       I can't believe they mentioned waiting in line at a Starbucks in
       this thing.  This is not good for my mental health.  I usually
       give solipsism only a passing thought reminding myself that
       solipsism is deep thought for a weak mind.
       but......................?
       Knowing what we do about range and capacity of EVs this 8-minute
       commercial did a good job putting lipstick on a pig.
       You make it with a 5 foot bed because that is most popular?
       No, you make it 6 feet long and customers are going to be pissed
       off by the total lack of range.
       Some Fords once had little chrome letters that spelled F-O-R-D
       across the back trunk.  A buddy in High School popped his out
       and rearranged them to spell D-O-R-F.  Knowing what I do now
       about American History if a Ford Truck comes out with
       re-arrangable letters I'm going to make a kit that will allow
       you to replace the letters and spell out N-A-Z-I.
       In honor of old Henry.
       The bit about running your house when the power goes out.  A
       prayer to maintain the status-quo.  Blessings from heaven.  This
       truck will protect you.  Keeps the bean sprouts in the
       hydroponic garden growing after climate change knocks out the
       power.  Is that cool or what!  Next years model will save your
       immortal soul.

       Praise the Bomb baby,  Yeah!  This pickup is the Bomb.
       * If extras can take the base price from only one and a half
       years at $15 an hour (forgetting about taxes and necessary
       expenses like food to stay alive).  to over two and a half years
       fully loaded, throw a McMansion to plug the beast into for
       another 650K.  Do a thirty year mortgage for the whole thing.
       Since none of us have that much time left it would be a very
       good deal.

       I think the bed should be long enough for the average person to
       sleep without dropping the tailgate, in case you have to live in
       it.  Say 5'10" or so,
       Tall People got no reason to live. lol.

       Tall people better stay alive.  For them the truck won't work as
       an electric hearse.  But that's ok.  I'm not quite totally bored
       with the nonsense we live in yet.  My disgust is still mixed
       with wonder.  I'll hang around a while longer.  Maybe in time
       they will make one that will fit me.
       Mention was made of a prep area for meals on the drivers
       console.  Which is good.  Somebody somewhere is going to find
       themselves in circumstances where one of these becomes their
       home.
       Making the question if they will be lucky bastards very
       philosophical.

       As a trades person I am impressed by the inverter. Ev people
       have been hacking their auxiliary 12 volt battery for a while
       with inverters but to include 9.6 kw of inverter fed from the
       main battery is a great idea. The fleet people are going to love
       it and there are thousands of them...
