Seriously, a full-figured rider will benefit even more from the instant torque than a waif. The engine does not need to spool up to a few thousand rpms have get the strength to move you--it jumps instantly. This will be a big advantage for the Ford F150 EV in terms of towing power.

As a lover of window shopping, you should go get a "touchless" test drive of a Tesla 3 or Y to feel this, just for fun, bring the kids (and pick up those new knives while you're at the mall!)

Ha! I wish! I have really fallen in love. I do think you're right about the PWCs--we are still a few years away from them being viable. But even as a person who prized his Barracuda and a string of BMWs, there's no way gas cars can compete on performance.
