Thank you for sharing. Love the rubber flooring! And we get snazzy rims too? No shiny bumpers is ok with me, and vinyl seats can be covered. Although I’m still hoping that they’ll offer cloth for a reasonable upcharge. Pro it is for me.

If you’re going to use it for work, and you drive less than 300 miles a day, then I think that is an excellent value truck for the American Worker.

The lightning pro looks visually amazing compared to any other work truck that I have used or seen. So getting one at the price range advertised, that looks like what I see in those pictures, is astounding!

I’m having a heck of a time trying to decide which trim level I’d like to order. An extended range pro is super appealing, and these pictures of the pro just help reinforce how nice it is to have a no-frills truck (there are still lots of frills!). Anything beyond that is an extremely slippery slope for me wanting all the fancy doodads.

The Pro looks very good! Please, Ford, please reconsider offering the extended range battery on the Pro!
I couldn't agree more! I keep trying to tell myself I can live without the extended range battery and settle for the Pro. But in the back of my mind, if I ever have to tow something up to a camping area, I worry I will regret not having the extended battery.

I’m interested in seeing where the 12volt battery is located.

I’m surprised the vinyl seats look so nice. I stopped by a dealer today and peeked in the cabins of the heavy duty trucks and was again surprised the vinyl looked so nice. Is it uncomfortable? It’s easy to clean with kids, so what’s the biggest downside?

Thanks! Great find! Any info on where this event was?
Looks like AMB for the Pro. Not my taste. Rapid red for XLT? That’s pretty great looking.

Biggest downside is they get hot. I have the vinyl seats (and vinyl flooring) in my Ford transit connect and my back gets super sweaty from it. Doesn’t happen with the non perforated 100% leather kit from katzkin. The other downside is they tend to be prone to cracking in sub freezing temperatures. Easy to wipe and clean but the combination of rubber flooring and vinyl seats will give off an unpleasant smell (at least my experience with my work transit connect van).
All that said, I’m still ordering a pro.

Why would it need one? Seems to me like they could just step down the main battery voltage and distribute it among the electronics/lights with a control module.
Most if not all EV’s have a 12 volt battery.
