This is the technical walkaround follow-up to our ride video. We pop the hood and crawl underneath to cover how this classic Ford truck was converted to electric without ruining what makes it a truck: weight distribution is within 40 lbs of stock, payload and towing manners are preserved, and the cab stays quiet with no engine shake at idle. In this walkthrough: Battery layout: 10 modules split front and rear for balanced weight Motor: Tesla Model S SDU on a custom DeDion setup between the rear wheels Controls: Thunderstruck BMS with Dilithium control Heat: coolant loop with reservoir, butterfly valve and Classic Auto Air box for real winter driving Suspension: why Scott kept the stock leafs instead of upgrading If you want an electric truck build that prioritizes comfort and everyday usability, this is what happens when old-school utility meets modern electric power.
