This video documents the second part of a family road trip from the Bay Area to the Grand Canyon in a Ford F-150 Lightning. The reviewer highlights the vehicle's practicality for long-distance travel, emphasizing its ample cargo space in both the frunk and tailgate area. The journey includes stops in Sedona, Arizona, praised for its spectacular red rock scenery, and Quartzite, where the reviewer notes the presence of various EVs at a Tesla Supercharger station, including a Cybertruck. The reviewer also touches upon charging experiences, mentioning the use of a new Electron and Ford partnership adapter and achieving up to 175 kW charging speeds. Real-world efficiency figures of 2.0-2.2 miles per kWh are reported, with a notable mention of significant range gains on downhill descents due to regenerative braking.
