    Well I ride dirt bikes mostly…wife likes to build Legos when the weather is too foul to do anything else during the winter.

    If they could get the range figured out (80 miles would be perfect) an electric dirt bike would be kick ass. Something about cruising the trails in darn near silence is very appealing.

    Except one is a full-size truck and one is a midsize. Maybe comparing to the Lightning makes more sense.

    I drive past two Costcos on the way to work, looks miserable, plus never had the need for a 5 gallon bucket of capers. Rather spend more not having to wait. We shop at Albertsons and Fred Meyer, get fuel points there. Not that we need it…guess if we going to shop there, might as well get the fuel points.

    f250 king ranch and rivian basically tow the same, priced the same, similar power

    I am not saying I would take the rivian over the f250 king ranch...

    just saying, the two are pretty damn equal in a lot of ways

    It sounds like you think people who like Legos and Rivians are pussies…

    For someone who doesn’t give a shit, why are you posting???

    Not trying to prove anything. Have other interest than Legos. You seem to the one with yer panties a twist. Hope you can get that brown streak out of them, my wife says soaking them in woolite will help. lol!

    Ford puts the same 6.7 turbo diesel in the F-750 as they in the F-250 and everything in between. I know the 7.3 NA gas V8 is available in the 650, I don't if it's available in the 750.

    I don't know if a F-750 can haul or even tow more than a Rivian, but a 750 is a lot more truck than a Rivian.

    Yeah most people just cruise around in those trucks and never use them for their intended purpose.

    Perhaps if they had been in control for the past 200 some odd years, then yes.

    They also detune those engines too. But yet it is power pissing match when they are in the 3/4-1 tonners. We used to have a Chevy C70 dump, fraction of the torque of today’s engine, would yank around our skidsteers like nothing. It is all about gearing.

    Why does race play such an important role how you value decisions or ideas of an individual? There is a special word for that.... it escapes me at the moment.

    I didn't think it was exactly the same. Lots of people prefer Freightliner and International to Ford, in the medium duty segment.

    I'd like to have a 6.2 or 7.3 Super Duty reg cab, just for simplicity.
