Pics of Lightning Trucks Doing Truck Things. Post Yours! 📸

Lighting Vac Truck.

Chasing a leak on a 300’ poly line buried 32”-36” deep. Ugh. The 3” shop vac works great though long arms necessary to cut roots. I clamped my big grinder to the tailgate, locked it on, put a dull point taper on a 1/4” rod to probe for that damned waterline. I’m to old for this. I found like 4 abandon telecom cables in various states of dis-repair. All less than a foot below the surface.

Towing a Cybertruck (apx 6800 lbs payload + ~4000 lbs trailer).

4 tubas, 5 euphoniums, 2 bass clarinets, conga and a Bari sax….

Transporting instruments for our middle school band. The Lightning‘s ability to transport stuff is insane

As a former band geek and player of both tubas and euphoniums, this is amazing.

Hauling maple sap because the Unimog broke down.

do you know how much that thing weighs when it is full?

It's a 1000L (250G) tank, and 1L of water = 1kg, the difference in weight between maple sap and water is negligible, so full it would be 1000kg or 2204lb.

I only have to move it ~800m but even so I probably wouldn't haul it full in the Lightning, but have done so many times on the back of the Unimog.

Did a late night run to the hardware store last night. I just so happen to have browsed through this thread earlier in the day so when I found myself doing "truck stuff" with the Lightning, I figured I'd snap a picture and share!

That's awesome, Nate! And with a network of lights illuminating the perimeter of the F-150 Lightning, you can always keep working or playing into the night!

That's awesome, Cal! The F-150 Lightning's high-strength frame makes it the best fit for any and all adventures!

Hauling the old hot tub cover to the refuse center along with the pallet and box from the new cover and some other cardboard.
Pallet is 56"+ wide x 96" long. Sits up on one wheel hump a little in the standard F150 bed.

(Would have had to have been loaded on edge if in a Cybertruck)

Helped a friend haul some mulch. There's probably close to 2 yards in there which was prooooobably over weight by a few hundred pounds. ? Gonna avoid that much in the future so I can keep my suspension in good shape over the years, but the truck didn't seem to mind. Will also be lining the bed with a tarp next time -- the one I had was ripped more than I thought before I embarked on my trip. Aside from those hiccups no problems.

I also got the harbor freight unloader to work with some scrap wood screwed together and some ratchet straps since our tailgates are too wide.
