Think about this one, tho... I drive 50,000 miles a year - mostly in daily chunks of 250mi sections. [Work travel.] I spend as little as $20 and up to $100 per day in fuel... average is $40-60... thats an easy $1000/mo in addition to the vehicle and insurance costs. I'm usually out the door at 7am and back before 3p. 5p if its a long day... 

No, I wouldn't want an electric vehicle as my ONLY transportation, but this F150 isn't some niche luxury, sports or small-utility vehicle like the other electrics that are available. While its gonna be expensive, it doesn't cost $70,000 and up. Its gonna come in ROUND ABOUT standard F-150 prices. 

For a guy like me, AND for many other professionals who use these kinds of vehicles for work or a fleet of trucks for their business, they start to make a LOT of cents... and dollars. 

They are faster, quieter, have more cargo, 'horsepower' and features. Electricity is available and cheap compared to gasoline... and thats all before we talk about how fossil fuel vehicles, in the years to come, are going to be SO hurtful to our environment. The future is here; it has 14" LCD screens and technology to the gills.

I can't f-in wait!!!!

.... Calling me wrong does not make you right
