Here's my answer, living in Arkansas. Body on frame? Solid axles? Lockers? Missing any of those, not a truck.

Here's my answer, living in Arkansas.
Body on frame? Solid axles? Lockers?
Missing any of those, not a truck.
- xyzzy_plugh 3y agoI almost spat my drink out when I read this as I interpreted it to mean it wasn't body on frame. Looks like the lightning is just missing the solid rear axle, which is fair. I agree: it's not truck.

- NDizzle 3y agoDoesn't need lockers or solid axles? Needs a few software updates to mimic the features of those components. This video is embarrassing: https://twitter.com/ferio_252/status/1723139057314873543 https://twitter.com/ferio_252/status/1723139057314873543
- Always_Anon 3y ago>Doesn't need lockers or solid axles? No, EVs do not require those for the same reason they do not require gas tanks. >Needs a few software updates to mimic the features of those components. You have it backwards: ICE trucks will never be able to mimic the instant torque and torque vectoring that EV motors provide. Rivian is a good example of this: https://www.autoevolution.com/news/rock-crawling-with-a-stock-rivian-r1t-is-a-breeze-here-s-proof-219895.html https://www.autoevolution.com/news/rock-crawling-with-a-stoc... >This video is embarrassing: https://twitter.com/ferio_252/status/1723139057314873543 https://twitter.com/ferio_252/status/1723139057314873543 That's not a Ford F-150 Lightning. The Rivian stock will outperform almost practically every other stock vehicle as shown above.
