I completely agree with you and feel exactly the same. I am blown away by the creature, comforts the well put together cluster panel And finishes are spectacular and feel like you are driving a quality machine and brides like a cloud
I also have a 2023 Lightening XLT. I’ve had it about 7 months and it’s the best truck I’ve ever owned. I’ve had an Explorer, an Expedition and 4 ICE F150’s and the Lightening is by far, my favorite!
Great job on the video. Well done!! I recently purchased a ‘23 platinum ER. I can’t believe how great the truck is. Everything you said and way way more.
That red is really a good color. Congratulations! If you haven't grabbed a Tesla NACS to CCS charging adaptor yet stay tuned I have a review coming soon.
Thank you, thank you, thank you! So many negative videos here on "What I hate about th lightning" Got xlt on July 30th and like you I absolutely love it!
just got mine the confort is insane. you literally feel like a king rolling around in this thing. in my other cars i would cramp up after a long ride. not in this thing.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge and enthusiasm with fellow F150 Lightning owners. I’m the proud new owner of a 2023 Lightning and want to get as much out of it as I can, so videos like yours are a big help. Btw, I like the rear seat cover for your dog. Do you recommend it? Where did you find it? Thanks.
Thank you for the kind words. That rear seat cover actually came from Walmart! It was under $30 and I like that it's 2 pieces instead of one. I put a towel in the gap between the two to keep dog fur out of the spot between the seat belts. Let me know if there are specific questions you have that I can help you with. I'll have a video out soon on the A2Z adapter that allows us to use the Tesla charging network. Stay tuned!
Great video. What is the cover that you have on your frunk emergency release button? If you have a link, please let me know. I need one to prevent accidental pressing when items shift in the frunk.
@badtoro I drove it back to back with an 800hp Rivian and I can honestly say I think the Lighting wins hands down. The only downside is range, but considering how much larger the F150 is even that isn't shocking. Thank you for watching
@@KingofKhakis they actually literally basically gave me one.. my gas savings exceed my lease payment.. therefore I am net positive cash flow on this vehicle.. lol

@tomsartain8071 it's really a nicely executed package. Thanks for watching and stay tuned for more content!

Love my lightning. So many people don’t understand!
It really is a fantastic truck. Living with an ev is different but can be great for people who understand it up front! Thank you for watching!
p
Some of them are just jealous, I had a friend look at me and say ( you got another new car with a surprising tone. )
I picked up this identical spec, 2023 XLT SR but in Red, a month ago and I freaking love it!
That red is really a good color. Congratulations! If you haven't grabbed a Tesla NACS to CCS charging adaptor yet stay tuned I have a review coming soon.
I’ve got the exact same but in black. Such a great value! I’ve had it about 11 months now.

@@ve2eivrobert656 I appreciate that and thanks for watching
I enjoy my 24 Lariat. You nailed it when you said you feel refreshed after driving it. It’s the same for me. Can’t put a $ sign on that.
@@etstedjelarsen thank you for watching

100% agree! Great ride, super quiet, big power
I have the exact same truck, but in dark blue… Great video
@@michaelmackey754 thanks for watching!
Me too! Mines the Antimatter blue metallic. It’s gorgeous in the sunlight
my biggest complaint is with the truck being so quiet that the blinker is to loud haha
Hard to be mad at that haha. Thanks for watching!

We’ve got a 2024 expedition max limited, which is nice, but the lightning is actually a smoother ride.
@amandaadler1860 100% agree! We have an Expedition too though an older model than yours
Great video. What is the cover that you have on your frunk emergency release button? If you have a link, please let me know. I need one to prevent accidental pressing when items shift in the frunk.
@nathansuedmeyer3143 thats stock on the 2023 Lightning XLT I haven't added anything. Thank you for watching!
Does 12 inch screen show the map to charger locations including Tesla superchargers ?
@@tp3684 thanks for watching. It shows chargers but does not include Tesla chargers. Those you can program in manually.
I want one but I live in Michigan 😢 and the note is insane 😳
@@RichieColemanSr thank you for watching
Love my 23' Platinum, only complaint I have is that the All Around Camera doesn't work if you're going 5mph or more. So dumb.
You’ve mentioned being on the Lightning forums. Can you recommend a good one?
Did you make a video on replacement?
@whitneynewman8767 could you clarify what you're asking about please? Thank you for watching!
What I love is a truck that costs me less than ten dollars to fill up at home.
@OGParzoval heck yes and it's always full! Thanks for watching!
The entire family has Tesla's and I'm thinking about this over the cybertruck or Rivian.
@badtoro I drove it back to back with an 800hp Rivian and I can honestly say I think the Lighting wins hands down. The only downside is range, but considering how much larger the F150 is even that isn't shocking. Thank you for watching
I love mine 😎
@@rxibot thank you for watching
We need to be able to use the outlets without turning on the truck.
@@JoeyBeez I 100% agree. It's needless to have to run the truck to power the outlets!
That feature just came in an update FYI
Lol. They can’t give em away.
They gave me a '24 XLT - $9,325 BEV rebates in BC & Ford Employee Price
Best truck a person can buy, and it’s not close.
They “gave” me a leftover ‘23 for $16,750 off sticker. 0.0%. Keep hating bud.
“Lol”……Do you feel better now?
@@KingofKhakis they actually literally basically gave me one.. my gas savings exceed my lease payment.. therefore I am net positive cash flow on this vehicle.. lol
I felt this wonderful feeling in my mind, body and soul when she said “I prefer kisluxbag
