It wasn't meant to make you think the parking lot was only F150s or others. It was to dispute the point the author was making. The # of "heavy" battery cars, are an issue that we were already facing due to the weight of our best selling vehicles already. Their intent of using battery cars as the catalyst for destruction of the roads in disingenuous. I am and am not a fan of the electric car all at once. I am a fan in that IF you can get one with a bunch of life cheaply, than you can make out like a bandit. Let those other idiots buy them off the lots, and eat the depreciation. I paid 8k for a used fiat electric in 19, when my worked changed to an office downtown. That tiny electric shit box, goes for 70-90 miles and dies. That is far enough to go work and home, with a stop on the way to grab groceries or something. It saves me tons of mileage on other vehicles. Last year I put 7K miles on it, and only 4 on my truck. I've been doing the same 7 or 8k per year on it, since i bought it. Which has cut 7-8K worth of gasoline and maintenance on my ICE vehicles. So for 8K I found an amazing deal. Those are few, and very far between. Miraculously, most of the big car places still offer 5K on that car. I am seriously considering selling. It is almost time for battery death from years. Would I own an electric car as my only transport? Absolutely not. Would I buy a brand new electric car? Absolutely not. Would I after inspecting battery life buy one that was a really good deal to replace the one I tear up now when it dies? Depends on the cost, versus battery life, versus ICE costs, at that time. Mostly leaning towards no unless its an amazing deal like I got before. Which are mostly gone. Can they be useful? Absolutely in niche scenarios. Like my driving in the HOV lane to and from work or quick errands. Should they be pushed by gov or anything else? Absolutely not. They are not really ready to compete with ICE. Until we solve for battery replacement costs.
