Did this guy do ANY research before he dropped 85K (in USD) on that F-150???

He thought he could go camping way off road in it? Did he plan to bring a 5 gallon container of electricity to refuel the truck?

He decided to road trip through vast western states where charging is very limited? Did he even look at a charging map?

Now, he thinks it's a 'scam'...because he can't figure it out.

It's not a scam. It's just not for everyone's situation at this moment in time. I did my research (before spending about 50k LESS than he did  ) and got the right (used) vehicle for me. I have a PHEV, a 2017 Chevy Volt, which I charge at home. I am using about 2/3 less gas on my long commute (I get about 45-50 miles on the battery on my 75 mile RT commute). I did some basic research before I got this.

Of course, some Fox watcher at work, first day I drove it, said 'aren't you worried its going to catch fire?'  I'm like dude you have never seen a ICE on fire? They do that, no I'm not worried.[/quote]
I think he had reasonable expectations 
What is so wrong with going on a road trip?
Obviously he was not told everything he needed to know
