Learned everything about EVs in my M3LR.

Had to forget most of what I learned about EV convenience and innovation with the Lightning.

Didn't learn anything about my truck at the dealership and now when I drive up everyone runs at the sight of a Lightning.

The only thing it has it’s a semi real truck and has the EV one pedal driving.

Agreed, it’s a reasonable daily driver when not in the shop. A year and one month and it’s been in the shop going on three weeks.

..Everything else is Stone Age when it comes to modern EVs.

Not a Tesla fan but “writing is on the wall”

Sorry, not sorry!
The Lightning is my first EV, but I’ve driven Tesla’s so I know what you mean. However, I still feel Ford got a lot of things right with the Lightning in terms of it being a very tried and true physical platform married to an EV drivetrain. Yes the software feels like Windows 95 and Bluecruise updates are non existent, but as my daily driver and weekend project truck I can’t think of any other EV I’d rather have.
