Hmm... They quoted 2400 lbs payload (frunk separate from cabin+bed. I don't think that is right.

Edit - he also said it uses either cylindrical or prismatic batteries and not pouch. I wonder if they did that to reduce cost and capitalize on the larger footprint offered by a truck. (They use pouch cells in the Mach-e)

I wondered about that too but what I am most curious about is that if his hair and beard were photoshopped?

Yeah - there were more than a few inconsistencies with what this guy had to say compared to some of the other videos of info sessions I've seen. Not sure how much stock I put into what's in this one, as several things didn't quite line up with others. Or, maybe he's right, and everybody else was off-base on various things. Who knows for sure. I think it's fair to say there is still lots of speculation until it comes out in writing.

My $.02.

Don't believe that guy. He was the one that told me that there were charging ports on both the driver and passenger side at the driving event I attended.

That was the same guy that presented in Boston. He had a few inaccuracies in his presentation there also.
