We had a 3 day demo truck, which I floored a few times without incident. Nice acceleration, but no drama, or parts failing.

Since we will be getting an EV sometime in 2025, I have been paying attention more to related things, and noticed more and more charging stations around. Pleasantly surprised by how many there are, also can't help but notice how little they are used.

Nice, I was born in Port Alberni. Live just outside of Prince George BC now.

May I ask where in BC you are?

I could see an aftermarket company someday making a battery, that would go in the box of an EV pickup, and plug into the main battery, to help charge it some as you drive. It seems that given time, accessories come along if there is a demand.

We went to town today, we usually do once mid week, shop, and go to the pool for a swim. I've noticed that the pool here has chargers, and rarely see them being used. I inquired about their use today, they are free of charge. So during our weekly swim, we can charge for free, which would be more...

I asked her specifics about it, to answer you, for me it doesn't matter. They built one online at the ford website, in anti matter blue, spray box liner, and the charge cord. The deal would be that when they can order the 2025, which should be soon, they will order it, when it arrives call her...

Thanks for this tip. Can you recommend one on Amazon Canada for us. Thanks again.

It will be a 2025, and from what my wife was told, the order holds a spot, and it will be soon open to be sent in by the dealer. Maybe i used the wrong word, but to me that is ordered. Over decades of ordering class 8 trucks, that was often the same thing. If any major changes popped up, then I...

The wife did her research on what to get, and ordered a blue lariat, with charge cord, spray in box liner, and I think that was all.

Thanks you!

That's awesome! 🙂

Maybe in time 😉😂

Yesterday we ordered a Lighting. Correction, my wife ordered it, I looked around at vehicles on the lot. She is the one who wants it, and i despise salesmen and business office people.

Over the years I did have some Volvos, when I sold them all I had 3 of them, also KW, and WS. All truck brands have good and bad things about them, Volvo are just as good as the rest. If I was going to go buy a new truck today, there is a decent chance it would be a Volvo. A customer who I...

Update: Spending 3 days with the Demo was interesting, and we learned a lot. I was always a bit more skeptical than my wife, who really wanted me to look at it, a lot more than I would have without her encouragement. From the moment of my mentioning shopping for a new truck, to replace my 11...

Thanks. 99.9% of our boating is fresh water, haven't taken our boats to the ocean in 6 years, and that was the boat before this new one.

Thanks to all of you for your input. And thanks Rick for this, I am all but certain that up to the bumper is deep enough. I saw discussion of unplugging the trailer, which is something that I have always done, and continue to do. Out of curiosity about how well it tows, we hooked up our...

At most launches I put my rear tires in 20%-40%, but have had to occasionally back in till about 70% is under water. I change the rear diff oil in my ram every 2nd year, approximately 30,000 to 40,000 kms, and never had water contamination in it. The lightning doesn't have a diff, so that...

Any issues with boat launches, being electric motors back there, as sometimes, especially shallow ramps, I have to back in reasonably far. My current vehicle is a Ram 1500, and I have had to occasionally back in until about 70% of the rear tires are in the water. Is that doable without any...
