I recently interviewed Aaron Smith, CEO of the Energy and Environmental Building Alliance (EEBA), about his new Ford F-150 Lightning and also his Ford Mustang Mach-E. There are a lot of fun notes and takeaways
regarding these electric vehicles in the one-hour podcast, but probably the items that jumped out to me the most were that Aaron was already using the Lightning’s vehicle-to-load capability, how much that was able to cover, and how quickly that feature spread to neighbors and got them requesting help.
Before talking about the brand new F-150 Lightning, though, we talked about Aaron’s experience with his first Ford electric vehicle, the Mustang Mach-E! The Mach-E is one of my favorite electric vehicles, and Aaron and I geeked out on details regarding the drive quality, the touchscreen, the design, the autonomous driving features , and more.
Getting to the truck, there’s the power, the similar touchscreen, the capability as a normal pickup truck, and the truly customer-grabbing V2X capabilities. However, for long-distance driving — and especially towing — on the Interstate, it is admittedly not the best vehicle on the market. But that’s a tradeoff that’s not hard to live with in many cases, especially with another vehicle in the household for such trips.
Aaron highlighted a couple of other things that make a tremendous financial case for the F-150 Lightning.
