Ford, the maker of the all-electric F-150 Lightning pickup truck, has filed for the trademark \u201cF-200\u201d with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, as spotted by the 7th Mustang<\/em> forum user Cobra<\/em>.<\/p>\n The trademark filing was submitted on August 28 and is intended for \u201cMotor vehicles, namely gasoline and electric automobiles, pick-up trucks, sport utility vehicles, and their structural parts,\u201d according to the federal office.<\/p>\n Although we have no way of knowing for sure what this new trademark\u2019s intended use is, we can speculate that it has something to do with Ford\u2019s all-new, all-electric pickup truck codenamed Project T3, which is set to be revealed in 2025 and built at the company\u2019s BlueOval City facility in Tennessee.<\/p>\n When it was first announced, the new zero-emissions pickup was described by Ford CEO Jim Farley as being \u201cdifferent\u201d and that it may not look like a truck but it will act like one.<\/p>\n \u201cWe\u2019ve challenged ourselves to create a truck people can trust in the digital age,\u201d Farley said back in March. \u201cThis will be a fully software-updatable vehicle. Literally every morning you get into your truck that\u2019s built here, it will be better and different, it will learn how you use it. We\u2019re going to send software to it every day, every week, every month, every year to make your truck better.\u201d<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Another cool feature of the new yet-to-be-seen Project T3 pickup (which means \u201cTrust the Truck\u201d) is the ability to export power from the high-voltage battery, at much higher rates than is currently available in the F-150 Lightning, which can provide up to 9.6 kilowatts of power through the Pro Power Onboard system and its 11 outlets.<\/p>\n Farley also mentioned that the new electric truck would be like a \u201cMillennium Falcon with a porch attached,\u201d referencing the iconic Star Wars sci-fi spaceship\u2019s tech and speed, with the CEO\u2019s speech specifically mentioning a truck that\u2019s \u201cimpossibly quick.\u201d<\/p>\n Again, none of this has been confirmed, so we\u2019ll just have to wait and see what the new \u201cF-200\u201d trademark will be used for, or if it will even be used at all. As always, though, we\u2019d like to know what you think about this, so head over to the comments section below to give us your thoughts.<\/p>\n
