1 MONTH LATER WITH THE CHEAPEST USED F150 LIGHTNING! DID I MAKE A MISTAKE?

EV Channels Review

After one month and 2,000 miles, the reviewer finds their used 2022 Ford F-150 Lightning Lariat Extended Range to be a surprisingly good purchase, despite initial concerns about buying a used EV. The truck's condition exceeded expectations, appearing much newer than its 55,000 miles. Key highlights include the massive and practical frunk, the versatile Pro Power Onboard outlets (especially the 240V capability), and the comfortable, well-equipped interior. The reviewer praises the extended range battery and notes excellent battery health (99% SOH), attributing it to Ford's gentle charging and thermal management strategies, which contrast favorably with some Tesla degradation rates. Driving dynamics are described as good, with improved throttle response and a capable BlueCruise system, though the driver monitoring can be overly sensitive. Areas for improvement include the FordPass app's clunkiness, lack of remote DC fast charging limit control, and the absence of a built-in dashcam/sentry mode. Despite these minor drawbacks, the reviewer is very satisfied with the purchase, finding it a capable and enjoyable daily driver.
