As someone who at a time had preorders for both cyber truck and f150 lightning, and cancelled them in favor of a F150 powerboost with 6.5 bed, I’m not surprised the slightest.

They both underdelivered on range and capabilities. Lightning has only 5.5 bed. Cyber truck didn’t had published specs with bed size for very long time.

Honestly, if it weren’t Volkswagen and it had better range, I think that something like ID BUZZ would be the best for me (daily driver, occasional hauling + camping truck).

I too have a power boost. Very happy with it.

I want the same exact truck, but with a battery that’s 10x as big (which is still very small for a hybrid). I want a truck that will actually power my stuff without needing to cycle on every 15 minutes.

Having a 7.2kW (240V even!) generator in your truck sounds way more useful than an EV truck, I would go for the Powerboost every time.

I know someone who really likes theirs. It's a decent truck.
