Do you have a reservation or one on order for yourself??
F150 Lightening versus Tesla or Rivian
First of all, I am a proponent of all EV vehicles big or small regardless of your EV cost and preference. EV owners have taken a big step, risk, and a change from the norm to invest and change their lifestyle to electric and make the changes to plug in over gas pumps. My wife has had a Tesla Model x for over a year and is very happy with it but I could never get used to it because of the lack of knobs and was just to techy looking. A friend invested in a Rivian which is beautiful, but again to futuristic looking and just not ready to go from dials and knobs everywhere to a minimalistic cabin. The one thing I love about the Ford Lightening is that it maintains traditional knobs, buttons, and just that hardware feel most of us are used to. Also the Tesla Model X and Rivian are quite expensive and when you think about the cost of the Lightening versus all others including the Hummer EV and now the new GMC and Silverado, I think those who are on the fence about going for it should have confidence and piece of mind of the tried and true F 150 line! Love all the above EVs I mentioned in this thread but just reassuring potential Ford f150 buyers that in the big picture, you get a lot for your money in the F150. Not gonna lie, i saw the Hummer EV on a lot in the midwest and thought it was beautiful....until i saw the price north of 150k

ekaddo that was a great side by side review!!! Lightening for sure fits my needs...reassures me that the Ford interior is superior.
Also, the Sandy Munro comparison video shows how Rivian is leaving money on the table. Ford know mass production.
Can't remember what video it was but one showed production at rivian.... and then when you see the Ford videos, you wonder how they can possibly compete. Tesla gets it which is why they do well.Also, the Sandy Munro comparison video shows how Rivian is leaving money on the table. Ford know mass production.
