What did you replace with your Lightning?

21 Powerboost Platinum Real Bed length!

Any complaints about the '21 PowerBoost? I've been looking for one to replace my Lightning.

Not at all. For us we bought a MachE GT and needed one Gas Hurricane Evac vehicle so we sold our lightning. Absolutely loved the Lightning. Ended up back into a 21 Powerboost limited with Max Recline, 7.4kw Propower, massage seats and only 21k miles. Powerboost is fantastic, isn't as smooth as the Lightning, and the connection between the Go Pedal and the Wheels gors through more steps for forward motion, but for us, 1 vehicle must be Petro powered. Here is the 22 Lightning being traded for an old 21 Powerboost.

2018 Model 3 Long Range. While I had it, it went from a rare, exotic car to as common as a civic.

I feel the Lightning or at least the EV truck will follow that same trajectory

2021 Hyundai Kona EV. I basically bought the Kona for the tax credit but was a decent car unless there was snow

I traded one to get my Lightning. I didn't like the mileage and the complexity of the hybrid setup. It was almost as expensive to drive as the '20 Raptor I had before that, but a lot more complicated.

I am replacing my 2021 Powerboost.

Technically replaced a Bolt, but that got sold back to GM about a year too soon so I leased a Nissan Frontier during their 99% residual deals, was only 18mo lease so I still have it until this fall.

Cool Golf! Is that a GTI?

Replaced my 2019 Platinum EB 3.5 with a 2023 Lariat ER.. So far I miss my old audio system a little and reversing into my garage was much smoother in the ICE (having to backup within an inch of a concrete wall is touchy in the Lightning). Overall no regrets so far at ~ 2 weeks in.

Thanks!

Not quite a GTI, but I built it to be a little better. (ish).

It's an '80 Rabbit that came with a 4 speed and a little 1.5l diesel, but now has a worked up 1.9L TDI with bigger injectors/turbo and a tune on the OBD2 computer that makes it scoot juuuust fine and touch 30psi of boost.

The entire swap (engine, trans, wiring harness, ecu) was originally from a 1998 Jetta TDI that I had laying around.
