2023 FORD F-150 LIGHTNING REVIEW - I STILL LOVE IT

EV Channels Review

The reviewer expresses continued enthusiasm for the Ford F-150 Lightning, highlighting its impressive acceleration, smooth ride, and practical features. Key positives include the Mega Power Frunk with its onboard power outlets (up to 9.6 kW), the convenient power tailgate with integrated step, and the spacious, well-appointed interior that rivals traditional F-150s. The reviewer praises the standard 360-degree camera and the seamless integration of EV technology, noting the instant torque and quiet operation. However, the review acknowledges that the Lightning's significant price point, starting around $80,000 CAD, is a considerable barrier compared to gasoline counterparts. The reviewer also reiterates that while capable, the Lightning may not be ideal for those who frequently tow heavy loads over long distances due to range reduction. Ultimately, the reviewer finds the Lightning to be a refined and highly capable electric truck, though it didn't sway the reviewer's wife due to its size.
