Is The F150 Lightning Pro The Best EV Truck of 2024?

Published 2024-05-14
Does the cheapest EV truck on the market today pack the biggest bang for the buck? Can the Lightning Pro even go head-to-head vs. ICE trucks as well? This might be the best EV work truck your money can buy.
Dive into the weeds, and it doesn't take long to see that the F-150 Lightning Pro is the cheapest, best equipped, and most capable electric truck to-date.
Dollar for dollar, feature for feature, truck folk will be hard pressed to outdo these numbers!

    Have you managed to get your hands on one of these - or are you thinking about it? Let me know your experiences in the comments below!
  • Just checked this one on my local dealer' s web site ( Hawkesbury, Ont. ) and they are advertising it at $ 62,890 ( with prep and air tax ) or $226 per week for 7 yrs. They are getting closer to the mass of truckers that don' t make $100,000 per year.✌.

    Thank you for your video. It is really helpful. I have visited one of the dealer in Vancouver last Oct and they were saying it was not possible to order pro trim. On same date we were just browsing another Ford lot and was able to order pro trim. The dealer said I shold be able to get it at the end of this month.
  • @rtkracht
    All very good points! The hp for the price alone is justification enough.
  • I love my 23 XLT SR and I was in the same boat here in BC, could not get a PRO. Could not get XLT for that matter either. But I watched a couple living off grid that got a lightning as a unit to power their home and it is incredible! In reality you can probably spend the same amount of money for 100kW of batteries as the truck itself. It is incredible bang for your buck just in that sense. And the value of XLT is also there just in 360 camera, pro power onboard and the running boards haha!

    so are u gonna trade it for 2024 pro? The biggest problem I have with the F-150 lightning is that it has independent rear suspension, not a solid axle. It might be more off-road capable than the cybertruck, but never as good as the regular F-150. Mercedes solved that issue with the new electric G-class. They have body on frame yet solid rear axle.
  • It's really crazy trying to justify anything but the lowest trim of any vehicle. It's the same thing with cheaper seats and a radio. How's it possible to make a radio and seats worth 30k more
  • The Pro is a tough truck to get. Had money down on one for about 4 months. Ford has/had a stop delivery order on the truck. Truck still hasn't been delivered to the dealer. I couldn't wait any longer and took a deal on Lariat Lightning. Way to nice for a work truck but what can one do.

    And…Now includes a heat pump! Pretty sure all 24s are now coming with blue cruise too!! 90 day trial. Not like us lucky 23s that have 3 years
  • @tofan2622
    Yes it is. The best EV on the market.

    As much as I like all your points, this thing would only make for a good second vehicle to compliment my F-250. I need the towing and hauling capacity of the 250 and it would be better to just have a small hybrid or electric car as the second vehicle with better range. I do like all this has to offer but I can’t justify two trucks.
