Video Summary
- The reviewer is selling the 2022 F-150 Lightning XLT, equipment group 311A, after owning it for about a year and a half with 12,772 miles.- It originally cost $55,200 (at the time of purchase) and has a 98 kilowatt hour battery with an EPA rating of 230 miles.
- One pro of the vehicle is its mechanical reliability, especially during winter.
- It is very reliable, starting up every single time.
- An Aluminum body is another pro (though it can be expensive to repair if damaged).
- The Wi-Fi hotspot works very well.
- At 49% state of charge, it didn't lose any battery life after a week at the airport.
- A con is the build quality: the plastic interior pieces can creek.
- A B-pillar rattling noise was found to be coming from a loose door panel, which has been resolved with beetle tape to insulate the push pins.
- During software updates, the user interface sometimes acts buggy.
- The estimated range is overly conservative.
- Service from the Ford dealership was poor.
- This truck suits those with access to a level two charger at home, ideally within a garage.
- The overall Carmax trade-in offer for the vehicle was $44,000.
