Munro on the Ford? Or have they looked at the Slate? Towing ratings gotta be tricky. Towing in hilly/mountain places is a whole nuther world from towing in the flat midwest where I am.
What sports are on AM radio? They have all moved to FM channels where there are actual listeners. We have top shelf minor league baseball and hockey teams. Hockey teams been on the air for 50+ years. AM for most of my life. Now on FM. Same with baseball. There are 2? strongish AM signals...
Why would you expect them to switch to selling an outside brand vs selling their own that they make a lot more $ on? Every car brand has their own mats and covers now and they work very hard at putting them in every vehicle on the lot.
That' is the way some manufacturers are going. Understating range to not get raked over the coals when (some) people get less. Chevy in particular has several models routinely getting 20-50 miles more range than quoted. (for some people)
Yeh, maybe on the next round of vehicle development if they make it to that point. My transit connect mini-van with 2.5l 4 cyl tows up to 2500 which would be nice. Tires have to be upgraded to higher load limits ($), wheels might have to depeding on rating as is. I suspect that weight...
Lightning was a 1/2 assed EV conversion to a gas pickup. Needed to be dumped. This was in the works long prior to dumping the Lightning.
I'd be large that a 30k ev truck WILL do it.
"Slate's claimed opposition to these practices is one of their more compelling arguments to me."
The more stories I hear about ridiculous situations like this, the more Slate makes sense.
If it's at 95% of it's original capacity why would you bother? That' "seems' to be the developing trend over time, that they just don't degrade as much/fast as expected. Now if you can double the range then, well that MIGHT make some difference, but still, if you're talking 5k, (cheap!) youre...
Sorry, but 500hp in a tiny vehicle IS nuts. I had a reservation for awhile, then noticed the obcession with 0-60 times. As ex-Tesla guys I' guess that's all they know. Sure is time to move beyond that attribute. JMO
Building a dangerous vehicle that feeds silly peoples need for power in the...
