And it's very informative too because it's got that big screen, very clear legibility. You can basically control everything with that- your climate control, your radio, infotainment, everything, navigation. But they actually added a couple of electrified elements like the big vertical tablet screen in the front that you've seen the Ford Mach-E. PRAS SUBRAMANIAN: You know, they did a really good job of keeping that interior sort of very welcoming and presentable to what most owners would have expect. So in terms of sort of the bells and whistles, the interior, what are we looking at in terms of like cool features inside? Now, your range comes down by about half, right? But that's, I guess- Ford said that's what happens when you normally drive a truck with a big payload or trailer in the back too. I had a $5,000 pound trailer in the back. It's just straight power immediately.Īnd, of course, towing- you mentioned towing. So in my opinion, it was super impressive from that point of view because of the fact that it's no slip. And it can just basically get you out of anything. You can lock the differential in the back. So off road, it was amazing in terms of just the sheer ability to have instant torque right off the bat on rocks, on loose terrain. So on road, it was great.īut I was really impressed with the off road, Brett- I mean, Dave, I'm sorry. They want you to feel like you're actually in a normal F-150, but it's quieter. And let me start with the on road impressions where I thought the truck actually surprised me when I thought it was like, am I in the normal F-150? Very smooth power delivery, quiet. PRAS SUBRAMANIAN: So yeah, we had the opportunity to drive both on road, off road and tows as well in a two-day test that I had. So that's what I want to hear about first, if you don't mind. They care how this thing tows and how it drives off road. Now, I'm curious because Ford F-150 owners, which I know a lot of, they don't really care how it goes on the highway. While the rest of us will have to wait till next year, Senior Autos Reporter Pras Subramanian did not have to wait to drive this baby. Unfortunately for you, Ford had stopped taking orders for the 2022 Ford F-150 Lightning due to demand. What things changed? Will they stay the same?
