Former always bought a TDI to EV owner. The only one i kept is my 2008 Gen 2 Touareg V10—which i will keep forever. It has just over 50k miles and is pristine.
Great color on the F150.
I don't think the Lightnings are a straight retro fit of a gas F150. The frame I believe is totally unique and the rear is IRS. I'm pretty sure not even all of the body panels are the same.
My 2022 loaded lariat ER was 80,500 before tax credit a 2022 model Y perf is about 70 grand without selecting a color. They aren't far apart in price, not counting tax credit. I have a 2020 MYP and had 2020 MSLR before getting a taycan. I love Tesla's and think the charging network is important...
I like the wheels but I think I’m going 18” and getting rid of the 20s. I want more rubber and it may perhaps improve range based on videos I’ve watched.
I watched it over again and it validates my decision to get 18” rims vs 20”. Perhaps it will offset the loss from the small 2” lift which should be very negligible in the first place.
From the research I’ve done offset and tire width are big determinants of range. The aero design is somewhat meaning full but the bigger issue is how much tire surface is exposed to generate resistance. The lift will expose a bit of tire height but not a lot so range has a modest impact...
