Boost, as good as it is cost me .15 cents per mile in fuel, I get paid .12 cents per kW for what I put on the grid, you sir are lucky as you are able to put 200% of your annual usage off PV that net you the income you speak of, me 150% and I’m...
I have batteries that can be tied in within an hour. The Lightning truck makes this task much, much easier. My cabin is connected to my solar and I struggle with the concept as Joe described. Maybe Joe is connected and doesn’t understand how the system does/can work in the event the power goes...
That’s not what he described, he stated; his panels were “not connected to his home”, but we’re connected to the grid. I agree grid tied Is the norm as in my case, but, in the event of a power failure, I CAN supply power to my home via my solar system where HE can’t.
Not to jump in on your discussion with Nick but, I’m very interested why you would invest in solar and NOT utilize the power that it generates for your own use. This is a very interesting concept you got there. I will have to say most people don’t do what your doing, as a matter of fact your the...
Not in my case. I definitely would not purchase an EV without the solar system to charge the battery. One very important factor that most people don’t realize just yet is when the increase of electricity hits the consumer, and YES! It’s gonna happen. They are shutting down affordable, reliable...
