So last week Ram announced their EV truck, slated for 2024 and offering 500 miles of range and fast charging.
It appears Ford is going to be the first affordable EV truck on the market, but all of their upcoming competition looks to be more advanced and more capable. It's going to be interesting to see which approach wins out in the long run. First they all need to deliver what they promise, which is not a given.

How does the 2024 F150 Lightening compare to the 2024 RAM?

Just like the F150 ICE trucks, the Lightning will also evolve with the available tech. I would be surprised if the 2024 Lightning was exactly the same spec as the 2022 Lightning.
So, ram had better announce something (theoretically) better, two full model years *after* the Lightning becomes available.
The competition is good, as it forces all the OEM's to constantly improve, or get left behind.

I'd say very favorably considering Ram really doesn't have anything to compare it against, yet.
Talk is cheap.
My Plan ATM is to put a 2024 Lightning in the garage as soon as they start production of that model year. So I'm thinking about 27 months from now? My '15 will be turning right close to 50K miles on it. Gas will be approaching $6 a gallon by then.... not about to wish time away but it's going to be pretty cool. Something to look forward to. Probably drop a couple of Solar panels on the roof.
Life is good.

Ford will always be better than some POS Dodge
