I think the Ford electric truck is selling like crazy to that demographic; if you really need low end torque suddenly an electric motor is tolerable.
Lmao my dad never shuts the fuck up about electric cars now he wants an electric car because Elon became a right wing god.
I don't actually think this...but imagine if Elon is just pulling a super long con on the right.
Again, he isn't..but that would be pretty cool in an alternate universe.
They're not selling here. There's a huge off-roading community here and nobody wants to risk getting stuck 300km into a logging trail.
Lol, yeah. Everyone I talk to about my car instantly becomes a weekend road tripper, like they are constantly going on thousand mile road trips to the middle of nowhere where there aren't any charging stations.
In theory, with a stack of solar panels an EV could take you even farther into the wilderness, The Martian style.
Well people using their trucks to that extreme are always going to choose reliability over performance
They've barely built about 20K of them so far. Demand outstrips supply, yes, but it's a low bar.
