  1. Maryland EV Tax Credit Legislation

    Well at least it will be there for those who order a PRO in the future.
  2. Maryland EV Tax Credit Legislation

    Nice to hear Maryland still has an EV credit, I was under the impression it ran out years ago.
  3. No more Lightning ordering waves for MY2022 !

    Not too long of a wait till this summer. Hopefully they have more Pros with the tax credit effectively gone that's the only one I will order anyway.
  4. Wave 3 Feb 3rd ~ XLT SR

    I think longterm (20 years) this first gen will be desirable by being the simplest to repair and upgrade down the road. I mean parts sharing with a vehicle they make 900k of a year and the potential ability to fit in future improved batteries between the frame rails is ideal. If the second gen...
  5. 2022 Build & Price (ICE model) is finally up on Ford.com

    Have you been living under a rock? The build and price has been out for two weeks.
  6. Poll: Lightning Pro is sold out. Does it change your order plans?

    What happens when the 2023 Pro is sold out wave 1 with only 500 made and or they increase the base price next year? Would you consider going to the XLT+ if your were able to order a 2022?
  7. ? Lightning Ordering WAVE 2 Emails Are Out!

    I didn't ask about wave 1 but I could tell from the response they were mad at the lack of allocation.
  8. ? Lightning Ordering WAVE 2 Emails Are Out!

    My dealer said the same thing 0 for wave 2. I am resigning myself to 2023 even at spot number 5 in line.
  9. 2022 Lightning Pro sold out [update: confirmed]

    If they made this known everyone would have done the same plan as you and it would have been no different.
  10. ? Lightning Ordering WAVE 2 Emails Are Out!

    Realistically I feel like every year until demand is gone they will limit the Pro to push people to the higher trims. That way they can say they still offer it but never have to commit to leaving money on the table. Its a smart business plan but it sucks on the consumer end.
  11. Ford's epic Lightning bait-and-switch is complete (the official "I'm out" thread).

    I'd be more inclined to go for the powerboost if it was more of a PHEV than mostly an electrified ICE. From what I have heard you don't get as much of an MPG benefit beyond start and stop in cities.
  12. After Market Battery Upgrade

    Not quite as easy but in the future when the truck is considered very old and the original batteries are toast I bet you could do that and swap the original battery location doing a DIY electric swap. This is similar to what people are doing converting ICE cars now. But plugging into the outlet...
  13. Lightning WAVE 2 Emails Coming 1/19 For Ordering on 1/20 – Per Ford Customer Service

    Can anyone corroborate this story? I don't want to have to pester my dealer without some certainty.
  14. Pre-Approval Email From Ford

    I received this email and saw that I had been pre-approved on the reservation page right before wave 1. The amount was the same for both. I did not get a wave 1 invite.
  15. Ford Warns Dealers Against Additional Deposit / Payment Requirements For Lightning Orders. Supports No-Resale Provisions in Purchase Contracts

    With the no sale provision similar to what they do with the Ford GT I would expect a bunch of people to now have to seriously consider if they wanted this truck 100%.
  16. Conversion Rate

    Pure guess but I bet its 90% wave 1 and decreasing by 5-8% for each wave especially as trims become unavailable.
  17. So whats the deal with the Platinum Lightning?

    You are paying for the privilege of ordering the cheapest truck available once the Pro sells out. And you don't get the rear lightbar until the Lariat.
  18. Wave 1 Lightning invitation email thread [Update: Emails AFTER 5PM ET]

    I would love it if Ford did at least one each wave for each dealership. But I am a bit biased sitting at number 5.
