What the new lightning should have been

[@daxkindle5154]

It was a letdown for sure. If this were it, it would've sold really well.

[@cleetismcdougall5425]

The new lightning is brilliant. I like choices. Ford dominating and innovating the pickup market is a good thing. The Maverick, Ranger and F series are great. And the new 2022 Raptor is getting the Shelby GT500 engine.

[@cleetismcdougall5425]

@@daxkindle5154 Check out how many 2022 Lightning have already been reserved by customers. Six figure sales numbers before they are even on the lots.

[@iiGingiey]

Imo lightning makes more since for an electric truck than calling a crossover SUV a mustang, when they dang well have a performance nameplate with the Focus they could have used. Would have made a lot of car guys less mad imo, but I guess you have to cater to those who don't know cars since all they will think is mustang = fast Kind if like how Porsche marketing teams says turbo just means fast....

The F150 5.0 single cab short bed is lighter than a Challenger v8.

Hey dodge is all about body positivity ok. Don’t fat shame the challenger lol

[@ShizawnSanders]

@@Knight23able lol, yeah the Dodges are fat ladies but I was more proving the point of how light the F150 is for being a full size truck. That's one reason the new F150 short bed single cab 5.0 10 speed is so quick.

There not short bed I work at ford there no 5.5 there all 6.5 and longer on single cab and yes I have one to and I love it

[@ShizawnSanders]

@@MR.6R80 okay....... well there is a long bed. As far as I know there has NEVER been 3 bed sizes for a single cab truck. So you called the 2 sizes short bed and long bed.

[@Justin-o2g3o]

It did exactly as I thought. Horsepower is close enough to forget it about it. The 5.0 in the f150 has more torque which combined with the 4wd launches quick but the lightweight Mustang is starts to reel in at the big end. FYI, Ford (via Town and Country TV, KZbin channel) actually offers that same truck (brand new 705 hp 2023 f-150 single cab 4x4) with an installed Roush supercharger for $44,998.

[@HerrPoopschitz]

[@andrereaves2712]

Correct

[@Van1018s]

They are same hp. Same weight. One has 4wd and 10 gears. One has 2wd and 7 gears. Of course the truck wins. IMO which one would I rather have? The gt500. No question.

[@voodoodiecast]

@@Van1018s “same weight” what?

[@Van1018s]

@@voodoodiecast yes. That truck in that trim, with 4wd weighs about 4350. The GT500 weighs about 4200. I’m positive the tire/wheel combo and all the suspension changes to the truck reduced some weight, while the supercharger would have added a little weight. So exact same weight? No. But very close.

In my 2018 I could press and hold the traction control button until the dash says advance track off , it's not needed in 4wd and you will get full power even when the tires slip a little. Makes a huge difference.

[@caseymurray7722]

Traction control will still have a faster launch on a unprepped surface. Full power doesn't matter if there's not enough traction and at 775 hp it can't put it all down even with 4wd.

[@tkc2406]

@@caseymurray7722dude no we are talking about our 4wd trucks, you don’t need anymore traction in 4wd but sometimes a single tire will slip and then boom traction control cuts your timing, and can also harm you engine if your doing a WOT and things do go well.

[@matthewhunter6421]

Wait, 4WD gets a better launch than a re Rwd car with tons of power? Who would have thought.

[@ggj1987]

[@guthrie_1]

Trade it in for a single cab F150. It’s 400 to 500 pounds lighter than your ram which pays dividends in acceleration, braking, and cornering. With basic bolt ons, and E85 you’ll be making 400 WHP in a lightweight package. If you get bored with that you can bolt on a blower, fuel system, and ain’t nothing touching you out there besides a Tesla plaid, and certain exotics.

[@deviantarsenal]

Even though these newer trucks can handle more power, it really does seem like the hubs or CV axles would eventually break with a lot of abuse and 775hp! 4WD Auto would be better for this application because the clutches would allow some slip in the transfer case but I don't think the XLT comes with 4Auto.
