Thank God they finally put a heat pump in that thing.

I’ve said it before but MAN I love that closing song, happy to hear it as usual!

[HolyBibleOpen]

Got my flash for 2k under msrp. Ford just sent me a confirmation on my order.

[pierrelabat]

Just checked. This vehicule is $69995 US "MSRP". The problem in the USA is that this price aka "MSRP" is meaningless. It is not what you pay. You have to add the dealer markup and some options that you don't want. About $30000 for this vehicule.
So you endup paying ~$100 000 + taxes. Humm, prefer to wait for the CT.

I don't understand why they made another trim, they are not even selling their current trims. Also dealers still doing big mark ups as of today when I tried to buy one.

[KSHDJack]

I just bought the Lariat ER a week ago and i have gotten a max charging speed of 182kw. In the central US however most CCS charging stations do not support outputting enough current to achieve more than 120kw.

Sorry. Small detail. Audio volume is this time very low, except the music at the end. That suddenly booms very loud.

[rickbonbrake]

When they fighter out how to fully charge the battery in ten minutes I’ll buy one

[lauconsulting]

The cover image says the truck is on sale now, but from fords website, they won’t be taking orders until next year. Any thoughts, Sam?

[toskin]

New comment on old post. If you are interested in one of these, they are 17k under MSRP if you qualify for the ev tax credit (Labor Day sales in the US Midwest).

Started at 74k, finished at 57k

The charging speed is where NACS would help. CCS tops out at 500 Amps. With a 400V architecture like the Lighting has, that maxes out at about 200 kW. I'm not sure what causes the 150 kW limit prevalent in many CCS chargers. It could be a charger limit, vehicle limit, or CCS standard limit. On the other hand Tesla V3 charges kicks out 631 Amps. This allows 250 kW charge speeds. NACS should give a Lighting s 26% increase in top charging speed. Comments below say the Ford Lighting will do 180 kW. Increasing that by 26% gives 226 kW. Any little bit helps.

[tommiefreeman]

Great information, but did not see any difference in the two vehicles other than the price

[TontNZ]

Ford should have called it the Lightning Strike! Much more apposite given the what's going on with the UAW.

[charlesbozonier]

It does work with the Tesla charging network. You just use an adapter.

[richardmarshall]

The added cost to the purchaser from dealer added fees and markups could handicap the manufacturers ability to reach their anticipated financial goals.The previous and current business model appears overloaded with legacy costs and wage/ compensation demands to me.

[brod]

I just got my 2023 F150 Lightning XLT with the 312A package. Not quite everything you get with the new F150 Flash. I believe I could have gotten the Blue Cruise option. But I don't take long range trips all that much, so I just couldn't justify the added cost. I only have 164 miles on the truck so far, and all my charging is being done at home. So even the update the charging system won't be that big a deal for me. But maybe in the future. ;o)

[julesvern-ue]

THIS CHANGES EVERYTHING! A GAME CHANGER!

[aluearc]

I am spoiled by Tesla Supercharger. It’s going to be hard for me to change over.

[claytongarner]

So we can’t drill for oil because it destroys the environment but yet we can mine lithium and cause more pollution getting the lithium and then what do we do after the batteries are no good anymore? Also don’t plan on towing anything heavy in an electric truck miles per charge go way down when towing something heavy.
