I was seriously considering trading my ICE F-150 on a Lightning (even had my house electrical service upgraded), but at this point I can’t justify the price.

The Lightning has quickly gone from the everyman’s electric truck to something unobtainable for most.

Is that true? The top two F150 trims are like 65k and 77k. I see tons of those driving around. Not to mention F250s and other big trucks.

Tons of top trims? Sure, but only because it’s the best-selling truck.

Nevertheless, the vast majority of F-150s (like mine) are XLT trim or lower.

Moreover, you might be surprised at how small the price premium is on F-250/350 over the F-150 in work truck trims.
