Range is less, and for MOST people, that matters. And why should one have to be a member of a private club to get a base model vinyl floor truck? Odd

Yes, lighting is built in a more traditional pickup truck style. That, I appreciate about lighting. But no way does a Ford base model work truck and the Lightning cost the same. And those tax credits can not be depended upon year after year, and certainly not once EV's take hold. MSRP of the...

The issue is that the electric trucks dont even offer a base equivalent trim level. Excuse me: the one company that does offer a simple work truck trim - Chevy Silverado EV Work Truck - wants $62k for it, and they configured it like the Avalanche, so nothing a construction worker needs will fit...

Yep. That was about the difference in stance between my 99 WJ and my 99 WJ lifted as well. Dramatic difference. Shoulda kept mine as well. Where I was living at the time, I could not.

It's TRUE. I didnt mean to. But I saw the sign for the great divide, thought of "Roll Me Away" by Bob Seager, looking at the young hawk flying staring out at the great divide, and I gaped.

Hello, my name is ThundahBeagle. And I have been a "gaper" in Yellowstone. Sorry.

Housing market stalled here, I think. A 3000 sq foot residence with 3 beds and 3 baths, plus bonus rooms (den, craft room), heated 2 car garage and workbench, 4 or 5 fireplaces, sitting on an even acre, asking just over half a million bucks has been sitting for 2 months over the summertime...

Ha ha! Deputy Gage in the computer "lab!" Love "end of report." I loved seeing the XJ as a police package. Seemed like a perfect vehicle for rural police work. Those were my favorite Jeep rims, too

For a while in the 1990's, the vehicle of choice for urban drive-by shooters. Small enough to fit through tighter spaces than the wide police cars of the day, i.e. better weaving through traffic and down smaller alley ways. Better than RWD on icy streets. And very inexpensive compared to a YJ

Thought of Porsche as soon as I saw it. Yeah. Rally car. Battle car. I do kind of like this. Better than the Mach E

What equipment are you on?

This may have been said here between pages 9 and 15 but early on you mentioned Tripoli Road by Waterville and just now Snow Mountain...I was up that way hiking just about a month ago and I think I'd like to go back and pay some more attention. There was a lot of construction and I'm now...

Nice trip and write up. Thank you. I've been wanting to go to the trains for years, and now I want to see the B-52. I have the Maine map, Gazetteerthey call it, and Mass and NH. The Maine one is always a different color on the cover as the others

Um...that guy may have complained and made a fb page, but I'm betting the fact that the new Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra EVs are basically an electric version of the Avalanche is the real reason for Softopper's decision.

You are not the owner?

Planning issue? Yes, I can agree to that. But leaving it at that is a lot like being in the desert, looking to the guy on the next camel, and saying "you didnt plan and bring enough water? Too bad for you" when the second biggest issue is that a lack of a nearby oasis is really setting the...

Yes. Absolutely true. My driving needs do differ. That I realize every day, unfortunately, ha ha. Sure gives me time to gear up for the day, or unwind on the way home, and I feel I've got a great place and people to come home to, so theres that. Alas, a 10 year old Prius, for example, in my...

OP didnt say EVs are terrible. He said at this time they dont seem to work well for rural areas.

Again good points. But it's about OVERALL efficiency. How much does an entry level Ford Lightning cost? Today it's as low as $55k bit probably more...And an entry level Ford F150 ICE? $38k Right now, that difference in price - almost $20 grand at the base level - obliterates any savings in...

All good points, too. But the "average person"...what's that? Most people live in the cities - by definition high population areas. City driving is supposedly better in an EV. I've got some coworkers who fit your less than 40 miles per day scenario perfectly. They have electric or plug in...
