      POWERFUL DESIGN
      When we partnered with award-winning design firm, Huge Design, they intended to craft the motorcycle of the future. The future has officially arrived. The FXE is both breathtaking in its profile as it is record-breaking in its performance. Such a combination of style and technology creates an experience that has never been seen in motorcycling, and only could have come from the worldwide leader in electric motorcycles and powertrains. The future has arrived.

                        But I thought that the main "Green House gas" that they were worried about was carbon dioxide. You know, the gas that all the loud politicians produce when they start talking.

                          Ford F-150 Lightning Has Been Cleared For Landing


                          Until the public unveiling of the Mustang Mach-E in November 2019, Ford was not generally considered to be a serious player in the electric vehicle space. The Mach-E was the first purpose-built EV from the automaker, but just days later in the same hangar at the Hawthorn, California airport, Tesla TSLA -0.5% unveiled its Cybertruck pickup to worldwide amazement. Production of the Cybertruck has been repeatedly delayed and may or may not happen in 2023. Meanwhile Ford kept its head down and successfully launched the Mach-E in early 2021 before revealing its own take on an electric truck, the F-150 Lightning which will begin to reach customers in the coming days.


                          On April 26, 2022 Ford held an event at its Rouge Electric Vehicle Center (REVC) in Dearborn, Mich. to officially launch the Lightning. While Ford had a number of early customers on hand at the event along with executives, UAW leaders, employees and media, no keys were handed over yet the way they would be at a Tesla event. That task will be left to the local dealers that handle the transactions with customers.

                          While Ford’s REVC event was labeled as a celebration of the production launch of the Lightning, the facility has actually been building trucks since August 2021 beginning with low rate pre-production of vehicles for testing and validation. In recent weeks, the production rate has been ramping up and nearly 2,000 trucks have already been built, many of which were visible in empty employee parking lots at Ford offices as we were shuttled from company headquarters to the plant. Now that the Lightning has been released for delivery, those trucks will be loaded onto trains and transporters in the next several days and weeks on their way to customer hands.


                          The Lighting represents one of the most important product launches for Ford in decades. By creating a battery electric version of the vehicle that has been the best selling nameplate in the US market since the 1980s, Ford is going to test the real demand for EVs in this market. Most of the 1 million plus EVs sold over the past decade have gone to customers that can be considered early adopters. But if F-150 buyers are willing to go electric, it’s a sign that almost anyone will.

                              ... Ford has stated that they plan to strongly defend their hold on the F-150 market well into the future with both conventional and EV powered vehicles. On the pick up truck market, Ford has already beat Tesla at their own game.
