Goodbye to all my Ranger friends

[Jml91]

Well the time has come and gone. Stitch was sold yesterday. I had a 2021 reservation for a Ford Lightning, and all the stars aligned and I picked it up yesterday as well. Stitch was a great truck and I will really miss that 0% for 84 month financing. I’ll still be a lurker here on the Forums, and it feels weird not having a Ranger as a 2003 Ranger Edge was my very first vehicle. Thank you all for the tips, tricks, and general knowledge!

Beautiful Ranger and sad to see you both go. The new Lightning is impressive and hope you have just as good luck with it. Do come back and let us know how you like it.

You know the Lightning forum won't be as much fun as this one right? ?

Enjoy that Lightning John!

Thank you so much, and definitely not as much fun. You would think it would be much more.. electric ??
I’m clearly trying to jump start them over there.

Enjoy that Lightning Jim!

It's 0 degrees here and I'm only on my second cup of coffee before I go skiing. Brain is frozen.

come back and give us an honest review on the Lightening after a bit.
there's plenty of articles out there labelling it as shit and not worth the money or hype.
I like them, so it would nice to get a first hand review, and not from some media outlet or social media influencer looking for likes.

I definitely will. My favorite feature so far is the Frunk. I love getting my golf clubs out of it. The looks I got yesterday ?
I plan to do a 3” level like I did to the ranger. I bought Raptor take off wheels/tires a few months ago but want to get a few weeks of stock setup driving time. If range loss is too much, I will revert back as I love the stock wheels. Or maybe I’m just getting old ?

Very nice truck, curious as to what incentives - were available in CA. Now a word of caution - don't bring the grid down !

nice trucks, both the old and the new. i loved driving electric with my Volt, just not sure i could pull the trigger on a fully BEV pickup. hope it meets your needs and i would also like to hear what your thoughts are after a few months of real world use. cheers ?
