GEORGE - You and I have the exact same thoughts on electric vehicles, and for the same reasons. I'm not sure WHY Ford is rushing to create so many electric vehicles. I guess maybe they believe what the POTUS and the creators of The GREEN NEW DEAL are spreading, but a manure spreader would be a better tool to spread what they are making.
My typical trip is 5 miles to town or Doctor's office, or town hall to drop off fallen tree limbs, then 5 miles home. But What happens when I want to drive 400 miles to AVOCA, Iowa to visit FARMALL LAND, how many stops to recharge on that 400 mile trip? Right now my biggest one day trip is a bit over 1100 miles. 4 gas stops, and a lunch & potty stop, Wife was a REAL Trooper, She stayed awake to keep Me awake.
The idea of a vehicle burning hydrogen with the waste product being WATER, is the ONLY idea that makes any sense for the future. Today's technology using Lithium batteries is DANGEROUS, for people AND the environment. There's only so much Lithium on this planet, it would be a hazardous waste if we weren't using it for batteries for everything from cell phones to toys, cameras, yard tools, and now cars & pickups. Have Our Elected Officials got even the slightest clue how much energy it takes to keep a 80,000# semi-truck rolling 60-70 mph down the highway, and how HUGE the battery needed to make that energy has to be.
There's NO future in my wildest dreams where I drive an electric car/truck. I have a normal collection of cordless tools. I did have 4 good Ni-Cad batteries and 4 good Lith-Ion batteries, I'm now down to 3+3, when I get to 2+2 I'll probably have to buy a couple. Or pull my corded tools out of storage, afterall, they're electric too.

Today's Featured Article - Talk of the Town: The Saga of Grandpa's Tractor - by The following saga is from the Tractor Talk Discussion Forum. Someone. The saga starts with the following message: Hey guys I have a decision to make. I know what you all will probably suggest and it will probably agree with me way down inside, but here it is. I have a picture blown up and framed in my "tractor room" of a Farmall M. It was my Grandpa's tractor, of which whom I never got to meet. He froze to death getting this tractor out of the barn to pull a truck out of the ditch before I was born. Anyway my dad and aunt had to sell it at the auction, ... [Read Article]
