I took it that the electrical system (LV) will be a 48volt system. They talk about the reduction in weight of the wiring harness and this achieved via the fact that a higher voltage system can be run on a greatly reduced size of wire. That’s my speculation not actual comment from Ford.

Huh. You might want to check your sources again. The article is taking about delaying T3 (New midsized EV truck platform) not the F150. If you’re thinking it’s a 150 Lightning replacement it’s not. At least not a direct replacement. We likely see the Lightning go away when it comes to...

Yes, that is correct. However the T3 was originally announced as coming 2026, if memory serves. It was delayed once several months back to 2027 and now to 2028. If they keep that up, I’ll be dead and gone. 🤪

I saw the same level of knowledge among my friends regarding the Maverick before its release. We all know how that has turned out. 😀

Be careful. That plug is not likely rated for a continuous draw at the amperage. Those are known for melting and burning. The circuit may be ok, but that plug should be replaced with a UL listed EV plug.

I’m leaning Extended, however, based on cost I my go standard. I drive a 2022 Lightning with the extended range battery in it. I have never faced an issue with range and have never gone below 30%. Not because of fear, but just my usage case. (Home charging 95% of the time). I will go...

With the SUV seat installed it looks like it has pretty limited leg room. Not sure that’s going to work for a lot of people.

The front view looks a lot like the Mach-e, to me anyway.

To me, that looks too much like the Hyundai Santa Cruz. Never was a fan of that thing.

Looks like Ford may be preparing to announce its next generation EV and it may actually be affordable. Aug 11th is planned press day. https://insideevs.com/news/767532/ford-ev-reveal-model-t-moment-august-11/

Sweet!! Wonder how fast they were traveling.?

In addition they are using a single sku# for both sides. The single taillight is installable on either side. It simply flips over, much like the arm rests on the doors. Their goal is to keep 'costs' down.

In KY now the plate is assigned to the owner and is transferred from vehicle to vehicle by the dealer. Makes things much simpler.

What he/she said👆👆 I have used this model on my last three trucks over the past four years and find it to be a great value.

I would think if it’s going to get longer 6’ is max for a truck of this size. Any longer and we lose the proportions that make it look like it does.

Boomers for sure. More disposable income and these were the trucks we started with. 1970-80 small Nissan, Toyota, Chevy S10 and Ford Ranger. But hey, I am one so there is that.

CarVanna for delivery makes sense. However, Walmart for service does not. These are electric vehicles. They are going to need a EV trained group of technicians.

I believe @sodamo has it right. My understanding was that the truck would come off the line in only one of two configurations; Standard range or Extended range. Every other option would be installed after line production. Could be wrong, but I’m pretty sure.
