Introductions & Welcome Thread 👋

Greetings from Pennsylvania!

The first F-series pickup I owned was a red 1970 Ford F100 with 3 on the tree. Needless to say, the Lightning is a big leap from that truck. I can't wait.

Welcome, my very first vehicles was an early 70's F100 also, but I've had several subsequent to that red beauty.

Hello! Been a reservation holder since 11/21, finally got the order in last weekend, and then miraculously found a 2022 Lariat ER Smoked Quartz mannequin with 300 miles an hour away for 500 off MSRP!

So now I’m one of you

Hello!
I just picked up my 22 F150 Lightning XLT ER yesterday. Rapid Red with the ER battery, Tow tech, Max towing pkg, Tonneau cover, and bed liner.

This forum was a huge help with researching before purchasing.

Reading all these posts, I feel like I snuck up in line. I called around until I found a dealer with a Lightning on the lot and bought it.

I've been looking for an "Everything new owners should know" thread. I found the one from the Mach-E owner that was really insightful about being a new EV owner.

Any other threads you can point me to with best practices, pro-tips, or things you wish you knew?

Thanks all!

Hey, all! We're highly considering a 2022 Lightning XLT so I'll be lurking around to get some ideas for mods!

Thanks to this forum it reduced my anxiety over taking delivery or not. No regrets!

Welcome!

There’s been a lot of people who have received their Lightning already and actively answering questions. There’s a decent amount of information here. If you can’t find an answer In a search, I’m sure people will guide you, or tell you what they know. I love my Lightning!

Hello and how y’all doing?

Ive been here for a few weeks now. I’m a Maverick to Lightning convert. We owned two Mavericks which were very nice and trouble-free vehicles.

I went through the order and wait that many of you here have experienced. The first one took a short five months from order to delivery. (Arrived on my birthday no less. ). The second took a little longer, nine months.)

The dealership offered me a deal too good to pass up (well too good for someone like me to pass up anyway.)

I was planning on waiting for an all electric Maverick, but gave in for the Lightning deal. And she is beauty too, if I do say so myself.
