[RickE]

Ford also said Monday that its all-electric F-150 Lightning pickup will transition to an extended-range EV, or EREV, that includes an electric powertrain as well as a gas-powered generator, and it announced plans to use battery plants in Kentucky and Michigan for a new stationary energy storage business.

It's been real, it's been fun, at times has been real fun and at times real not fun but no regrets! Sounds like the end of a short era for the Lightning in it's current form.

Seriously though, that sucks but I still mostly love the truck anyway. Does most of the things I need to. North America continues to struggle "easing up on gas".

I have always planned on keeping my 22MY Lightning indefinitely. I guess it will become a collectible sooner rather than later.

This right here @Ford Motor Company come on. Let’s bring up the 22/23 user to at least the latest APIM before we go quietly into the night.

The BEV Lightning is just adding to its legendary historic gas sibling reputation.

I would like a check made out to me for 75 grand out of that 19.5 billion.
