How likely are dealers going to loan out their brand new $80k trucks? LMAO
Very, if Ford offers to compensate them. And Ford should because this is incredible publicity.
I had no desire for an F-150 until today. Now I'm ready for 84 months same as cash financing and an extended warranty.

Its sadly all about the publicity. They are paying over 600 bucks per vehicle which cold have been used to actually buy generators and given to residents to keep.
Whats worse is the article referenced using a locomotive to power Texas' grid the way some small town in Canada did. What they did not mention is that the locomotive could only produce 375 kilowatts of power. This is about 1/8 what a single modern windmill can produce. The locomotive could only power city hall and a few buildings and had to be derailed and drug trough town to connect to city hall.

Now, if only government officials down there would take a lesson from Boucherville, Quebec, and get some diesel locomotives connected to the grid to act as giant generators. That's some serious juice.
