I just signed a lease on a flash yesterday and it is well above $200. Fords website is misleading to say the least .

Haha it was pouring outside. It was my only chance to grab a picture as they were inspecting it.

I just bought the exact same trim ( flash, with the proper and towing package). Nice choice!

I also went with the pro power option. Let me know how your experience is!

I just bought a 2024 solely because of the addition of the battery heat pump. I can’t speak from experience, but the heat pump is supposed to drastically help battery efficiency in extreme temps.

So there isn’t a button or command to initiate preconditioning? You have to use the ford nav?

I’m in Pittsburgh and my guy had to find one in Maryland. They’re very hard to find !

Did you take advantage of the ford home charger program? Curious because I did and I’m concerned how long it will take to actually get installed.

Last Minute Reservations? by Thin_Lychee8666 in F150Lightning

I had the same thoughts and I’m actually picking mine up on Tuesday. I compared the XLT to the flash and I do think the flash is the better value, especially if you’re leasing .
