Well, now that I have checked, reality has not been kind. My estimated date of delivery is November 2023. I guess I will have a significant down payment by then, but I am disappointed that I will be waiting for over two years.

I hope you get that upsell! I am going to look at my place in line again with this information. Thank you.

These modules are sealed inside the pack. There are videos showing the effort it demands to access the individual modules. Given what I have watched, I would find it easier to extract a V8 engine in my driveway, than to extract a module without damaging the battery pack.

We own a model 3 with a glass roof. If I don't look up, I forget it is glass. The cabin is very comfortable and the light is not actually significant. I do enjoy looking through the roof. But, it isn't an issue in the winter nor in the summer. The cabin can get hot inside, but it really...

I think a full pack may be easier to replace. They won't go in and replace a cell, they will replace the whole pack by disconnecting it from the front structural member and the rear structural member with only a few bolts. I have removed whole engine assemblies, suspension assemblies, even a...

Other than the ridiculous price tag the ride height of my 71 F250 is the reason I keep it running and usable.

Ford and GM have been using planned obsolescence for decades. I understand they are large and diverse corporations with their own credit companies. But, for them to build an E.V. to rival Tesla, means they will need to build vehicles that last, for a comparable price point. I do not trust...

In a very similar way I am right there with you. I wrench on cars and truck for my fun and intellectual interest. I have a 1966 Ford Galaxie that I am rebuilding from the ground up, an F250, and an 88 Dakota that I plan to modify. When I get the C.T. around a year (or two) from now, I'm going...

My wallet looks at me with question marks too. Still, it can look at me cross-eyed for the next several years, I am going to get the dual motor at the least!

Well, that was enlightening. I've been complaining about not having an eight foot bed option since the reveal of the C.T. which was the singular reason I delayed reserving one. Yes, I know it was a stupid move and I will have to wait my turn for a full year or more. Despite not having the...

No one knows about the cyber truck? 1/2 million reservations as of February 2021 from 146K on the first day. How many does the F150 have? 20K on the first day and now up to a whopping 45K as of last count? Uh huh... sure. Okay. You sound like you know what you are talking about. I would...

I have to admit, I have begun to enjoy your commentary. I stifle my commentary because I am uncomfortable being a fan boy, despite my best efforts, I am for Tesla. I am glad Ford is offering E.V. versions of their vehicles. Still, I recognize their efforts as posturing and brand marketing...

Well done!

Um, no. I would NEVER carry any material under my suspension. I may drag materials at a slow speed, but sling materials under my vehicle, even the flat surface of a Tesla, still exposes my assets (building materials) to road debris, small animals unfortunate enough to be in the wrong place at...

I am no expert in CGI, but the perspectives are off. The people are all either well over 6 feet tall or the 3% reduction was all in the cabin area and vault. The man walking behind the last truck is taller than the vault length given the perspective. Then there is the box truck, which could...

My guess is that Ford is presenting the F150 as a comparable to their I.C.E. version as a toe in the water. They aren't ready to compete directly with Tesla because it would damage their existing line up. Nothing I have seen has been remarkable compared to Tesla. However, as a daily use truck...

I understand that a receiver hitch assembly is welded together and built of stout mild steel. However, every assembly I have ever seen has been bolted to the frame, not welded. Then they also have a sheer pin that attaches the stinger to the receiver. They have manufactured failure points and...

Actually, mine is a camper special with the Dana 60 axle. it is the same as the 1 ton and above.

There are other "bars" including the liquor store and the garage. I prefer the liquor store, the garage, and a couple of folding chairs. I am glad Ford has entered the E.V. market. Their product is substandard, I expect it is purposeful and calculated, but at least they have offerings. I am...

I know I am going to sound asinine. Still, this seems to be an unofficial Ford infomercial, with all of the ford talking points expressed verbatim, except Ford made Ranchero NOT El Camino. Also, couldn't they have exchanged some weight??!! My 1971 Ford F250 with a 390CI V8, C6 heavy...
