I've gone electric.
Crazy deals to be had now that they've discontinued the Lightning. I paid less for this than my gas one 7 years ago. As with most EV's it's crazy fast. With the IRS (suspension not the federal agency) it rides really nice for a truck.

Love the title!

Sellout!     

So do you have the 240V home charger set up now too? or do you just use the local Tesla charger? We have those at the grocery store, so I see half a dozen cars (mostly Teslas) parked in the row and in the store doing the shopping. I think the Tesla owners get a bit miffed when they see another brand parked in "their" chargers......

Yes a complete sell out
I'll post a picture of the Lightning towing the mini on the trailer, it will be the yin and yang of motoring!
I can charge from home overnight at $.32/kwh which is $.20/kwh less than most public chargers, and we have some of the highest cost per kwh out here on the sand bar, but it's still way cheaper than gasoline. My 2.7 turbo F150 struggled to get 20 MPG, my last trip to see my daughter in Maine cost me $107, worst case with the EV using public charging will cost around $70. I'm going to see her next Wednesday so I'll have some solid numbers.

I'm not sure a $30 saving is worth it, but a nice new ride is always fun!

It cost me about $200 - 250 in gas to go see my daughter in NC depending on which car I drive, she's about 900 miles each way and I figured 30mpg @$4 a gallon - the other car gets 35.

My son in Phoenix is about 1200 each way so a bit more to go see him. Last time I flew which was overall cheaper since I didn't by food or motels along the way like when I drive. But he now has a spare car I can drive while I'm out there...so flying works out a little better. It mostly depends on whether Southwest has a decent rate that week.
