Ford teases ongoing electric F-150 development with 1M+ pound tow
24 July 2019
Ford has confirmed it will bring an all-electric F-150 to market in addition to the all-new F-150 Hybrid that goes on sale next year.
Ford teased the development by showing a prototype all-electric F-150 by towing 10 double-decker rail cars and 42 2019-model year F-150s, weighing more than 1 million pounds (1.25 million).
Hey, Ford... how about just giving us a PHEV with 20 kW of AC supply on tap when parked? 3 phase wouldn't hurt either. Contractors will LOVE you.

Another small step for mankind.

Apparently pulling a train isn’t that hard due to the steel wheels and track.
