Somehow we managed to aquire a pic of the least camouflaged upcoming Ford Fathom. I took a screenshot of it. I think an anon poated a link to a video or something. Normie sites having nothing this good. We're not even an EV board lel.

This is the pic all the normalniggers are using to make renders and shit

I can't fathom how much ford dealers are gonna overcharge for this and how many recalls it will have. Definitely gonna sell better than the lightning since there's less of an expectation for towing which battery powered trucks don't handle too well for long distances.

I don't see any reason why it wouldn't look exactly line the maverick

why are you bragging about a picture you found online?

Why would you lie about how much coal you have?

Don't worry they'll paint the bottom black to confuse your eyes like dazzle camouflage

>>29094605
They regularly put the vinyl wrap up that high to camo the belt line. Is this your first spy shot vehicle?

Reeeeee

slate truck is going to be a tough sell if this comes in under $30k. Though, you can get some nice used EVs for under $30k as well. Either way slate truck is a tough sell.

You don't need an economics major to guess what's going to happen. What are they thinking?
>>
>>29097614
They're probably thinking that the economy might be tanking and they need a product in case that happens. Lots of car models from modern manufacturers are allowed to fail, it isn't the 70s anymore where there's a basic expectation that every model at least break even.

its cuz drumpf made oil $100 a barrel

Young people aren't buying their trucks.

I bought a mav and I'm seeing a lot of other 30s odd people in them. Nobody can even afford a house anymore, I only need to be able to move furniture to my small apartment and then again when I find cheaper rent and then again when I find cheaper rent.

They sell a decent amount of Mavericks and there's still no competition to them besides the much more expensive Ridgeline. They'll probably sell a lot of these Fathoms but they'll probably make them look retarded, we'll see

>>29097614
Ford is anticipating Dems to come back in power and go balls deep on pushing everyone to have an EV.
If it succeeds, great. If not, they'll have at least developed an EV platform they can spin up for other passenger vehicles.
>>
I got an email a couple weeks ago to "pre-order" this thing. Who the fuck pre-orders a pickup that they haven't released any specs or renders for?
>>
>>29097614
Mavericks are selling pretty well I think. EV makes a lot more sense as a small truck anyway. For doing tradie shit innacity where you don't have to drive very far on any given day. An EV transit connect style van would probably do pretty well too.
>>
>>29097735
I don't think you understand how wasteful Gen-X is with money. They literally live on debt. A Gen-Xer will just put money in for a preorder and then forget about it if they later decide they didn't want the product.

>>29097614
Maybe betting gas prices will hit $7+ a gal soon and never go down.
EV adoption would be pretty quick is gas was something like $10 a gal.
My house can't support a charger so it's not like care.
>>
>>29097750
You can do level 1 charging.
>but that isn't enough
It probably is, and if it isn't, then $10 gas will ensure you won't be driving enough to car about the difference.
>>
>>29097751
>It probably is,
It's not.
I'd need a minimum of 70 miles of charge overnight.
I make $63 an hour so I can tolerate about $20 a gallon before it would hurt enough to swap cars
>>
wow another cuck truck maybe you can go 199 miles between charges
>>
>>29094605
beltlines have been fucked on trucks for years, it makes them look like the fuckin goombas from the og mario movie or an old man with his pants pulled up to his nipples. I can't understand how anyone can stomach driving one of these abominations every day

They sell a fuckton of Mavericks. I see 10x more than rangers. A lot are base models or low trim models so they are making this cheap ev using imported chink parts to keep the cost down. I think there will also be a mid gate like thing yo extend the bed length. Its also a universal ev platform so they can make a shitload of other body styles and milk it forever like the focus/C platform still in use today with the Maverick and Bronco Sport. With expensive oil the timing was god tier. I wonder if israel tipped them off.
