, another member of the no-floor-mats club. It's an honest pickup—and hell, it still has A/C and cruise control, longtime luxuries now taken for granted. And if you're eyeballing a Lighting of any stripe, I say you want the extended-range model, which brings a higher-capacity battery that boosts the EPA range figure to 320 miles. Even better, the big battery comes with extra horsepower, 580 horses instead of the standard-range truck's 452.
My plan was to tow an empty boat trailer 130 miles or so to the coast, and then return with 3000 pounds of boat aboard. But it turned out I didn't need to tow the boat, so I just drove around with a thousand pounds of empty trailer. Which bothered the Lightning very little—even with the trailer attached, it could accelerate hard enough to bark its front tires at 25 mph. Off the line, you could definitely surprise the Mustang GT in the next lane. With your work truck.
The flip side of that big battery, though, is that standard Level 2 charging takes a long time. Parking the Pro at a public ChargePoint station, the Lightning required 16 hours and 35 minutes to soak up 111.38 kWh. So you can see why consumer Lightnings with the extended-range battery come with Ford's 80-amp home charger, which, once you get your house wired to accommodate it, can charge nearly three times faster than my ChargePoint.
