Camping in an EV.... Always charging...
So here is the start of the FLT driving from Sacramento to Ak in their electric F150 Lighting. Just a few observations from me: #1. To put a "canopy" on a truck and calling it a camper is a joke...

Beat that dead horse. Go on, beat it. It's really only mostly dead.
Hit it a few more times. I think I saw it twitch.
Nobody is disputing that you lose range. Either you learn to deal with it or you don't buy this truck. 2030 is a long way off. Plenty of opportunity to kick the can down the road.
Right now all the doom and gloom that is being predicted has yet to happen. A few stupid people can't figure out how to manage their fuel and end up stranded. OMFG the world is coming to an end! Yawn.
I really have no clue what your ranting about. Yes, range is an issue, 50 percent isnt a good loss of range. To take it far isn't really feasible yet. Drive 2 hours charge up to 80 percent in two hours , drive a little less because your at 80 percent , wait two hours to charge to 80 percent again. And that would be if you managed the stops perfectly and they had chargers spaced out accordingly. It Would take me days to get to florida from nj. Might be good for short jaunts. I am not planning on buying the truck, never said I would. Just posting information. Ok, done now, please bring in the next horse.
