Good First Attempt by Ford
I have enjoyed the Lightning since I started driving it 3 months ago. It is a nice soft ride with the independent rear suspension. The truck handles better than most trucks on the road and the driving experience in infinitely enhanced with the out of this world acceleration! Other than windy days, this truck drives as nice as most EV's that I have owned. The biggest con to this truck is by far the range. The stated range on the pro model is 230 miles. I have yet to get more than 210 miles out of a full charge. When driving on the highway at 70mph, you can expect an efficiency of around 1.7 Miles per KWh. In the city, I get about 2.1. This is definitely not a commuter vehicle. For a contractor or anyone that needs power at a jobsite, the 9.6 pro power on board is a no-brainer option. I keep my Ryobi battery charger in the frunk with charged batteries ready to go.
The Frunk is the #1 feature that I use every day. We always use it for groceries or carrying anything we want secured. The low entry is amazing and should be copied by other EV truck makers. Also the 4 110v outlets in the frunk is great for charging batteries while keeping them secure.
This truck is a great first attempt at an EV truck. Once they figure out the range and maybe add some aerodynamics, Ford will have not only an amazing EV truck, but an amazing EV in general.
