I think there’s a very very low chance. I live in Utah and have land in Wyoming. I own the hybrid (powerboost) F150 and use it for its intended purposes constantly. I am in southern Utah and northern Wyoming all the time. There is simply zero infrastructure for electric vehicles in the areas I frequent. I get 600 miles per tank and there are gas stations everywhere, zero charging stations. Plus people hate Elon and the cybertruck is the ugliest car ever made.
- dboreham 3y agoMontana here. If you have a petrol pickup you're considered a bit of a sissy. Diesel is what you want to demonstrate masculinity. Electric. Yeah no.
- red-iron-pine 3y agoI'm in Alberta, aka North Montana. Can confirm Diesel is big here, tho there is arguably a practical need. There is some anecdotal story about how Chevy had a batch of diesel Colorado trucks and they sold out couple hours hour they made them available online.
- windowshopping 3y agodo people in the west really say petrol? east coaster here and never heard that outside of britain
- kylehotchkiss 3y ago“gas” is ambiguous, especially when there are CNG vehicles on the road.
- elliotec 3y agoNo, never.
- ethanbond 3y agoI grew up in Arizona around plenty of macho truck people and never heard “petrol.” I suspect an expat.
- msmith 3y agoI'm going to guess dboreham is Canadian?
- filoleg 3y agoI don’t think so. Been living in Seattle for almost 8 years, spent a lot of time in CA and Oregon as well. The only time I ever heard word “petrol” was in british media.

- dieselgate 3y agoGassers are better for starting in sub-0F temps, thought it would get that cold in Montana but guess it's location dependent

- ClassyJacket 3y agoI think it looks fantastic. It's the only car that doesn't look like every other car. I just don't want a ute, I want that exterior design on a Model Y layout.
- thehappypm 3y agoWouldn’t folks just charge at home? How many miles per day do you drive? I own an EV and I charge at home except on 300+ mile road trips
- tiahura 3y agoI would imagine Wyoming and Montana pickup buyers aren’t particularly representative.
- kylehotchkiss 3y ago600 miles per tank is enviable! I’d love to not need to fuel up so much. What’s your actual milage?
- elliotec 3y agoMy lifetime mpg is just about 20 on the dot. It’s a 30.6 gallon tank. Keep in mind I’m driving through canyons and mountain passes and just about maxing out my payload over half the time I drive. It’s incredible.
