I wish somebody would do this with a gas truck.

Another, but still EV.

Ford's new 'Fathom' electric pickup truck will start at $28,000

It's the first vehicle to be built using the "Universal Electric Vehicle" platform that Ford has said is key to making money with EVs.

No details. I find it funny they came up with the price first, before the specs.

I have a half ton now and I still contemplate, if I should have just bought a three quarter ton.

My last two trucks have been 3/4 ton but not the HD. Not even sure if GM does it anymore. Bigger engine, brakes and cooling system among other things and 8 lug wheels. mtmuley

I had a reservation for the Slate but didn't ever complete my order. The price kept creeping up to the point where the Ford Maverick just provided more value. I didn't pull the trigger on it either as I think the phev Prius is a better car for my use. I still have the truck, and my wife's rav4 gets around great, being able to commute on just electric (world's cheapest power rates) and get 60 mpg going to various kids sports things probably makes the most sense.

Or I'll throw sense out the window and buy a mid 90's Land cruiser

I can't fathom how Ford got a Subaru Brat and a Honda Ridgeline to mate
