great range is a stretch. good range. especially for the battery size.
Because reviewers like this keep telling us that this is a real F150 and does real “truck-like things” I, like many F150 owners with gas engines, tow a 7,000 lb camper and not just for “5m miles to the lake”. I need real towing range. Having a tow capacity of 10,000 lb is all well and good, but reviewers like Kyle…
Of course, just as with internal-combustion models, efficiency will take a nose dive when towing or hauling.
An important but often overlooked fact is the difference between advertised and real-world range. Some tests have been done and showed real-world range, especially in straight highway driving, is usually substantially less than touted in promotion.
I agree slightly with this article, Range Anxiety is only part of the problem.
Of course there are situations where range anxiety is a legitimate concern, just like there is a small cross section of those people driving huge trucks and SUVs because they actually need the towing capacity and extra storage space. But the majority of people would probably be just find with an EV that has 300 miles…
Fact of the matter is 300 mile range isn’t 300 miles.
I’ve owned a Tesla since 2016 and do a 900 mile drive back and forth (1,800 miles both ways) to my parents house once or twice a year.
The study didn’t say that at all. You took a small point (38% of people could do fine with a short-range EV) and make a completely unwarranted conclusion (everyone’s range anxiety is nonsense).
As a guy that sells Chryslers for a living, It’s getting REALLY painfull to see all the gorgeous PSA cars getting launched in Europe, and over here I’ve got just nothing. I’m sure the Pacifica and 300 are printing money as I have none on the lot and almost all my inbound inventory is pre-sold, but that’s part of the…
This is why TikTok should be banned. It has created a system where people are incentivized for hurting others and causing mayhem. American-owned companies like YouTube don’t reward challenges or allow them to go viral, whereas TikTok actively encourages it.
Finally someone asked. I think it’s so they can ask for more money.
As someone who deals with a lot of regulations and safety testing, something this article doesn’t point out is the importance of not just maximum size, but minimum size safety requirements. This ride engineer had to create a seat that would accommodate, not only larger adults, but also the ride’s main focus, younger…
Two things can be true: obese people should be treated with dignity, respect, love, and validation; and we need to confront the food problems that are causing unhealthy obesity and killing people. The former is a social issue; the latter needs to be led by the agencies who are supposedly built to help combat public…
I suspect a video about the years-long slog through lobbying and legislature, with its accompanying failures and setbacks and systemic sabotage, to finally result in a compromise which allows for some mild progress, will not generate the revenue sufficient to fund such an effort.
This guy can give away money because…
This is a great idea. An S60 with AWD is about $48k.
ya know, a quick search will tell these boneheads that most of the “SUVs” out there are quite good in the emissions front. Now I don’t really like crossovers and suvs either especially most of their drivers, but messing with another person’s livelihood to send a message is never ok, and the second these people F…
The only thing these nimrods are doing is convincing people they’re a bunch of dick heads.
This is one of the most idiotic articles ever posted on Jalopnik.
