I think this is a great idea. Towed vehicles over 3000lbs in most states require brake application anyway, why not use this braking to regenerate the battery. I think it would be a great solution for RV'ers and may do something to speed the implementation of EV in that market.
I kind of like the hood, side and tailgate appliques. I don't think they would look that good on the CG Maverick that I have in on order, but I think they would look good on lighter colors and maybe the red.
I was originally going XLT with Lux package but I am concerned that the light color on the XLT seats is going to get dirty quickly and drive me crazy, so I went Lariat w/o lux for the darker seats.
I cannot imagine that there would be a different mounting system for a donut. I would put a pretty hefty bet on the system working with full size spares and/or donuts.
Now the question I have is- if you get a hybrid or order the full size spare, will the spare be the same tire and size as is on...
They are priced higher. I was interested in them and actually tried to talk to a Hyundai dealer about them, but they had little information(actually the Ford dealers were just as bad). Hyundai announced some of the pricing yesterday, and they are higher, but the trim levels seem to be higher...
The SC would meet my needs with the exception of the fuel economy and the 660lb limitation on the bed.
I think it is an attractive vehicle(although my wife hates it and questions why I would even consider a "truck" in the first year of production from a company that does not have a track...
I would not pay extra for one, but it is nice for airflow on nice days. I am not getting a sunroof, so it will be a nice addition for non -a/c comfort..
If it were larger, it would be nice with a topper, but most likely not so much, time will tell
It is pretty simple and doesn't take very long to swap out wheels and tires from season to season. An air compressor comes in handy for removing, installing and maintaining pressures, but is not necessary. I did this when I had my CTS-V (man I miss that car). I have loft storage in my garage...
1- Daily Driver
2-Work Vehicle (in sales and cover the east cost) really like the hybrid mileage and getting the roll-up tonneau cover for a faux trunk
3- Home Improvement Projects- Even a small bed will come in handy-speaking of that, I have a couch to take to the dump...
4- Outdoorsy stuff-...
