U.S. Forest Service begins transition to all electric vehicles
They may not have great towing capabilities and may not work well in cold weather, so the government's plan is to give them to remote Forest Service employees

In order to comply with President Joe Biden’s 2021 Executive Order on Catalyzing Clean Energy Industries and Jobs Through Federal Sustainability, the U.S. Forest Service will transition its fleet of over 17,000 fleet vehicles and nearly 9,000 light duty-pickups to electrical.

According to Ford Authority, the first step the USFS (which is a division of the U.S. Department of Agriculture) is taking is to test out Ford F-150 Lightning pickups. The agency will be working to optimize its fleet size — three pickups are being sent to national forests in Pennsylvania and Michigan and a forest along the New Hampshire and Maine border.

Throughout the trial, the agency will be piloting studies to determine just how many vehicles they’ll need, how they’ll charge them, and just how much people love (or hate) the idea of electric vehicles.

Brilliant! Just what they need, a vehicle that has a quarter the range and will blow up because they use shitty Chinese batteries. Those guys drive hundreds of miles everyday on logging roads that are barely foot paths. What could go wrong?

Because it will be a bigger fiasco than the Natural Gas vehicles under Clinton in the 90’s.

3times the price, 1/3rd of the service life.

I never thought about that. Just think how rough those backroads are and those batteries being beat up and then explode. Then the forest catches fire...

The ones in cold climates will be useless and the rangers and others will be stranded all over. The range is cut by 2/3rds when around 32 or colder.

Wood fired thermoelectric generator can fit in the bed of each pickup and still have room for a chainsaw and gas cans to keep the generator burning.

That will be fun when the trucks burst into flames and can't be put out. And have to be totally replaced every 10 years.

Electric powered snowplows will likely hasten Yellowstone to close early in the season. Imagine the range the new electric powered snowmobiles and electric powered snowcats will have.

And just think about the usability of the electric powered fire apparatus; such as fire engines, bull dozers, road graders, heavy dump trucks, and electric powered school busses. Their fleet is not all F-150 pickups.
