  3. "Gen 2 F-150 Lightning" development leaked in Ford employees' Linkedin profiles

    I agree. I'm 76 and expect my 2022 platinum to at least carry me through the 8 year warranty. That will put me at 80 years old. At that age I'm hoping I won't need another new truck.

    What's great about the light is it's an F150 so most the body parts are interchangeable. The only problem that I can see is after the 8 yr 100,000 mile warranty has expired.

    How do you start PRO POWER if the truck isn't on ?
  13. Storing Lower-Cost Energy in Your Lightning to Power Your Home and Returning Power Back to the Grid

    I'll have to check that out. I do wish they would just let me start Pro power without starting the truck. I guess the new ones don't require you to start the truck to run pro power.
