I currently own a MME, and am considering getting a Lightning. I know over the years Ford has decontented these trucks, is there a good list or spreadsheet here that shows the changes? Were any of the deletes added back in later years?
I'd plan to go used as the pricing is attractive. I don't mind going back to the beginning, but if things look good in the newer models it'd be nice to capture some remaining Bluecruise and warranty. I've seen some insane lease deals in the past, so would consider that as well if they come back, or even purchasing new if the price falls enough now that they're discontinued.
I'd be looking for a truck with 9.6 pro power, extended range, and Bluecruise (at least lane keeping and adaptive cruise, not sure if they come separated from Bluecruise).
I'd also prefer the moon roof, ventilated seats, max tow, hitch scale... but those could be compromised for the right deal. Any options I should look to add to my list?
I'll likely be looking to go with the Platinum, did they lose features at the same rate as the Lariat? Or were they spared a bit due to the high trim?
When looking at the Lariat it seems the higher trim may have more that I'm looking for, but I know it wasn't popular to combine all I want in a Lariat in order to keep the price down for tax rebates.
I'd consider a Flash if it had 9.6 pro power, extended range, and Bluecruise, but I don't think there are necessarily many of those out there. Did they make many of them like this?
I don't believe any lower trims would have what I'm looking for, but if I'm wrong set me straight.
Are there benefits I may not be seeing to the newer models that outweigh the feature losses? Any questions I should be asking?
Appreciate any help or guidance y'all can give.
