All they need now is to offer build n price and actually start building them. I would think the vast majority will be the base model with the extra batteries for the construction industry.

I'm surprised they haven't done this yet. Maybe its due to the shortage of things and just want to take care of that before moving forward?

Yes, I think they are so backed up on other models, they don't have the space to park anymore vehicles while they wait for chips to put in them.

Since these are suppose to power your house, some consideration should be given to coordinating the colors with your house or maybe a camo cover so thieves don't steal it when there are massive power outages like they do with generators.

Man, can’t believe this crap actually happens. Ya, not everyone has the luxury of having enclosed garages, so you bring up a very valid point about theft

Not sure if the average home owner needs to panic as much, but construction companies might need to worry as most of these will be sold to contractors at first. Hopfully Ford has some new technology to keep these immobilized.

They need to get rid of this stupid fob technology, there has to be something better, tattoo on your wrist would be better, scan to start type thing, been around for a few years, just don't hear about it much as it's for the rich and elite so far.
