Good video showing the new F150 Lightning chassis and the battery placement. I didn't know they came with a 8/100,000 warranty on the electrical components.

I placed my Bronco order on the 6th day after the reveal and the Lightening within the 1st couple minutes of its reveal . The race is on to see if the Lightening will get here before my Bronco ,LOL .Good video showing the new F150 Lightning chassis and the battery placement.

The battery in my Honda Accord Hybrid is warranty for 10 years due to NYS law.Good video showing the new F150 Lightning chassis and the battery placement. I didn't know they came with a 8/100,000 warranty on the electrical components.
I was wondering the same and why they chose to do a PHEV Ranger instead of a full EV? I would love to see a full EV Ranger in the future.Any reason this couldn’t be repurposed for a Ranger Chassis?
Hopefully you get your Bronco first but at this point I wouldn't hold my breath. lol I thought about getting the Lightning but it's really to big for my needs and it won't fit in the garage.I placed my Bronco order on the 6th day after the reveal and the Lightening within the 1st couple minutes of its reveal .

You are brave. I will never do a reserve or order a vehicle again. If it's not on the lot.....nope. I am a day 2 Bronco reservation holder and on order since 1-21-21. Tired of the wait and all the problems (probably won't see it till Sept 22) so I ordered a Ranger Tremor (wife said I can have both )...now we hear there are build delays for the Lariat package on the Ranger/Tremor....I hope I get it by Christmas. The waiting and constant roller coaster is draining. The Lighting will probably go through the same thing.....I hope for you you get a new vehicle soon as well.I placed my Bronco order on the 6th day after the reveal and the Lightening within the 1st couple minutes of its reveal .

However, the true potential of the F-150 Lightning perhaps goes beyond pickup trucks, given its status as a best-selling vehicle stateside for decades. The F-150 Lightning could well be the most important electric vehicle launch of this decade in any segment, designed to appeal to truck buyers rather than EV buyers.
"Electrifying the F-Series—America's best-selling truck for 44 years—and assembling it at this high-tech facility in Michigan represents a significant step toward mass adoption of electric vehicles in America," said Kumar Galhotra, Ford's president of The Americas and International Markets Group. "F-150 Lightning is intended to be more than a no-compromise zero tailpipe-emissions truck. It's packed with ingenious features and technology that will improve over time, its exhilarating to drive and it can power your home and worksite."
I want the Bronco to do some trails with and the Lightening would be perfect for my everyday to work and around town stuff . I work only 3 miles from the house and tow my tractor/backhoe short distances. The Bronco will not tow the tractor and I'd hate to drive the Bronco such short distance to work and not get up to operating temp so often .Hopefully you get your Bronco first but at this point I wouldn't hold my breath. lol I thought about getting the Lightning but it's really to big for my needs and it won't fit in the garage.
I sold my 07 King Ranch since the Bronco was supposed to be here by now so had to go ahead and get a used 2020 Ranger to get me by for the short/long term wait . I really wanted a Tremor if I got a Ranger but the dealership could not tell me when I would actually get it . The FX4 Lariat is nice thoughYou are brave.
