Belongs in a Ram forum, not a Ford forum.

You should probably learn how to post in the correct section of a forum. Has nothing to do with being bothered, has everything to do with categorizing. That post has nothing to do with the 2022 Ford F 150 Lightning, it's completely off topic. Perhaps a mod will help guide this to the correct section.

There are two sections where your post might fall into the best, general automotive or this one https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/forum17/

While RLXXI is technically correct, you guys may notice that the ground rules for the site are called "guidelines," not commandments. Forums by their nature are flexible things that contain conversations that flow in a variety of different directions. One member a few years ago described it as akin to a bunch of folks sitting around the campfire with similar passions about a specific topic, but obviously other things come up from time to time.

None of these trucks operate in a vacuum, and competition is a bit part of how they are designed and evolve. And if we can't discuss competition in a forum for a truck that's not even going to be produced within the next few months, we'll be missing half the story. You guys may notice another thread a little further down the page started by a moderator comparing the Lightning to Tesla's Cybertruck.

I don't have a problem with discussing other relevant competitive models like the upcoming Ram.

That is for us moderators to decide, not you.

I love all of the competition that's coming online. The Lightning looks to be a home run out of the gate, and we can thank strong offerings from Rivian and Tesla to thank for much of the innovation and competitive pricing that we're gonna see from it. The more entrants fighting for the same market segment, the faster things will improve. Keep 'em coming!

Same with the recharge stations ! This is a huge win if it will happen for the every day commuter especially !

My thought is an opinion is ok and an acknowledgement of an apology to the Mod is also been appropriate ! U know I get myself in to a bind also with firecracker responses ! Tigers prowl !

Alternately, it would be cool if it could color change to red and move side to side.
