Ford can do a body in white,to a production vehicle rolling off the assembly line in 36-months.
The new lower platform (body on frame) might be done in 18-months.
The truck could be as indistinguishable as a Kona ICE,Hybrid,and Plug-in EV.
They've already benchmarked the TESLA and know what it will cost to do the modifications.Their analysts will also know the numbers on Rivian and the other competitors.
They know what it costs GM to do the Sierra/Silverado,and RAM,Tundra,Titan,etc..

Hyundai / Kia have already learned the hard way about not having their own gigafactory.
There's some really good jobs to be had! No downside at all,unless your way into pistons!
