Looks like you have to get the Super Crew Cab, but the base XL two wheel drive with nothing else but the hybrid drive train and 7.2kW package MSRP is $44,500.

I have a ‘21 F-150 4x4 Powerboost. I primarily bought it because of the improved city mileage (24 claimed). It didn’t hurt that the truck had everything else I wanted.

I didn’t even realize it had the 2.4kw generator when I bought it. I can see a use on a job site or while camping, but not in an emergency situation. I think that much idling would be bad for the engine.

I will say that the power and acceleration are fantastic. It doesn’t hurt that it has 3.73 gearing. The only thing I wish I could do is put in electric only mode, but I understand why they didn’t allow that.

I ran the ford configurator and its $4K to get the generator on a truck that I might buy. That is beyond crazy IMO to get 7KW of power. And the $3.3K for the underlying hybrid will literally never pay for itself for all but a tiny,tiny percentage of drivers.
