I think the lariat with the extended range is good value at 80k before rebate.

Oh, like a power switch to turn on various things like screen, radio, etc.. Makes sense. Thanks. It's sort of like turning the ignition key to the first click. I had a feeling it was a dumb question.You have a point, but the start button is still being used to start it, or turn it on in this case, just like an ICE vehicle. Could be like Tesla where you just get in, put it in gear, and go, but most are not like that (yet).
It turns things on. Before pushing that button, you can't shift and the infotainment system isn't running. It may not be necessary, strictly speaking, but it gives comfort to people who still remember using an actual key to start the car.This may be a dumb question but what would a "push start" button do on an electric car? If they change from a manual key to a remote key, do you need a button if there is no engine to start? And I assume there is still some shifter to take if from a parked state to a ready to drive state (putting it in gear).
I remember seeing a video where Ford mentioned that their customers don’t want a Tesla-Like “Just get in and drive”, even though they can do it. So they have included the button because most people are familiar with that.You have a point, but the start button is still being used to start it, or turn it on in this case, just like an ICE vehicle.

At least they're heated for $74K$74K for a truck with clothes seats?
Same here!.....I, for one, am reserving a Chevy tomorrow and will buy whichever brand's base model I can get first.
Nvm it looks like the pro has the keypad. Sweet. Kinda a must for me as I surf a lot and lock my keys in the carYou take the key fob out of your pocket, press the open button.
No keypad on the PRO, not even an option.Nvm it looks like the pro has the keypad. Sweet. Kinda a must for me as I surf a lot and lock my keys in the car
What if the Silverado base trim is ~$70k?Same here!
Reserving a Chevy Silverado EV tomorrow....
If I don't get a Ford wave invite done for a Pro trim by March, then the Chevy base EV will be my backup:
Which is worse if you live in a state without any incentive whatsoever. I can't even get anything from the electric company for installing an EVSE.Thing that sucks is GM/Chevy has no credits left at all so you wont have a chance to take off any money beyond local state initiatives.
Well as much as I'd like a pickup to replace my F-150 I currently have...I just want a good large EV. I also put a reservation down on the Fisker Ocean today. If I can't get a Pro in the next year and a half I may move over to that platform.What if the Silverado base trim is ~$70k?
‘Same here in KY (unless I am driving a Mitch Coalburner).Which is worse if you live in a state without any incentive whatsoever. I can't even get anything from the electric company for installing an EVSE.
A Fisker Ocean? You mean the company that produced a hybrid that had horrible battery failure rates? I think they went bankrupt the first time for a reason.Well as much as I'd like a pickup to replace my F-150 I currently have...I just want a good large EV.
