The flash bundles popular features people wanted. They wanted some of the features of a lariat like the bigger screen without needing the pano roof, etc.

2023 Lightning XLT ER
Off the top of my head, the Flash also has these standard features vs ā€˜23 XLT:
B&O sound system
Heat pump
Intelligent Adaptive cruise control
Large screen
Wireless charging pad
Heated steering wheel
Tow tech package

Others?

I see the Flash as being more of a Lariat without the sun roof and leather seats.
As others have said the XLT ER comes with ACC and a heated steering wheel.

The larger screen is a negative to quite a few.

The B&O Sound System has been, at least around here, regarded as very underwhelming.

All 2024 models come with a heat pump.

Until the 2023 XLT ER's sell out, this Flash trim isn't a good buy.

Large screen is a negative, my XLT also came standard with heated steering wheel, the upgraded pro power that is extra on thee Flash, and the ACC works just fine and in my experience from my 21 Mach-e is far more comfortable and not ping pinging back and forth.

That heat pump could be great for long trips when it is cold. Would be great if we could add that at some point to my XLT ER.

2023 Lightning XLT ER
You folks convinced me. I brought home a ā€˜23 XLT ER today. The deals are just too good to pass up.
...and how is it? :)

No complaints at this point. But itā€™s only been 1k miles. I really like the ride and the power. I donā€™t feel like Iā€™m missing anything not getting the Flash. And Iā€™m really happy with the price I paid.
