Planning on getting a Lightning Pro for now, drive it for 3-5 years and trade it in for something nicer. Hoping the Gen 2 Lightning has a Raptor trim level (3 motors, big battery, the works)
CT reservation is there if the "stars align" kinda situation. If they can hit all the performance...
I'm in the same boat. I don't live in an area where cold is an issue, so should be a great daily driver for 3-5 years.
With the lack of used EVs on the market, much less EV trucks, I can't see resale being an issue.
Definitely Iced Blue Silver. Unique for the Lightning and that slight blue hue looks great to me with the black Pro wheels. I can't do dark cars anymore with all the sand and dust and sun
That being said I would like the Cactus Gray color from the Bronco. That and the tan color from the...
Sorry, when you talked about signed documentation, I just wanted to see if anything you had seen at your dealership had certain language, etc. To make it something the dealer has to stick with
But is something like this legally binding? Reading the Jalopnik story with the Bronco it sounds like people got email confirmation and a big markup when their vehicle came in
Do you by chance have any examples of this type of document? Reading some of these horror stories with markups is giving me pause on ordering the Lightning at all. I really want a Pro model to save money and then get something nicer in 3-5 years when they have dedicated EV platforms (and...
Unfortunately the beaches that we enjoy don't have CCS options so we would have to drive 20 minutes in the opposite direction and then hope it's not being used.
We just got my wife one of the new Sorento Hybrids so we only stop for bathroom breaks now, which is fine for me to road trip in...
That's what I keep telling myself. If I take my truck to the beach a few times a year, I'm just gonna have to deal with the inconvenience of having to fast charge the thing, probably when the kiddos are sleeping and have it be a longer day. I can deal with that for something that is going to...
It's all just marketing jargon. Tesla did the same thing.
"Starting at $39k with up to 500mi of range and 0-60 in <3.0 secs..." Two different models and price points but that is the line that makes every website.
Not sure how that is exploiting anyone. Ford wants to lock down that commercial...
I think we should have more credit for trucks and SUVs. Whether that be $5k/$10k or something really crazy like $7.5k/$15k. Have the limit capped at $80k or $100k. That way you can still get a Porsche if you want, you just aren't going to get as much value vs a cheaper car
Only helping cheap...
Heck yeah, I totally plan on doing this. Living in California with all the power safety shutoffs and rising rates, this thing is going to be a gold mine!! ?
Not sure if you watched this interview from a few weeks ago. He outlines their timeline for EV pack production. They are talking about scaling up to the size that can be stacked into a battery pack by the end of 2023. I realize that this isn't Ford's pony in the race, but it gives you an idea...
