THIS SEEMS LIKE THE BEST TIME TO BUY A FORD F-150 LIGHTNING! HERE'S WHY I'M CONSIDERING IT

EV Channels Review

The reviewer expresses a strong inclination to purchase a Ford F-150 Lightning, citing current incentives like employee pricing and the Ford Power Promise (free Level 2 charger installation) as key motivators. Having previously found the Lightning prohibitively expensive, the reviewer notes that prices have become much more reasonable. The core needs for the truck are identified as the 9.6 kW Pro Power Onboard system, a high-quality sound system (specifically the B&O audio), and the extended-range battery pack. While the Pro trim with extended range and Pro Power is the dream spec, it's deemed too rare. The XLT trim is appealing for its traditional screen and physical buttons, but lacks the desired B&O audio and extended range battery as standard. The Flash trim emerges as the most practical choice, offering the necessary Pro Power and B&O audio, with the extended range battery being a likely addition, making it the most suitable option within budget, despite a preference for the XLT's interior layout. The reviewer plans to leverage dealer-specific employee discounts, which are believed to be available until the end of June.
