2021 Ford F-150
#91
Anyhow, back to the original topic......the 2021 F-150. I wish the article would have told us a little more about the all-electric BEV F-150 that supposedly is coming. With the F-150's traditional huge appeal, it will be interesting to see what the electric version does to Elon Musk's pyramid-shaped competitor.

Rust free work cybertruck, with onboard power, at the base 39k number is something fleet operators/serious trucker shoppers have dreamt about for a while.

And serious truck shoppers are very brand loyal, they're not going to just all of a sudden go buy a Tesla truck and turn their back on their brand they've been a part of for years.
This truck will sell to people who wouldn't have bought a real 1/2 ton truck, or if they did it was a whim vanity purchase. They'll sell them all, don't get me wrong but its not going to put a dent in truck sales.

1) Internal combustion engines dont suffer a mileage penalty at all when towing?
2) All fleet trucks travel 1000 miles everyday? Big urban centers/Cities dont exist?
3) Maintenance intervals that are quite few and far between. Imagine no fluid change intervals, less brake changes.
Just saying, I think if a fleets going to consider an EV F150, their probably gonna look at the cybertruck and other EVs in the market. Saying the cybetruck will not be part of the equation to those considering an F150 EV, is like Mercedes, BMW, and any other luxury automaker downplaying the potential of their ev portfolio back in 2012...we know how thats going currently.
To clarify, I`m not saying the cybertruck is going to magically destroy non EV F150 sales. Just the mere opinion, that if the F150 EV cant match the popular EV options (Rivian and Cybertruck), the F150 EV will become the next ford focus electric.
