But back to the Ford F-150 Lightning - $40-90k before incentives. Doesn’t sound cheap, but it performs better than any F-150 has ever performed, which is exactly what’s needed to generate sales and excitement, and make it *the* F-150 to own. Hopefully the base 230 mile range will be sufficient for most.
$100 to reserve one - any takers on this list? - Mark Sent from my Fuel Cell powered iPhone > On May 20, 2021, at 7:11 AM, Mark Abramowitz <[email protected]> wrote: > > Didn’t exactly sneak it in...just put it where it made sense. > > I agree about a range extended, but for those who want the option to pull > lots of power out at a construction site, or *maybe* even a landscaper that > need to charge their batteries for their equipment, a fuel cell for auxiliary > power may make more sense. > > - Mark > > Sent from my Fuel Cell powered iPhone > >> On May 20, 2021, at 7:03 AM, Peri Hartman via EV <[email protected]> wrote: >> >> Haha, I new you'd sneak in fuel cells. :) I'll give you this.
