2023 F-150 Lightning Lariat ER
Thank you for the add, Admins. I'm enjoying my third week with a 2023 Lariat extended range, 511A trim.

I have owned EVs before (a Model 3 for me, and a Leaf for my kids) so know the ins and outs of public charging. But so far, this truck just blows me away. The premium cabin experience, the power and acceleration, and the sheer utility of an F-150 in an EV platform is fantastic.

Hope you are all enjoying yours as much as I am. Looking forward to hearing your usage stories, especially those who have done a level and wheels+tires.

Got this shot last weekend of a 1923 and my 2023 Ford pickup truck, crossing paths while delivering loads to the local recycle center / dump. I had to grab a good photo when I heard the year on the other truck. Born 100 years apart but doing exactly the same thing, at exactly the same time. One powered with a 4-cyl Model T motor, the other with a Lightning powertrain. It was so neat to have these distant relatives meet up today.

Glad you liked the photo! Mine Lightning is Stone Gray Metallic.

If you are going to make this a desktop wallpaper, you'll want the hi-resolution version which I put for download here: 100YearsFordTrucks.jpg

The original post is scaled down for web.

Click the link, then click the "download" button in the upper left. The image will get downloaded at 5711 x 3213 px. Don't just grab what you see on the screen; use the download button.

Now do we think our 2023 Lightnings will be still working in 100 years?
