what criteria does EPA use? a/c and heat or none of the creature comforts turned on.

Very impressive for such a heavy truck. It is definitely something that I'm interested in. But I still don't think it's range, recharge time and charge station locations is there for me since I tow a camper.

I hope the aftermarket comes through. If I stay close to home, 230 miles last me a couple of weeks. Vacay to the panhandle or Big Bend? Not so much.

I just can’t justify the (fuzzy memory) nearly $20K upgrade to an XLT when the Pro gives me everything else I want, plus the 9600w genny upgrade with the Max Tow looking at the build site.

My coworker and I were talking about the fact that nobody has one for a test drive...anywhere! He just got rid of his ‘13 Eco FX2 (turbos took a dump, oil in coolant...120K miles...big bummer) and he really would have loved to slide right into a Lightning...if he could just get one to test drive. Now, Ford’s gonna wait a couple of years for either of us.
