Key fob ftw! I know everyone is different, but I do not require a app on my phone and the good old fob has yet to fail me. Bonus, less data collection. Before someone mentions that everyone and everything has your data let me just state that I'm also going to die one day, and everything can kill...

I did the opposite. I went from a Rivian R1T (Launch Edition) to the Ford Lightning. Unfortunately my experience with the Rivian I had was not good. Honestly it was a terrible experience. I had half shaft issues (clicks and thunks), electric issue (interior light would come on by itself...

Probably 100k+

Not sure if this is semi old news but for those curious about Dodge Rev .... Which apparently is what Ford is trying to emulate. 92kwh battery (not sure if that is 100% usable), claimed 145 mile of range on pure battery(wonder what real world avg will be, bet it wont be the claimed 145 miles...

Jon A is entitled to his position as I am mine. I think the case for a FORD EREV is not very strong or compelling for most people. Imho it's a quickly conceived compromise borne from tariffs, fires and politics. All tied together. A hurried option that sounds good from a distance but any...

Curious, if you never had any interest in buying a BEV, why are you posting on the F150 BEV dedicated forum? Obviously nothing prevents you from doing so, but odd that your first posts would be on this subject, on this particular forum. Your 96% number also assumes that all those people who...

My bet is none of the EREVs will be cheaper than their pure ice variants. If they are released or if they are released in any amount. As a EV driver and boat owner the pitch that I can drive around town on EV but have ICE to recharge for towing long distances is not a selling point to me. I bet...

Did not check to see if this has been posted already, apologies if it has... https://electrek.co/2026/02/19/biggest-study-yet-shows-plug-in-hybrids-use-over-300-more-fuel-than-claimed/

That article was hilarious. Half of it talks about how much isn't known..but its great.

There are a lot of compelling mid sized SUVs coming out soon. Volvo EX60, BMWix3, RIvian R2 and offerings from Mercedes. Of course those are all 60k+ (with maybe the Rivian coming in less). Both the BMW and the Volvo first iterations will not be much more over 60k and pretty loaded from what I...

It sounds promising. Most will want to see more than a YT video before buying into this and I'm no different. But if it's real, it would be a massive leap forward.

Well to be fair, the price to get into a 200+ kwh battery was close to 100k...now you can get one in the upper 80s-90k. That obviously limits sales.

If you ever wonder what would have happened if the mobsters in the 20s-30s had taken over...well.. Woot SC! (in the midlands)

Almost sounds like something out of a mafia playbook..hmm

That number (20billion) includes paying off SK to break their partnership (2 battery plants and cell contract), the cost of losing a plant and keeping one, shutting down all Lightning production, retooling EV central to a ICE plant basically, and using the battery plant to switch batteries over...

Anyone can claim anything. It's insignificant hot air until there is something tangible. What is real at this point in time, factually speaking.... Erev is vaporware until it's out. It won't sell more than anything because it isn't a thing except in concept. Until it is, it's an excuse and a...

Mr.Magoo is correct and I thought that my wording was clear enough that most folks would get what I was saying. I was replying to the op of the thread. He seemed inclined to believe the generator would also function as a standard motor as well, driving the vehicle itself as opposed to...

That is not what my statement meant. It meant it will not power the trucks wheels directly. The sole purpose as reported by the Ford rep on this board is to add extra range to the batteries via being a range extending generator.

Wouldn't the entire case for the range extender (ice generator) be to put power back into the batteries? When would you use the range extender? not on your daily commute. You'll go home and charge there. But when you are towing and need more range. That's the selling point right?
