Yikes, if you plan to tow a medium sized boat you may be interested in this test.

 

Towing with my Ford Lightning EV Pickup was a TOTAL DISASTER!

My boat is small at 1500# and only 60 miles RT.  Been doing it on about 1/4 tank of "fuel".

 

On the other hand...This weekend we have about a 450 mile drive to a wedding rehearsal dinner.  We are going to leave early and need to be at dinner at 5pm.  Not going to take the F150L.  Too much risk in delay.  As nice as it would be to have the electronic aids and handsfree driving _ Im not wanting to take the extra time to futz around with charging.  Too bad but we cant risk getting in late and we cant leave the day before.  So definitely some compromises.
