Alright, fair enough. We're concerned because you're actually considering how to pay for a potentially $80,000 vehicle and fleshing out how to pay for it including making $5 at a time while wearing out the truck $4 at a time. Its financial irresponsibility thats triggering us.

Setting that aside, EVs are okay for commuting in town. Thats about it. If you were looking at a used $20,000 EV sure nobody here would have a logical argument against it. A $70,000 EV doesn't make sense especially if you don't have $70,000 to spend on it. No, don't drop $70k cash on a vehicle to depreciate, but you should still have that before buying a new vehicle. Again, avoid financial irresponsibility.

What is your actual use case for buying a new vehicle? Is it a door dash career? Do you need to tow a small trailer? Are you just wanting a new vehicle? Do you need a daily driver to get to the office and drive to Walmart on the weekend? How many miles per day do you drive? Why are you looking at pickup trucks?

The quick and dirty answer is the hybrid F150 will get to 200,000 miles and still be drivable so long as you care for it. That EV will not. EVs depreciate faster than ultra-luxury vehicles because everyone knows toward the end of its useful life of about 150,000 miles, you're buying a $20-60,000 battery to keep it going. Its done after ~12-15 years, effectively going to the landfill.
