00:00Ford F-150 pickup truck.
00:02How many do you think they sell in America?
00:05I know it's a lot.
00:06It's 2,500 a day.
00:07And Ford has decided, amazingly, they'd like to sell more,
00:11so they're about to introduce a hybrid F-150 pickup truck.
00:15I can't imagine that F-150 owners are very interested in a hybrid.
00:18I don't think they know what it is.
00:20They've actually done some research over there.
00:21F-150 customers, when asked,
00:23list fuel consumption as the 28th most important thing.
00:27I can't think of 27 things on a car.
00:30Well, hold on. Looks, power, price...
00:33Size of the load bay thing at the back, weight...
00:35What else is more important?
00:38Gun rack.
00:39Somewhere for my gun!
00:40If they're saying that fuel consumption doesn't matter,
00:42why then are Ford making a hybrid at all? Why are they?
00:45Ah, well, now...
00:46It's because of the environmental rules that Obama brought in.
00:49But Ford are saying the batteries, they're part of the hybrid system, OK?
00:52But they are for charging up your mitre saw,
00:55cooling beer and running the coffee maker on a camping trip.
