Same Lariat demo unit, this time in the sunlight!

Rapid Red F-150 Lightning Lariat demo unit. Also my first time seeing the new EV truck in person!

That Lariat has a color-matched bumper, right? First glance I thought it looked like chrome...

TBH, I don't really like the look of the Silverado EV. It's nowhere near as good looking as the F-150 Lightning or GM's own Hummer EV. It's just that the Chevy's front end looks too much like the Bolt. Not exactly the best look for a large truck. -SG

Finally, Build & Price for the F-150 Lightning is live! Here's my take: A lot of these trims are very expensive, so the Pro is the best value in my opinion. I personally don't think most people will want to pay a $10,000 premium for the extended range battery, plus I'm sure the standard range...

Even with said $7,500 tax credit, the Lightning Platinum is roughly $82,500 plus change. Still about $6,500 over the price of a fully loaded Platinum. Will people accept the extra premium? Given how much the new Grand Wagoneers are going for fully loaded (over six figures... ouch!), it's...

Wow, that Platinum is ridiculously expensive...

Sweet... Eluminator is a sick name... -SG

The Pro looks very good! Please, Ford, please reconsider offering the extended range battery on the Pro!

This will without a doubt be a disappointment for value-minded F-150 Lightning buyers, but I guess that's why the XLT is there.

What's bigger, the frunk or the huge screen inside?

I'm actually really surprised that Ford did the shift lever at all. Given the whole "minimalist" trend with EVs, it's funny they didn't use their rotary dial like with the Mach-E. Me personally, I'm fine with either setup.

They also got rid of the LED light bar at the top of the grill for the Pro.

I like the look of the F-150 Lightning. The front end is very futuristic, and it differentiates itself very well from the standard truck because of it. Great job, Ford. You nailed it.

Does anyone think this base trim (it's going to be called XL, I just know it) will have steel wheels like the gas F-150?

Let's just hope there's no semiconductor shortages to slow this down by then...

Me personally, I think the XLT has the best value. I am actually quite surprised that Ford didn't try to trade out the column shifter for a rotary dial like in the Mach-E.

Does anyone think the rear taillight LEDs are going to wrap around the tailgate? Kind of like how they did with the front LEDs.

Hold the phone... I think the Lightning will get a different taillight design from the regular trucks. The edge of the taillight on the teaser angles to the rear more sharply than the current design.

I'm in full agreement about the tires. If you off-road consistently, a set of tires that are better than the stock all-seasons are a smarter choice.
