I would think CAFE would help them in this case, as the F-250 is not counted in CAFE by being "10,000GVWR or over." F-250 don't get rated for EPA fuel economy. It would help them to push people into F-250 to sell less F-150 proportional to their CAFE totals. Unless that's what you were saying? I can't tell.Pretty certain that the decision is not Ford's to make; that they are hamstrung by CAFE standards and the F-150 is impacted by this, along with the unintended consequences of people going with the 12MPG Superduty, instead of a 16MPG fully optioned out F-150.
ThisDon't forget what payload is. You start adding all the gizmos and fancy stuff of the higher trims and it starts taking away from that payload. To me, thats a big reason why its only offered in the lower trim models.
I would have loved the HDPP on my Power Boost. The PB's are cargo capacity challenged from the beginning.Thanks. If you are right, that is still ridiculously myopic. There are many who simply will not buy a super duty and would rather adjust payload than kick it up to super duty for a variety of reasons. What they are missing is that these same people would, however, gladly pay for the HDPP upgrade. I guess I will have to put this in the same category as the reason they refuse to tell you specific payload as built online (though they could very easily do so). Exceedingly frustrating and stupid.
yeah, I would have loved to add HDPP to my 302a Sport PB 157" so I could have another ~700 lbs of payload.I would have loved the HDPP on my Power Boost. The PB's are cargo capacity challenged from the beginning.
That I would have bought.I think if Ford made the F-150 Hybrid a 30kWh plug-in (like the Lincoln) it would take away Lightning sales (and generally be a better truck for long distance and towing even with only 1.5kWh and a 40hp motor.
Yep. I'd be in the queue. I would have loved to have HDPP on a 302a. Still not sure why you can't. You used to be able to get a 500a Lariat HDPP.....Thanks.

Sure would be nice. The better headlights, and heated/cooled seats would be a welcome upgrade over the 301a.Yep. I'd be in the queue. I would have loved to have HDPP on a 302a. Still not sure why you can't. You used to be able to get a 500a Lariat HDPP.....
PB also has 3 leaf springs like the HDPP.
Coming in way late on this, but was reading this thread and saw your profile pic. See my username? My truck name is “Rocinanate” in the ford pass app, and I have always wanted to give my girl an exterior detail that only fans of the show would notice, and I really like your logo subtly placed on the back window. I wanted to put “TACHI” on the roof in white or something like that, but there aren’t that many options for buying vinyls online because it is a smaller fan base compared to something like Star Wars.Hybrid battery packs are heavy. I absolutely believe that the battery alone is probably 500lb by itself. Also the added weight of the additional cooling the battery system needs should also be considered.
You are the first person to get it! My truck's name Bobby, hotspot is "MCRN-Tightbeam-Relay" lol.Coming in way late on this, but was reading this thread and saw your profile pic. See my username?
