I walked the whole line twice... and shot a ton of 360 degree footage that I'll post over the weekend.

I met Sandy while I was there... another highlight of the event.

Cool video but approached cringe territory with the pretty girl comments. There's understandably not much build commentary in this video other than Munro pointing at things and saying "there's potential weight savings in that." He's managed to make a huge YouTube following out of that alone and I was still watching with fascination :LOL:.

I'll still be glued to the screen when they do the Lightning tear down. God help Ford if they used too many threaded fasteners in the build.

It sounds like the Pro has OK to buy then?

Looks like the payload scale readout goes up to 2200 pounds. That's good to know.

Not yet, based on the super early Pro fleet orders that I'm watching.

Sandy Munro has to inspect every one before it's shipped so it could take a while.

Yes, it looks like payload is higher than the target for all models which is pretty great. It will open up a few more options for slide-in campers and trailers for those who like to stay within rated capacities.

Setting the "coffee" cup down in the truck... was waiting for the "oops". 😅
