On the other hand it has 7 electric motors: 3 on the front axle and 4 on the rear.

So just enough battery to power 1400 HP for a quarter-mile run and then cruise slowly to the charging station.

Or maybe enough to set a new world top speed record?

I know Ford is just trying to make a statement for marketing purposes, much like an electric F-150 towing a train, but these stunts could backfire if perceived as acts of desperation.

Instead of towing a train, I’d rather see an F-150 EV tow a real camper a reasonable distance on real Interstates at normal speeds. That would be far more significant to me at an engineering level.
