No, Ford itself said affordable. I understand that. my point was, I don't see it making sense to just throw a Bronco truck at TTP, as why wouldn't you consolidate Bronco-related things at MAP since they'd share a lot of components.......Hence why I threw the F-100 idea out there.

Yes, this looks better. I like the profile and what we can see of the back, but the front is odd.

I still think it will be a cheaper to build and sell Ranger replacement. Maybe eventually Maverick as well.

And they can drop prices a little to get more sales if the capacity is available.

Whether or not Ford listens to its dealers is another matter. -

They could add a Lincoln variant and possibly a pickup like the Gladiator. Not sure how much the worldwide market would accept the Bronco either, but that could be another possibility. -

Given the comments here and seeing other things-its interesting that there is a decent subset of people who never owned a F-150 bought a Lightning because it was n EV. Furthermore that success didn't translate well to Cybertruck (well that has its own issues) or GM's electric trucks, which indicates to me that the the typical truck buyer didn't want to deal with the "shortcomings" that an EV pickup can have. Just as an example-if your towing something heavy with the Lightning, you'll have a significantly shortened range to the point that the truck is almost unusable in some circumstances, like towing a large boat over 50 miles. That indicates that a large EV Truck isn't ready for primetime, unless in a very specific usecase. A smaller EV pickup, like the CE1 would blur the lines since the expectations wouldn't be as high (towing/hauling) and it would be used more as a personal transport vehicle (which the EV Lightning is fine for also) then something that would be expected to do "real" work like an F-150 would be expected to be doing-it would be able handle getting mulch or a new fridge from Home Depot easily, which might be a little hard to do with the Maverick. -

I'm highly skeptical of the statistical accuracy of this type of survey--and I can't bring myself to dignify these results with the word "study." Is is well-documented that the consumer bases for BEV, Hybrid, and ICE vehicles have fractured--even along political lines--such that all I think you can take from this survey is that people who bought BEVs like BEVs. So, that's not really news and, I would posit, not really a barometer of consumer trends. Also, I note that Ford's F150 team followed right along with my earlier comments regarding application of a dual power system versus solely BEV: Perhaps the most crucial economic pivot lies in Ford’s recalibrated electrification strategy. The fully electric F-150 Lightning will be repositioned as an Extended Range Electric Vehicle (EREV). The EREV architecture shifts the paradigm from pure battery dependency to a more pragmatic, dual-power system. The wheels are propelled entirely by electric motors, but a dedicated onboard combustion generator will be used to replenish the battery pack. Targeting an operational range exceeding 700 miles, the EREV mitigates the costly necessity of massive, resource-heavy battery packs while entirely negating consumer range anxiety—a primary barrier to heavy-duty EV adoption and towing.

I don’t think so. Ford is already making all the Broncos that the market demands.

Agreed, the details are a little odd as well. I like the shape of the DRLs, but their placement is off. They look pinched, like they're too close together. I think this looks better.
