@@JNSEA i bet the gear ratio means it has better acceleration and torque at the wheels while sacrificing top end speed. Probably a trade-off. I think the Hummer has struck the right balance baring in mind the type of vehicle. All EVs are capable of a much better 0-60 providing the gear reduction favours it.

The R1T in my driveway was $75k loaded. With a 70% charge it ran 11.83@110.x at LVMS in August. There is an owner in Colorado who ran 11.4 at Bandimere. Very few Lightning "Pros" were sold at $46k. Far more R1T's were sold at $75k. My Lariat-ER is being built 10/24/22. It is just over $90k. The "Pro" was not available, even though I was a Day One reservation. So cost is not apples to apples yet. Do not be surprised if the Pro goes up again in price. Note - The R1T tires are ~34".

It's a race between a 3 series and 6 series. Completely different size! I prefer the Ford since it's the only real truck here with a ladder frame so you can do manly offroading things to it.

I definitely forgot about speed limiters until the Rivian started pulling ahead, I was thinking between the aerodynamics it might be able to pull ahead further down the line, but not with that change in acceleration. I've never been a huge fan of drag races but it would be very interesting to swap to slightly better speed rated tires and remove the limiters 👍.

I grew up in the 70's and we all drove muscle cars. My first car was a '71 Barracuda, that I bought used in 1977. We thought we were fast......There was NOTHING you could buy off the showroom floor that came anywhere close to the acceleration of these trucks. A Hemi Cuda would run about 14 seconds flat in a quarter mile. About 6 seconds flat 0-60, and it was pretty much king of the street. To get a car to run in the 11's back then took a whole lot of modifications, tuning, time and money. Really unbelievable that a Hummer would give a Ferrari a run for the money.

My Oh My! Do we have some NEWS FOR YOU! Evidently, FORD has actually listened and is now putting the finishing touches on Jackery-style range extender power packs that will fit in the FRUNK AND IN THE TRUCK BED ITSELF !!! An enterprising engineering student in Northern Michigan saw two of them up-close in the frunk and two in the bed of a Ford F150 Lightning multiple times that were being tested near and about Huron Beach, Michigan during the week starting September 12, 2022. The power packs were seen with four wheels, and what looks to be extending handles and had multiple power outlets including 240V and 120V. It was not possible to see if they had 12V or USB ports. What WAS SEEN THOUGH was a large piece of paper stuck to BOTH POWER PACKS that indicated large printed numbers where one power pack said 25 KW and the other in-frunk power pack said 12 KW. They were seen to be BATTERY-based and NOT liquid-fuel-based! From a generalized MATH point of view, one 25 KW power pack would allow an estimated 30 miles of range extension and the other 12 KW one about 13-to-15 miles of range extension. (Note: one must ASSUME the 25 KW and 12 KW labelling indicates that electrical power output would be for ONE HOUR, they are likely 25 KWh and 12 KWh battery packs! -- the label KW i.e. without the small "h" moniker means that the KW label indicates a continous generator output power rating until a fuel source runs out so I am assuming for VEHICLE USE they are rated for one hour of output). Another two power packs were seen installed into the back when a large heavy duty moving-blanket-like covering was pulled back from the bed. It looked like the power packs were installed via some sort of heavy duty looking clamping mechanism that looked nicely painted and quite well-finished and not-at-all rough nor just slapped together in form. That ALSO MEANS that Ford VERY LIKELY would let customers choose HOW MANY power packs they could buy and that buying four of them (i.e. two in the bed and two in the Frunk) would give you 120 extra miles of EV range which is pretty good AND you get EXTRA PORTABLE 25 KW or 12 KW generators! Since these are power packs, you could remove them at will and just keep extending your range as you see fit. Just drive to the nearest Ford Dealer or authorzied retailer and swap out the power packs for a few bucks for fully charged ones and be on your way! I am assuming they will charge the truck's main battery while driving! WHEN they will be publicly disclosed and sold is now the OPERATING QUESTION! At least we now KNOW that Ford is working on an EV range extending solution for current F150 Lightning owners and for OTHER vehicles such as the likely-in-development EV Maverick, EV Bronco and EV Ranger!

@hanging with Mike, had my Lightning for about a month now. Sad to say a video living with one of these trucks on the daily would be extremely boring. I know you’re wanting pull on the “how hard an EV is to live with thread”. But reality is as a daily use vehicle they’re great, (the hummer might pose parking issues lol). I drive between 50 and 80 miles daily, charge at home. No drama…

These trucks are amazing performers if acceleration is one of the primary concerns. Not so much if you actually need to tow heavy trailers on varied terrain over long distances. I will keep my slow 2006 F 250 with the gas-hog V10. It is paid for.

The R1T may be faster (marginally) but I certainly would choose a GM or Ford every time. The R1T is a midsize truck, with a tiny bed, it's really more of a impress your friends vehicle, rather than a real full size truck, which it is not. Also, what happens when your Rivian has a recall, or needs a repair, or gets into an accident? We all saw the TFL experience with Tesla, which was a nightmare, and I suspect Rivian is way worse. But in general, BEV trucks make little sense for the ways people use trucks. You can't tow with them, you can't do long road trips, and they are ghastly expensive. One thing to note, Cummins is on track to bring hydrogen combustion engines to the market in the next couple of years. They have committed to the 6.7 l and the 15 liter. Everything is the same as their diesel counterparts except they run off hydrogen. This drop in replacement technology delivers a truck that doesn't weigh much more than the diesel equivalent, has huge range similar to a diesel, can tow like a diesel, and eliminates all the carbon emissions, and 75% reduction in NOX over todays standards. The largest truck stop networks are already planning their hydrogen networks. I see hydrogen combustion engines as being a nice transition platform with great TCO for fleets, and for truck owners who want a real truck solution. Sure, it's not available today, but 12 - 24 months is not that long, especially when you consider how long people are willing to wait for a Rivian or a Lightning or a Chevy Silverado EV. Also, I like being able to fill up in a few minutes, versus the incredible long charge times to fill up a Rivian or Lightning. Remember, I am saying fill up, not just charge enough for 50 miles, 100 miles.

God damn! I love this new track! And no having to hold on for dear life toward the end like the other one 😂

Any estimate on replacement battery cost and availability after the abusive driving in high performance vehicles?

Over $20k per battery on the Hummer EV

Looking forward to seeing what Ford does with off road performance electric Ranger.

This video was the best . you guys are so lucky 🤘🤘🤘

What a fun race!

Please do a max tow range test, I have heard stories of guys only going 50 miles with their boat attached. I'd love to see you guys do this test since they are trucks

Not sure they are able to show negative EV truck reviews. If they are being supplied trucks to review for their channel, to many videos demonstrating poor performance may make it harder to get Trucks to review. Just an opinion

50 is probably about right.

From what I’ve seen the R1T gets about 45% range (~135mi) when towing 7000lbs. Not great but definitely better than 50

Wow that hummer is impressive. I thought it would be slower than all three due to the size.

Frunk opening battle reminded me of Internet Explorer - everyone else is done and it THEN decides to open and close.

Great race!

I miss the trx

Hummer is just a giant toy, nothing but insanity on wheels. it's the ultimate "bro, what if we" type of car.

Very capable off roader from other reviews. But most buyers that can afford it will never go off roading

@4:05 look at that wiring job on the rear view mirror lol

Whats crazy is how violent they make those launches look but my awd subi also did a 3.6 0-60

The Hummer EV is so dumb. "Let's make it a truck but then fill up the bed with a spare tire rack".....

I bet the bed on the Rivian is just as tiny. Only the F150 has a decent sized bed.

So what we've learned is that Ford made the slowest, best EV truck. 🙂

You guys really should set up a tripod to the camera can shoot straight across the line for the drag race. Shooting from slightly behind makes it tough/impossible to see the far lane when it's close.

These are all great trucks. Keep in mind Motor week managed a 12.3 quarter out of a TRX so elevation is a factor. Like the speed of these trucks but not crazy about waiting 45 minutes for a charge on the road when I can fill the Ram up in 5 minutes and be on my way.

Been charging my car for over a year, and over 25K miles. It's a Tesla, not a Rivian or a Ford, but ain't nobody spending 45 minutes at a charge station unless you're on Fox News. All of those people do per the stories.
