Despite market fluctuations due to the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, the Ford F-Series pickup truck still raked in 787,422 units of sales and remained the #1 bestselling vehicle in the U.S. for the 39th straight year. If the United States’ favorite vehicle is to remain so in the coming years, the way they run might be quite different.

Electric and hybrid vehicle popularity is on the rise, with 45 of 50 states having legislative incentives in place specifically to encourage the switch to electrified transportation. Ford is releasing an electric version of the F-150 (Ford F-150 Lightning) in 2022.

But will pickup truck buyers really want to make the switch as more EV trucks hit the market? And, if so, where in the country is the transition already in motion?
