Here in SoCal Ill see at 2 or 3 on the freeway almost daily, today, none. One guy in a Lariat gave me the peace sign so now when I see another lighting driver I make a point to acknowledge him/her.
BTW, I just realized I've never seen a female Lightning driver except that one British woman on YouTube.

I just saw a Lightning in a movie. It's definitely the first time I've seen it in a movie or tv show. The movie was "Family Switch" starring Jennifer Garner and Ed Helms. It was a blink and you'll miss it kind of thing.
Off topic but was the movie any good?

I saw a woman the other day, prob 50s. Of course when I was driving my stupid loaner back from dealer while mine was in service, which I got back today, woo hoo!

‘23 F150 Lightning Lariat ER (Sept ‘23 build)
North Dallas area. I've seen 8 to 10 others in the area, but truly maybe only see one a week other than the one two streets over from me. Not as many in the area as I suspected, or I'm just not in the right place at the right time.
Yeah I’m surprised too, I’m in Carrollton but work from home so I’m not out driving around as much and I’ve only seen one a couple months ago, see a ton of Tesla’s every time I’m out though. One neighbor has a Mach-e and the other just got an ID.4.

I got my truck December of last year. Met a fellow Lightning owner in the parking lot who presented me a small toy Lightning replica. I thought that was cool. My wife who was with me and not into cars was wondering why he gave me a toy car :) I do see couple of Lightnings on the road. I was expecting by now there'll be a lot them on the road. People still get surprised when I open the frunk load stuffs especially fellow F150 ICE owners. Always a conversation starter 😉

Every time I leave the house, even if only a mile or two there are easily 8 to 10 Tesla's. Of course there used to be two in my own garage and still one there. One street over a house has two Tesla's, park them both on the street and charge them both with a long extension cord with 110. So anything is doable, just all depends on how you embrace it.

Driving from Fallbrook to Carlsbad (north San Diego) I saw 4. I used to acknowledge other Lightnings, I guess after 18 months I’ve given up. If you pass a White Lightning with avocado stickers feel free to wave 😂

In Charlotte, NC area I've seen probably around 15 Lightnings. The city of Charlotte has a couple driving around all the time. I drive like 4-5 hours around town 5 days a week at work so I have I higher chance of seeing them I guess lol. I live by at least 3 other owners I'm my town

In Seattle, Rivians out number Lightnings at least 10 to 1. In the last year I have seen maybe 4 lightnings. I see 6 or 8 Rivians every Day. I don't think the techies here think Lightnings are cool enough.
While I was waiting on my Lightning I could buy a Rivian in Seattle no waiting, you could buy and pick up in the same week. Probably explains why so many.

I my semi rural town of 30K or so, I see 4 or 5 others, and we're deep in the south. Most I noticed popping up in the last month. Lots of folks I think are more interested as Ford brought the price down, and even other truck guys are curious if anything just for the low cost to operate considering electricity is dirt cheap.
