Ford F-150 Lightning EV joins the U.S. Forest Service
Initially, the trucks are to audition in Pennsylvania’s Allegheny National Forest, Michigan’s Huron-Manistee National Forest, and the White Mountains National Forest in New Hampshire. The Forest Service is aiming to test how they’ll cope in remote areas and in extreme weather conditions.
The agency, which is the component of the U.S. Department of Agriculture that administers the nation's 154 national forests, has high hopes for EVs. With a fleet of more than 8,700 light trucks currently in service across the country, electric models will be put into the fleet as older ICE trucks are retired, the agency says.
