ROAD TRIPPING A FORD F150 LIGHTNING? YES WE CAN!

EV Channels Review

This installment concludes the F-150 Lightning's epic road trip, focusing on the return journey without a trailer. The reviewer highlights a significant improvement in the driving experience once the trailer was detached, with the truck feeling lighter and more responsive. A key takeaway is the F-150 Lightning's capability to cover long distances, even attempting a 360-mile stretch without charging, though this was aided by favorable conditions and avoiding problematic Electrify America stations. The reviewer praises the truck's performance and comfort, especially with hands-free driving features engaged. However, the recurring issue of Electrify America's unreliability, particularly stations overheating in direct sunlight, is a major point of criticism. The video also touches on the utility of the truck bed for assisting others and the positive experience with hotel charging and alternative adapters like Lectron. Ultimately, the F-150 Lightning is lauded as an amazing vehicle for both daily driving and long-distance travel, but its charging network experience is significantly hampered by Electrify America's shortcomings.
