FORD F-150 LIGHTNING: MY TOP 10 LIKES & DISLIKES

EV Channels Review

The reviewer provides a comprehensive look at the Ford F-150 Lightning Lariat after two months of ownership, detailing ten likes and ten dislikes. Positives include its immense power and instant torque, smooth ride quality, quiet cabin, and impressive efficiency (averaging 2.4-2.6 miles/kWh). The reviewer also praises the panoramic glass roof with sunshade, power liftgate, the highly functional Mega Power Frunk, and the versatile Pro Power Onboard system, which can even charge other EVs. The spacious and comfortable rear seating is another highlight. On the downside, the reviewer dislikes the opaque white look of the front light bar, the inconsistent display of the state of charge, and unreliable Android Auto connectivity. The transition in one-pedal driving is described as clunky, and the sun visor has a sun-blocking gap. A notable issue is the torque steer experienced during hard acceleration, and the wireless charging pad is deemed too small and cumbersome. The reviewer also points out the weak spring on the center console lid and the limited configuration options (Super Crew Cab with a 5.5-foot bed), which may not suit all work needs. Finally, the extreme unavailability of the vehicle is a major frustration, preventing many potential buyers from acquiring this otherwise transformational electric pickup. The reviewer also wishes for more detailed charging information displayed in the vehicle.
