Yeah it definitely would have ran a sub 6:40 without that power loss at the end, hopefully they resolve whatever caused that. Insanely impressive overall. Can't wait to see how the learnings from this influence future Ford performance EVs and hybrids that you and I can buy.

These are Ford factory employees who were shown the truck in private. The pic with her in it is the roof of... something. It could be the truck, it's in the same room as the truck they were shown, or it could be another product. But it gives us a rough idea of the shape and height of the roof...

Yeah who knows if it's even accurate lol, it's all piecing together patent images and closeups of stuff covered in tarps. But it is fun imo. A few more of those tarp images, can't make out much, but if this is the truck, the roofline appears to be quite low, even lower than a maverick which I'm...

Sounds promising, I know you probably can't comment on this, or if you've seen the truck, but I really hope design appeal was still an important consideration to the team. Sometimes designers get a little weird when it comes to meeting aero and efficiency targets.

The reason I believe this could be t3 is the only glimpse we ever caught of the t3 was a closeup of a clay model which I'll add below. Notice the pretty distinct line that appears to wrap under the side glass and flicks up to define the top of the fender as it nears the front of the truck.

If this is it, then it appears to have a shorter hood, with a decent sized cab and bed. But hey, one of the many benefits of people not having kids anymore is maybe that leads to smaller 2 door vehicles making a comeback, I can dream lol. The top pic is the patent, the bottom pic is an AI...

Knew someone was gonna do it ?.

I'm apologizing that I can't give you much, but this is basically all we have of the actual t3 design. This is nothing new, it's from the t3 teaser video that was released some time ago, but a lot of people overlooked it. It's a close up of a clay model. I assume the angle we're seeing here is...

Except he cited another example of someone's bumper that detached while towing down the highway. This is a major issue. We all know Tesla is trash, reliability and quality comparable to the worst kias from the 90s, but this is a whole nother level. This is genuinely gonna kill someone if Tesla...

Ford's future product strategy is really smart, let's break this down. They're developing a future series of affordable EVs based on CE1. All we know is a small truck, and rugged body suv will use this platform, as well as potentially a sedan, and other shapes. Very, very impressive platform...

I mean, if I'm selling 100,000 units of something, and then see an uptick in sales to 150,000 units, then my sales increases by 50%. If I sell a single product, and then sell 5 next year, I'm seeing a 500% increase in sales. Sure, the percentage increase is a lot higher, but the amount of...

I'm not gonna lie, if I was Ford, I would strongly consider giving whistling Diesel a few t3 prototypes closer to launch. If t3 breaks, Ford gets some idea of what failure points there are before launch and can address them, and if t3 holds up really well to insane abuse, it's a fucking...

I genuinely can't stand Tesla fans a lot of the time. They're right, the f-150 didn't take the same abuse, it took a lot more and kept working.

Exactly, and if I remember correctly, some of those prototypes were having issues, and people were insulting Ford over it.

Good sir, this has been confirmed by people working within Ford to be what is known as an attribution prototype. What that means is it's the current gen body but the platform underneath is next generation. Brands do this pretty often, testing the mechanical components of an upcoming product...

With t3 coming in 2026 as a 2027 model, it would be hard to justify spending the millions to do a lightning refresh imo. It would only be out for about 1 model year.

For real, I theorized this thing could be a preview of t3. That seems more likely now seeing as this thing literally doesn't share a single visual cue with the current lightning. Whereas Ford's other high performance demonstrators clearly shared visual cues with the cars they were based on, just...

Sorry, let me clarify, I don't believe the racer will have three rows. Rather, the production truck will. I only mentioned that, and the stretched cab to refer to the teaser image, which appears to have those proportional changes, if it happens to be accurate, indicating that this may in fact be...

Would give you some open air fun ?. But in all seriousness, the third row will apparently come with the longer cab, very similar in proportions to the ram EV concept which I linked above.

Respectfully, I don't know where I said t3 was a three row suv. Just that it would have a larger cab with three row seating, like the ram EV concept did. People who've seen it have said proportionally, the ram EV concept is close to t3 with the stretched cab and shorter hood.
