, and it cooks. Ford estimates a mid-five-second sprint to 60 mph, and that feels conservative behind the wheel. It's already as quick as the quickest combustion-powered F-150, and there's no waiting on engines to rev, turbos to spool, or gears to be swapped. You put your foot down at any time, and it leaps forward.And that 580-hp, big-battery bruiser? Ford says mid-fours to 60, but it also feels quicker than its estimate.
Getting back to practicalities, thanks to its fully independent suspension, near ideal weight balance, and low center of gravity all inherent to it being an EV, the Lightning is without question the best-riding and -handling F-150 you can buy. We wouldn't go as far as to call the Lightning sporty, but its steering is sharper and its composure vastly superior to a combustion-powered F-Series truck's.Not that you can't have fun with the Lightning.
How far the battery will take you off-road and anywhere else is, of course, a function of speed, terrain, exterior temperature, the amount of weight you're carrying, driving style, and whether you're using features like the one-pedal driving mode. We're huge fans of one-pedal driving, where lifting off the accelerator activates significant regenerative braking. We wouldn't mind if the Lightning's regenerative braking were even a little more aggressive.
Fords money is gonna hurt your brand. “Most important vehicles in history” 🤣🤣🤣 Tesla made it happen and everyone knows it.
Shill.

Reports are the truck runs out of juice with a load!! Take this truck and every EV and shove them where the sun don’t shine!!
Send one to WhistlinDiesel.
Does it fit on a trailer?
Ok . So you're 4 wheeling out in the dirt somewhere. No charging stations. So you gave to bring a gas run generator?🤣🤣🤣🤣
Ford must be a huge contributor to Motor Trend’s advertising revenue.
Same guys who bought diesel trucks because they cost more will love the Lighting.
🤣🤣😭😭😂😂
Haha! Who paid you to say that?
Pull a camper across the country and then come tell me about it
Pulling range of 120 miles is bs, more like half that.
jimfarley98 When they run out of liberals to sell these too they will be in trouble.
😍😍💖💖💖🥰🥰🤝
Fred flintstone’s car was very important too
It's cool and all. And I'm glad Ford did it. But I'm more excited for a ground up battery electric truck from them. But is it really one of the most important in history? 🤔
jimfarley98 Replacement battery cost: $ 35 k. True or false?
Should be sold all around the world.
jimfarley98 Cool, invite me to order one :D
Thunderstuck you mean. In MT you can barely make 50 miles in cold weather and dealerships are offering generators with them to carry for when your batter dies off-road.
Should be offered with a Raptor body kit. It's needs some flares
What good are any brand of electric truck if they barely get half of their stated mileage while towing and typically cost 30%-60% more than their gas counterparts.
I thought it can only tow for 40miles then battery dies
That you can’t actually use as a truck for any length of time.
Terrific truck!
Any reasons behind that?
🧐
in history?
no its not - the Ford Maverick hybrid is 🛻 RWMann
