First post here boys and girls!!!
Picked up the Pro Thursday evening and couldn't be happier with the truck. I place an order the same afternoon the order banks opened and Ford has been keeping me up to date once the build started, completed (with a picture of the truck), and I have to say Ford did a great job in the pre-delivery process.
Still have to pay for a few stupid dealer add-ons even though the dealer said they won't add ADM to the MSRP on ordered trucks, so ended up paying $2000 over MSRP on a few items that are worth probably $50.
Back to the truck, and boy let me tell you it drives really nice and that's coming from someone that owned and still own a bunch of cars and EV's, including a BMW i3, Tesla Model S 90D, Tesla Model Y, and a Polestar 2 Performance.
I was going to sell the truck as the wife didn't like the idea of me getting another truck as we already own a Sprinter van but after seeing and riding in the truck, she told me to keep it. Already ordered side steps so she won't need a ladder to get onto it.
BTW the pictures Ford shows on the configurator has the truck riding a lot lower than mine so I wonder if those of you that already took delivery noticed the official Ford pictures have the truck riding a lot lower, like 2 to 3 inches lower. And yes I'd like to get lowering springs when available to drop the truck a little.

Congrats & Enjoy!

Lucky you! To me the only thing missing is heated seats. Otherwise it is a perfect truck for $40k minus rebate/incentives.

Congratulations on the new Truck! Thank you for being a part of the Ford family.

Great to have you here and one of our early Pro deliveries!

Welcome to the crew. I test these vehicles for Ford and it is a lot of fun to drive, so much torque

Welcome to the forum @Flashy, are you going to be getting a Lightning of your own? It would be great if you could share any details of your experience testing them.

Congratulations on getting your Lightning Pro @bruce91754 welcome to the forum! Have you reached out to any companies about lowering springs?

When you get a chance share some photos of the truck.

Welcome @Flashy! What kind of testing were you a part of? How do you think the Lightning turned out?

That’s awesome and congrats. I am hopping to be invited in Sep 2022. For me it’s definitely the pro. Besides the price, the big iPad screen in the front is too “techy” didn’t like them on teslas when they came out first with it.
