F-150 lightning
I wonder if the mud flaps will reduce the range from the extra drag?

So finance director, if you financed, who did you use?
I used a local credit union who was doing a rate special of 1.99% for up to 84m. I did the 84m option solely due to me not keeping the truck through the term of the loan. Normally I wouldn't recommend an extended term but with the rate I saw it as justifiable. I actually had to purchase the truck before it even showed up to keep my rate before it changed!

@kwalt21 We don't have a lot of your order info in the tracker- you said you got it 5 days ago? Did you ever get an estimated delivery in any of your emails/online trackers? Trying to compare estimates to actuals
I only received an email stating the truck was "Produced/Built". If I went into the tracker it would state shipped but then nothing else beyond that. It just showed up at the dealer. The estimate for delivery was May 31st through June 5th and I got it on June 1st.

Congrats!

I had been thinking about mud flaps. What made you decide to use them? Will you install them on both front and rear? If I read your post correctly, the rear portion of the front fenders do NOT have a wheel well cover? If so, is it just metal?

Got my truck about 5 days ago now and I love it! My favorite part is how effortless the truck drives.

Came from a 2021 F-150 King Ranch Power Boost.

Have been averaging about 2.6 mi/KW

FYI: The Ford OEM mud flaps for the 2021-2022 F-150 don't fit correctly. I will include photos of what I mean. The rears don't even match up to the holes in the body.

**Sorry for the photos that look like it was taken with a potato. My S20 Ultra has issues focusing correctly**

What, you waited 5 days to tell us! Are we family or what!!

Looks good in white. I'm on the fence whether I trade my 21 Platinum 6.5' Pwrboost or not. Love your Lightning. Anything you miss about the KRanch?

Every time I see another star white truck I'm convinced I ordered the right color. They always look great. I bet you're the only one in Warren, PA. ;) We always drive through Warren on our way to western NY and it is one of the nicest places to stop.

Every single thing. The Lariat trim feels cheap. Steering wheel is rough feeling to the touch. Seats are terrible looking.

I absolutely loved my PB King Ranch so I am very biased. But I definitely downgraded interior wise.

Everyone who looks at the Lightning loves the interior but I honestly think they say that because of the screen more than anything haha.

I also would have opted for a KR version of the Lightning. Interior is important - arguably more important than the exterior since you look at and feel the interior whenever you're driving. I drove an ICE Lariat with leather last November and I thought it was fine though. It was better than my Model S interior in a lot of ways. Maybe that's not saying much, but otherwise I didn't find it offensive.

Had the local credit union advertised the rate on their website, or did you have to call around to find out about their best deal?

Is it spring up there yet? It’s summer in the Burgh.
Thanks for that side by side photo. 👍
I’m ordering a 14/50 outdoor box today to install this weekend. Delivery estimate is next week but who knows? I’ve got a great salesman but he’s in the dark too.

My Brother is a self made millionaire and all he buys are XLTs and had dealers put Katskinz seat in. The quality of His Feels nicer than the Limited.

So what's the payload sticker say for your Lariat? My thoughts and prayers for your poor hands and the loss of a appropriately padded steering wheel.

Well I dislike you alittle now. I have a 21 ecoboost platinum. I ordered a 22 powerboost platinum in October 21 that's been on chip hold and I ended up getting a ER lariat with a 6/11 blend day. I'm been saying how upset I am having to downgrade to a lariat AND downgrade from a 6 5 bed.. I think ima have to buy both and see which 1 sticks
