In-Person Lightning Impressions - From a XLT Order Holder (w/ Photos & Door Payload Sticker) [San Antonio Event]

[REDHORSECA]

The Pro truck that TFL had had push to start, so I am guessing it is everywhere

Was it a PRO ER?

Ok, as an XLT order I need to know...
I see the console is not cloth, what about the door panel inserts? I will be ordering Katzkins the day it comes in. What is the bed finish without the liner? I have never seen one without. Last, 312A shows signature rear lighting and the bigger screen on the spec sheet, has this ever been confirmed?

The one TFL looked at was a Pro ER. The Pro Sr that Redline Reviews looked at also had push-button start. I don’t think any EV uses a ignition key.

Also for you F150 experts, as I have never had one, are the XLT Lightning seats the same seats as other XLT or F150?

Based on the battery remaining and range in this picture, I would assume Pro SR.

I do have two pictures of the XLT door interior, here you go:

Sure looks like it's not cloth. I'll probobly match the dark and light grays with blue stitching.

I see Push to Start on these XLT ER.

I wonder if the base trim XLT with Max Tow, Tech Tow, 9.6 kW, and tailgate step work surface will also be Push to Start?

No biggie for me though. The manual key will be more difficult for car thieves to use the FOB radiofrequency boosters to open the door and Push to Start the truck to steal them.

Go read the owner's manual under Starting and Powering Off (pg 194). All models have push button power, since it doesn't say "If equipped" on the page. Intelligent Access is a different option

There’s a different pattern on the fabric but they look the same as my XLT otherwise.

Good, I can have a standard Katzkins pattern.

Good, I can have a standard Katzkins pattern.

That’s my plan as well.

As a funny aside, after uncovering the scoop on XLT SR 0-60, I asked the Ford powertrain engineer how it compares to the EV Bronco specs. If she wasn't so astute, I might have broke the biggest Ford story on the internet, she saw through my trickery.

That’s my plan as well.

Katzkin XLT here as well.

Katzkin FTW

I haven't had the opportunity to place an order but I'm disappointed that the pro doesn't have the interior work surface (this is a work truck) and also that it doesn't have SiriusXM available.
Although it's less important to me, it also seems silly that a $40k+ vehicle doesn't have the intelligent access feature when my 8 year old, $25k Prius C has this.
Also on the mach-e, blue cruise available on all trims, standard on about half. I wish it was available on the Pro and XLT.
