Well ima still waiting for a look at the XLT, but Redline Reviews has a good look at the standard range Pro. There’s no view of the payload sticker but it shows 2152 pounds on the on-board scales screen.

TFL Video on a $56k Fleet Pro ER with Tow/Max Tow shows the sticker at 8:27 = 2,063 lbs

Link should start at Pro sticker

Heard that too. I think he misspoke as he thought it had the interior work surface as well and mentioned it’s an option. It hasn’t been an option for retail pros and neither has the ER. Maybe he heard some insight for 2023 models having those options, but it’s hard to say.

After watching the other video they did on the Lightning this week, TFL doesn't seem very knowledgeable about the trucks. Roman made several mistakes in the other video. I would take it with a huge grain of salt. The chance that info is public and we wouldn't have heard about it here first is essentially zero.

Does the final implementation of the Pro front seats come with the lumbar knobs? My back is telling me that this could be the deal breaker/maker!

I find it funny ford chose to leave out the folding work surface on the pro's. those trucks are most likely to use it for its intended purpose. how much could it cost?

You always could...with a fleet account.

It's not about cost, it forces the upgrade. That should be relatively simple to order if available, or pull from a junked truck to be retrofitted if need be.

After sitting in the PRO in San Antonio, and getting to see some of the 'difference' or otherwise 'standards' to the PRO model, it's quite amazing what you get in such an affordable brand new All-Electric 'generator on wheels' TRUCK - and it's not the "base" term that comes to mind, but true "FUNCTIONALITY", "COMFORT", "Technology", "Electricity", "Power", and "UTILITY" that stick in my mind, especially if you are really looking for a TRUCK, and not a 'luxury' vehicle.

: )

It's easy to get sidetracked by all the options, upgrades, and comparisons, but I am thankful for just the opportunity to get such an amazing vehicle. Thank you FORD for taking that risk.

The Pro with Max Tow has everything I need. I have no desire for any of the items in the higher trims, as it will be a work truck that only I drive. Just need Ford to make them more available for MY2023 and keep the price within reason. Hello Ford….if you changed your production to be 50% Pros you would sell every one of them ! Not everyone is looking for a luxury truck, some of your customers are blue collar working folk and not soccer moms.

Only if you can get them. The chance is still slim even for 2023 MY.
