I’ve been doing some thinking given the proposed EV credit legislation and the pricing of the F-150L. I’m sure everyone saw the single sheet flyer with the pricing of different trims.

The sheet only has 6 different packages. The Lariat+ had a tag at $79k, which is what I’d target. That exceeds the $74k cap on the new legislation.

Has Ford said they’d only offer 6 configurations? It seems nonsensical to do that. Is that true or will there be complete customization like the ICE F-150?

If there is complete customization, it should be easy to get nearly everything I’d want - Blue Cruise, extended battery, phone as key, etc - in a Lariat.
Any thoughts?

That same survey (which was not final), did offer options on the Lariat to add some things (including everything you listed) as separate options. However, just adding the ER battery to the Lariat pushes you over the $74k limit.

The legislation is also not final and as of now the Senate is looking to kill it, or at least cut the majority of it ($3.5T to $1T to $1.5T). Thank Joe Manchin. We have no idea what will come out in the end.
