How the 2021 Ford F-150's onboard generator works
I’m positively in love with this romantic idea that my vehicle isn’t really just about A to B. It’s my aircraft carrier from which I launch operations.<p>It keeps us warm or cold. Powers everything. Has entertainment. Shelter. Carries all my supplies. Having a small SUV in the parking lot of the beach turns my morning trip into a whole day trip with my toddlers napping and taking a break in the shade.<p>It’s what gets me about the supercarriers. If warfare suddenly disappeared, you’ve got these mobile bases you can anchor off the coast of a disaster zone with massive capabilities for logistics, a nuclear power plant, water purifier, hospital, machine shops, etc. Etc.<p>So this F150 power generator thing resonates with me.
