To 60 it is quite fast, but it is 2 seconds slower to 110 than the regular 4x.
So... how'd your order go?
It’s understandable that they’re doing it, trying to maximize $, but I agree that it looks a little shady. At least at some point they’ll have to release the configurator so they can start planning their production runs. They should already know that waiting on congress to do its job is….going to be interesting.
They could just price the Platinum at 80K now. Then, if BBB comes in with a (somewhat) lower cutoff price, they could pleasantly surprise folks that ordered Platinum by dropping the price accordingly. Just wildly speculating of course.
I used to think this, but then the 2022 ICE F150 configurator isn't out either. I wonder if something else is going on. That have to be going into production soon.
You have no proof of this. There's no indication that this will pass before the end of the year and there's no assurance that any tax credit will be included. I doubt this is the main driver behind Ford's decision, but only the people at Ford making the decision really know the answer.
They have pushed unfulfilled 2021 orders of several vehicles to the 2022 model year, it's possible they are having to do this with the f150 as well and just don't want any new orders so they aren't yet making 2022 details available.
At this point whichever one comes out first. I’m truly disappointed in the lack of information from Ford. Not even a tweet saying Spring 2022 Build and Price will be available, Summer 2022 Order Banks open, Fall 2022 Deliveries begin for the 2023 Lightning.
