    I want an electric truck, but it’s range is not realistic. I can carry an extra can deep in the woods. I can get someone to bring me gas if I pushed my luck, not so with an electric.

      They’re not for everyone. Not yet.

        I was hyped about the rear plugs on the lightning. Camping and recharging power tool batteries would’ve been great.

          They make a hybrid with the same plugs. Even more useful, really.

          They are replacing the lightning with a model that has a smaller battery for in town driving and a generator to charge the battery. Sounds perfect for your use case.

            And the Maverick EV will be under $30K. Americans still won’t buy them.

      Pickup drivers only buy trucks for rare scenarios.
