Vermont Gov. Phil Scott is swapping his internal combustion engine SUV for a Ford F-150 Lightning Pro. The governor visited a dealership in St. Johnsbury on August 3 to pick up his new executive protection unit.
The transportation sector is Vermont’s largest greenhouse gas contributor, the governor wrote in a Facebook post. Scott said Vermont is now the first state whose governor's official vehicle is all-electric. Scott wrote on Facebook that he will continue to make electric vehicle (EV) investments a priority for his administration.
