2025 Ford F-150 Lightning Consumer Reviews
Pricing
Loving my Lightning Lariat but not ignorant dealer
We purchased it new in late November, 2024. We have almost 6,000 miles on it already, mostly highway miles between SC and Florida with a trip to the DC area thrown in. Having owned several pickup trucks in the past, this one is by far the most comfortable to drive and ride in. Smooth operation with everything at your fingertips. The range is fantastic and the built in navigation system is quite good. There is room for improvement with the navigation because it will suddenly change routes to side roads without any clear reason to do so. Also, the Ford network of chargers is not all inclusive and more than once we have had to find a charger out of network rather than going to ones suggested by the built in navigation. Driving through snow and ice was not a problem but we did notice a lot more accumulation of snow and ice on the undersides of the truck than what we would have seen in the past with ICE vehicles. Makes a lot of sense since there is no heat generation coming from the engine or exhaust system. So, be prepared to knock some accumulated ice and snow off whenever you stop. The front truck is great for transporting suitcases, groceries, my wife’s scooter, etc. The front seats are comfortable. There is lots of room in the second row of seats for three adults. The Blue Cruise Hands Free Driving is super! Not very happy with the cost structure after 90 days though. I might even drop the rating by another star because of the fact that Ford and my dealer have screwed me out of purchasing the lifetime plan for $2499 because of dealer ignorance at Rock Hill Ford, in Rock Hill, SC!! Ford told me they would make it right but then just dumped my complaints and did absolutely nothing!!! Not real happy about it and if there was a consumer complaint department in DC or a real working FTC, maybe a complaint there would get action.
Lemon and terrible economy at highway speed
I have had a terrible experience with my Lightning. It has been in the shop 38 days in the first 6 months of ownership, 20,000 miles. I average 1.7 miles per kilowatt hour and only have 250miles of range if the temperature is below 40degF. It has left me stranded 3 times and Malloy Ford could care less. I already have a wheel bearing starting to wear out. My headlight has been misaligned from day one. I keep asking to have it fixed but they keep resetting the headlight leveling system. Someone was able to unlock my truck with a device while locked in my driveway and stole items. Save your sanity and do not buy an F-150 Lightning
