[QUOTE="theokayestraptor421, post: 1710231, member: 52889"] I agree, there is no such thing as an EV off-road vehicle. It’s not feasible even if the charging infrastructure was there. I wouldn’t want to go goosing around off-road with a gigantic, mega heavy, questionably-reliable, questionably-safe battery as the only thing that’s gonna get me home. Hell, even if there was a solar powered super charger that was super compact and portable, didn’t cost another hundred thousand dollars, was super reliable (lol as if) that could charge my imaginary Lighting Raptor’s massive battery in ten minutes I’m still not interested in driving that deathrap. Even if it was a full non plug in hybrid, which would only make things a little tiny bit better and a whole lot more expensive. It’s just not a good idea. I wasn’t going to touch the subject, but you took the words out of my mouth. Do some serious research on the history of The Pruis. Then ask yourself if you’re a gambling man. Now imagine you’re taking that same gamble, only it’s on Ford, not Toyota. And instead of a hybrid, it’s full electric. I wouldn’t let my wife take that bullet lol. [/QUOTE]
