Yeah that smaller electric truck is allegedly on a "fast track" toward production as they call it in the industry. Should see it in 2027 as a '28 model. A lot of this is happening right up the road from me.

I thought T3 was similar in that it's a dedicated EV platform rather than using ICE F-150 bones, but different in that it's a larger truck.

In any case, range is king which is why EREV is even in the discussion. Scout has been taking pre-orders for quite a while now and "over 80%" of people are wanting the range extender. We don't know yet if that's because people simply want more range, or if it's because that version is as close as people can get to an ICE vehicle, but what that does tell us is that they do NOT want a pure EV.
OR
it tells us they don't really know what they want, so they lean towards what seems most familiar.
