I came away quite impressed with the Lightning, though there are some large caveats that will require further testing before I can give it a full-throated recommendation. I spent most of my time in an extended-range Lightning Lariat - which has an eye-watering $81,099 price tag (all prices include destination) - while also towing an 8,300-pound boat and trailer combination in an extended-range XLT. The loaded, extended-range-only Platinum has a rating of 300 miles. Standard-range models are EPA-rated at 230 miles of range, while the extended-range XLT and Lariat are rated at 320 miles. All come with standard four-wheel drive and dual electric motors, and there are two battery choices: standard- (in Pro, XLT and Lariat) and extended-range (XLT, Lariat and Platinum). The F-150 Lightning is currently available in four trim levels: Pro, XLT, Lariat and Platinum.

The verdict: The F-150 Lightning makes the most out of an all-electric truck by combining impressive power and useful innovations with many of the characteristics that make the F-150 the bestselling vehicle in North America. ![]() 2022 Ford F-150 Lightning | photo by Jonathan Earley
