Picked up this beauty today, a Lariat. I was number 17 on my dealer’s list, and they were only delivered one unit this year until this one came in, but they called 2 other people before me and it.

I actually had a contract to buy the Platinum mannequin from another dealer, at 20K OVER MSRP, though they couldn’t sell it until Jan. 1.
My dealer in Milwaukee (Heiser) never charges an ADM, gotta love ‘em.

While it only has the standard battery, I think it’ll do fine for in-city driving, of which I do a lot.
So far, so good. Love the smooth ride and acceleration.

Nice. Which color is that one? I have the smoked quartz and thought it was gonna be blue but all I see is grey when I look at it.

I think it’s called Antimatter Blue, a really cool sparkly dark blue.

What was the sticker price for this truck after all??? ((Since the dealer didn't do ADM on this truck))

Is this your 1st truck? or EV??

Sticker was 72 and change, I guess I got in before the price hike. It has the standard range battery and 510 package. So, not a lot of extras and the lower range, but at the same time it was something I could afford, will be eligible for the tax credit and has enough toys to make me happy.

I traded in a 2018 F-150 Limited for the Lightning. I had put 92,000 mi on it in 3 yrs, so it was time for something new. My first EV and loving it so far. The only thing I’m not crazy about is the duration it takes to charge - looks like it’ll take 12 hours at a local ChargePoint station to go from 50 mi. to 100%. Yikes!

Sounds like you hit the jackpot @Jim Salinsky, congratulations! What's your favorite thing about your Lightning since you've picked it up?

I have to admit, I love the smooth ride and incredible acceleration. Had quite a lot of fun sending passengers’ heads into the headrest when showing it off.
