Nothing really breakthrough there, it's just software and sensors. Some features will be dependent on the driver entering the correct parameters such as weight and frontal area etc. A generalzation at best not unlike the mpg and range readout on most vehicles or theinfo you can get with a scangauge. It's not like the truck could detect and know what youre towing. It certainly won't change the actual range you get when towing as much as 2 ft.


I believe the Ford F150 lightning gives you all that info and you can actually buy one now, not look at pictures and drool.....sort of. Thats if you want to jump through a hundred hoops and pay upwards of $20K or more over MSRP.

Please allow us to ask you for clarification.

This is not a breakthrough, but it's a breakthrough for Ford?

Are you against the breakthrough or against the breakthrough if it's Tesla?

It's not a breakthrough for anyone and I am not against anyone, but personally I like my breakthroughs to come with something I can actually obtain / purchase, not something that only exists on Fantasy Island, the internet, or in some idiotic forum thread. How long ago did they announce the Cyber truck? Or the semi as far as that goes.
