After two years, as of February 27, 2026, I remain very pleased. I have 14,500 miles on my F-150 XLT XR. I use the truck as I planned at purchase. It is mostly used on short trips (<125 miles from home), when I do happen to leave town, and I believe I have charged it 4 times using various fast...
FYI, I have a 2023 I bought new in February ā24, and it has about 14,500 miles. I was quoted $3,670 for 8 yr./75k miles, and $4,840 for 10 yr./100k miles. It would start when my 3/36 ends. $100 deductible. Asked about higher deductible and $200 was the only other option. She said the savings...
When I bought my 2023 in February ā24, it came with the charging cable kit in the black carry bag. It contained the cable with the truck plug on one end and the box on the other end that you plug the pigtails into, 110v or 220v. And it came with THREE pigtails. One for 110v and two for 220v, and...
Agree, and thought about that. Pulled the pin on each side and laid it flat on the bed for the trip home. With a slight tailwind and only my display to look at, I could only speculate about what I gained.
A little headwind, I would say winds up to 20 mph. As far as preconditioning, I pulled the charging cable and got on the road fairly quickly. Is there something to be done manually to precondition? Sorry if thatās a dumb question, I havenāt studied it enough.
Researching that now. Looks like I...
2023 XLT ER. Went on a trip to pick up a lawnmower. Approximately 34 degrees F. Started at 100% charge from home fresh unplugged . Small FeatherLite aluminum trailer 3,500# rating. Drove 67 miles and pulled into charging station as display showed 52% charge remained and 45 miles to go. 50...
Thank you everyone for your input. I ended up buying a 2023 XLT XR. Got the -$7,500 IRS EV, -$500 Farm Bureau, and -$7,500 Cash back. Apparently the other program referenced -$7,500 Cash back and low rate financing. Couldnāt take both. I love the truck.
IRS EV Clean Vehicle Credit $7,500
Retail Bonus Cash $7,500 Cash Back (Program #11170)
Simple enough. Here is where my confusion starts:
$7,500 and 1.9% APR on select Ford models
Retail Bonus Cash (11170)
and
$7,500 Cash back
As I read that it appears to suggest a total of $15,000 cash back...
I test drove a Lightning for the second time, XLT XR, 312A and Max TT package. Heās at $72,650 including sales tax after subtracting the tax credit. I offered $70k cash out the door. He told me that Ford insists that there can be no negotiation on EVās, so his hands are tied. Iām struggling with...
Iām on my 3rd F-150 in 31 years. ā92, ā00, and currently an ā11 EcoBoost. All rock solid experiences. I test drove a Lightning to rule it out because I thought I wanted a PowerBoost hybrid. I was very impressed and I want to buy a Lightning. Iām ready now, but I can wait a while, my ā11 shows no...
