Plus the hybrids can function as stand in place generators for jobsites and houses. I know their hybrid f150s can be optioned out with 7200w inverter kits that pull from either the battery or engine as needed. You know how many contractors would immediately jump on the opportunity to not have to lug around big ass gensets to multiple jobsites?

    Yeah, and with a series hybrid you get all the torque benefits of a pure electric and none of the crazy transmissions of a parallel hybrid. Plus depending on the generator it might even weigh less.

    Plus, half the batteries per truck means it’s cheaper.
