I'm really curious how their upcoming PHEV F150 does. It is planned to act as a 110v AC generator for job-sites, which is a really cool application.

I can't imagine how incredibly expensive and heavy its gonna be with all those batteries. Like $80k base and 3 tons

Heck, a half-ton pickup is already nearly three tons. I would expect an EV version to be 7000-8000 lb. A P100D weighs more than some pickups.

A PHEV version wouldn't need nearly as much battery though.
