Ford vs Tesla

That's the way the top brass at Ford wants us to see it - that the electric vehicle (EV) market is primarily a battle between two titans, Ford and Tesla. Never mind all those other car makers who also are working hard on their EV's.

Tesla is far, far ahead of every other company in the race for public opinion as well as for sales. But big business can be sort of a game, and Ford CEO Jim Farley is willing to play.

Ford's F-150 Lightning is an all-electric truck. Buyers of the EV truck discovered that it had a unique adaptor which, among other uses, can help any stranded EV drivers who have run out of charge. Tesla doesn't have one of these.

One Lightning owner got the point, and posted a picture of the unexpected accessory with this comment:

"Here you go! Lightning to the rescue. We can help all those poor dead Teslas."
