I suspect that Ford is subsidizing the truck (i.e. selling below cost) a 
bit to get into the market and is counting on the price of their battery 
dropping over time to make it profitable.

Re: [EVDL] Ford F-150 Reveal - Great for everyone!

2021-05-22 Thread John Blair via EV
I’ve had two EV’s like that.  The first was my 1980 ComutaCar that I drove for 
20 years. It held two people and a few bags of groceries, hit 38 mph on the 
flat for about 35 miles. It was a lightweight car, but I loved it. It was great 
in a city. It was not great on hills so when I moved to a rural area with lots 
of steep hills, I sold it.  The next one was a used 2002 Toyota RAV4-EV. We 
pulled the two rear seats out (it seats five) and it was a micro-van. I could 
carry my fire gear and two wet german shepherd dogs without messing anything 
up.  It had a range of up to 100 miles and easily drove on hills and freeways.  
I sold it after I bought my Tesla (needed the long range) and because it was 
losing range and a lack of support.  Both were great cars. In both cases, 
service was ultimately an issue.

I hear you!  The Tango was a brilliant but doomed EV.

Maybe if you're really wealthy you could have Rick custom-build you one. I 
may be wrong, but I have a vague recollection that one or two rich 
television stars commissioned Tangos from him for their collections.

Parenthetically: IIRC, at one time, you could have ordered a Sunrise from 
Solectria on the same basis.  I think the cost was somewhere north of $100k, 
which when you think about it isn't that much for a hand-built car.

The closest production EV to the Tango was the Corbin Sparrow.  Used ones 
pop up now and again.  But from what I could tell, the Tango was/is vastly 
superior to the Sparrow.  More stable, for one thing.  

And the Sparrow was for only one person, not for two sitting tandem.  You 
might be able to stuff a little kid behind the seat of a pizza-butt Sparrow, 
but it wouldn't be safe to do so.

Keith Bradsher quoted someone in the auto business in "High and Mighty, The

the owner misses his driveway at 3am."

Yours is an astute observation that automakers' customers aren't us, they're 
the dealers.  But it was the automakers who originally decided to evade the 
US CAFE regulations by heavily advertising trucks and SUVs.  

When they passed the CAFE laws, legislators assumed that those would be 
commercial and specialty vehicles, and subjected them to much less stringent 
regulation.  (Whether that was an appropriate action is debateable, but 
that's how the treated them.)  By the time their error was obvious, the 
makeup of congress had changed, and the legislators were firmly attached to 
short leashes held by the petroleum and auto industries.

I wonder if somehow Willie got his hands on authentic Japanese-market

Japanese market Imiev really was a Kei-car.  However, the US Imiev was

So do I. It would cover 90% of my driving needs. I've had to build my 
own EVs for decades. They are OK for me; but I can't hope to compete 
with the level of fit and finish of a professionally designed vehicle.



I guess the demand just isn't here.


As has been said many times, "demand" is a strange thing. The US 
carmakers respond to what their customers want -- and their customers 
are the *dealers*, not the end users. *Dealers* want big flashy 
feature-loaded high-profit vehicles!


The dealers are only indirectly affected by what consumers want. Many of 
us have had the experience of going into a dealership looking for 
something small and simple, and being aggressively pushed toward a much 
bigger and more expensive model. Where I live in the midwest, the dealer 
lots are filled with big SUVs and monster pickups... no EVs, no small 
cars. Maybe a hybrid or two, hidden way in the back of the lot.


Then there are the ads. They are classic works of fantasy and fiction, 
all emotion and illusion. Vehicles doing things you'll never do, in 
places you'll never drive. No information whatsoever on how practical 
the vehicle would be for YOU. The whole point is to convince you to buy 
something you don't need that the vehicle can't deliver.

This is indeed great!
I gave $100.
It's much taller, heavier and safer than my past EV Rabbit, but for that $30K 
after rebates (in CA) just think of the modifications you can make with all 
that empty space (frunk), a SawzAll and some fiberglass & aluminum.  Everything 
from a chop top, front-end / back end pop-up camper to an electric Batmobile. 
It's like a template for every parade float you can think of, or a recreation 
of the Death-mobile from Animal House that is also a pop-up camper. And power 
your house from the dryer plug when the power goes out, minimal modifications 
required.
This will be much fun for all!

Smaller, for sure. But not even close to half.
Leaf 175"
i-miev 148"

Half of leaf would be 87.5, so i-miev is 70% larger than that.

By comparison, the smart ev is 106".

China makes lots of vehicles like this but I have no idea on their 
safety and I doubt they can be serviced here.


I guess the demand just isn't here. Perhaps most people need a highway 
capable vehicle and there aren't enough urban areas to justify sales for 
non highway vehicles. I'm not saying there's any chance that F-150 
buyers would switch to tiny cars, though.

Tradespeople in every other major industrial democracy do fine with trucks 
as little as half the weight of our pickups.  US prickups carry less cargo 
per unit of energy used than work vehicles (usually vans) almost anywhere 
else.  They're grossly oversized, grossly overpowered, grossly wasteful. 

The majority of people who own these enormous trucks don't need their full 
capacity every day.  Many use that capacity a few times per year at most.  

The rational answer to that situation is the station car concept.  Instead 
of owning a vehicle, you pay for the right to use the vehicle you need day 
to day.  M-F you might commute to work in a subcompact EV or midsize plug 
hybrid.  Every so often you swing by the depot after work on Friday and swap 
it for a pickup truck or van, so you can haul plywood from the lumberyard 
for a home project.  Monday morning you get your EV back.  Twice a year for 
2 weeks you sign up for a 7-place van or ute or even a camper, so you can 
haul the family on vacation in relative comfort.

But that won't fly here, because while I doubt that it's true of most 
EVDLers, many big pickup owners don't really own their vehicles because they 
need them.  They own them because the size and power appeal to their 
antisocial, aggressive emotions.  

The truck manufacturers know that, and deliberately design them for that 
appeal.  Just look at them - massive slablike front ends attached to 
comically small beds, huge wheels, roaring exhausts, beercan-size chrome 
plated phallic tailpipes.  Compare them with the practical, economical vans 
that European and Asian tradespeople drive.  Heck, compare them with the 
more reaonable and practical pickups that Americans drove in the 1960s.

Don't misunderstand me. I think it's good that Ford is going to build an EV 
pickup.  It's just that they could have made it so much more rational.

“Growth forthe sake of growth is the ideology of the cancer cell.” — Edward 
Abbey
In order tomaintain the endless expansion and infinite growth that capitalist 
economiesrequire, our economy demands ever-increasing levels of extraction, 
productionand consumption. In fact, economists and politicians generally 
believewe need to keep the global economy growing by around 3 percent annually, 
that meaning that the economy needs to double every 20 years —that’s twice as 
much of everything 20 years from now — andthen twice as much as that 20 years 
later.It’s not hard to see how this kind ofexponential, infinite growth is 
impossible on a finite planet — and it’s nosurprise that we’re seeing

They say ‘projected’ EPA range is 230. The EPA ranges for my volt and bolt seem 
to agree with my actual experience. That said, it doesn’t appear that the F150 
is very streamlined; I imagine they wanted to make it look like a ‘normal’ 
pickup as much as possible. Must be a big battery. 

I agree that the V2H (had to look that up) is very attractive.

I'll certainly be interested in seeing highway speed ranges. My 
impression is that, with CyberTruck, attention was given to 
aerodynamics.  So, the CT may be a lot better than any traditional

Well isn't that special, a big bloated inefficient truck with 
(literally) a ton of batteries shoved in it. Sigh...


I've got my CyberTruck reserved.

It may be that the only *different* option for this F-150 is the big screen.

Here is an informative article about the truck:

https://www.cnet.com/roadshow/news/2022-ford-f150-lightning-electric-truck-reveal-specs-pricing/?ftag=CAD13782fc=28976037309935815549385297896589=13374101=2193452846

 I have been waiting to buy an electric vehicle and was considering the Ford 
Mach-E, but the range and colors it comes with are very limited. I have an 2002 
F-150 now and it has been a great truck. I might be willing to plop down $100 
to reserve one. I have been searching for the interior options and can't find 
it. Has anyone done this yet?

The best case against fuel cells is an extension cord or a solar trailer.

With Ford’s reveal, is he contemplating the F-150 Lightning in its place?

I think it very exciting to potentially even have choice in the near future. It 
certainly raises the bar for everyone.

Re: [EVDL] Ford F-150 Reveal

2021-05-20 Thread Mark Abramowitz via EV
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?

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.

Haha, I new you'd sneak in fuel cells. :) I'll give you this. I think it 
makes more sense to do range extension with a fuel cell than with an 
ICE.


Does anyone have an idea which would be more compact for a given amount

I really don’t care - if it gets people interested in EVs as a cool, high 
performance vehicle, that’s great.

This is a middle America meat and potatoes vehicle.

Over time it will get lighter, and what you saw was one with added weight from 
a larger battery pack and other extras.

I wouldn’t be surprised that option disappeared over time, and if you need all 
that extra juice, you’ll be able to get a fuel cell electric version. (Sorry, 
that’s just the more fitting EV option for that need)

I see this vehicle as game-changing as the Tesla.

Then there are the other two that they drove up on stage - both look great, but 
actually the light commercial vehicle is of greater import and impact.
