I don't know how the engineers working at other truck manufacturers have the strength/will to get out of bed every morning to compete with F-series trucks. I've put thousands of miles on Silverados and Ram trucks. When it comes to my own money, it's always Ford. They just nail the details that...

I couldn’t care less about the Cybertruck. I find it amazing that Tesla fanboys spend time on Ford forums gushing about the CT. It’s pathetic that people paid a premium for the “Foundation” series. There’s nothing about the CT that screams “six figure” vehicle. Sure, there was a “look at me”...

Yeah, that's a hard pass from me. I like BlueCruise, because it isn't trying to kill me at every opportunity.

Why would you do it? Why pay the absurd premium for the Foundation series? There are so many on the road in my neck of the woods that the "look at me" novelty has totally gone away.

I am not a “guest” at a Supercharger. I am a customer. Tesla fans need to get over the fact that they now need to share. Bringing in users like us pays for the network. I am courteous. I thoughtfully pick my charging stall to have the least impact (grab the rightmost one when I can). I’ve been...

Just to be clear, a charge port at the rear driver’s side of a pickup truck makes ZERO sense, because you can’t charge with the tailgate down. You can have a full load in the bed of our trucks and still use a supercharger without being totally obnoxious. With a Cybertruck, loaded with the...

The best way to be successful and establish your company's foothold in the EV space is to also sell gasoline powered cars and/or motorcycles. Pure EV plays are very very hard -- just look at Tesla's struggles and they're the so-called "leader".

Jalopnik Review of the Silverado EV is pretty scathing... https://jalopnik.com/2024-chevrolet-silverado-ev-rst-s-good-ideas-are-oversh-1851496588 Maybe a full-size pickup truck shouldn't weigh 9000lbs.

1. It sends a message that you're willing to look past Elon's antisemitism. I'd avoid it for any business use on that basis alone. Not all attention is good attention. 2. Rental car companies are dropping Tesla, because the depreciation is so bad that it breaks their business model. I wouldn't...

I see those crash pictures and laugh "Exoskeleton, my a$$"

The way that I use my truck, heck, the 4ft wide bed of the CT doesn’t even cut it. We have a lot more usable space.

It’s a permanent install and takes up the same space used by the spare tire kit.

Completely underwhelming event. Baseball vs steel ball. Exoskeleton nonsense still being peddled. Tommy Gun rounds are subsonic. Elon didn’t even bother to mention pricing during the stream, because he knows that it’s not competitive. Ford now owns the working end of the market. Rivian owns...

When Tesla claims a 267 mile range, that’s more like 180-ish in the real world — they’re getting their day in court on range games. If the battery is only 123kwh and it indeed weighs nearly a ton more than the F150 (stainless steel is way heavier than the all aluminum body ford), yeah, it’s...

If the specs were great, they wouldn't be sitting on them.

Only way that bed is 6ft is with the tailgate down. Wow. Just wow.

They've been hiding the specs, because the specs suck. This isn't a competitor for the Lightning or any full size EV pickup truck. It's an expensive thing that you park at Whole Foods and get pissed that your grocery bags slide around the bed.

That hill is a non-event in an F150. Not worth even recording.

Article calls this "off-roading", but in my world, a dirt road is very much a road. https://jalopnik.com/video-shows-tesla-cybertruck-appearing-to-struggle-with-1850978109

16k miles in six months. Zero issues. 2023 Lariat ER. I love this thing. ?
