In my Maverick hybrid, it is exactly that way....was noticed at first and it kinda reminded me of my youth driving a Ski Doo snowmobile....but like everything else, you become accustomed to it. 

I don't believe it takes much effort with F650/F750...they are using an older steel cab version and in-house powertrains ...hell, even the headlights are poached from E-Series...your biggest expenses would be front and rear suspension components like axles and springs. The frames are still open channel C-Frames past the cab structure....don't see how much cheaper it can get unless going to the new cab/interior structure gives it a cost advantage that the current steel cab does not have scale wise. Same issue would also face E-Series.  

Good point but older people are even a harder sell. The other issue is people already hate dealing with dealerships (already a trust issue there and they have their own motives for not wanting to sell them)

Well it hard to collect data when it wasn't collected prior to 2021 LOL   The data has been updated since then

And they must use the ICE to charge the battery when driving from the suburbs to the city so they can use battery in the city.

I am looking forward to the CE1 small truck when it debuts....it just may be the EV I will buy. Retired now and some times, my Maverick hybrid will sit for a day or two before I go out and about and when I do, it is usually a short trip.

Hello, I have a low-mileage 2016 MKS Basemodel with only 76k miles, but recently the RF and LR windows stopped working. A Facebook group for MKS owners suggested the issue might be in the driver's door panel, so I replaced it with an OEM part, but the problem persists. I also swapped the RR and LR switches, but the same issue remains; in fact, the LR window worked even without a switch installed. I know Fuse 3 under the dash powers the RF window, but I can’t access it, and it seems unlikely that two different fuses would fail. Initially, the problem was intermittent, but it completely failed a few days later. Any suggestions?

Yeah, for the last two years it makes a frequent reappearance but this time also refers to the earlier 2021 survey. its the same thing, PHEV owners in Europe can’t always home charge because a lot of places have no garage.      

Great timing to have tariffs on Canadian aluminum. 

I agree, fear of change and the unknown is a real concern with a lot of people. Which is why I'd like to see more education efforts made by these brands. I believe if more consumers were educated on the realities of daily EV ownership, EVs wouldn't be seen as this big scary boogeyman. They aren't perfect for everyone, but there are a lot of people out there where EV use cycles would be really ideal, but they're just too nervous to try them out.   My folks are a perfect example of this. They drive almost entirely short distances, no more than a few miles at a time 95% of the time, almost entirely stop and go lower speed driving, only a few thousand miles a year, and like many couples in their 60s, they own a home where they could charge.    I feel like ev ownership would suit them very well, especially as they get older and just want a low hassle, very reliable vehicle. But it's hard to convince them because they've fallen for the misinformation. My father in particular who believes if he buys an EV the battery pack will fail and he'll be hit with this 30 grand repair bill. I try to explain that EVs, especially as battery tech evolves, are often extremely reliable, especially from brands like Ford, but he won't hear it.    More needs to be done to counter disinformation without making people feel like EVs are being forced down their throats.
